This study found that the vehicle of hydrocortisone impacts its absorption and therapeutic effectiveness, as demonstrated by efficacy tests using UV-erythema and vasoconstriction models.

This report presents the first documented case of a 23-year-old male with both androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata, showing clinical improvement with topical treatment and counseling.

Alloxan diabetes, methylthiouracil, cortisone, and adrenaline affect how white mice hair follicles use glucose and cystine and their cell division.

This study examined sheltered and adopted domestic cats, finding that dark coat color and living environment significantly influence hair cortisol and DHEA levels as stress indicators, while age and sex do not; adoption was associated with reduced long-term stress, underscoring its benefits for feline welfare.

This study found that UV radiation exposure during a simulated Brazilian summer caused more significant mechanical damage to natural hair than bleaching, although both caused comparable structural alterations, with double bleaching leading to the most severe protein degradation.

This study found that glyoxylic acid caused more protein loss in hair compared to traditional alkaline straighteners, though both types of treatments showed comparable effects on hair tensile strength.
