This study found that hair cortisol concentrations in mother-daughter pairs are a potential biomarker for cortisol responses to chronic stress, with daughter-mother similarities affected by parenting styles and children's symptoms.

Cortexolone 17a-propionate may be an effective new treatment for hair loss.

Hair cortisol can be a reliable way to measure long-term stress.

Clofazimine may be effective for treating ashy dermatosis.

This study observed fluctuations in hair cortisol levels in rabbits, indicating their HPA axis activity responded similarly to surgical and environmental stressors, suggesting potential anthropomorphic evaluations of stress.

Hair cortisol is a reliable long-term stress marker during pregnancy.

This study found that unemployed individuals had higher hair cortisol content over a 6-month period, indicating greater cumulative cortisol exposure compared to employed individuals.

This study found that treatment with Shunyou dispersible tablet and prednisone improved clinical symptoms in patients with lupus nephritis, showing significant benefits over time along with a good safety profile.

Cyclosporin and minoxidil promote hair growth.

This study reports promising results for alopecia universalis treatment using a combination of systemic methotrexate and low-dose corticosteroids with topical minoxidil, though monitoring for side effects is necessary.

In this randomized trial, a solid shampoo formulated with plant extracts was more effective than placebo in improving androgenetic alopecia and reducing hair cortisol and DHT concentrations in men.

This review found that glucocorticoid corticosteroids can improve muscle strength and function in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy in the short term, but they are associated with significant short-term adverse effects.

This study found that in lactating Holstein cows, hair from the tail switch, which grows faster and is more sensitive to cortisol changes, is ideal for measuring hair cortisol levels.

This study reports that activating Notch signaling in the hair follicle cortex of transgenic mice caused abnormal differentiation of the medulla and cuticle, highlighting potential cell-cell interactions.

This study found that intramuscular triamcinolone acetonide or pulse therapy effectively treats alopecia areata with manageable side effects, but further strategies are needed to reduce relapse rates.

This study observed that hair loss in captive rhesus macaques varies with season, sex, and housing conditions, and is significantly correlated with HPA axis activity as indicated by faecal cortisol metabolites.

This study found that the aqueous ethanol extract of Myricae Cortex demonstrated in vitro testosterone 5alpha-reductase inhibitory activity and in vivo anti-androgenic effects in mouse and hamster models.

This animal study found that Cinnamomi cortex water extract reduced prostate weight and improved histological changes in a benign prostatic hyperplasia model, suggesting potential as a treatment.

This study found that increased hair cortisol levels among WIFN volunteers suggest higher chronic stress compared to those from a non-First Nation community, possibly linked to socioeconomic factors and poorer health.

This study found that intravenous high-dose pulse corticosteroids resulted in a complete response in 38% of children with alopecia areata, but the majority of responders relapsed within a year.

This study found that intralesional triamcinolone acetonide is effective for treating localized patchy alopecia areata, with dermoscopy aiding in early detection of clinical response and adverse effects.

Oral dexamethasone may help regrow hair in adults with alopecia totalis and universalis.

This study found that systemic corticosteroids led to satisfactory hair regrowth in 38.9% of severe alopecia areata patients, but hair fall occurred upon therapy discontinuation or tapering.

This study found that combining topical and oral pulse corticosteroid therapy for severe alopecia areata in children led to long-lasting hair regrowth, especially in AA plurifocalis, with no serious side effects reported.

This study found that gender, puberty, and BMI significantly affect hair cortisol concentrations in children, suggesting these factors should be considered in future research.

In this study, researchers identified two new keratin-associated proteins, hKAP1.6 and hKAP1.7, in human hair follicles, contributing to understanding hair fiber differentiation.

Darker hair may lead to higher cortisol readings, suggesting a need to adjust for hair color in studies.

In this study, researchers found that high hair cortisol levels, indicating stress in cows, were associated with certain shelter and cow-level conditions such as unclean environments and physical injuries.

This study found that methanol is more effective than isopropanol at removing external cortisol from grizzly bear hair and suggests that the choice of solvent can influence hair cortisol concentration results.
