Keratin structure changes during keratinization, but the exact model remains uncertain.

This study found that serum AMH and new ultrasonographic criteria, such as FNPO ≥15 and OV ≥ 6.5 mL, effectively diagnosed PCOS, with a recommended AMH threshold of 4.7 ng/mL.

This study reports a good correlation between the curvature of human eyelashes and the displacement of the neutral axis, influenced by the non-uniform thickness of the outer cuticle layer.

This study found that mink pelts with "singe" and "red hip" defects often exhibit split hair tips and altered cuticle structures, which may contribute to their undesired metallic sheen.

This letter to the editor describes a case of acquired progressive kinking of the hair in a Korean female adolescent, but no new research findings are reported.

Hair analysis can offer clues about a person, but individual differences limit making precise identifications.

This study found that the prevalence of polycystic ovarian morphology among Thai women with PCOS was 55.2%, with no significant factors associated with its presence in univariate analysis.

Rabbit hair fibers are similar to wool and have a hollow center like feathers.

Uncombable hair syndrome causes dry, frizzy hair that can't be combed flat, seen in a young child.

This study suggests that elevated copper levels in domestic tapwater, exacerbated by its aggressive properties, likely contribute to green hair by damaging the cuticle and increasing copper uptake.

Hair shaft changes may be linked to CCCA, but their role is unclear.

In this study conducted at the Veterinary Clinical Complex in Bikaner, Rajasthan, researchers found that among 240 canine dermatitis cases, 25 dogs had demodicosis, characterized by various hematological and serum biochemical changes, and distinctive histopathological alterations in skin samples.

In this study, researchers found that overt hyperthyroidism was the most prevalent thyroid disorder among patients, especially in women, and it was characterized by classic symptoms like high pulse rate and weight loss, highlighting the importance of early identification and management to prevent complications.

This study found that transverse sections of scalp biopsies, particularly looking at the anagen:non-anagen hair ratio and presence of pigment casts, effectively distinguish alopecia areata from androgenetic alopecia.

This study proposed a network model for the cross-linked structure of keratin-associated proteins in hair and wool fibers, suggesting notable differences between the two, potentially affecting hair fiber elasticity.

This study concluded that horizontal sections of scalp biopsy specimens provide more diagnostic information for male pattern androgenetic alopecia than vertical sections and can predict hair regrowth potential following topical minoxidil therapy.

This study found that spironolactone reduced fish fecundity and caused masculinization of females at certain concentrations, while having no effect on Daphnia magna reproduction, underscoring concerns for environmental exposure to vertebrates.

This study found that defective cross-linking in hair cuticles is observable in a minority of mouse hair mutants, suggesting different proteins are involved in cross-linking across cell types.

This study demonstrates that Tp63-expressing epithelial stem cells from non-skin tissues can respond to skin morphogenetic signals and contribute to the formation of hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and epidermis.

This study found that among the Idoma people of Benue State, Nigeria, approximately two-thirds have a curved (widow's peak) hairline, with this shape being predominant across both genders.

This study describes a staining technique that differentiates medullary from cortical keratin in sheep and goat hair using Ziehl-Neelsen's carbol-fuchsin in skin biopsy sections.

This study found that scalp involvement in dermatomyositis consistently shows a nonscarring pattern with chronic telogen effluvium, featuring telangiectasia and mucin deposition as universal histologic markers.

This study found that dental students' manual dexterity was weakly associated with their performance in skills-based assessments, while self-perceived skill levels showed no significant correlation with assessment outcomes, suggesting a potential benefit from focusing on dexterity enhancement in dental education.

This study in Saudi Arabia found that psychological stress was strongly linked to skin symptoms, with conditions like psoriasis, eczema, acne, rash, and baldness showing significant associations, highlighting the importance of considering stress levels when diagnosing skin issues.

This study found a high prevalence of stress-related hair loss in Al Majma'ah, Saudi Arabia, particularly among females and individuals aged 31-40, with significant associations between hair loss and stress, psychosocial challenges, and sociodemographic factors.

This study found that the most common causes for dermatology outpatient visits in RIMS Kadapa were contact dermatitis, scabies, fungal infections, urticaria, and acne.

In this study, 96% of children with CNS tumors receiving MAPK and mTOR inhibitors experienced common, treatable skin reactions, occasionally requiring therapy adjustments.

This article discusses the role of suction-assisted lipectomy (SAL) and the hCG method in obesity management, highlighting the speculative benefits of hCG but reporting no new clinical findings.

This research developed a zinc-doped nanocomposite using biodegradable materials, observing effective bone targeting and regeneration capabilities in vivo, with no observed cytotoxicity in the MG63 cell line, potentially due to blocking Farnesyl Diphosphate Synthetase to inhibit osteoclastic activity and promote osteogenesis.

The meeting discussed medical findings, including benefits of certain treatments for cancer and heart conditions, and highlighted issues like poor adherence to preventive measures and skill gaps among interns.
