This study found that women who wear the hijab have a different scalp microbiome composition compared to those who do not, with specific bacteria and fungi more prominent in each group, suggesting a higher susceptibility to seborrheic dermatitis among hijab wearers.

This study found that COVID-19 vaccines were generally well-tolerated among Bangladeshi medical students, with most side effects being mild and decreasing in frequency after subsequent doses.

This study found that individuals with androgenetic alopecia had higher scalp microbiome diversity and more complex scalp-gut microbiome networks than those without, suggesting a link between skin-gut microorganisms and hair loss development.

Drinking alcohol 1-2 times a week may reduce urinary symptoms, but drinking more often might increase the risk.

This study observed that dermatological and hair changes, like skin sagging and hair shedding, commonly occur early during weight loss with GLP-1 receptor agonists, highlighting the need for tailored dermatological care alongside treatment.

This study used a multi-point tension test method to evaluate hair damage over time and found it useful for assessing the effects of cosmetics and metal content on hair strength.

This study introduced a new high-throughput method for analyzing scalp hair morphology and found that quantifying hair form provides more accurate information than traditional classification based on racial categories, challenging the belief that cross-sectional morphology predicts hair curvature.

Hair damage shows as fragility, dullness, and discoloration, varies by ethnicity, and is worsened by cosmetic procedures and diseases.

In this study, a new shading model for hair was developed that better matches real-life light scattering, thanks to detailed new measurements of hair fiber scattering not predicted by existing models.

This study introduced a new hair shading model that more accurately simulates light scattering on hair fibers, capturing effects not predicted by previous models.

This review discusses platelet-rich plasma for androgenic alopecia and reports beneficial effects on hair density and quality, but suggests more rigorous studies are needed for conclusive evidence.

This article contains no research findings; it reports on an online discussion about platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and opinions shared during a conference.

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 focused on equine sarcoid, the most common tumor in horses, and described its types, clinical signs, and histopathological characteristics such as hyperkeratosis and changes in the hair follicle and dermis.

In this cross-sectional study, researchers found that those without a diabetic background had higher levels of secreted frizzled related protein-4, while family history of diabetes was strongly correlated with waist circumference, waist-to-height ratio, and insulin resistance but not significantly linked to protein-4 levels.

This retrospective cross-section study found that in a cohort of Pica patients in Iraq, 92.4% were female, and many had low levels of ferritin, hemoglobin, and vitamin D, which may contribute to the disorder by causing psychological issues.

This study reviewed scalp biopsies from African-American patients, identifying distinct features and diagnostic clues for scarring alopecia types such as traction alopecia and central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.

In a cross-sectional analysis of 58 hair growth cosmeceuticals marketed for women or unisex use, this study found that ingredients with potential environmental hazards, particularly phenoxyethanol and synthetic fragrances, are commonly present, while substances like sodium lauryl sulfate, parabens, and microbeads were not detected.

This study found that micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) was highly effective for analyzing the cross-sectional geometry of hair fibres, including the medulla in highly curled hair, but less effective than scanning electron microscopy for surface details.

In this study, nearly two-thirds of Saudi adults reported experiencing hair loss following COVID-19 infection or vaccination, with female sex and nutritional deficiencies identified as significant correlates for this condition.

In this study, among patients with clinically suspected appendageal tumours, histopathology confirmed their presence in 42 cases, with benign types found more frequently than malignant ones.

This study found that 37.4% of high-school students in rural Eskisehir had alopecia, with affected students experiencing poorer health-related quality of life, particularly in general health perception, vitality, and mental health.

This study observed that nail abnormalities often indicate underlying dermatological or systemic conditions, with psoriasis and infections being the most common causes among patients.

This study at B.J. Medical College and Civil Hospital highlighted an extensive range of nail disorders, with onychomycosis being the most common, and emphasized the importance of nails in diagnosing both dermatological and systemic conditions.

This study found that there is a low prevalence and wide variability in U.S. insurance coverage for ancillary gender surgeries, with specific criteria often required for favorable coverage.

This study introduces a modular fiber model to investigate how changes in microstructural properties of wool affect its critical buckling load, highlighting potential uses and areas needing further research in wool fiber biophysics.

People with cleft lip and palate often have respiratory problems.

In this study, researchers used computer-generated models to demonstrate that subtle changes in hair diameter, density, and style significantly affect perceptions of age, health, and attractiveness.

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

This review discusses the potential impact of endocrine-disrupting chemicals and body size on pubertal onset and progression, highlighting critical gaps and priorities for future research without presenting new clinical results.
