This study found that repeated exposure to ozonated water caused oxidative changes in hair proteins, lipids, and pigments, leading to altered hair properties, with minimal effects on shine and color.

This study found that modern styling cosmetics can significantly alter hair structure through changes in interfacial chemistry and cohesion, particularly when applied to already damaged hair.

This study found that, compared to oxidative treatments, reductive perm-waving more severely impacts the intermediate filaments in European human hair, while both treatments alter denaturation kinetics in a first-order manner.

This study found that alkylation of kerateine cysteine residues created a cell-compatible method for controlling hydrogel erosion rates and therapeutic agent release in keratin-based systems.

This article reviews the use of pigmented concealing powders as a viable cosmetic option for patients with alopecia, noting the potential for a more natural appearance compared to traditional hairstyling or hairpieces, but it presents no new clinical results.

This study reported that participants applying topical human platelet exosome extract serum experienced significant improvements in hair volume, density, scalp coverage, and overall hair health compared to a placebo, and no adverse effects were observed.

This study found that cysteic acid generation during hair bleaching is diffusion-controlled, increasing with the square root of bleaching time, in both cuticles and cortex of human hair fibers.

This study found that in female mice, softer, lightly crosslinked gelatin-based hydrogels promoted better wound healing with less scarring and inflammation compared to stiffer, heavily crosslinked hydrogels, affecting immune and stromal cell behavior.

This study found that applying both dehydrothermal treatment and carbodiimide crosslinking improved the mechanical properties of porcine acellular dermal matrix scaffolds without added cytotoxicity, suggesting potential applications in tissue engineering.

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 found that washing hair after reduction in a permanent waving process allows for significant reformation of disulfide cross-links, enhancing the strength and elasticity of hair fibers.

In this study, researchers developed a method using stencils to create controlled stiffness gradients in alginate hydrogels, revealing that stiffer regions within the gels promote deeper invasion by breast cancer cells, facilitating the study of mechanosensitive cellular behaviors.

In this study, a newly developed nanoparticle-loaded hydrogel wound dressing demonstrated significant antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and proangiogenic activities, effectively reducing pain and promoting healing in a murine burn wound model while preventing infection by *Staphylococcus aureus*.

In this study, researchers developed a multifunctional, injectable hydrogel that adapts to irregularly shaped wounds, enhances healing, and shows potential antibacterial activity without significant toxicity, suggesting promise for treating chronic wounds.

This article reviews the role of the National Alopecia Areata Foundation in promoting research and collaboration to find treatments or a cure for alopecia areata and reports no clinical results.

This study observed that repeated perm treatments decrease disulfide bonds in hair due to their conversion largely into cysteic acid, affecting the waving efficiency depending on the reduction agent used.

In this study of patients with Androgenic Alopecia, micro-grafts containing HD-AFSCs resulted in significantly improved hair density and follicle count over 11 months compared to a saline solution, suggesting a potential alternative therapy for hair regrowth.

This study identified a mutation in the CST6 gene linked to a rare syndrome with symptoms affecting hair and skin, revealing cystatin M/E's role in maintaining epidermal homeostasis and hair follicle development.

Different ethnic groups have unique hair growth patterns, with African hair growing slower and less dense, Asian hair growing fast but sparse, and Caucasian hair being densest; men are more likely to experience hair loss than women.

This study analyzed deep learning's application to automate hair density measurement in images and found that YOLOv4 had the best performance among tested algorithms, with a mean average precision of 58.67.

This letter compares automated digital image analysis (TrichoScan) with manual marking of hairs in male patients with androgenetic alopecia but reports no new results.

This study found that bleached hair showed optimal protein structural integrity and tensile strength at pH 5, with significant changes in cross-linking, water content, and diameter at more alkaline or acidic levels.

In this study, combined treatment with transglutaminase and keratin significantly repaired damaged hair by improving its structural properties, reducing swelling, and enhancing crosslink activities, as evidenced by microscopy and spectroscopy analyses.

In this study, treating hair with thioglycolic acid was found to alter disulfide bond patterns in keratin-associated proteins, shifting them from an ellipsoidal to a near-spherical shape.

This review discusses the management of hair loss in midlife women, focusing on female pattern hair loss, hair shaft alterations from hair care, and telogen effluvium, and reports no new research findings.

This review discusses the impact of testosterone therapy on postmenopausal women's sexual function and well-being but notes a lack of long-term safety studies and debates on defining androgen insufficiency.

This study found that hair with lower levels of keratin associated proteins reduced the foreign body response in mouse subcutaneous implant tests compared to hair with higher keratin levels.

Hair health is influenced by genetics, aging, and environmental factors, with proper care needed to maintain it.

In this systematic review, tSVF-based therapy demonstrated favorable outcomes for various pathologies, including aged skin and osteoarthritis, with low incidence of adverse events, while highlighting the need for further research into optimal protocols and mechanisms of action.

This study concluded that TrichoScan is error-prone in its current form and overestimates certain hair growth parameters, with results not aligning with clinical severity of alopecia.
