This bibliometric review analyzes trends in published research on ocean pollution biodegradation and bioremediation over time, reporting a notable growth in related publications from 2010 to 2022.

This study found no significant genetic correlations between male pattern baldness and COVID-19 outcomes, suggesting that shared genetic factors may not explain the reported association.

This study found that both natural and environmental selection have significantly influenced the goat genome, revealing genetic loci tied to adaptation, fitness, and productive traits, more so than artificial selection, across various goat populations.

This review synthesizes existing research on autologous platelet-rich plasma for treating androgenetic alopecia, suggesting its promise with standardized protocols and personalized approaches, but reports no new clinical results.

In this review, researchers explored hair as a promising tool for identifying biomarkers in schizophrenia, highlighting its potential for supporting personalized medicine through ease of sampling, though acknowledging challenges like individual variability and methodological inconsistencies.

This meta-analysis found that patients with alopecia areata, especially those with more severe forms like alopecia totalis or universalis, may have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, suggesting a potential link between the systemic inflammation in AA and cardiovascular risk.

In this study, researchers reconstituted the face of Bayard, a historical French knight, using cranial characteristics, DNA analyses for skin, eye, and hair traits, and digital analysis of his portrait.

This review discusses the transformative potential and challenges of using AI in cosmetic dermatology, highlighting how AI is enhancing diagnostics, treatment personalization, and patient satisfaction while addressing issues such as data quality and ethical concerns in order to ensure responsible and ethical implementation.

Interest in COVID-19 hair loss increased during COVID-19 surges, especially in higher-income countries.

This retrospective study found that cyproterone acetate, both alone and with estrogens, was safe, well tolerated, and induced modest feminizing effects in late-pubertal transgender female adolescents.

This study detected a significant association between finasteride use and sexual dysfunction, particularly in younger patients with alopecia, suggesting that indication and reporting stimulation may influence the observed signal.

This study identified differentially expressed proteins and pathways potentially involved in wool bending in Zhongwei goats, with specific genes like COL6A1 and CRNN emerging as important candidates in this process.

This study found that among individuals with hair loss-related conditions, there was a significant association between alopecia and anxiety disorders, with affected individuals experiencing anxiety more frequently.

This study identified potential new adverse drug reaction signals for erlotinib, used in lung and pancreatic cancer treatment, by analyzing a large dataset of case reports, indicating further clinical studies are necessary to confirm these findings.

This review discusses the growing use of scalp hair for elemental analysis in various fields and highlights advancements in analysis techniques, including the future potential of laser ablation ICP-MS, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that overexpression of the lncRNA AC010789.1 in hair follicle stem cells may suppress androgen alopecia progression by modulating several molecular pathways, suggesting a potential new treatment strategy.

This meta-analysis found that patients with androgenetic alopecia have significantly abnormal lipid profiles, which could contribute to the link between this condition and cardiovascular diseases.

Certain variations of the HDAC9 gene can increase or decrease stroke risk in the Chinese population.

This study found that a modest increase in dietary zinc over six months resulted in a detectable increase in sulfur and zinc counts in individual hairs, suggesting a non-invasive method to monitor zinc intake effects.

This meta-analysis found that patients with alopecia areata, particularly those with more extensive forms like alopecia totalis and universalis, may face a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, though no links were found with specific conditions like ischemic stroke or myocardial infarction.

This study found that among Japanese women with diffuse hair loss, decreased hair density without changes in vellus hair was the most common and distinct pattern observed, highlighting differences from previous observations in other populations.

This study suggests that using an appropriate tool for measuring quality of life is vital, particularly as factors like severity, female sex, and eyebrow involvement may increase the psychosocial burden of alopecia areata.

In this study, researchers characterized the normal scalp hair properties in South Koreans, observing that hair density declined with age and varied across scalp sites, while hair thickness patterns remained relatively stable until later in life.
