This study found that dengue virus infection caused inflammation and cell death in human hair-follicle dermal papilla cells, which may contribute to increased hair shedding observed during the epidemic in Taiwan.

In this study, researchers characterized telogen effluvium observed in 14 patients following a dengue outbreak in Tainan, noting a mean onset time of 2.1 months post-infection.

Hair loss might be the first sign of dengue fever.

This report emphasizes that children with dengue fever face a higher risk of severe outcomes, such as dengue hemorrhagic fever and shock syndrome, compared to adults, necessitating careful management.

In this study, the authors concluded that post-dengue telogen effluvium is a common but underdiagnosed condition causing temporary hair loss, primarily affecting young women, with significant emotional impacts such as anxiety and decreased self-esteem.

This study highlights the significant psychiatric effects associated with dengue fever, noting diverse psychological reactions that occur before, during, and after infection, such as anxiety, depression, and even psychosis, and underscores the need for integrated mental health strategies within public health systems for dengue.

In this study, researchers observed that approximately 1.15% of dengue fever patients experienced alopecia, predominantly among females. The hair loss usually occurred during the recovery phase and was often identified as telogen effluvium, with lower platelet count and hematocrit levels potentially serving as risk factors.

In this study, researchers found significant neuropsychiatric complications from dengue infection, such as anxiety, depression, and even mania, during acute and recovery phases, linked to inflammatory responses and potential direct viral effects on the central nervous system.

Dengue fever can cause hair loss that may lead to serious psychological issues like Body Dysmorphic Disorder in young women.

This case report highlights tinea faciei as a potential diagnosis for vesicular lesions in neonates, suggesting its consideration over more invasive diagnostics for similar presentations.

Chicken feather gene mutation helps understand human hair disorders.

In this study, liver transaminase levels and various symptoms persisted in some adult dengue patients even two months after diagnosis.

This study found that the prevalence of dermatological manifestations in COVID-19 patients was 1.7% in Sri Lanka, with various types of skin lesions reported.

This case report discusses a young man's severe febrile illness mimicking leptospirosis or dengue, ultimately suggesting Gloriosa superba poisoning after hair loss led to the correct diagnosis.

Understanding how our bodies interact with mosquito-borne viruses is crucial because there are few treatments and vaccines.

This article discusses the effects of emerging and persistent viral infections on human health, emphasizing the importance of understanding host-pathogen interactions for vector control, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that Ficus carica extract enhanced fertility markers, including hormone levels and reproductive organ activity, in rats of both sexes, suggesting potential benefits for managing fertility issues.

This article reviews the Directory of Open Access Journals, an extensive global index of quality open access journals, and reports no new results.

This narrative review suggests that intermediate filaments like vimentin and keratin play a significant role in various stages of viral infection, presenting potential antiviral intervention targets.

This study in Ramgati, Bangladesh, found that coastal residents perceive extreme temperatures and high water salinity from climate change as causing various health issues, including heat-related illnesses and maternal health problems, with older individuals and those perceiving a higher risk more affected.

This study reports that biomass activated carbon fibers derived from metaplexis japonica seed hair effectively adsorb methylene blue dye, demonstrating high capacity and rapid adsorption performance.

This study found that specific genetic variants in the CYP21A2 and CYP19A1 genes were associated with severe acne vulgaris among Han Chinese, particularly in male patients.

This study found that patients with androgenetic alopecia showed distinct scalp bacterial imbalances compared to healthy individuals, which were associated with unhealthy lifestyles. These microbial changes might contribute to follicular inflammation, potentially accelerating hair loss in these patients.

In this study, XZYFD, a Traditional Chinese Medicine formulation, was found to improve androgenetic alopecia in a testosterone-induced mouse model by promoting hair regrowth, restoring follicular morphology, and modulating androgen metabolism, MAPK signaling, and lipid metabolism pathways, suggesting potential benefits for patients with metabolic dysfunction.

This study found that active androgens activate lipogenic differentiation in human sebocytes expressing a functional androgen receptor, influencing gene expression and lipid synthesis, while also increasing apoptotic cell population over time.

This study established that a human epidermal model can be utilized to assess 5alpha-reductase activity and evaluate enzyme modulators, such as finasteride, for dermatological applications.

This study demonstrated that aqueous and hydroethanolic extracts of Catharanthus roseus and Schwenckia americana showed no acute oral toxicity at the tested dose in rats, although histological changes in kidney and liver tissues were observed.

In this clinical trial, the authors observed that Dravanti beeja lepa may be safe and effective for promoting hair regrowth in patients with Indralupta (Alopecia Areata).

In this study, the use of Dravanti beeja lepa for 28 days was observed to significantly regenerate hair in patients with Indralupta (Alopecia Areata).
