April 2025 in “Journal of Biophotonics” This study found that 808 nm laser photobiomodulation altered mitochondrial respiration and enhanced osteogenic protein expression in human dental pulp stem cells, with the effects being dose-specific and more pronounced at 15 J/cm².
March 2025 in “Journal of Clinical Medicine” This study reviewed adverse events associated with low-dose oral minoxidil for treating alopecia, finding hypertrichosis and fluid retention as common, typically manageable side effects without needing treatment discontinuation.
January 2025 in “Journal of Cutaneous Immunology and Allergy” In this study, the researchers reported that baricitinib improved hair loss in a real-world setting for Japanese adults with alopecia areata, with a 64.7% success rate at 60 weeks, though prolonged episodes reduced efficacy. Common side effects were acne and mildly decreased renal function.
In this study, researchers developed a method for high-resolution live imaging of leg regeneration in the crustacean Parhyale hawaiensis, which effectively captures the entire process at cellular resolution over 10 days while minimizing photodamage.
December 2023 in “Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism” In this case report from People's College of Medical Sciences, a 20-year-old man initially misdiagnosed with Addison's disease was ultimately found to have strongyloidiasis, with his symptoms and weight loss improving after antihelminthic treatment.
May 2023 in “Journal of Clinical Medicine” This review article reports recent advancements in understanding, diagnosing, and treating various hair loss conditions, like androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata, including their genetic factors and new therapeutic options, while also examining the impact of COVID-19 on hair loss.
This study found that innate lymphoid cells-type 1 (ILC1lc) can induce alopecia areata (AA) by disrupting hair follicle immune privilege and causing hair follicle dystrophy and regression in both ex vivo and in vivo settings.
January 2018 in “Journal of the advanced practitioner in oncology” This case study provides an exemplar of a 75-year-old man with metastatic renal cell carcinoma, outlining his medical history, recent imaging findings, and treatment decisions; it reports no clinical results.
