This study analyzed dosimetric quantities in x-ray microbeam radiation therapy and found that the peak-to-valley dose ratio decreases with depth in the irradiated object.

This study found that hippocampus sparing whole brain radiation therapy (HS-WBRT) using multi-field intensity modulated radiation therapy prevents alopecia without compromising cognitive function compared to traditional whole brain radiation therapy.

This study found that using rind-based dosimetric techniques in brain irradiation significantly reduced scalp dose and alopecia compared to standard treatment plans, with 60% of patients experiencing no hair loss.

This review found that low-level laser therapy appears promising in improving hair regrowth and patient satisfaction in androgenetic alopecia, though results should be interpreted cautiously.

This study describes changes in scalp hair color, including rare instances of repigmentation, following volumetric modulated arc therapy for skin cancer; this potential side effect may warrant discussion during informed consent.

This article discusses the emergence of "Kainar syndrome" among residents near a nuclear test site in Kazakhstan and names brucellosis combined with vitamin deficiency as the suspected cause, without attributing it to nuclear tests.

In this retrospective study on pediatric craniospinal irradiation, researchers found that permanent radiation-induced alopecia occurred in 45.8% of patients, with higher radiation doses and treatment intensity being significant predictors, suggesting that defined dosimetric thresholds can support scalp-sparing planning.

This study found that using human hair follicle dermal papilla cells, 53BP1 focus counting can estimate radiation doses from 50 mGy after 5 hours, and focus size analysis refines dose estimation for doses ≥ 500 mGy up to 96 hours.

This review evaluates photobiomodulation's diverse clinical uses in sports and medicine, reporting physiological modulation and potential therapeutic benefits, but emphasizes the importance of precise dosimetry for success.

This study found that using a contrast agent in Microbeam Radiation Therapy simulations increased the target dose but concluded that using a linear accelerator as an X-ray source did not preserve MRT advantages.

This review discusses photobiomodulation therapy for different types of alopecia and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight potential mechanisms and future perspectives.

This review discusses the evidence for platelet-rich plasma in hair restoration and skin rejuvenation, highlighting its benefits but noting a lack of consensus on best practices and protocols.

This editorial reviews how photobiomodulation therapy might effectively treat both hyperpigmentation and depigmentation skin disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This review article identifies a need for standardized guidelines in using photobiomodulation therapy for spinal cord injury repair, emphasizing that current inconsistencies in therapy parameters may hinder optimal outcomes and limit clinical trials.

Low-level laser therapy may increase hair density in pattern hair loss.

Active vitamin D3 might protect hair follicles from radiation damage.

This review of existing literature reports that photobiomodulation shows high effectiveness and safety in treating dermatological conditions like acne, psoriasis, and alopecia, though standardized clinical trials are needed to further validate its therapeutic benefits.

This review discusses the applications of low level laser therapy (LLLT) in wound healing, pain reduction, and treating various conditions, but reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the need for randomized controlled trials for serious diseases.

In this study, the researchers established a dose–response relationship between the hair follicle dose during cranial irradiation and the development of permanent alopecia, with other factors showing limited correlation.

This study found that high-dose radiation can induce accelerated cellular senescence, inflammation, and loss of epithelial stem cells in mouse and human skin, contributing to radiation dermatitis.

Metformin and thiazolidinediones are similarly effective for PCOS, but metformin is often preferred due to fewer side effects.

This study describes a new radiation method called three-dimensional moving field radiation therapy, which showed improved tumor targeting and reduced damage to surrounding tissues compared to traditional one-plane methods.

This study found that combining photobiomodulation with topical minoxidil did not produce additional hair growth benefits in males with androgenetic alopecia compared to using minoxidil alone.

This review discusses the potential mechanisms and evidence supporting low-level laser therapy for stimulating hair growth in men and women, while noting its safety and effectiveness but needing further study on specific parameters.

In this randomized study, patients with early favorable Hodgkin lymphoma showed similar complete remission and survival rates whether receiving 2 or 4 cycles of ABVD and 20 Gy or 30 Gy IFRT, though reduced toxicity was associated with fewer cycles and lower radiation doses.

Manage vitiligo with treatments, address emotions, and use camouflage techniques.

This study reports that three synthesized PSMA-targeted radioimaging agents demonstrated high affinity and specific localization to prostate cancer tumors in a mouse model, highlighting their potential for cancer detection and monitoring.

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 review found that many low-level light therapy studies report beneficial effects but often fail to provide adequate measurement details, affecting the reliability and repeatability of the research.
