In this study, fish-derived collagen hydrolysate from tilapia scales improved hair growth and skin health in both cellular and mouse models, reducing oxidative stress and inflammation while enhancing hair quality and promoting beneficial gene expression.

This study found that applying low-intensity ultrasound enhanced hair growth on the treated area of mice with androgenic alopecia, potentially by affecting the action of finasteride.

This case report describes a 28-year-old male who developed a subpericranial abscess, an unusual complication of subpericranial hematoma, potentially related to microneedling procedures, highlighting a risk of infection even without open wounds.

This study reviewed evidence for six minimally invasive treatments for androgenetic alopecia, finding consistent support for platelet-rich plasma and topical finasteride, while other options like microneedling and intradermal dutasteride showed promise but need further and standardized research.

This case report highlighted two instances of bezoar disease: a massive gastric trichobezoar in a teenage girl and multiple gastrointestinal phytobezoars in an adult man, underscoring the importance of CT imaging for diagnosis and the effectiveness of surgical intervention for removing large or multiple bezoars.

This review synthesizes recent molecular and preclinical advances in alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia, highlighting how interventions targeting specific intracellular signaling pathways and utilizing stem cell technologies can support precision regrowth and structural follicle reconstruction.

This study on male rats found that finasteride treatment led to the differential expression of several genes in the hypothalamus and hippocampus, hinting at potential links to observed side effects like depression, anxiety, and cognitive disturbances.

This review highlights the potential of transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) as a non-invasive and affordable treatment for brain diseases, summarizing recent advances and successful protocols based on over two decades of research.
