This study observed that hair cortisol and cortisone concentrations were higher in older individuals and those with diabetes mellitus, highlighting their potential significance for assessing somatic health.

This study suggests that oral budesonide may not effectively maintain remission in Crohn's disease beyond three months, with minor benefits that are outweighed by increased rates of treatment-related adverse events.

This source reports that while creatine supplementation is popular for improving muscle mass and performance, questions about its efficacy and safety persist. An expert team is reviewing literature to address concerns like water retention, renal effects, and its benefits across different populations and uses.

This study introduced a validated LC-MS/MS-based method for profiling long-term steroid concentrations in human scalp hair, offering potential applications in endocrinology research.

This study found that feeding aged mice a probiotic yogurt induced changes leading to thicker, healthier fur, suggesting a bacteria-triggered interleukin-10-dependent mechanism that mimics signs of youth and reproductive fitness.

This study found that low level laser therapy at 655 nm significantly increased hair counts in males with androgenetic alopecia.

This review discusses current and emerging treatments for benign prostatic hyperplasia and emphasizes the need for further research to optimize treatment selection, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, copper-doxorubicin liposomes with multidose therapy reduced systemic toxicity compared to ammonium sulfate-loaded doxorubicin liposomes, while combinatorial strategies further enhanced tumor regression and accumulation.

This study found that combined loss of Atr and p53 in adult mice led to severe tissue degeneration and delayed regeneration due to the accumulation of highly damaged cells.

This study documented an increased health care burden due to post-COVID conditions in the 6 months following the acute phase of infection, providing vital evidence for resource planning.

This study found that low oxygen conditions and ECM degradation products increased the proliferation and migration of perivascular stem cells without altering their phenotype, suggesting potential roles in tissue repair.

In this study, older men using 5α-reductase inhibitors for prostatic enlargement did not show increased risk of suicide, but had elevated risks of self-harm and depression.

This study used the "ARE-Luc" mouse model to visualize androgen receptor activity across various tissues in both male and female mice, highlighting the direct action of androgens outside reproductive organs.

This study found that hair cortisol concentrations can be reliably measured in healthy children and generally increase with age, unaffected by gender, puberty, or hair care practices.

Many COVID-19 survivors experience long-term symptoms like fatigue and sleep issues, needing ongoing medical support.

This review discusses genome maintenance mechanisms critical for preventing age-related diseases by preserving stem and progenitor cell potential, but reports no new empirical findings.

This study found that hair cortisol concentrations in sheep were significantly increased by extensive brushing or dexamethasone treatment, suggesting that external factors may affect its reliability as a chronic stress measure.

This review highlights that light and laser therapies, such as the 1064-nm Nd:YAG and 810-nm diode lasers, may offer significant improvement for acne keloidalis nuchae with minimal side effects, though larger trials are needed.

This study reports that permanent and severe alopecia is a newly identified complication of the FEC 100–docetaxel regimen used for adjuvant breast cancer treatment.

This case report highlights that a woman experienced arsenic toxicosis from kelp supplements, manifesting as alopecia and memory loss, which resolved after stopping the supplements.

This study found that Musashi-2 regulates mRNA targets to restrict epithelial cell migration, revealing a key function of Msi2 beyond its known role in promoting cell growth.

This study found that GALT5 and GALT2 are redundant enzymes essential for O-glycosylation of AGPs, with mutations leading to significant growth and development defects in plants.

This study developed a method for expanding human dermal papilla cells in vitro while maintaining their ability to induce hair growth, advancing the potential for follicular cell implantation as a treatment for hair loss.

This review emphasized the seriousness of obesity, linking it to over 50 medical conditions with causal evidence from genetic studies, underscoring the need for urgent prevention and management efforts due to its significant health, social, and economic burdens.

This study suggests that cerebrospinal fluid levels of the neurosteroids allopregnanolone and pregnanolone correlate negatively with PTSD and negative mood symptoms, with potential sex-specific differences in synthesis enzyme blocks.

Imatinib can repigment grey hair, while SU11428 can cause temporary hair depigmentation.

This review discusses novel molecular techniques in skin appendage research and summarizes the distribution of key molecules, but it reports no new experimental results.

This study found that vertical sections of alopecia biopsy specimens had a higher concordance rate with the original combined diagnosis compared to transverse sections alone, although both methods have their pros and cons.

This study found that skin microbiota, particularly in wild-type mice, promotes wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis and wound healing, highlighting the potential downsides of routine antibiotic use on skin regeneration.
