This review describes how liver and kidney diseases and diabetes may affect ethyl glucuronide levels in hair, impacting forensic and clinical interpretations, but reports no new experimental results.

This study observed that ethyl glucuronide (EtG) concentrations in hair decreased significantly during an abstinent period, suggesting possible wash-out effects or other factors affecting EtG levels.

This study suggests that chest, arm, leg, and beard hair samples may be viable alternatives to scalp hair for monitoring long-term alcohol intake, although body hair is more typically collected from men.

This study reported that patients with decreased kidney function had significantly higher levels of ethyl glucuronide in hair compared to healthy volunteers, suggesting caution when using hair EtG levels to assess driving qualifications.

This study found that patients with decreased kidney function had significantly higher hair levels of ethyl glucuronide compared to healthy individuals, suggesting these results should be cautiously interpreted.

This study found that exposure to artificial sunlight led to variable changes in ethyl glucuronide levels in hair, with both increases and decreases observed depending on hair characteristics.

Scalp hypothermia can prevent chemotherapy-induced hair loss but is not suitable for all patients, and more research is needed to improve prevention methods.

The device improved hair growth and thickness in men without side effects.

This study found that during the Covid-19 lockdown, the percentage of abstinent and low-risk alcohol drinkers increased while moderate and chronic drinking decreased compared to the previous four years.

Gender affects hair and scalp characteristics, with differences in hormone responses, graying patterns, and trace metals.

This study discovered that the gene Tfap2b identifies a melanocyte stem cell population in zebrafish, essential for regenerating melanocytes with multi-fate potential into adult pigment cells.

This study found that premature hair graying in young Turkish men and women is associated with emotional stress, alcohol consumption, chronic diseases, and a family history of graying.

This study reported that psoriasis patients with hypertension, androgenetic alopecia, or those using acitretin had higher COVID-19 hospitalization rates, while biologic and non-biologic treatments generally did not increase severe infection risk.

This source highlights the potential benefits of identifying risk factors and intervening early to mitigate acne scarring and improve quality of life. It also emphasizes the importance of recognizing acne severity predictors to guide preventive strategies and optimize patient outcomes.

This study reported that active smokers, including e-cigarette and hookah users, had worse skin quality with more wrinkles and pigmentation compared to ex-smokers and non-smokers, suggesting smoking negatively impacts skin health and may motivate cessation efforts.

This review concludes that the two-stage technique of hair transplantation with prior fat grafting appears effective for treating scalp scars, based on existing literature.

This study found that RANK-RANKL signaling regulates hair renewal and epidermal homeostasis in mice, revealing its role in initiating hair growth cycles and maintaining skin cell activity.

In this study, electrical stimuli at low voltage and frequency settings promoted hair growth in vitro and in rabbit models, possibly by activating pathways like Wnt/β-catenin.

In this controlled study, a pulsed electrical field treatment significantly increased hair regrowth compared to baseline and the control group over 36 weeks, without observed side effects.

This review discusses the potential impact of endocrine-disrupting chemicals and body size on pubertal onset and progression, highlighting critical gaps and priorities for future research without presenting new clinical results.

This review discusses the effects of estrogen on skin aging and highlights potential therapies, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that expressing certain PIN proteins in Arabidopsis root hairs inhibited growth by decreasing auxin levels, while PIN5 slightly stimulated growth, demonstrating differential effects on auxin transport.

This study observed that a wearable electric stimulation device significantly promoted hair regeneration in rats and mice, outperforming conventional pharmacological treatments and enhancing growth factor secretion.

This study suggests that the GPX-PDE1 and GPX-PDE2 genes in white lupin enhance root hair development and contribute to Pi limitation acclimation by facilitating glycerophosphodiester degradation.

This review discusses the incidence, reversibility, and impact of chemotherapy-induced alopecia and concludes that scalp cooling is the most effective prevention method in most cases, though some questions remain.

This article reviews hair analysis for drug detection and its applications in various fields, but reports no new research findings, emphasizing the need to consider the method's complexities and potential pitfalls.

This article provides an updated overview of the diagnosis and management of tinea infections but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the association between various skin conditions and metabolic syndrome, reporting no new clinical results but suggesting a potential reciprocal relationship that warrants further investigation.

This review discusses post-SSRI sexual dysfunction and post-finasteride syndrome, highlighting unknowns about their true incidence and underlying causes, and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, several compounds, including estrogen and Dutasteride, showed neuroprotective effects on dopaminergic neurons in an MPTP mouse model of Parkinson's disease.
