In this study, researchers found that 11.5% of older outpatients in Vietnam experienced post-COVID-19 hair loss; women, those single or divorced, and individuals with prior COVID-19 hospitalizations were more likely to report hair loss.

In this retrospective study, researchers developed machine learning models to predict mortality risk among 7115 COVID-19 patients in Iran, finding that the random forests model performed best with 96% accuracy and identified factors like intubation and SpO2 as significant predictors.

This summary of a pharmacy internship reports on expanding scientific knowledge through diverse activities, including exploring diabetes medications for obesity treatment and discussing the role of nutritional supplements in geriatrics.

This study found no significant correlation between zinc deficiency and vitamin B12 levels in blood samples from Ahvaz residents, despite some observed age-related trends in micronutrient levels.

This review discusses the biochemical and psychological impacts of polycystic ovary syndrome on immune functions against COVID-19 but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that gene therapy using a mouse cytomegalovirus vector with telomerase reverse transcriptase or follistatin significantly extended lifespan and improved health markers in mice, without adverse effects.

Eating a balanced diet with specific nutrients can help manage menopause symptoms and prevent related health issues.

This review discusses how physical appearance, including skin, facial features, and physique, is linked to aging and health risks, but reports no new experimental results.

Older adults often have skin problems due to aging, and treating these conditions requires attention to both physical and mental health.

Two new compounds can block androgen receptor activity in different ways and may lead to new treatments for androgen-related diseases.

This study suggests that a specific region upstream of the TGF-β1 gene may play a key role in androgenetic alopecia by regulating gene expression in a cell-specific manner.

This study found a statistically significant increase in glycosylated hemoglobins among patients with adult-acquired panhypopituitarism undergoing long-term GH replacement therapy, with two developing diabetes requiring treatment.

In this study, androgenic alopecia was identified as an independent predictor of abnormal white matter hyperintensities in the brain, suggesting it may serve as a surrogate marker for cerebral small vessel disease linked to arteriolosclerosis.

This review highlights men's cosmetic interests, focusing on maintaining a masculine appearance while managing scalp hair, facial lines, and other aging signs, but presents no new findings.

The document concludes that sex hormones are crucial for mammalian reproduction, health, and behavior, and require more research for therapeutic use.

This study reports two cases where pili anulati, typically a non-fragile hair condition, showed increased fragility due to androgenetic alopecia, causing hair shaft fracturing in the affected area.

This case study describes a 14-year-old girl with pili annulati who had fragile hair, which may be due to cavities within the hair shafts as seen in electron microscopic examinations.

This study found that the weak tensile strength of pili torti hair may result from loose keratin intermediate filaments due to abnormalities in disulfide bonds.

Frequent hairdryer use may worsen hair fragility in people with Pili Annulati.

This study found that the wild-derived mouse strain Mus pahari has fragile skin that separates at subdermal levels under moderate force, potentially due to altered extracellular matrix development.

In this study, researchers found that patients with Friedreich's ataxia exhibited more pronounced ultra-structural hair alterations compared to carriers, likely due to oxidative stress related to deficient frataxin expression.

In this study, clinicians are advised to perform trichography regularly on Pomeranians with HCA, as significant hair abnormalities, especially TN, may affect hair quality; further research is needed to understand the underlying mechanisms and treatment options.

This study suggests that clinically apparent fragile hair in children is rarely linked to trichothiodystrophy, and the tiger-tail pattern is not wholly specific to this diagnosis.

Old people's nails often have problems due to body changes, more diseases, and self-care difficulties, affecting their movement and hand use.

Werner's syndrome causes early aging and increases cancer risk, requiring early diagnosis and symptom management.

This study suggests that short telomeres may produce similar aging-related symptoms across different segmental progeroid syndromes, offering potential insights into normative aging processes.

This review discusses common hair and nail diseases in the elderly and reports no new clinical results, noting their significant impact on quality of life.

This study suggests that selenium deficiency accelerates aging-related health deterioration in mice with short telomeres, providing a model for exploring selenium’s role in human aging.

This review examines the complexities of age-related skin healing and discusses how translating findings from model organisms to humans could enhance understanding and treatment of impaired regeneration in aging populations, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this descriptive study, elderly patients most commonly presented with skin wrinkling, xerosis, and eczematous conditions, highlighting the difficulty in distinguishing normal age-related from pathological skin changes.
