In this study, adolescent male acne patients with normal serum testosterone showed improved outcomes with finasteride plus lifestyle intervention, significantly reducing DHT and free testosterone levels and improving SHBG levels, with minimal adverse effects.

This study evaluated a hair mask containing rice germ oil GX-N and ferulic acid on damaged hair and found that rice germ oil GX-N improved hair characteristics after bleaching, UV, and heat exposure, but adding ferulic acid did not provide extra benefits.

This study found that certain pyrazole derivatives may serve as effective 5α-reductase inhibitors with potential use in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia, based on molecular docking analyses.

This study developed a spectrophotometric method to determine minoxidil in pharmaceuticals, creating a highly sensitive, simple, and cost-effective approach using a synthesized charge transfer complex with a notable absorption peak at 505 nm.

This study found that 1,4-n-butylene dimaleate can restore the mechanical properties of reduced hair by reconnecting disulfide bonds and improving the hair's structural integrity using a thiol-Michael click reaction, compared to untreated reduced hair.

This study evaluated the protective effects of a hair conditioner containing rice derivatives on natural Caucasian hair using various analysis methods and found that the conditioner, especially with rice germ oil GX-N, effectively improved hair properties even under stress conditions like irradiation.

This study found that pubic hair from Korean males has a thicker cuticle layer with more scales compared to scalp hair, offering better protection against chemical damage, and hypothesizes this evolved as a defense mechanism against exposure to urine and ammonia.

This study demonstrated that cryogelation of human hair keratin allows the development of 3D scaffolds with tunable properties, supporting cell adhesion and proliferation for potential biomedical applications.

This study found that white hair demonstrated denser and more hydrophobic properties compared to black hair.

This study developed chemical fingerprints to differentiate Eclipta prostrata and Wedelia calendulacea, two plants often confused and adulterated in the Indian herbal market, identifying distinct chemical profiles that can prevent such adulteration.

In this study, researchers developed an environmentally friendly hair coating from casein proteins and tannic acid, enhancing the tensile strength of virgin Asian hair by approximately 21% compared to untreated hair, while maintaining elasticity.

In this study, researchers observed that even a single session of hair dyeing can damage hair fibers, with significant worsening of mechanical properties and protein composition after three or more consecutive treatments, emphasizing the need to consider the cumulative impacts of dyeing on hair health.

The document concludes that inflammation markers can be used in diabetes, vitamin D3 affects immune pathways, hyperthyroidism changes hormone levels, androgen levels help diagnose Adrenocortical Carcinoma, erectile dysfunction is linked to diabetes, hypogonadism is common in HIV-infected males, and hormones can be biomarkers for various conditions.

This study found that anovulatory PCOS patients were younger, had longer menstrual cycles, and higher systolic blood pressures compared to ovulatory patients.

This study found that microplastics on the Lebanese Mediterranean coast transport various organic and inorganic pollutants, posing threats to marine organisms and potentially human health.

This case report from a pediatric setting highlighted how an 11-year-old with Hashimoto thyroiditis experienced atypical manifestations such as short stature, pubertal issues, and hair loss after starting levothyroxine therapy, underscoring the need for early diagnosis and multidisciplinary care to improve health outcomes.

In this case report, an 11-year-old girl with hypothyroidism was found to have Hashimoto thyroiditis after presenting with hair loss, short stature, and pubertal disturbances; the study emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and personalized thyroid hormone therapy for better outcomes.

In this study, researchers developed and tested an herbal antidandruff shampoo using plant extracts like neem, fenugreek seed, aloe vera, and clove, demonstrating antibacterial and antifungal activity against common scalp microbes and offering a potential natural alternative for dandruff treatment.

This study developed a new triamcinolone acetonide serum combined with a microneedling device, showing promise for treating alopecia areata by targeting hair follicles in a less invasive, patient-friendly way with confirmed drug solubility, compatibility, and safety.

In this study, researchers conducted a large genome-wide association meta-analysis and found 30 significant genetic loci linked to the risk of dermatophytosis, shedding light on the roles of keratin biology, skin barrier defects, immune dysfunction, and obesity in the disease.

This study reported that pentoxifylline-loaded liposomes, optimized using a statistical design method, achieved a maximum encapsulation efficiency of 84.23% and a controlled 72-hour drug release, potentially improving therapeutic delivery of the drug with limited bioavailability.

This study found that chemically treated hair, particularly when subjected to both acid straightening and bleaching, experiences more significant structural damage when exposed to heat, highlighting key changes in both the internal and surface components of hair fibers.

In this study, a 15-year-old girl presented with symptoms suggesting thyrotoxicosis, and through various diagnostic tests, silent thyroiditis was ultimately diagnosed after negative scintigraphy, highlighting the importance of thorough differential diagnosis in thyroid disorders.

In this study, researchers found that while most genetic variants analyzed were not associated with PCOS in Polish women, the INSR rs1799817 polymorphism may be linked to acne, a symptom of the disorder.

Genetic factors affecting skin health and body weight may increase the risk of dermatophytosis.

This study found that quercetin-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles demonstrated positive protective effects on human hair against UV-B light, as they controlled microscopic surface roughness, reduced chemical changes, and minimized protein loss in vitro compared to other treatments.

In this study, a bleaching protocol was developed to evaluate hair repair products, revealing that K18® and Olaplex® improve hair brightness and lightness, with distinct impacts on hair fiber properties.

This study observed that patients with alopecia areata have a significantly higher prevalence of thyroid disorders and elevated levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone and thyroid auto-antibodies compared to healthy individuals, with a 4.7 times greater risk of thyroid dysfunction among alopecia areata patients.

This study reports that hair oil formulations using Arnica montana in castor and mustard oil bases showed effective results in quality and quantitative analysis through UV visible spectrophotometer, FTIR, and HPTLC testing methods.

This review covers the history, symptoms, and treatment progress for Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome, noting that while no cure exists, understanding its molecular mechanism may improve future treatment strategies.
