This meta-analysis found that rheumatoid arthritis patients experience poorer sleep quality compared to healthy controls, including reduced total sleep time and efficiency, longer sleep latency, and increased wakefulness after sleep onset.

This review discusses Ayurvedic approaches to premature greying of hair, focusing on detoxifying therapies like panchakarma and various rejuvenative treatments, but presents no new empirical findings.

This study found that finasteride use was associated with significantly higher odds of obstructive sleep apnea and insomnia compared to other medications.

This study suggests that the mechanical robustness of hair may be enhanced by the binding interactions of keratin-associated proteins, particularly KAP8.1, with intermediate filament proteins.

This review examines the roles and benefits of chitosan in cosmetics and oral hygiene, highlighting its potential in the cosmeceutical market, but it reports no new results.

This study found that the prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome was 16.6% with Rotterdam criteria but decreased to 6.3% or 8.5% when using alternative criteria involving antral follicle count or anti-Müllerian hormone.

In this study, cross-sex hormone therapy affected hair growth patterns differently, with estrogen reducing hair growth in male-to-female transsexuals and testosterone increasing it in female-to-male transsexuals; however, male typical hair diameters were not fully reached in the latter group after 12 months.

This study identified specific germline and somatic mutations in the Phospholipase C Delta 1 gene as high-risk factors for developing hereditary trichilemmal cysts, involving a monoallelic two-hit mechanism.

This study found that finasteride impaired stress reactivity and reduced exploratory and impulsive behaviors in rats, potentially by altering the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis function.

This study found that lipid nanocarriers called squarticles, conjugated with an antibody, enhanced minoxidil uptake in dermal papilla cells, potentially improving alopecia treatments.

This review discusses biotin's role in nutrition and suggests no benefit to supplementing it for hair, nails, and skin in healthy individuals; it reports preliminary findings that high dosages may help some multiple sclerosis patients.

This study found that children with cancer showed more deviation from typical facial morphology compared to healthy controls, although the differences were not enough to distinguish patients from controls based on facial asymmetry alone.

In this study, researchers identified unique prenatal lymphocyte features in human fetal skin, including proliferative naive T cells and memory-like T cells, which may influence antigen and allergen responses in utero and infancy.

This case report describes a 19-year-old patient with systemic lupus and a composite heterozygosis SC with thalassemic component, highlighting the diagnostic challenge when symptoms of both conditions occur simultaneously.

This study reports that a polyherbal hair mask made from ingredients like strawberry, amla, and fenugreek demonstrates effectiveness as a non-toxic alternative to chemical hair products, promoting hair growth and scalp nourishment while offering ease of use and stability.

This article examines microscopic structural differences and pigment distribution in various rabbit hair colors and reports no clinical results.

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 found that the NHD domain, but not the PHD domain, of hPygo2 is crucial for Wnt-independent growth of ovarian cancer cells, and identified a key interaction with Treacle protein involved in ribosomal biogenesis.

This review discusses the pharmacology and toxicology of cyclooxygenase in skin, highlighting its role in inflammation, wound healing, and tumorigenesis, without presenting new clinical results.

This study discovered that the circadian clock influences hair follicle regeneration, making hair grow faster in the morning and causing more radiation-induced hair loss in the morning compared to the evening.

This study describes characteristic trichoscopic features of various hair loss diseases and proposes an algorithmic method for diagnosing them, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reports that VP-16-213 (etoposide) shows significant therapeutic activity in several cancers including small cell bronchogenic carcinoma and certain leukemias, with hematologic toxicity being the primary side effect.

In this study, researchers found that disrupting the PRL gene in mice led to earlier hair molting, especially in females, suggesting that PRL inhibits murine hair cycle events.

This study reports that dermoscopy is a useful diagnostic tool for distinguishing acute diffuse and total alopecia of the female scalp from female pattern hair loss by identifying specific hair features.

This study provides evidence that Cyclosporine A inhibits catagen development in human hair follicles, suggesting different underlying mechanisms from those observed in rodent studies.

This study reports that transplantation of an ESCs-collagen-chitin biomimetic membrane leads to successful in situ skin regeneration, including hair follicle cell proliferation and formation of dermatoglyphs, in nude mice with full-thickness skin defects.

This study found various ABC transporters are transcribed in human hair follicles, suggesting their possible role in HF biology and potential for new therapeutic interventions.

This study found that arctiin, a compound from Arctium lappa, demonstrated protective effects against oxidative stress-induced dysfunction in human hair dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential therapeutic use for alopecia.

Hair growth is influenced by factors like genetics and nutrition, and more research is needed to understand hair loss and growth mechanisms.

This article discusses the contributions of Dr. Shoji Okuda to the field of hair transplantation and reports no new research findings.
