This study discusses using SEM/EDX for elemental analysis of hair samples in forensic science but notes challenges in detecting certain trace elements from raw hair.

In this study, perimenopausal women with initially high hair concentrations of calcium, magnesium, and silicon experienced a decrease in these elements after intermittent dietary supplementation with calcium, magnesium, silicon, and vitamin D.

This study reported that Turkish males with male pattern androgenetic alopecia had significantly lower zinc and copper levels in their hair compared to healthy controls, suggesting these imbalances may play a role in the condition's etiology.

The document explains how hair is studied in forensics to identify its source and its role in criminal investigations.

This study observed significant differences in trace element hair-scalp concentrations associated with atherosclerosis in coronary and carotid disease patients, suggesting that zinc levels and lymphocyte count interactions may significantly influence cardiovascular disease development.

This study found that using Urtica cannabina extract shampoo led to increased levels of copper, zinc, and iodine in the scalp hair of Mongolian women, along with improvements in hair growth, diameter, and density compared to a regular shampoo.

This study found no significant difference in serum and hair levels of iron, zinc, and copper between female alopecia areata patients and healthy controls.

This review discusses environmental factors like UV radiation and smoking that affect hair health and highlights the potential role of nutrition, but it reports no new results.

Good nutrition is essential for healthy hair.

This study found that patients with MPA had significantly lower zinc and manganese levels and higher copper levels in their hair compared to hair-healthy men.

Malnutrition can change hair color due to altered copper and zinc levels.

This study observed that individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus have notably lower levels of essential and trace elements like Calcium, Potassium, and Zinc in biological samples compared to non-diabetic controls.

This study demonstrated that a daily oral supplement of 1000 mg Kera-Diet® improved hair and nail conditions in women experiencing acute telogen effluvium and brittle nail syndrome over three months.

This study found that women with diffuse alopecia exhibited deficiencies in several trace elements, including sulfur, iron, and potassium, while men showed deficiencies in calcium, sulfur, and zinc.

This narrative review describes the components of human hair and their nutritional importance but reports no clinical results; the authors suggest dietary sulfur amino acids are essential for hair health.

This article reviews the complexity of human hair follicles and the development of shampoos and conditioners tailored for different hair types, but it presents no new experimental findings.

This study observed that hair levels of chromium, manganese, and copper were lower in diabetics compared to controls, while iron levels were higher.

This study found that children with pituitary dwarfism had higher zinc and copper hair concentrations and lower manganese concentrations compared to healthy children.

This study reviewed multiple research articles and found that patients with telogen effluvium, primarily women, had significantly lower levels of serum ferritin and vitamin D compared to healthy controls, suggesting a role for trace element imbalances in hair loss.

This systematic review and meta-analysis found that patients with telogen effluvium, primarily females, exhibited significantly lower serum levels of ferritin and vitamin D compared to healthy controls, suggesting trace element imbalances play a crucial role in this type of hair loss.

This study found that serum levels of zinc, copper, and selenium were significantly lower in patients with alopecia areata compared to healthy controls, regardless of the number of hair loss patches.

This study reported a decrease in zinc and iron levels in the blood and an increase in certain trace elements in hair among patients with alopecia areata compared to healthy individuals.

This study found no differences in trace element concentrations between Finnish alopecia patients and the normal population, but noted significant serum copper variation among different alopecia subtypes.

This case report associates severe zinc deficiency with long-term total parenteral nutrition, suggesting the need for trace element supplementation in such nutritional management.

This review discusses nutritional factors important for hair growth and the need to assess and address deficiencies in cases of alopecia, but does not report new clinical results.

This study reported significantly lower levels of serum iron, ferritin, and calcium in young patients with premature gray hair compared to controls, implying that supplementation might prevent further graying.

This study found that patients experiencing hair loss had significantly lower serum levels of zinc and copper compared to healthy controls.

This review discusses the genetic and androgen-related factors in androgenetic alopecia, highlighting a specific polymorphism in the AR protein associated with male pattern hair loss, and reports no new clinical results.

This review examines the role of trace elements like zinc, selenium, and copper in treating alopecia and discusses the mechanisms by which their imbalance affects hair loss, but reports no new clinical findings.
