In this study, researchers investigated the use of the Pulse Booster Drug Delivery Mesojectgun technology for non-invasive treatment of scalp conditions, finding improvements in hair volume, thickness, and reduction of hair loss in four participants with alopecia after applying specific active ingredients.

In this experimental study, the researchers observed that Platycladus orientalis leaf extract promoted hair growth by enhancing dermal papilla cell proliferation and increasing growth factor expression, particularly through ACK1 activation and modulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways in cultured human cells and a 12-week topical application.

This case study describes a 45-year-old man who developed post-finasteride syndrome with various symptoms after stopping Finasteride, highlighting the condition's rarity and poorly understood pathophysiology.

In this study of Egyptian patients on hepatitis C treatment, 34% experienced skin-related side effects from sofosbuvir and daclatasvir, such as itching and hyperpigmentation, but most reactions were mild and reversible without needing to stop therapy.

This study found that higher homocysteine levels were associated with androgenetic alopecia and inhibited hair growth in mice, suggesting a potential link that warrants further investigation.

This systematic review found that interactions between patients with polycystic ovary syndrome and healthcare professionals often face challenges due to insufficient information sharing, inadequate patient support, and health system barriers.

In this study, patients with telogen effluvium had significantly lower levels of haemoglobin, hematocrit, and serum ferritin compared to healthy controls.

This study on male rats found that finasteride treatment led to the differential expression of several genes in the hypothalamus and hippocampus, hinting at potential links to observed side effects like depression, anxiety, and cognitive disturbances.

This study found that among mother-infant pairs during the COVID-19 pandemic, lower maternal hair cortisol concentrations during pregnancy, combined with higher levels at six weeks postpartum, were associated with poorer infant developmental outcomes at six months.

This study found no significant changes in hair steroid concentrations among preschoolers from before to after the COVID-19 pandemic onset, but noted that children from higher-income families showed a deregulation in stress markers, suggesting increased stress levels.

Scientists made glow-in-the-dark dots from human hair that can detect iron, prevent counterfeiting, and reveal fingerprints.

This study found that hair cortisol concentrations in rhesus macaques were not significantly correlated with hair growth rate, suggesting that cortisol-mediated inhibition of hair growth does not explain higher cortisol levels within the non-stress range.

This article reviews the use of hair cortisol concentration as a biomarker to assess long-term stress in both animals and humans, but it reports no new experimental results.

This study found that injecting drug users attending an oral substitution therapy center often experience skin lesions, which negatively impact their psychosocial health and quality of life.

In this study, stress levels measured through hair cortisol concentration gradually increased in the days before an acute myocardial infarction, peaking 15 days before the episode in male patients.

This study found that tyramine-linked hyaluronan gel effectively supports the 3-D culture of ovarian follicles, facilitating the maturation of functional metaphase II oocytes that can develop into blastocysts.

This study suggests that supplemental testosterone therapy in men with hepatitis C virus may be associated with a modest reduction in hepatocellular carcinoma risk, challenging concerns about its potential to increase cancer risk.

This study observed that female nurses experienced higher hair cortisol concentrations, indicating increased stress, during periods of the COVID-19 pandemic compared to the summer release period.

This article reviews differential diagnosis approaches for 46,XY DSD, proposing a diagnostic algorithm focused on biochemical and genetic data, without presenting new clinical results.

This case report highlights that a patient developed alopecia areata following treatment with sofosbuvir and ribavirin for chronic hepatitis C.

This study found that MPZL3 plays a crucial role in regulating the hair cycle clock in mice, with its absence leading to accelerated hair follicle cycling and suggesting potential therapeutic pathways for alopecia treatment.

This study used Density Functional Theory to calculate finasteride's molecular properties, finding the GGA/PW91 method aligns well with experimental data and identifying key reactive sites for chemical interactions.

In this study, Boswellia administration improved symptoms of DNCB-induced dermatitis in mice and altered hair-related gene expressions, which might positively affect hair cycle disturbances caused by dermatitis.

This study observed that pregnant women experienced an increase in hair cortisol concentrations, with primiparae having significantly higher levels in the last trimester compared to multiparae.

Different drugs are used to manage breeding, prevent or end pregnancy, and treat reproductive issues in dogs and cats.

This study found that a hair growth rate of 0.75 cm/month better matches retrospective cortisol timelines and identified factors influencing hair cortisol content in children and adolescents.

This study found that both Clomiphene Citrate and Human Chorionic Gonadotropin were effective in restoring testosterone levels in men with hypogonadism, as demonstrated in a short-course randomized study.

This study observed that inflammatory stimuli significantly altered gene expression in rat theca-interstitial cells, affecting pathways related to growth and androgen production, which are central features of polycystic ovary syndrome.

This study found that patients taking hydroxychloroquine had a significantly higher likelihood of indeterminate QuantiFERON-TB Gold test results compared to those not on the medication, independent of other immunosuppressive drug use.

This study observed that stress, as indicated by hair cortisol concentrations, may trigger onset of hair loss in alopecia areata, although the findings were not statistically significant.
