This study is the first to document alopecia in Guadalupe fur seals in the Northeast Pacific Ocean, finding that it may result from nutritional stress due to higher sea surface temperatures.

This study assessed the potential for Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion power in Fiji, finding higher power output and efficiency during summer due to greater temperature differences between surface and deep sea waters.

This review discusses how faecal pollution contributes to antimicrobial resistance in surface water and highlights the need for standardized methods and better wastewater management but reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that some keratin-associated proteins with antecedents found in non-haired animals may have roles beyond hair characteristics, possibly contributing to the evolution of hair follicles.

In this study, researchers found that the primary cause of slippage and detachment of keratin capsules in hair extensions is the re-contamination by oily residues from the hairdresser's hands, rather than the use of hair care products like masks or conditioners.

This study developed a hat-shaped device with wearable sensors to estimate scalp moisture content using machine learning, demonstrating that it can provide accurate measurements comparable to professional scalp analyzers without the need for high-cost equipment.

This study found that sterile fucoidan promotes T cell proliferation but reduces differentiation at higher concentrations and suppresses osteogenic differentiation in co-cultured environments.

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the applications of electrospun nanofibers in non-invasive medical fields, highlighting their potential for health monitoring, personal protection, thermal regulation, and wound care, and discusses the challenges and future development paths for this technology.

This article reviews the role of skin surface lipid in mediating environmental stressors and discusses potential therapeutic interventions, reporting no new experimental findings.

In this study, mozuku-derived ultra-high-molecular-weight fucoidan was found to inhibit the growth of skin bacteria like Staphylococcus aureus but not other tested bacteria such as Cutibacterium acnes.

This study found that Malassezia pachydermatis was present on both lesion and healthy skin in a California sea lion, with significantly more colonies on the lesion site.

This study demonstrated that herbal therapy with oil extract increased triglyceride content in dog hair, suggesting potential benefits on coat quality that require further investigation.

In this study, researchers developed a regression model that reasonably predicts consumer-perceived hair breakage using various parameters such as hair smoothness, detangling forces, extensional strength, and hair density among Indian women.

This paper discusses advancements in forensic hair analysis, emphasizing a novel DART–HRMS method that improves the accuracy and efficiency of detecting drug use timelines.

This study found high levels of toxic heavy metals in water sources of mining communities in Abakaliki, Nigeria, posing potential health risks including Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases.

This study found that Carbon Quantum Dots effectively detected and quantified Co²⁺ ions and methylcobalamin in tap water with high sensitivity and recovery rates between 95% and 105%.

This study investigated neonatal mortality and health threats to Guadalupe fur seals in Mexico's San Benito Archipelago, finding a 29.52% mortality rate largely due to trauma and emaciation/infectious disease, with high rates of alopecia syndrome and entanglement linked to marine debris, primarily from local sources.

This review highlights the promising biomedical applications of marine-derived polysaccharides, proteins, and peptides, particularly in drug delivery and wound healing. It discusses their potential as biomaterials in creating nanocarriers, hydrogels, and more, alongside fabrication strategies, regulatory challenges, and sustainability considerations.

This study explored Black Sea shark liver oil-based emulgels, finding that the addition of borage oil (Gel 2) enhanced the anti-inflammatory and wound healing properties compared to shark liver oil alone (Gel 1) and a reference diclofenac gel, suggesting promising eco-friendly applications in dermatocosmetics.

This study demonstrated the usefulness of fully implantable loggers in measuring heart rate and sub-blubber temperature in captive harbour seals, with findings suggesting lower heart rates during molting and differences in temperature regulation between adults and sub-adults.

This study developed a biodegradable nonwoven textile using a starch-based biopolymer and fruit extracts, resulting in materials that are stronger, more hydrophilic, and capable of releasing beneficial compounds over 72 hours, positioning them for potential use in medical, healthcare, and cosmetic applications.

This study suggests that the protease HAT-L4 plays a significant role in maintaining epidermal barrier function to prevent body fluid loss, as its absence in mice led to increased fluid loss and higher mortality.

This study found that a combination of photoprotector and nighttime formulations with essential oils improved skin barrier function and structural characteristics in young men's oily, acne-prone, and photoaged skin.

This review discusses the diverse applications of algae in non-energy sectors, including pharmaceuticals, food ingredients, pigments, and cosmetics, and reports no new experimental results.

This study presents the first report on cloning and characterizing the full-length cDNA of SRD5A1 in Indian catfish (Clarias magur), revealing expression differences across reproductive phases and increased expression post-Ovatide administration in ovaries and testis.

This review summarizes the chemical composition and pharmacological properties of Teak (Tectona grandis) but presents no new research findings, emphasizing its use in traditional medicine and therapeutic potentials.

This study characterized the physical-chemical properties of Eclipta alba and identified compounds in the plant that could support its use in developing hair loss treatments.

Skin changes can indicate starvation and nutritional deficiencies in anorexia nervosa.

This study found that the HPCH-based formulation P-08–016 may facilitate finasteride deposition in the dermis, potentially offering an alternative to systemic therapy by minimizing systemic absorption.

This study found that Codium sp. cultivated in IMTA systems can be a sustainable source of bioactive ingredients for skin care products, with various fractions providing photoprotective, wound-healing, and antimicrobial benefits in vitro.
