This study suggests that measuring caffeine concentration in plasma and scalp hair can be a useful indicator of individual liver metabolic capacity among those consuming typical daily caffeine amounts.

In this study, ethanol was found to enhance GABAergic neurosteroid production and inhibit long-term potentiation in rat hippocampal slices via unblocked NMDA receptor activation, effects reversible by specific inhibitors.

This study found that 10% carbamide peroxide significantly reduced acne lesions compared to a vehicle solution, suggesting it as an effective and safe alternative to benzoyl peroxide for treating mild to moderate acne.

This case report observed that pulmonary arterial hypertension in a man with severe vitamin C deficiency resolved after vitamin C supplementation, suggesting a potential role of vitamin C in managing this condition.

This study found that scalp hypothermia effectively prevented chemotherapy-induced alopecia in 57.3% of breast cancer patients, with side effects such as a feeling of cold and slight headaches reported in 16% of cases.

The article discusses a complication that occurred during a follicular unit extraction hair restoration procedure, presenting an opportunity for the author to learn from the experience and reports no new research findings.

This case report highlights an interest in exploring the relationship between serum levels of sodium valproate and hair loss, though no case reports currently establish this link.

This report details a rare case of late-onset, bilateral nevus comedonicus on the eyelids in a 79-year-old man, discussing its clinical presentation and histopathologic features without presenting new research findings.

This literature review reported that scalp hypothermia significantly decreases the occurrence of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, increasing effectiveness by 2.7-fold in controlled clinical trials and 3.9-fold in randomized trials, and highlighted a need for standard guidelines for its use.

This report describes a neurometabolic disorder linked to gain-of-function variants in the ODC1 gene, characterized by developmental delay, ectodermal abnormalities, and notable facial and neuroimaging features.

This report presents a case of hereditary elliptocytosis in a 37-year-old woman with iron deficiency anemia, identifying a high percentage of elliptocytes in her blood after treatment.

In this study, researchers found that patients who previously had hair restoration surgery by a different surgeon were more likely to experience postoperative hyperesthesia.

In this study, oral care products like foams and a spray, similar to tap water, improved salivary pH and oral clearance rates after exposure to Coca-Cola® in young adults, but no significant differences were found between these products and tap water.

Caffeine can damage hearing cells and affect hearing recovery after ear trauma.

This study found that preconditioning human hair follicle-derived stem cells with valproic acid enhanced their survival and migration in ischemic-like conditions by activating autophagy and inhibiting the AKT/mTOR pathway, suggesting this approach could improve stem cell therapies for ischemic stroke.

This case study describes a 29-year-old woman whose severe liver injury was primarily attributed to chronic arsenic exposure, highlighting the importance of recognizing metal toxicity in patient care.

This study explains that congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency presents as a continuous phenotype and involves symptoms ranging from virilization to accelerated growth in children, with diagnosis relying on clinical, biochemical, and genetic evaluation.

In this study, hypoxic conditions were found to enhance stemness in hair follicle neural crest stem cells, while inhibiting the Hippo pathway significantly decreased their proliferation.

In this case report, an atypical form of tinea favosa in an 11-year-old girl was initially misdiagnosed, highlighting the importance of mycological examination for accurate diagnosis, especially when diffuse scalp scaling is present.

This study found that two-thirds of patients with persistent chronic daily headache showed significant improvement with divalproex sodium treatment, although common side effects included weight gain, tremor, hair loss, and nausea.

This report describes a Cronkhite-Canada syndrome patient with severe sepsis and disseminated intravascular coagulation successfully treated using combined therapies, including recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin.

This case report describes a 4-year-old African American boy with tinea capitis characterized by itchy, scaly patches and hair loss, diagnosed through microscopic examination after initial treatments were only partially effective.

This report is the first to associate Cronkhite-Canada syndrome with multiple myeloma, describing regenerative pseudopolyps in a 58-year-old woman rather than true adenomatous polyps.

This case report describes a woman diagnosed with paraneoplastic autoimmune multiorgan syndrome associated with Castleman's disease, leading to constrictive bronchiolitis and multiple organ involvement despite corticosteroid treatment.

This study found that corticosterone promotes neurosteroid synthesis in hippocampal neurons, which can lead to ethanol-mediated synaptic dysfunction even at moderate ethanol levels, potentially contributing to stress-related cognitive impairment from alcohol.

This case report details a 77-year-old man with Parkinson's disease and androgenic alopecia who underwent deep brain stimulation surgery, involving frontal scalp incisions and subcutaneous wire tunneling.

This study reports a case of fatal HHV-6 encephalitis and vasculitis in a previously healthy 49-year-old male, highlighting the occurrence of this condition even in individuals without typical risk factors, such as immunocompromised status.

This study reports a case of pressure alopecia in a 23-year-old man following prolonged head immobilization after a motorcycle accident, resulting in permanent cicatricial alopecia.

This study found that under hypoxic conditions, hair follicle-associated pluripotent stem cells differentiated into cardiac muscle cells at a higher rate compared to normoxic conditions.
