This review discusses the potential benefits of hyperthermia in cancer therapy, combined with natural compounds, to enhance treatment efficacy and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that therapeutic isolated limb perfusion with melphalan for in-transit melanoma metastases resulted in a high response rate but was associated with some systemic toxicity, including nausea, vomiting, and transient bone marrow depression.

This study found therapeutic isolated limb perfusion with melphalan to be effective for in-transit melanoma metastases on a limb, with a high response rate and transient systemic toxicity.

Cooling the scalp below 22°C before and during chemotherapy can help prevent hair loss.

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 article reviews the pathophysiology of chemotherapy-induced alopecia and reports that scalp cooling can reduce hair loss by 50% in patients with early breast cancer receiving chemotherapy, without compromising survival or increasing scalp metastasis risk.

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.

This study found that inhaling toluene reduces core temperature in mice, with GABA receptors and neurosteroids involved at 4000 ppm, but different mechanisms contributing at 6000 ppm.

This review discusses photothermal agent hybrids in hydrogels for antibacterial action, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis in tissue engineering, but reports no new experimental findings.

This case study describes a Doberman Pinscher with a unique alopecic variant of chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus that progressed to systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting a rare autoimmune alopecia form in dogs.

This review examines the differences in dermatology practices between Europe and North America, noting that European dermatologists often prioritize evaluating patients' psychosocial factors and utilize nondrug treatments, unlike their North American counterparts.

This article reviews key developments in pediatric dermatology for 2017, including consensus recommendations, novel genetic findings, and treatment insights for conditions like psoriasis and vascular malformations, without providing new clinical trial results.

This study found that active telethermography could help identify cancerization fields in individuals with actinic keratosis by detecting hyperthermic halos around tumors, which showed significant changes after treatment with a photolyase device.

This study concluded that pretreatment with finasteride or bicalutamide did not significantly affect the heat sensitivity of prostate cancer cells, although some cell lines showed increased viability at higher temperatures.

This article discusses the relationship between sedentary behavior and chronic disease, proposing that "physical inactivity disease" may be a non-permissive brain disorder with various physiological effects, but it reports no new research results.

This report describes two cases of postoperative alopecia following oral surgery, highlighting potential risk factors such as head positioning and prolonged operative time, and suggests prevention strategies.

This report presents the first successful management of minoxidil toxicosis in a cat, detailing the clinical progression and treatment plan used to resolve the condition.

This case report highlights that in severe illnesses like sepsis, myxedema coma can occur with less elevated TSH levels than typical for primary hypothyroidism, likely due to inflammatory cytokines affecting TSH secretion, even when central lesions are absent.

This literature study reviews the consequences of hair loss due to chemotherapy and nursing care interventions but reports no new clinical results.

This article proposes that transnasal evaporative cooling could advance understanding of various physiological phenomena, but reports no new clinical results; potential research directions are suggested for this concept.

This article reviews drug-induced hair changes, highlighting that while many drugs are occasionally linked to hair loss, this connection has been conclusively established for only a few, and such hair loss is typically reversible.

This narrative review evaluates evidence that regional hypothermia can reduce oral, hair, eye, and nail complications from chemotherapy, but highlights the need for more research to address study limitations.

In this study, scalp hypothermia with the Theracool™ cooling machine was largely ineffective for preventing alopecia in breast cancer patients undergoing a chemotherapeutic regimen including cyclophosphamide and anthracyclines.

This study describes permanent scalp alopecia in patients receiving chemotherapy, radiation, or both, and highlights the need for further research to identify causative factors and mitigation strategies.

Vitamin E in the diet might help protect against hair loss caused by the chemotherapy drug doxorubicin in rabbits.

Scalp hypothermia can prevent chemotherapy-induced hair loss but is not suitable for all patients, and more research is needed to improve prevention methods.

This review summarizes 19 patents filed since 2000 for treating or preventing chemotherapy-induced alopecia, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers found that using the Orbis II scalp cooling device in a single-center setting effectively prevented severe chemotherapy-induced alopecia in 73% of patients with various cancer types, though the authors recommend further studies to explore broader applicability and influencing factors.

This study found that the computer-controlled RV-01 scalp cooling device helped prevent significant hair loss in metastatic breast cancer patients treated with eribulin, with none of the 16 patients requiring a wig and experiencing minimal discomfort.

This study developed multifunctional microneedle patches with CTB nanozymes that successfully eradicated MRSA infections in wounds by combining near-infrared laser-induced nitric oxide release and local hyperthermia, while also regulating oxidative stress, inflammation, and angiogenesis through specific signaling pathways.
