This study found that female adolescents with pilonidal sinus disease had significantly higher insulin levels and HOMA-IR scores, suggesting hyperinsulinemia may be a risk factor for the condition.

This study found that EGF, IGF-Ⅰ, and IGF-Ⅰ R are extensively expressed in mink skin and hair follicles, suggesting these genes play crucial roles in their development.

This study found that the maximum infrared temperature of laser-irradiated hair depends on melanin type, with eumelanin-rich hair reaching higher temperatures than pheomelanin-containing hair.

The researchers reported that zinc carbonate nanoparticles stabilized with polyvinylpyrrolidone did not show local irritant or skin-resorptive effects in preclinical tests on rabbits and rats.

In this study, researchers found that hair fibers exposed to bleaching and UV irradiation displayed significantly more damage, including increased adhesion and surface heterogeneity, compared to untreated hair, highlighting a synergistic degradation pathway affecting the hair cuticle's integrity.

This study found that using human hair follicle dermal papilla cells, 53BP1 focus counting can estimate radiation doses from 50 mGy after 5 hours, and focus size analysis refines dose estimation for doses ≥ 500 mGy up to 96 hours.

In a study using a rat model of hypertrophic scars, researchers found that gamma-irradiated human amniotic fluid improved wound healing, collagen remodelling, immune response, and scar characteristics more effectively than saline or non-irradiated amniotic fluid, indicating its potential for clinical applications in scar management.

This study surveyed Irish dermatologists and found that while JAK inhibitors show promising efficacy for alopecia areata, there is significant variation in practice due to the lack of specific guidelines and long-term safety data for these treatments.

This study found that a specially designed water-in-oil microemulsion containing Panax notoginseng saponins improved hair density and other hair health indicators in mice with telogen effluvium and androgenetic alopecia, offering a promising multi-mechanism strategy for alopecia treatment with potentially fewer side effects than traditional methods.

In this study using a rabbit model, higher incidences of intraoperative floppy iris syndrome were observed in animals given the α-blocker tamsulosin, suggesting a potential association with increased iris billowing during eye surgery.

This study established an animal model using UV-irradiated C57BL/6 mice to assess hair luster, reporting that UV exposure alters keratin-associated protein gene expression, and suggested potential for developing effective hair care products by evaluating treatments like oral minoxidil.

In this study, herbal hair tonic made from Usada Bali ingredients significantly increased hair growth in mice without causing skin irritation compared to a negative control.

This study found that repeated use of a protein hair conditioner, followed by hot air and gamma irradiation, may lower serum collagen I and increase heat shock protein concentrations in rats, suggesting potential cumulative risks.

This study found that using rind-based dosimetric techniques in brain irradiation significantly reduced scalp dose and alopecia compared to standard treatment plans, with 60% of patients experiencing no hair loss.

This study investigated the role of serum iron, ferritin, zinc, and folic acid levels in women with diffuse hair loss but reports no findings.

This thesis found that inhibiting IL-17 and IL-23 improved chronic wound healing in obese, diabetic mice by promoting a pro-healing macrophage phenotype, while ST2 signaling was also necessary for effective wound healing.

This study found that a green tea extract gel was stable across various temperatures, did not cause eye irritation, and significantly increased eyelash growth compared to a placebo after two months of use in human volunteers.

This study found that combining UVB irradiation with anti-CD154 antibody improves the survival of hair follicle allografts in a humanized mouse model, suggesting a synergistic effect for allogeneic hair transplantation.

This study reported that autogenic hair follicle transplantation provided good cosmetic results and improved quality of life for patients with post-irradiation alopecia, despite delayed hair regrowth due to blood supply deficits.

This study found that female patients with androgenetic alopecia had significantly lower serum zinc and iron levels compared to healthy controls, suggesting supplementation may be beneficial.

This review discusses risk factors for intraoperative floppy iris syndrome, emphasizing tamsulosin and other α1 blockers, and underscores the importance of preoperative screening to mitigate surgical complications, but it reports no new results.

Radiation therapy with a higher dose for the brain improves survival in cerebellar medulloblastoma.

Keratin-based hydrogels from human hair and wool are promising for wound dressings and are more eco-friendly.

This study found that belimumab helped achieve low disease activity in over 40% of systemic lupus erythematosus patients in real-life settings, alongside reduced corticosteroid use and fewer flares.

This case report suggests that oral finasteride, used for benign prostatic hyperplasia, may be associated with intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome during cataract surgery.

This study found that far-infrared radiation preconditioning significantly enhanced the proliferation, survival, and migration of bone marrow-derived stem cells in vitro, indicating potential therapeutic benefits for cardiac ischemia treatment.

This review describes techniques to manage intraoperative floppy iris syndrome linked to alpha-1 blocker use in cataract surgery, highlighting the need for patient disclosure of medication use but reports no new clinical results.

This study successfully used ATR FT-IR spectroscopy to uniquely identify or differentiate human hairs by detecting specific spectral features associated with individual hair characteristics and cosmetic residues on hair surfaces.

This study found that selected polymeric pretreatments on hair can significantly reduce breakage and protect against thermal damage from hot flat irons by maintaining cuticle integrity and moisture.

This case report suggests a possible association between long-term finasteride use for male pattern baldness and the development of cataracts and intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome in a patient.
