In this study, the bending stiffness of human hair was linked to the varying proportions of para-like versus ortho-like cortical cells within the hair fiber.

This case report highlights the rare co-occurrence of Pili Annulati and Trichorrhexis Nodosa in a Syrian woman, underlining the need for further research into their relationship and treatment.

This study found that Krtap11-1 may play an important role in keratin-bundle assembly in the hair cortex, influencing the physical properties of hair.

This study identified five distinct scalp whorl patterns, noting that white males have the most distinct whorls, while African Americans and women more often exhibit a diffusion pattern.

This review discusses the use of trichoscopy for diagnosing mimickers of patterned hair loss and assessing donor sites before hair transplant surgery, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that in Merino-Southdown cross sheep, the presence of the C variant of the KRTAP26-1 gene was associated with higher wool quality, including increased wool yield and staple length.

This study illustrates the severe neonatal clinical presentation of Netherton syndrome, which can be fatal despite intensive care, highlighting a specific homozygous mutation (c.1431-12G > A) associated with lethal cases.

High kallistatin levels in diabetics worsen wound healing by blocking important cell signals.

In this study, researchers identified an autosomal dominant mutation (E402K) in exon 7 of the KRT86 gene as a cause of Monilethrix in a large family from Turkey.

This study observed that transgenic mice expressing keratin K10 under bovine K6beta control developed severe oral abnormalities, suggesting keratin composition changes can affect the physiology of epithelial cells, especially in the oral mucosa.

This article describes a new instrument, the KD spreader, designed to help novice physicians perform follicular unit extraction hair transplantation with reduced trauma and operator fatigue, but it does not report new clinical results.

A mutation in the KRT74 gene causes woolly hair by affecting hair texture.

This study found that the Wnt inhibitor Dkk4 may play a role in regulating hair follicle development through a feedback loop with canonical Wnt signaling pathways.

This report identified longitudinal grooves in the hair shafts of four children, diagnosing them with uncombable-hair syndrome.

This study examined two cases of bubble hair deformity using light and electron microscopy, suggesting that trauma to the hair shaft may contribute to this condition.

This study observed that mink dermal collagen fibrils undergo structural changes during the hair cycle, with increased fiber thickness and bundle density as minks grow.

This article discusses a novel approach to treating recurrent priapism in sickle cell anemia using Finasteride, but provides no new clinical findings.

In this study, Urtica dioica L. infusions were used to replace water in k-carrageenan hydrogels, resulting in stronger networks with reduced syneresis and altered textural properties, and the highest antioxidant potential was achieved with specific infusion conditions.

This study found that mechanical damage from grooming and environmental factors contributes to crack formation and eventual breakage in African-American hair, highlighting the need for continuous care.

This abstract provides a graphic illustrating that mice lacking the Sgk3 gene exhibit thin coats and abnormal hair, suggesting a role for Sgk3 kinase in hair follicle growth, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that careful light microscopy using fluid-mounted hair improves detection of the pili annulati phenotype, which varies widely in expression and affects hair fragility.

The conclusion cannot be provided because the document is not accessible.

This study identified a missense mutation in the keratin 71 gene as the cause of autosomal dominant woolly hair/hypotrichosis in a Japanese family, marking the first human mutation in KRT71 linked to a hair disorder.

This report describes a sudden hair matting incident after shampooing a hairpiece and suggests that weathered hairs might explain this unusual event.

This article reviews Netherton syndrome, focusing on its genetic basis, clinical presentation, and treatment options, and reports no clinical results; the authors mention potential benefits of targeted therapies and gene therapy.

This letter describes a case of a 22-year-old woman with ichthyosis serpentina and related symptoms, suggesting it as a variant form of ichthyosis associated with bamboo hair, without necessarily including atopic features.

This study reviews three years of experience using Finasteride to treat recurrent priapism in sickle cell anemia and reports no new research findings.
