Curly and straight hair differ in how their internal fibers are arranged.

This study found that hair luster decreases with age in Japanese females, primarily due to an irregular increase in fiber curvature which affects hair alignment.

This study concluded that the curliness of human hair, regardless of ethnicity, originates from the inhomogeneous internal nanostructure due to differences in the distribution of two types of cortices.

This study introduced a new adaptive microrhizotron for non-destructive observation of pepper root traits, finding that specific installation patterns significantly enhanced root interception probability while effectively measuring root architecture for plant research.

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

This review discusses the critical parameters for MALDI IMS sample preparation in skin analysis and highlights its applications in wound healing, neoplasia, and infection research, but reports no new clinical results.

Irradiating the whole central nervous system can lead to over 50% of patients with cerebellar medulloblastoma surviving three years.

This study utilized polarized light microscopy to examine hair shafts in ten children with rare genetic disorders, such as Netherton syndrome and ectodermal dysplasia, providing valuable diagnostic insights into hair thickness, composition, and structural irregularities associated with these conditions.

COVID-19 can cause different types of hair loss, with telogen effluvium being the most common.

This study found significant differences in the spread of sebum on hair among Chinese men with greasy and non-greasy scalps, despite similar sebum amounts at the root region post-shampoo.

This review highlights therapeutic options for inducing puberty in males and females with delayed puberty, emphasizing the need for larger trials to establish the best approaches.

Hair treatments like bleaching increase friction by exposing tiny pores on the hair surface.

This study observed that maize plants enhance phosphorus acquisition by promoting both root hair growth and lateral root development in response to localized nutrient patches, highlighting a complementary root trait trade-off.

This study reports that the modified lateral brow lift effectively elevates the lateral brow with minimal complications, preserving scalp sensory innervation.

This study observed that densely packed follicular unit grafts using the lateral slit technique have high growth rates, even at 72 grafts/cm², contradicting previous findings with older methods.

This study reviewed the outcomes of a limited incision lateral brow lift technique, reporting that the procedure safely resolved lateral brow hooding with a low revision rate in 150 patients, and observed no permanent nerve injuries.

The study suggests that lateral oblique forehead lines result from muscle contractions and can be effectively treated with onabotulinum toxin A, rather than being caused by sleeping position.

This study reported that an open surgical technique for lateral brow lifts produced satisfactory results in most patients (94.41%) and was associated with long-lasting effects and some complications.

In this study, older age was found to predict lateral hairline recession in TGNB AMAB individuals, while each year of feminizing hormone therapy in patients over 30 also predicted a decrease in lateral forehead length by 0.07 cm.

This study examined a case of vascular complication following the use of hyaluronic acid-based fillers in lateral temporal lifting, resulting in livedo reticularis, alopecia, and painful injection area requiring three months of treatment.

This study reports high growth rates in densely packed follicular unit grafts using the lateral slit technique, with a 98.6% growth rate at 72 grafts/cm2.

In this study, researchers engineered ventral skin organoids (vSkOs) with specific cellular compositions and signaling environments to generate human amnion-like tissues called Amnioids, offering new tools for studying human development and potential regenerative therapies.

This case report describes a 26-year-old woman with a giant cell tumor in the left proximal fibula, presenting atypically alongside pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism features, which remain rare in such contexts.

This review discusses the use of the zebrafish lateral line system as a model to study hair cell loss, protection, and regeneration, with potential implications for human hearing research.

This report describes three cases of postoperative necrosis following bilateral lateral reduction surgery, leading the author to discontinue the procedure and advise caution to others.

This study identified new genes and compounds affecting hair cell survival during ototoxin exposure using the zebrafish model, potentially aiding in understanding and preventing hearing loss and balance disorders in humans.

This retrospective study in Duhok, Iraq, found that a minimal incision temporal brow lift achieved higher satisfaction rates in women and patients under local anesthesia, though complications like chronic postoperative pain occurred. Further research is needed to assess long-term efficacy of this brow elevation method.

In this study using zebrafish, four bisbenzylisoquinoline derivatives were found to protect hair cells from aminoglycoside-induced damage without reducing antibiotic efficacy, potentially leading to therapies for patients undergoing such treatments.

This review assesses the potential of dutasteride as a promising treatment for ALS due to its reported neuroprotective, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects, but emphasizes that clinical studies are needed for confirmation.

This study identified a new variety of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia that includes patchy hair loss on the lateral and posterior scalp in African-American women, which could be misdiagnosed as traction alopecia without dermatoscopy and pathology.
