This study found that FDA-approved low-level light/laser therapy devices significantly increased hair density in individuals with pattern hair loss compared to sham devices.

This review discusses the role of scalp imaging techniques in trichology for researching drug delivery and toxicology, without presenting new clinical results.

In this study, a potentiometric titration method was developed for determining minoxidil, achieving recoveries of 97.4% to 98.7%, and it showed agreement with a chromatographic procedure at a 90% confidence level.

This review explores the immunological aspects of epidermal differentiation in loricrin knockout mice, offering insights into keratinization and potential intrinsic factors affecting immune function, but provides no new clinical findings.

This study developed a simple and reliable technique to quantify hair loss in mice, potentially enhancing assessment and comparison of new alopecia therapies in preclinical research.

This study found that the HairCheck® device, demonstrating high correlation between its Hair Mass Index and hair characteristics such as strand number and diameter, may be an effective tool for assessing hair mass changes in alopecia patients.

This study reports that hair analysis could potentially monitor metformin use in diabetic patients, suggesting a possible correlation between daily dose and concentration in dark hair but not in light hair.

This study found that lower GPX4 mRNA levels in polymorphonuclear neutrophils of systemic lupus erythematosus patients were negatively associated with disease activity and serological markers, suggesting a diagnostic value for GPX4 mRNA.

This study found that a new 12-point scale provided a more precise measurement system for evaluating hair damage and improvement after hair care product use compared to a 5-point scale.

This article discusses a new device for visualizing and quantifying skin distribution of a radioactively labelled compound, but reports no new clinical results.

This study using high-performance liquid chromatography reported that mice with more diverse gut microbiota had higher levels of specific compounds in hair compared to those with less diversity, with stress affecting certain plasma levels.

The researchers reported a case of falsely elevated testosterone in a teen, due to immunoassay interference, demonstrating that liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry provides more accurate testosterone measurement, emphasizing the need for thorough analysis when clinical results are inconsistent.

In this study, researchers analyzed the skin proteome of Alpine Merino sheep to identify proteins and pathways related to wool fiber diameter, finding that cyclic adenosine monophosphate and certain signaling pathways may play a role in this trait.

This study found that high-speed optical coherence tomography may be a promising non-invasive tool for analyzing human hair conditions.

This study suggests that hair analysis could serve as a diagnostic tool for detecting calcium channel activity, which influences hair calcium levels and may indicate calcium deficiency or related disease states.

This study found that permanent wave lotion I extracts proteins from human hair, with molecular weights ranging from 5,000 to 65,000, which may elucidate hair damage mechanisms.
