This study reported the development of a novel and reliable liquid chromatographic method to measure testosterone and epitestosterone in human urine, offering sensitive detection for doping control.

In this study, a Chinese Han family with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets was found to have a homozygous missense mutation in the VDR gene, and the affected individual uniquely responded well to treatment with oral calcium and low-dose calcitriol.

This study used numerical models to explore the cooling power required by different scalp cooling devices to prevent chemotherapy-induced hair loss, finding that coolant temperature significantly influences scalp tissue temperatures.

This study developed a new method for detecting 30 hormones in anti-aging functional foods, demonstrating good sensitivity and reliability, and identified seven hormones in four out of 14 samples tested.

This study found that salivary testosterone levels were significantly lower in oligospermic and azoospermic men compared to normal men, suggesting its potential use in assessing male androgen status.

This study utilized a UHPLC-HRMS method to identify eight active pharmaceutical ingredients, such as ketoconazole and minoxidil, in 26 out of 100 analyzed cosmetic products.

This study reports that the metanephrine content was significantly higher in patients with alopecia areata compared to those without the condition.

Researchers developed a quick and sensitive way to measure finasteride in blood using a small sample size.

This study reported that autologous hair transplantation is a safe and effective treatment for children with cicatricial alopecia, achieving an average hair survival rate of 85.3% and high satisfaction among family members, with minimal complications observed.

In this study, the authors found that applying hypobaric pressure to the skin significantly increases the transdermal permeation of large molecules by enhancing diffusion, despite the associated skin stretching and hair follicle enlargement not fully explaining this effect.

This study developed a fast and sensitive ultra-high performance liquid chromatography method to quantify ketoconazole in antidandruff emulsions, showing comparable results to labeled concentrations.

This study found that ethanol extract of Syzygium aromaticum (clove) leaves significantly improved lipid profiles and increased body weight in testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia rats, suggesting potential anti-hyperlipidemic effects and modulation of body weight through metabolic activity.

This study examined the stability of two 5α-reductase inhibitors in Tectona grandis extracts, finding that they are more stable in acidic environments and degrade rapidly under heat and light unless protected, suggesting the need for careful storage when developing anti-hair loss medications.

This study found that platelet-rich gel is a simple and effective non-surgical method for healing exposed skull injuries, resulting in complete healing with minimal scars and sparse hair growth in all patients.

This study found that both 5-ALA and Photofrin can effectively destroy human microvascular endothelial cells in vitro and cause tissue necrosis in vivo, with Photofrin showing greater efficacy at lower concentrations or power densities.

Researchers developed a method to detect hormone-blocking drugs in wastewater and found them in Beijing's sewage, suggesting they can survive sewage treatment.

This review discusses the most popular non-surgical cosmetic procedures for men and highlights the importance of considering sex-specific factors for optimal treatment, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the advantages of robotic hair transplantation using the ARTAS iX robot compared to manual Follicular Unit Extraction, emphasizing enhanced precision, speed, and hair preservation capabilities, and reports no clinical results.

This study found that hair dyes significantly affect DNA sequence analysis, with the organic extraction method performing better on hair shafts and the prepFiler kit yielding higher success for follicle-included samples.

This article reviews the biological and physical principles of laser hair removal and reports that current laser systems do not consistently achieve permanent hair follicle destruction across treated areas.

This study presents a DNA-analytical method that can reliably identify and differentiate cashmere, fine wool, yak, and camel hair fibers in both untreated and processed samples.

This study reports that the completeness of DNA degradation in hair during cornification varies among individuals and affects the success rates of forensic hair DNA analysis.

This study concluded that the process of mummification disfigures facial features, making identification challenging, but commercial shrunken heads retain more defining features compared to ceremonial ones.

This study found that a new method using enzymatic laundry powder effectively extracts DNA from hair shafts, showing promise for genome-wide DNA analyses.

This review suggests that standardized herbal shampoos may offer a safe and sustainable alternative to synthetic products due to their natural saponins and multifunctional benefits, though challenges in consistency and shelf-life persist.

This study concluded that rosemary essential oil rich in terpenes was successfully extracted using vacuum-assisted hydrodistillation, and Solid Phase Micro Extraction was superior for identifying volatile compounds compared to direct injection.

This review discusses phytotherapy options for managing benign prostatic hyperplasia, noting some herbal agents show promise in trials for mild-moderate symptoms but more evidence is needed for others.

In this meta-analysis, researchers found that moxibustion combined with oriental herbal medicine may improve pregnancy rates and other outcomes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome compared to western medication alone; however, the evidence is limited by the poor quality of included studies.

This review discusses various chromatographic methods for analyzing finasteride in biological fluids and provides no clinical findings, focusing on detection techniques for different concentration levels.

This review article discusses recent progress in the extraction and potential health benefits of oligosaccharides from brown seaweeds, especially focusing on their antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and prebiotic properties, and possible applications in managing metabolic syndrome.
