This study observed that diabetic ketoacidosis is common among type-1 diabetics, particularly with initial disease presentation or treatment discontinuation, and is more frequent in females and those with less educated or related parents.

This review discusses telogen effluvium, including its triggers, clinical presentations, and management options, and does not report new research findings, emphasizing the need for identification and exclusion of underlying causes.

This study discovered that a specific G to C mutation in the ornithine aminotransferase gene is linked to the retarded hair growth phenotype in mice and may serve as a model for human gyrate atrophy.

This study reviews current research to better understand how various environmental and lifestyle factors, collectively known as the exposome, impact hair health and aging, acknowledging that the detailed mechanisms remain partially understood.

This article presents a comprehensive overview of hair microscopy techniques and their diagnostic potential for systemic and cutaneous disorders, emphasizing its usefulness in resource-limited settings and highlighting the underutilization of this non-invasive method due to lack of awareness.

In this systematic review, researchers linked higher vitamin D and iron levels to reduced alopecia, while increased alcoholic and sugary beverage intake was correlated with greater hair loss, highlighting the impact of diet on hair health.
