This review details the 2023 International Guideline update for assessing and managing polycystic ovary syndrome, which provides evidence-based recommendations to improve care and patient outcomes but notes the remaining low to moderate quality of evidence.

This article proposes a hypothesis that KRT75, a protein found in hair follicles, was evolutionarily co-opted by ameloblasts during the development of prismatic enamel in synapsids, but reports no new results.

This study found that treating damaged hair with maleic-modified amino silicone oil created a highly hydrophobic surface, reducing water content and improving hair's mechanical properties and thermal stability.

This review discusses recent advances in hair regeneration strategies, including mechanical stimulation and complementary therapies like MSC transplantation and platelet-rich plasma, and reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that fermented grapeseed oil may enhance hair permeability and improve strength and color retention in chemically treated hair compared to regular grapeseed or silicone oils.

This study explored the molecular factors behind delayed wound healing in obesity, highlighting that systemic changes like inflammation and collagen deposition alterations contribute to sustained skin inflammation and reduced mechanical resistance.

This study achieved regeneration of hair follicle-like structures and erector muscle of hair in vitro by simulating cellular organization and applying mechanical stimuli.

This study developed a composite product from decellularized human placental connective tissue matrix and placental extract, finding that the combination showed improved biochemical and mechanical properties compared to each component alone, suggesting its potential use for treating chronic and deeper wounds.

This study found that different polypeptides, including KP peptide and hydrolyzed keratin, can improve the mechanical properties of damaged hair under varying conditions, with reduction environments and cysteine content influencing their effectiveness.

This study conducted in situ tensile loading experiments with atomic force microscopy to observe how conditioning treatments affect the tensile response of virgin, chemically damaged, and mechanically damaged Caucasian hair.

This review discusses the experimental targets of fetal wound healing and evaluates existing therapies for scarless healing in adult skin, but reports no new research findings.

This study found that crosslinking buffalo gelatin with different methods can modify its properties and potential as a skin substitute, though double-crosslinking may increase immunogenicity slightly.

This review explores the biomechanical factors and signaling systems, like Wnt, involved in the pathophysiology of psoriatic nail lesions and reports no new results.

This review discusses the role of transient receptor potential channels in pathological scarification and suggests these channels as potential targets for its prevention and treatment, although it reports no new clinical findings.

This study introduces a method for determining the orientation of collagen fibers in skin by analyzing the anisotropic shape of hair pores, which may aid in skin grafting procedures.

This review discusses how dental pulp stem cells and their derivatives may accelerate skin wound healing by modulating inflammation, promoting angiogenesis, optimizing extracellular matrix structure, and enhancing tissue formation, with implications for translating these findings into therapies for skin and mucosal repair.

This review from JAAD Reviews provides a comprehensive overview of hypertrichosis, discussing its diagnosis, treatment options like topical and laser therapies, and special psychosocial considerations for pediatric patients to better support clinicians and researchers in managing this condition.

In this study, researchers developed grooved microneedles made from hyaluronic acid for precise transdermal drug delivery, achieving accurate dosage with a high probability of delivery (98% or more) by using an easy-to-operate applicator for shearing force.

In this study on rats, CBF injections demonstrated significant wound healing effects and improved recovery after skin cryoablation, similar to the effects observed with Actovegin.

This study found that shed hairs from the root significantly outnumber broken hairs during hair fall, particularly in Chinese male and female participants, with shedding predominantly occurring during washing.

In this review, researchers discuss how mitochondria-targeted biophysical priming of autologous biologics, through methods like photobiomodulation and ultrasound, can potentially enhance skin rejuvenation and wound repair by modulating mitochondrial function in skin cells.

This study established a model of heat-damaged hair to assess hair care products, finding that daily hair drying for a month causes notable cuticle lifting, reduced mechanical properties, and increased protein release, and the model simulates even more severe damage.
