In this laboratory study, the methanolic extract of Eclipta alba demonstrated significant anthelmintic activity against earthworms (Pheretima posthuma), causing paralysis and death at doses of 50-100 mg/ml, with stronger effects observed at higher concentrations compared to the standard treatment, albendazole.

This study reviewed previous research and found that while mesotherapy appears to improve outcomes in treating androgenetic alopecia without significant adverse effects, the supporting studies were of poor quality, and further research is necessary to confirm its efficacy and safety.

This review highlights the promising potential of mesotherapy for delivering dutasteride and minoxidil as treatments for androgenetic alopecia, emphasizing the need for more research on drug preparation, delivery, and maintenance to establish its safety and effectiveness.

This systematic review concluded that mesotherapy shows potential for improving hair growth outcomes, yet lacks standardized regimens and requires further large-scale trials to establish its efficacy and safe use.

In this study, 30 patients with alopecia areata received intralesional methotrexate injections, resulting in significant hair regrowth and decreased levels of lesional TNF-α after three months, suggesting its effectiveness as a treatment.

This study reported that in animal studies of androgenetic alopecia, a biodegradable microneedle patch releasing glutamic acid promoted hair regeneration more effectively than daily minoxidil, with higher hair follicle counts and less frequent dosing, showing the potential for clinical application.

This study found that a chemotherapy regimen combining CMFVP and ACP treatments for unresectable metastatic breast cancer yielded a 66.7% overall response rate, with premenopausal women responding more favorably than postmenopausal women.

This study found that the computer-controlled RV-01 scalp cooling device helped prevent significant hair loss in metastatic breast cancer patients treated with eribulin, with none of the 16 patients requiring a wig and experiencing minimal discomfort.

This study found that iontophoresis significantly enhances the skin penetration of magnesium salt of L-ascorbic acid 2-phosphate, especially in hairy mice, compared to passive diffusion.

This study found that bufotalinin, derived from Merremia peltata leaves, may enhance hair growth by acting as a potential androgen receptor antagonist in rabbits.

This study developed a micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography method for determining minoxidil in Rogaine and generic products, offering a simple and efficient alternative to HPLC.

This study found that a combination of low-fluence Q-switched 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser, hydroquinone cream, and oral tranexamic acid showed promising results for Riehl’s melanosis in Asian patients, with no serious adverse events reported.

The researchers reported that a newly developed ionic liquid-based microemulsion significantly improved the local delivery of copper peptides in mice, enhancing hair growth-related factor activation while offering a safer, non-invasive alternative to existing treatments for hair loss.

In this study, 27 pediatric patients with alopecia areata treated with methotrexate showed statistically significant improvement in hair regrowth between 12-15 months, suggesting the medication's delayed but effective results, though common side effects included mood changes and gastrointestinal discomfort.

This study introduced hydrogel microneedles loaded with palladium nanoparticles, which utilize the inherent cytotoxicity of polyethyleneimine to enhance the effectiveness of doxorubicin in treating melanoma, achieving a tumor inhibition rate of up to 98% in a murine model.

In this study, researchers addressed the limitations of adenosine's practical application in treating inflammation, oxidative stress, and tissue repair due to its poor water solubility and low transdermal permeability. Results are not reported in the abstract.

This case report suggests that combining platelet-rich plasma therapy with mesotherapy may effectively increase hair density and improve scalp health in complex cases of androgenetic alopecia.

This case report examines a patient with myasthenia gravis, invasive thymoma, and paraneoplastic pemphigus associated with alopecia areata, notably without the usual mucosal involvement.

This pilot study suggests that topical melatonin may protect hair follicle stem cells from paclitaxel-induced damage, potentially preventing chemotherapy-induced alopecia and enhancing the effects of scalp cooling caps.

This case report details a 23-year-old woman who was poisoned with thallium by a colleague and treated with activated charcoal and Prussian blue.

This case series reports that electrochemotherapy with intravenous bleomycin effectively resolved cutaneous mast cell tumors in four cats, showing no tumor recurrence during follow-up, except for new lesions in one cat, and minimal local toxicity.

In AGA mouse models, this study found that the combination of nickel–copper nanozymes and minoxidil in dissolvable microneedles significantly enhanced hair regeneration and improved the hair follicle microenvironment by reducing reactive oxygen species and increasing vascular density, compared to minoxidil alone.

In this animal study, agmatine exhibited a protective effect against seizures related to hormone fluctuations, with results suggesting that its anticonvulsant properties may involve interactions with central neurosteroids in female rats experiencing progesterone withdrawal.

In this study, the authors highlight the potential of intradermal microinjections of dutasteride as an adjunctive therapy for androgenetic alopecia, though they note that information on its effectiveness remains limited.

This study found that a thyroid hormone receptor ẞ subtype-selective thyromimetic was effective in promoting hair growth in mouse and monkey models when applied topically.

In this survey of dermatologists, pimozide was most commonly identified as the preferred first-line antipsychotic for treating delusions of parasitosis, followed by risperidone.

This study found that a conditioner containing 18-MEA and SPDA can improve hair's smoothness and reduce flyaways, enhancing hair manageability.

In this laboratory study, a novel minoxidil-loaded microneedle patch demonstrated potential for treating alopecia areata by promoting slow drug release and reducing application frequency, while exhibiting antibacterial properties to prevent infection during use.

This literature review reported that scalp hypothermia significantly decreases the occurrence of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, increasing effectiveness by 2.7-fold in controlled clinical trials and 3.9-fold in randomized trials, and highlighted a need for standard guidelines for its use.
