This study examines various methodological factors affecting hair cortisol concentration analysis, finding inconsistent results on the impact of factors like resuspension solution, hair weight, extraction duration, and hair-cutting method.

This article proposes a methodology for selecting hair extension technology that aligns with natural hair structure and aesthetic goals, suggesting the best results are achieved by matching technique to hair's mechanical capacity.

This study tested the acute toxicity of Ficus platyphylla methanol leaf extract in Wistar rats and found no mortality or significant liver enzyme changes at doses up to 5000 mg/kg, suggesting a high margin of acute safety and supporting its traditional use under short-term exposure.

This study found that the methanol leaf extract of Ficus platyphylla demonstrated a high margin of acute safety in Wistar rats, showing minimal risk under short-term exposure with no mortality at doses up to 5000 mg/kg and no significant changes in liver enzyme activities.

This review discusses MRSA in dogs and its public health impact, highlighting interspecies transmission and the need for improved infection control and biosecurity measures, but reports no new experimental results.

This case study reported that a 40-year-old woman with Graves' disease developed severe thrombocytopenia after starting methimazole, suggesting a rare but serious risk of methimazole-induced immune thrombocytopenia and underscoring the need for close monitoring.

This study examined the use of medical dermapigmentation to restore lip appearance after traumatic injuries, finding that a staged approach effectively camouflages scar tissue, enhances symmetry, and improves psychological well-being, demonstrating benefits in a clinical case of a dog bite.

In this study, combining ablative fractional microneedle radiofrequency with oral methylprednisolone was found to enhance hair density and mature hair rates in patients with alopecia areata better than oral methylprednisolone alone, though some adverse effects and increased hair shedding were noted over time.

In this study, both methotrexate gel and betamethasone lotion were found to be effective and safe treatments for localized alopecia areata, with similar overall response rates. However, methotrexate gel had a higher incidence of local side effects, such as irritant dermatitis and itching.

In this clinical study involving individuals with localized alopecia areata, TrA injections were found to significantly outperform MTX, leading to better hair regrowth and higher patient satisfaction, though both treatments had similar mild side effects.

IL-17 inhibitors are more effective than methotrexate in preventing psoriatic arthritis in psoriasis patients.

This study compared oral tofacitinib and methotrexate in treating moderate-to-severe alopecia areata, finding that tofacitinib was more effective at reducing SALT scores and improving scalp hair assessment PRO scores, though both treatments reduced psychological distress similarly without serious adverse effects.

This study found that both tofacitinib and methotrexate effectively reduced hair loss and psychological distress in patients with moderate-to-severe alopecia areata, but tofacitinib showed much greater efficacy. Both treatments had similar safety profiles, with no serious adverse effects reported.

This case study reports significant improvements in joint pain and hair regrowth in a 31-year-old female with alopecia universalis, psoriasis vulgaris, and psoriatic arthritis using a combination of tofacitinib and methotrexate after other treatments failed.

This case report describes a 30-year-old patient with extensive alopecia areata, successfully treated with a combination of oral dexamethasone, methotrexate, minoxidil hair lotion, and folic acid over 48 weeks, resulting in satisfactory improvement.

This review highlights the potential for using the Y chromosome in epigenetic analyses to better understand male-specific aging and disease mechanisms.

In this case report, significant hair regrowth was achieved in a young Filipino woman with severe diffuse alopecia areata using a combination of corticosteroids and methotrexate, highlighting the value of traditional therapies in regions with limited access to newer treatments.

This study at Gajra Raja Medical College found that topical methotrexate with tretinoin was more effective but not significantly better than betamethasone with tretinoin for treating alopecia areata over six months, with similar safety profiles between the treatments.

This study found that the PLEE method increased hair protein extraction efficiency threefold and that bleaching hair reduced the coverage of keratin and associated proteins, leading to poorer hair quality, though it did not affect the overall protein identification.

In this study, researchers found that methylation of the SRD5A2 gene in blood and tissue samples can serve as a biomarker to predict men's clinical response to finasteride treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia, offering a non-invasive method for assessing potential treatment success.

In this laboratory study, researchers found that a methanol extract of peach kernel improved the growth and viability of human hair follicle dermal papilla cells, suggesting its potential efficacy for hair growth and care through cell proliferation and signaling pathways activation.

This study found that applying transfer learning with CNN architectures like AlexNet, VGG16, and ResNet50 achieved 99% accuracy in classifying multiclass hair disorders, suggesting a potential technological aid for dermatologists in diagnosing and treating hair conditions.

This source offers an in-depth review of Methandrostenolone, examining its pharmacology, performance-enhancing effects, potential health risks, and legal status in various countries, while emphasizing the scientific evidence surrounding its use and misuse.

This study investigated m6A RNA modification in hair follicle development, finding that Hycole rabbits displayed longer hair, higher primary hair follicle ratios, and thicker skin compared to Rex rabbits, while also identifying key differential genes and pathways involved in hair growth.

The authors of this meta-analysis suggest that intralesional injections of methotrexate and vitamin D3 may serve as safe and effective alternatives to triamcinolone acetonide for treating localized alopecia areata in adults, with trichoscopy aiding early detection of treatment effects.

Methylprednisolone treatment helps most alopecia areata patients, but young age, extensive hair loss, and low vitamin D can affect results.

This randomized controlled trial found that methotrexate, particularly when combined with low-dose prednisone, was effective in promoting hair regrowth in patients with alopecia areata totalis, with the combination treatment showing higher efficacy and faster results.

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 comparative clinical study found no statistically significant difference in the remission and recurrence rates between intralesional triamcinolone acetonide and methotrexate for treating localized alopecia areata, suggesting similar efficacy between the two treatments.
