This review discusses pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatments for androgenetic alopecia, noting that current medications like finasteride and minoxidil can slow hair loss but only partially restore hair growth, with early treatment offering better outcomes.

This review discusses the importance of omega-3 fatty acids for human health and explores recent advancements in genetically modifying plants to produce these essential nutrients, but reports no new results.

This study presented 3D images of human dermis, revealing fewer elastic fibers near hair follicles compared to other regions, which may aid future skin engineering efforts.

This review discusses various techniques for evaluating hair shedding and alopecia but reports no new clinical results. The authors emphasize the value of specific clinical and instrumental methods in assessing hair growth.

This study highlights the need for standardized preclinical murine models to improve the translation of wound healing research to human clinical applications, specifically noting variations in diabetes duration, animal sex, and assessment methods on healing outcomes in rat models.

This review discusses the mechanisms involved in wound healing and explores the potential of nanomaterials as a promising approach to managing chronic wounds, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that a 1,550-nm fractional erbium-glass laser may stimulate hair growth in both an alopecia mouse model and human subjects with male pattern hair loss, though further research is needed to determine its clinical applications.

This review discusses the diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to furunculosis, emphasizing the importance of hygiene and microbiological testing to prevent and manage recurrent infections, and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, female androgenic alopecia (grade II or III on Ludwig's scale) was found to be common among Finnish women aged 63, and several markers of insulin resistance, along with paternal history of alopecia, were associated with an increased risk.

This study observed a microbial shift on the scalp of Alopecia areata patients, characterized by an increase in Propionibacterium acnes and a decrease in Staphylococcus epidermidis, compared to healthy controls.

This review revisits mechanisms underlying acne lesion formation and suggests that preventing comedone development requires controlling critical factors in the pilosebaceous follicle before acne involvement.

This study found that permanent waving treatment induces structural changes in the cortex proteins of white human hair, significantly reducing its tensile strength without altering the S-S band intensity.

This narrative review outlines the diverse symptoms and possible mechanisms behind long COVID, such as immune dysregulation and viral persistence, while discussing ongoing and potential treatments, highlighting the current lack of proven effective therapies.

This article reviews the use of trichoscopy for diagnosing common hair and scalp diseases and introduces a new classification for specific skin surface abnormalities, without presenting new clinical results.

This study demonstrates that spatially resolved IR and Raman imaging can effectively reveal the molecular structure and composition of untreated human hair, providing insights into its chemistry and structural integrity.

In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, daily use of the Nutrafol® Women's Capsules nutraceutical significantly increased the number of terminal and vellus hairs and improved hair quality in women with self-perceived thinning over six months, without any reported adverse events.

This review explores the infundibulum's role and importance in skin diseases and emphasizes the need for further research into its biology and potential therapeutic targeting, but it presents no new findings.

This study found that the S. epidermidis A/C lineage is more pathogenic due to its metabolic and genomic versatility, which allows it to adapt quickly from a commensal to a pathogenic lifestyle.

This study reports that six shampoo brands in Saudi Arabia generally comply with the national specifications, demonstrating good physicochemical properties such as foam stability and pH levels.

The researchers developed semi-dissolving microneedle patches using TEMPO-oxidized bacterial cellulose nanofibers, which allow effective transdermal drug delivery by forming micro-channels for large drug quantities, overcoming traditional microneedles' low drug loading.

This study suggests that prolactin has complex, gender- and location-dependent effects on human hair follicles, promoting hair growth in female frontotemporal scalp areas while inhibiting it in male occipital regions.

This viewpoint essay discusses the potential of fullerene C60 derivatives as novel treatment agents in dermatology, highlighting their ability to act as both radical scavengers and oxygen radical generators.

This study reports that microencapsulation of therapeutic cells with contrast agents enables visualization across multiple imaging modalities, potentially improving cellular immunoprotection and tracking after transplantation.

This study found that applying BMP2 stimulated limited regeneration of the amputated P2 bone in mice, but only when applied during a specific "regeneration window" after injury.

This article reviews modern hair transplantation techniques, noting that while many innovations have improved natural-looking results and expanded candidate eligibility, some may have hidden drawbacks, and it reports no new results.

This study used 3D imaging to reveal age-related reductions in the volumes and connectivity of dermal papillae and rete ridges at the dermal-epidermal junction, which are not fully apparent in 2D examinations.

This review examines the progression of hair restoration techniques from early methods to modern follicular unit transplantation and presents no new clinical results.

This study aimed to identify trichoscopic features that help differentiate between tinea capitis and alopecia areata in children, enhancing diagnosis and treatment decisions visually and non-invasively.

This review discusses recent advancements in cutaneous drug delivery technologies and the potential of transfollicular pathways for improved treatment of skin conditions, but reports no clinical results.

This study demonstrated that human sebaceous glands can be successfully transplanted onto nude mice, where androgen stimulation increases gland volume, cell size, and labeling index.
