This study found that nanoparticles can penetrate the skin, but artifacts produced during specimen preparation complicate accurate observation, and proposed a method for reducing errors in imaging quantum dots as tracers.

This study found that calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D supplementation altered hair calcium and magnesium content in perimenopausal women, suggesting an early indicator of metabolic changes linked to skeletal mineralization.

This study found that dissolving microneedles loaded with platinum nanozymes induced faster hair growth in an androgenetic alopecia model than daily minoxidil applications, with no significant safety concerns.

This article discusses zinc deficiency in animal nutrition and highlights the need for zinc supplementation in livestock diets; it reports no new study results.

This study found that 42% of red yeast rice dietary supplements did not list monacolin concentrations on their labels, and only half of those that did contained the declared amounts.

This article discusses the relationship between zinc, chromium, and magnesium in hair and metabolic syndrome diseases, without reporting new experimental findings.

This study explored non-invasive methods for monitoring low molecular weight biomarkers on the skin's surface, concluding that certain amino acid ratios, such as Phe/Trp, could serve as potential indicators of skin inflammation and cancer.

This study found that autistic children had significantly lower iron levels and higher selenium levels in their hair compared to healthy peers, with variations observed between autistic boys and girls.

Many Korean preschool children have low zinc levels, which may affect their growth, and zinc supplements could help.

This review discusses the growing use of scalp hair for elemental analysis in various fields and highlights advancements in analysis techniques, including the future potential of laser ablation ICP-MS, but reports no new clinical results.

Hair from different ethnic groups affects soil nutrient release differently.

In this study, a potentiometric titration method was developed for determining minoxidil, achieving recoveries of 97.4% to 98.7%, and it showed agreement with a chromatographic procedure at a 90% confidence level.

This study found that women with diffuse alopecia exhibited deficiencies in several trace elements, including sulfur, iron, and potassium, while men showed deficiencies in calcium, sulfur, and zinc.

The researchers reported a case of falsely elevated testosterone in a teen, due to immunoassay interference, demonstrating that liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry provides more accurate testosterone measurement, emphasizing the need for thorough analysis when clinical results are inconsistent.

This study developed a new method using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to measure multiple steroid hormones in hair, requiring significantly fewer strands than previous methods, with high accuracy and precision.

In this study, silver oxide-based nanoparticles were used to ionize analytes and detect specific target molecules through adduct formation with silver isotopes, facilitating signal correlation with these molecules.

This article discusses the dual nature of selenium, highlighting its essential metabolic roles and potential toxicity at high doses, and reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that OM-X® supplementation effectively prevented adverse biological changes caused by vitamin C deficiency in SMP30/GNL KO mice, improving energy maintenance, antioxidant capacity, and protein synthesis.

This review discusses the potential of a low-dose comprehensive cyclical nutrient therapy for enhancing hair growth and strengthening hair roots, but reports no new experimental results.

In this study, Bushman women in various life stages had higher levels of iron and zinc in their hair compared to Bantu and American mothers, with iron deficiency anemia being rare among them.

This study developed a validated method to detect prohibited drugs in dietary supplements, finding minoxidil, triaminodil, and finasteride in some samples.

This study suggests hair diameter may indicate protein status in children if the sampling location on the head is controlled, noting inconsistencies in past research.

This review highlights that while nanoparticle-loaded dissolving microneedles have considerable promise for enhancing transdermal drug delivery, progress is delayed by insufficient understanding of their in vivo behavior, which the authors emphasize as crucial for advancing clinical applications.

This study found that the FIA-amperometric method for minoxidil quantification in pharmaceutical preparations provided accurate results comparable to the conventional UV technique, indicating no systematic errors.

This article discusses misconceptions around mineral nutrition in beef cattle and emphasizes that sub-clinical deficiencies or toxicities, rather than overt symptoms, often cause economic losses, but it reports no new findings.

Microfluidic models improve testing for aging, wound healing, and oral tissue, reducing animal testing.

In this study, researchers developed and validated a rapid and robust chromatographic method to assess the concentration of Minoxidil and Finasteride in a new topical formulation for alopecia, demonstrating its ability to distinguish between different types of formulations using in vitro diffusion data.

This report suggests that correcting nutritional deficiencies may improve hair quality in patients with Monilethrix and similar hair shaft disorders, though it is not a cure.
