This study found that excessive heat caused the most significant structural changes in hair from Caucasian and Afro samples, especially when combined with other treatments like bleaching and straightening.

This study found that laboratory-formulated natural shampoos condition hair better than commercial herbal shampoos, as shown by SEM micrograph analysis of hair microstructure.

This study observed that mink dermal collagen fibrils undergo structural changes during the hair cycle, with increased fiber thickness and bundle density as minks grow.

This study found that in vivo confocal scanning laser microscopy accurately quantifies neogenic hair follicles in mice, producing results similar to histology while avoiding fixation artifacts.

Reflectance confocal microscopy is a useful, non-invasive tool for diagnosing some skin diseases, with potential for future improvements.

This study found that acne lesion formation involves early hyperkeratinization and inflammation around hair follicles, creating a self-sustaining cycle that may progressively worsen acne.

The study found that a polymer treatment changes the charge on hair surfaces, making bleached hair smoother and less porous.

In this study, a square pulse, low-fluence IPL device used at home significantly reduced terminal hair count by 87% six months post-treatment, with evidence of hair miniaturization similar to professional laser treatments.

This study presented a case of tinea capitis in a 4-year-old without typical symptoms and traced the infection to Microsporum canis carried by domestic cats, highlighting the need for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment, especially in households with pets.

This study identified specific reflectance confocal microscopy features that help differentiate scarring from non-scarring alopecia, providing a non-invasive diagnostic tool.

This case report describes how a 23-year-old woman experienced eyebrow thinning and hair loss linked to cosmetic use, with diagnostic tests confirming follicular damage. Discontinuing the product led to eyebrow regrowth, highlighting potential risks from cosmetics and the value of non-invasive diagnostics for evaluation.

This study found differences in melanin content and gene expression in skin under black and white hair of giant pandas, providing a basis for further research on hair color distribution and skin diseases.

This study observed distinct variations in hair medulla patterns among people with different Ayurvedic Prakruti types, linking stronger hair integrity to Kapha-dominant types and weaker, fragmented medullae to Vata and Pitta-dominant types, potentially aiding in Dosha-specific hair care and assessment.

This study utilized advanced imaging techniques to quantify hair damage and dye uptake dynamics, revealing that compound penetration in hair is influenced by molecule size and lipophilicity.

This study suggests that holes found in mature hair fibers may be linked to daily hair care actions and the removal of extractable substances.

This study concluded that combining the Shumin treatment instrument with oral doxycycline provides better clinical outcomes for rosacea than combining red light therapy with doxycycline, while both regimens improved quality-of-life scores and reduced Demodex counts.

This article reviews two cases of monilethrix in siblings, detailing their clinical and dermatoscopic characteristics, but reports no new findings.

In this study, researchers analyzed adverse events linked to avacopan using FDA data, finding no high-priority safety concerns but identifying five potential new adverse events, including alopecia, primarily among American patients, and noting a higher risk of liver dysfunction in Japanese patients.

In this study, a child's diagnosis of Silver-Russell syndrome was confirmed through phenotype data, genetic testing, and the exclusion of other developmental conditions, revealing a need for a multidisciplinary care approach.

This case report describes an 11-month-old boy with Menkes disease, highlighting symptoms such as developmental delays and poor therapeutic response due to significant brain and vascular abnormalities.

Human hair structure varies by ethnicity, and certain treatments can improve hair condition and appearance.

This study found that high-dose oral zinc significantly influences hair growth in mice, showing both inhibition and promotion effects depending on the timing and duration of administration.

According to this worldwide systematic review, psoriasis is a prevalent disease with adult prevalence ranging from 0.53% to 11.48%, more common in older populations and with substantial knowledge gaps in low and middle-income countries.

This study found that CK15 is an unreliable marker for assessing bulge zone integrity in cicatricial alopecia follicles due to its altered expression in diseased conditions.

Permanent hair loss after a stem cell transplant can be a sign of chronic immune system attack on the scalp.

This study reported that belimumab helped over 40% of active systemic lupus erythematosus patients achieve low disease activity, with more than 20% able to stop glucocorticoids completely.

This study describes a new mite species from marmots in a city park in Washington, noting that infested marmots displayed significant hair loss and tissue abnormalities.

Hair diameter diversity is a key sign for diagnosing and managing male pattern baldness.

In this study, various types of minor hair follicle damage were observed during follicular unit extraction, with paring and hair bulb injury being more apparent under microscopic examination.

This study found that using engineered skin with PGA-collagen scaffolds, combined with hair follicle stem cells and other cell types, effectively repaired full-thickness skin defects in nude mice.
