This study identified new geometric and mechanical parameters for curly and kinky/coily hair, which may inform more effective personal care products tailored to these hair types.

This study found that miRNAs increase and target mRNAs and lncRNAs decrease from the anagen to telogen phase in mouse hair follicles, and these ceRNA networks may play a role in hair follicle cycling.

This study found that skin computed tomography may effectively identify epidermoid cysts by revealing features consistent with histopathology, potentially serving as a non-invasive diagnostic alternative to biopsies.

This study introduces the Hair Cell Analysis Toolbox (HCAT), a machine-learning software that automates the analysis of cochlear hair cells, enabling unbiased and comprehensive imaging data interpretation.

Hair shaft malformation contributes to Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia.

In this study, deep phenotyping of 68 patients with XPD gene defects successfully separated individuals by clinical diagnosis and survival status, potentially improving diagnosis and prognosis for xeroderma pigmentosum and trichothiodystrophy.

NB-002 is a promising new topical treatment for fungal nail infections, showing better results than a non-medicated option.

This study found that Mf-rich-fiber in human hair underwent significantly greater degradation by proteases than Ma-rich-fiber, especially when treated with Proteinase K.

Hair changes could indicate neurological diseases and help monitor treatment.

In this study, researchers found that using a handheld digital microscope, hair diameter was a better determinant of perceived alopecia severity in androgenetic alopecia than hair density.

This study found that desmosomal cadherin desmoglein 3 loses its rigidity upon Ca2+ removal, regardless of desmosome functional state, suggesting a central role for signaling in hyper-adhesion.

This study developed a model using homogenization-based framework to quantify solvent and solute flow across Janus membranes, aiming to better understand interface phenomena like osmosis and phoresis by examining micro- and macro-scale behaviors.

This review summarizes recent advancements in follicular targeting for drug delivery via hair follicles and calls for pilot studies in humans to explore potential clinical applications.

This study found that proteomic analysis can distinguish hair samples across different ethnicities and body regions based on keratin protein levels, which may aid forensic hair identification.

This study found that the mechanical stiffening of the human hair follicle along the first millimeter is linked to changes in the keratin network architecture and composition during keratinization.

This study concluded that bleach treatment partly transforms the hydrophobic top layer of human hair cuticles into a hydrophilic surface with clustered cysteic acid, visualized at the nano-scale using dynamic Chemical Force Microscopy.

This study found that keratin derivatives with functionalized thiol groups improved binding to both natural and bleached hair fibers, suggesting a promising strategy for enhancing keratin's durability in hair repair.

This study found that human hair cuticle and cortex have different protein structures, with beta-sheet and disorder configurations in the cuticle and alpha-helical structures in the cortex.

This review explores new theories, diagnostic tools, and management strategies for primary cicatricial alopecia but reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that corkscrew hairs in tinea capitis result from internal hair damage by Trichophyton violaceum and external resistance from scalp scales.

Dermoscopy is useful for many health professionals, not just dermatologists, in improving skin condition diagnoses and reducing unnecessary biopsies.

This study used ultrahigh-resolution optical coherence tomography to observe hair shaft structures, finding melanin granules absent only in white hair, which may explain color differences between black and white hair.

This study provides a comprehensive overview of the current state and emerging trends in SD (seborrheic dermatitis) research, aimed at aiding clinical practitioners and researchers in understanding valuable insights for decision-making and identifying future research directions.

This study found that topical metformin was as effective as triple combination cream in reducing melasma severity, with minimal adverse events.

This review outlines the practical use of reflectance confocal microscopy in dermatology, detailing its applications and considerations for diagnosing various skin conditions, but reports no new findings.

Sorafenib may cause hair loss in a way similar to alopecia areata.

This article reviews advances in the histologic evaluation of alopecia and hair-related disorders, without presenting new clinical results.

This review discusses the causes of hair shaft abnormalities and highlights the role of cosmetic products in treating hair disorders, though it reports no new clinical findings.

Hair shaft changes may be linked to CCCA, but their role is unclear.
