This study found that an increased calcium/magnesium ratio in hair and lower chromium concentration were associated with higher insulin resistance in Korean adult males.

This study found that dogs with idiopathic epilepsy had altered hair concentrations of several trace elements, which may suggest a role in the disease's pathophysiology and indicate effects from antiseizure medications.

This study found that higher hair calcium concentration was associated with lower calcium intake and bone mineral density among women over 20 years old in Korea.

This study investigated how dietary copper affects hair pigmentation and mineral concentrations in calves, reporting on copper's influence but not providing definitive results.

This study concluded that mineral element deficiencies in pregnant women may be alleviated with targeted nutrient supplementation, although mutual resistance and promotional effects among the supplements were observed.

This pilot study found no significant relationship between blood and hair mineral concentrations in generally healthy adults, though hair analysis may have potential for assessing long-term mineral trends.

This study found that serum and hair mineral concentrations, including copper and zinc, showed no differences between Alzheimer's patients and their healthy spouses, suggesting no diagnostic utility for Alzheimer's disease.

In this study, researchers found that certain vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms are significantly related to insulin concentration during a glucose tolerance test in young women with hyperandrogenism, but these polymorphisms did not affect bone metabolism or other biochemical parameters.

This study used hair samples to assess mineral levels and found that higher iron status may be associated with an increased risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, while no significant associations were observed for copper and magnesium levels in this cohort.

In this study, researchers observed that genetically identical cloned dogs, when exposed to different environments like an airport and a police station for two years, exhibited significant differences in toxic mineral concentrations and intestinal microbiota composition, suggesting that environment influences physiological traits even among clones.

This study analyzed vegetable crops and found beets and potatoes to have high iron content, suggesting they can meet the daily requirements for essential minerals manganese and iron.

This study found that in visceral-obese Korean adults, hair chromium and selenium levels were inversely associated with insulin resistance, while copper levels showed a positive association.

This review highlights the challenges of using hair mineral analyses as precise indicators of mineral status due to various influencing factors, suggesting they may be informative when combined with other indicators.

In this study, 2.5% mineral-rich spring water showed a potential hair growth-promoting effect in SKH-1 hairless mice, suggesting it may be a novel approach for managing hair loss.

Higher hair levels of calcium and magnesium are linked to higher body weight, while lower levels are linked to worse metabolic health.

This study found that ESR1 gene polymorphisms may be linked to hormonal imbalances in young women with hyperandrogenism, potentially affecting bone mineral density indirectly.

Higher levels of chromium, selenium, and copper in hair are linked to increased insulin resistance in visceral-obese adults.

This study analyzed Sphenodesme involucrata var. paniculata leaves and found high carbohydrate and calcium content, along with several bioactive compounds, supporting their use in traditional medicine for their nutrient-rich properties.

This study found that applying the highest dose of biostimulant improved the fresh yield, leaf area, and ACO2 of hydroponically grown ‘Genovese’ basil, suggesting enhanced productivity with reduced fertilizer use.

This study involving 81 yaks found significant correlations between melatonin, dihydrotestosterone, and immunoglobulin levels in blood serum and mineral content in hair, suggesting these factors may jointly influence yak hair growth and immune status, providing a potential non-invasive indicator of overall health.

This study found that a high-energy shock wave can increase osteogenic activities in human mesenchymal cells, offering insights into potential therapeutic targets for trauma-induced heterotopic ossification.

This review discusses the potential for mood stabilizers, antidepressants, and some antipsychotic and antianxiety drugs to induce alopecia and reports no clinical results.

In this study, researchers used SEM/SDD-EDS to identify waterborne minerals like calcium and aluminum in the scalp hair cuticle of individuals using treated or untreated water for hair washing, finding that prior application of coconut oil or conditioners can prevent calcium uptake.

This article suggests that zinc-dependent factors may play a role in the regulation of the hair follicle cycle and could be involved in the pathogenesis of alopecia areata, but experimental confirmation is needed.

This paper outlines the research plan and current progress of a study analyzing mineral metabolism changes in astronauts by examining hair shafts after long-term space flight, with no new results yet.

This review reports that topical applications of onion-based preparations, like onion juice and oil, may support hair regrowth in patchy alopecia areata and improve scalp health through antioxidant and antimicrobial effects, although standardized formulations and clinical trials are limited.

This study observed that cattle grazing all-grass or grass-legume pastures showed varying mineral concentrations in hair, blood, urine, and liver, with significant correlations between hair and serum magnesium and copper levels.

This article reviews the association between psychopharmaceuticals and medication-induced alopecia, noting that hair regrowth typically occurs after discontinuing or reducing the medication, while mineral supplements' effectiveness remains unclear.

This study describes cases of diffuse alopecia and thyroid alterations in sheep, linking selenium and zinc deficiencies to decreased serum T3 and T4 concentrations and related skin conditions.

This study found that women with lower hair loss six months after bariatric surgery consumed more zinc and iron and showed less compromise in the nutritional status of these minerals compared to women with more significant hair loss.
