This study reviewed evidence suggesting that certain types of wounds might stimulate localized hair growth in humans, noting anecdotal reports and mixed efficacy of treatments like microneedling and lasers for androgenetic alopecia, but emphasized that further research is needed.

This study found that Datura metel leaf and flower extracts could improve hair growth, with leaf extracts prompting quicker growth and mixed extracts enhancing overall regrowth effectiveness in animal models.

This study found that the Massachusetts General Hospital Hairpulling Scale has acceptable internal consistency and divergent validity for assessing Trichotillomania severity, but demonstrated inadequate test-retest reliability and mixed convergent validity.

In this study, adding TPGS to a minoxidil formulation improved local retention and reduced systemic absorption in certain solvent mixes, particularly with a balance of alcohol and PEG 400.

This study presented the case of an 81-year-old woman with 1-year history of scalp erosions and pustules, initially suspected to be infectious, but skin biopsy revealed impetiginized scale-crust, epidermal atrophy, dermal fibrosis, and mixed inflammatory infiltrate, leading to scarring alopecia.

In this study, eight healthy dogs showed hair and skin damage, including hair shaft fractures and skin irritation, after repeated application of Clairol Hair Dye Flaxen Blonde.

This study found that estrogen, through estrogen receptors, can regulate the expression of the HOXC13 gene involved in hair follicle development, with MLL3 histone methylase playing a collaborative role.

This study suggests that the MLKL-targeting inhibitor Necrosulfonamide promotes hair growth and counteracts DHT inhibition by activating Wnt signaling in hair follicle cells, revealing potential avenues for anti-alopecia drug development.

This study found that cows with alopecia, ill-thrift, and infertility exhibited significant decreases in serum copper, zinc, calcium, inorganic phosphorus, magnesium, and hematological measures, indicating moderate microcytic, hypochromic anemia.

In this case report, a 2.5-year-old cat with scabies and bacterial pneumonia showed significant improvement in symptoms and hair regrowth following a treatment regimen including ivermectin, amoxicillin with clavulanic acid, diphenhydramine, methylprednisolone, and supportive therapies over 100 days.

This study found that the herbal extract CS-10-H, like minoxidil, significantly improved hair growth, density, and thickness in a mouse alopecia model.

This study observed that women with polycystic ovary syndrome showed hormonal changes and higher post-meal lipemia compared to healthy controls, alongside endothelial dysfunction potentially detectable before insulin resistance.

This study found that fermented camel milk containing 50% pumpkin seed milk significantly improved oxidative stress markers in rats and enhanced sensory and physicochemical properties compared to untreated groups.

This study found that the combined use of sugarcane fibre and keratinolytic enzymes reduced hairball excretion in cats.

In this study of captive rhesus macaques, social hair plucking was related to kinship, showed characteristics of both prosocial and aggressive behaviors, and was associated with alopecia and hair cortisol concentrations in females.

This study observed that in captive rhesus macaques, social hair plucking is linked to alopecia and has kinship patterns similar to grooming, suggesting it may be socially influenced, though the health impacts and stress hormone (cortisol) changes involved remain uncertain.

In this case report, a combination of ozone therapy, low-level laser, and herbal medicine gel effectively improved healing in a dog with chronic bite wounds.

This editorial highlighted concerns about the newly launched voluntary register for non-surgical cosmetic practitioners in the UK, reporting dissatisfaction from aesthetic doctors, dentists, and nurses who feel it inadequately protects the public by grouping medical professionals with non-medically trained individuals without mandatory regulation.

This case report documents the first successful management of accidental minoxidil toxicosis in a dog, resulting in full recovery after treatment with supportive care, including medications for blood pressure and potential toxicity mitigation.

This report diagnosed a mass below a dog's eye as desmoplastic tricholemmoma based on histopathological and immunohistochemical findings.

In this study, ketoconazole treatment successfully cured a dog with erythematous epilation caused by Chaetomium globosum, with new hair growth observed 9 weeks later.

This study found that both transgender and cisgender individuals experience similar psychological and cosmetic benefits from surgical body modifications, but cisgender individuals typically have more autonomy and support in pursuing these surgeries.

This case report describes the first documented occurrence of a free-floating left atrial thrombus in a dog, highlighting the lack of specific therapeutic strategies for treating intracardiac thrombi in dogs.

This chapter discusses various substances and therapies for dermatological applications, including heliotherapy, UVB, khellin, and others, but reports no new research findings.

In this case report, a persistent skin infection in a Bullykutta dog was resolved with a 10-day treatment regimen of Sulphamethoxazole, trimethoprim, omega fatty acids, and topical therapy after previous treatments failed.

This case report documents the first known occurrence of an epidermoid cyst in the mammary gland of a 12-year-old female dog. The study emphasizes its benign nature but notes the potential for misdiagnosis and importance for pathologists to consider it during examinations.

This study reports that treating a feline with progressive pruritus, alopecia, and FIV infection with imidacloprid and moxidectin resulted in remission of clinical signs and elimination of Demodex cati mites, as confirmed by parasitological examination and genetic sequencing.

This study suggests that keratin peptide signatures in human hair shafts may potentially be used to distinguish gender and ethnicity, although further validation with larger samples is needed.
