This study found that applying 2% Minoxidil lotion twice daily for four months improved hair diameter and density in individuals with eyebrow hypotrichosis, suggesting it is an effective and well-tolerated treatment; mild side effects like itching and burning were observed in 22.72% of participants.

In this study, researchers developed and validated a method to quantify pyrrolizidine alkaloids in honey and flour, increasing alkaloid recovery rates through successive extractions, achieving up to 86% recovery for honey and 76% for flour.

This study found that minoxidil sulfate did not enhance hair follicle growth or cell proliferation in isolated human hair follicles at concentrations of 0.1, 1, and 10 μg/ml.

This study found that adding 7% Ecklonia cava extract to oxidative hair dyes significantly reduced their cytotoxicity and oxidative stress without affecting color performance.

This study found that both crude Spirulina extract and C-phycocyanin showed similar effects on keratinocyte proliferation and wound healing, with C-phycocyanin performing better in tissue regeneration in vivo on the 7th day.

In this study, researchers developed a hair tonic using 7.5% Aloe vera extract and 2.5% licorice extract, finding that the formula with 15% ethanol showed optimum activity by promoting hair growth and increased hair weight in rabbits over 28 days.

This study found that Botox® was most effective at a 25 U/ml concentration, while Dysport® and Neurobloc® were optimal at 100 U/ml for producing anhidrotic areas after injections.

This study found that patients experienced less pain when using a 1-mL syringe compared to a 3-mL syringe, despite both having the same needle size.

This study reported that a newly developed UHPLC-MS/MS method detected illegal synthetic hair-growth compounds in 10% of 76 hair-growth products, highlighting the need for ongoing monitoring to protect public health.

This study suggests that intralesional triamcinolone acetonide at a concentration of 5 mg/mL may offer the best balance of effectiveness and safety for treating focal alopecia areata.

This study at a medical center in Eastern Taiwan found that female alopecia has diverse causes, including nutrient deficiencies, autoimmune diseases, psychological stress, thyroid conditions, and COVID-19 vaccination, with iron deficiency affecting 70.3% of cases.

This study suggests that raising the lower normal serum ferritin level to 50 ng/mL may improve organ functions even when hemoglobin levels are normal.

This study found that local application of nano-liposome-bound EGF at 333.3μg/ml postponed hair growth in rats, unlike lower concentrations or free form.

In this study, researchers found that a 2.5 mg/mL concentration of triamcinolone acetonide was more effective than a 1.25 mg/mL concentration for promoting hair regrowth in patients with limited patchy alopecia areata, with significant differences in regrowth observed after six months.

This study found that silver nanoparticles synthesized using Lens culinaris extract exhibited potent anticancer activity against MCF-7, HCT-116, and HepG2 cell lines and significant antimicrobial effects against Klebsiella pneumoniae and Acinetobacter baumannii.

In this study, researchers assessed vitamin D3 levels in adolescents, finding a suboptimal average of 22.00 ng/ml, and demonstrated that supplementing with 1000 IU/day of vitamin D3 significantly raised levels and improved physical and mental potential over two months.

In this laboratory study, the methanolic extract of Eclipta alba demonstrated significant anthelmintic activity against earthworms (Pheretima posthuma), causing paralysis and death at doses of 50-100 mg/ml, with stronger effects observed at higher concentrations compared to the standard treatment, albendazole.
