This study highlights a comprehensive approach for authenticating and assessing the quality of herbal medicines using a combination of physiological, morphological, and molecular techniques, including HPTLC, ICP-MS, UV spectroscopy, and DNA barcoding, to ensure the standardization of herbal medicinal products, particularly Eclipta alba.

This case study of a young Palestinian woman illustrates the diagnostic and treatment challenges of ovarian steroid cell tumors, highlighting the importance of detailed examination when hormonal therapy fails.

This case report highlights a Palestinian woman with a rare ovarian steroid cell tumor, underscoring the diagnostic challenges and potential for disease progression despite treatment attempts with various chemotherapy regimens.

In this study, researchers identified 18 genetic associations with scalp and facial hair traits in Latin Americans, including novel loci for hair greying and balding, with implications for understanding hair evolution.

Bone-marrow and epidermal stem cells help heal wounds differently, with bone-marrow cells aiding in blood vessel formation and epidermal cells in hair growth.

This study found that finasteride impaired object recognition memory and altered hippocampal dendritic structures in male 3xTg-AD mice, suggesting potential sex differences in Alzheimer's disease pathology.

In this study, the authors observed that cell-mediated immune mechanisms may be involved in the pathogenesis of benign follicular mucinosis, based on the cellular and immunological characteristics of two patient cases.

This article discusses various aspects of trichoscopy for diagnosing hair and scalp disorders and reports no clinical results, offering guidance and highlighting pitfalls for better application of this tool by dermatologists.

This study characterized a novel form of mural folliculitis in dogs, resembling human pseudopelade, marked by persistent alopecia, lymphocyte infiltration, and severe follicular atrophy without effective treatment response.

This study identified a new 65 kD and 48 kD keratin pair expressed in specific mouse epithelial sites, suggesting a unique evolutionary branch of hair-related keratins.

This study found that COVID-19 is associated with various skin rashes, which can indicate the severity of the disease, with chilblain-like lesions linked to milder cases and acro-ischaemia to more severe outcomes.

This study found that human skin grafted onto certain immunodeficient mice resulted in proliferative scars with characteristics similar to human hypertrophic scars, suggesting these models may better represent the condition's natural history.

In this study, researchers found significant associations between trichoscopic features and the severity of androgenetic alopecia in Korean participants, suggesting trichoscopy as a useful tool for early detection and monitoring by identifying indicators like vellus hairs and follicular unit changes.

This study analyzed animal hairs from 18th-century burial sites in Mazamet, France, reporting distinct hair morphologies consistent with the use of common local animal furs such as goat, badger, cow, or horse, reflecting the modest socioeconomic status of the individuals interred.

In this analysis, the authors examine how hairdressing techniques like thinning and micro-graduation can correct women's hairlines by softening optical contours and enhancing visual symmetry, emphasizing the relevance of individual factors such as morphology and stylistic expectations in selecting these non-medical approaches.

This study found moderate to poor agreement among observers assessing ultrasonographic features of polycystic ovaries, suggesting the need for standardized training modules to improve consistency.

This review describes trichoscopy features of lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia, identifying distinct patterns that help differentiate the two conditions.

This study found that dermoscopy is effective for distinguishing Tinea Capitis from Alopecia Areata by identifying unique trichoscopic features specific to each condition.

Hair changes could indicate neurological diseases and help monitor treatment.

In this study, the authors emphasize that IFK, though rare in young patients, should be considered when diagnosing scalp lesions in all age groups, highlighting the importance of recognizing its dermoscopic and histopathologic features to avoid misdiagnosis and ensure proper management.

Minoxidil doesn't affect perifollicular lymphoid infiltration in alopecia areata patients.

This study suggests that analyzing microscopic hair morphology, particularly loss of typical clubbing and proximal tapering, may help predict the clinical course of alopecia areata.

In this study, autopsies of children who suffered fatal abuse revealed stress-associated markers like telogen effluvium and thymus involution, which may help pathologists identify chronic abuse cases.

This study emphasizes that for effective management of alopecic sarcoidosis, evidence-based strategies including prompt diagnosis and systemic evaluation, particularly for scarring alopecia, are crucial to achieve better patient outcomes.

Image analysis can effectively identify changes in scalps affected by chemotherapy-induced hair loss.

This systematic review found that PCOS is a leading cause of anovulatory infertility, accounting for 70% of such cases, and emphasized the importance of using ultrasound for diagnosis.

This paper reviews the diagnostic criteria, associated morbidities, and possible evolutionary advantages of polycystic ovary syndrome, but does not report any new findings.

This article presents a comprehensive guide for classifying human hair follicle cycle stages in vivo using scalp xenografts on immunocompromised mice, offering valuable resources for researchers in the field.

This article discusses the structure of hair follicles and their significance in evaluating hair disorders, but it does not report any new research findings.

This review argues that the immunocompetence hypothesis, linking masculine facial features to attractiveness through health benefits, lacks sufficient evidence and sidesteps alternative explanations.
