In this study, the researchers found that over half of the tested calcium food supplements had calcium levels exceeding the amounts declared by their manufacturers, indicating a need for better quality control.

This study found that supplementing arsenic-fed Black Bengal kids with vitamin E, alone or combined with yeast culture, partially ameliorated growth and reduced arsenic load in faeces, urine, and hair.

This review examines AAS-related deaths and finds that anabolic-androgenic steroid abuse may lead to severe cardiac abnormalities, contributing to fatal arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death in young athletes and bodybuilders.

This study identified dual epithelial and mesenchymal traits in dermal sheath cells during wound repair, suggesting they could be targeted to enhance healing.

This study discovered that lambs with coarse, ancestral-like wool in a population of modern fine wool sheep exhibited overexpression of the SOSTDC1 gene, linked to epigenetic changes, which helps understand the development and diversification of wool types in sheep breeding.

In this study, researchers found two non-synonymous SNPs in the TERT gene associated with mean wool staple strength in sheep, suggesting TERT as a potential candidate gene for improving wool traits.

This study found that Indulekha Bringha scalp serum significantly reduced hair shedding and improved hair density more effectively than 3% Redensyl serum in healthy Indian adults experiencing hair loss.

This study developed a natural hair dye using Coreopsis tinctoria Nutt. extract, finding that it produced yellow to dark brown colors depending on the treatment, with ferrous lactate enhancing dye performance and color stability after washing.

In this study, a keratolytic shampoo with 2% salicylic acid was found to effectively reduce scab severity in male patients after hair transplantation without causing adverse symptoms, leading to high patient satisfaction and no recorded adverse events.

This review presents evidence supporting acupuncture's potential benefits for AA treatment but notes the findings are limited by low-quality evidence and small sample sizes, suggesting a need for future large-scale, rigorous studies.

In this study, researchers identified specific gene polymorphisms in Subo Merino sheep that significantly affect wool traits, suggesting these genetic markers could aid in breeding high-quality fine-wool sheep.

This study found that genetic predictions of male pattern baldness from European populations do not generalize well to African populations, highlighting significant differences in genetic architecture between them.

This study found that expression and variants of the KRT84 gene are associated with important wool traits in Gansu Alpine Fine-wool sheep, suggesting its potential use as a genetic marker for wool trait selection.

This study found that higher expression of the Hoxc13 gene in specific areas of hair follicles is associated with longer wool length in Gansu alpine fine-wool sheep.

This study investigated the expression of KRTAP6 gene family in Gansu Alpine fine-wool sheep, finding significant expression during the anagen phase and a negative correlation between KRTAP6-1 and KRTAP6-5 expressions with wool fiber diameter and strength.

This study found that hair membrane fluidity is low in the cuticle but high in the cortex and medulla, with treatments like ionic surfactants and oleic acid increasing fluidity in hydrated hair; however, dehydration significantly reduces fluidity throughout the hair.

This study identified a new gene in sheep, KRTAP36-2, discovering variants associated with wool yield. Variations in this gene were linked to the efficiency of fleece conversion from greasy to clean, which may enhance wool production.

This study found that critically ill pulmonary patients with deficiency syndrome were at a higher risk of developing type 2 myocardial infarction than those with phlegm syndrome.

In this study, the researchers found that cholinergic signaling via M4 muscarinic receptors influences hair growth, with enhanced elongation observed upon activation with bethanechol, highlighting its potential role in hair biology using mouse models.

This study found that compounds from *Tectona grandis* leaves showed moderate inhibition of steroid 5α-reductase, a factor in androgenetic alopecia, and exhibited anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting nitric oxide and pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-6 in vitro, suggesting potential dual-action benefits for AGA management.

This study found that Dex-loaded hyaluronic acid hydrogel microneedles significantly reduced pain in an acute inflammatory visceral pain model without sedation, suggesting a promising and patient-friendly alternative to intravenous delivery.

In this review, researchers explored hair as a promising tool for identifying biomarkers in schizophrenia, highlighting its potential for supporting personalized medicine through ease of sampling, though acknowledging challenges like individual variability and methodological inconsistencies.

This study demonstrated that Periplaneta americana extract significantly promoted hair regeneration in depilated mice by enhancing superoxide dismutase activity, upregulating vascular endothelial growth factor, modulating the FOXO/PI3K/AKT pathway, and restoring skin microbiome balance, suggesting its potential as a novel therapeutic candidate for alopecia.

In this preclinical study, PA-011 derived from Periplaneta americana showed significant hair regrowth effects in androgenetic alopecia mouse models by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress, activating hair follicle stem cell proliferation, and normalizing skin microbiota, suggesting promise as an AGA treatment.

This review reports that thallium poisoning causes severe neurological damage, with early gastrointestinal symptoms and later neurological dysfunction, and highlights the importance of early diagnosis and Prussian blue as an effective antidote.

In this case report, a 55-year-old postmenopausal woman was diagnosed with ovarian hyperthecosis as the cause of her hyperandrogenism after detailed hormonal and imaging investigations, which was successfully treated with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, leading to symptom improvement and normalized testosterone levels.

This study on Sdr16c5/Sdr16c6-null mice found that inactivating these genes significantly increased Meibomian gland secretions and altered lipid profiles but had a subtle impact on sebogenesis, suggesting the genes control a bifurcation point in meibogenesis pathways.

In this study, N. ottonis cactus cell extract applied to mice promoted hair growth and increased the number of hair follicles, suggesting its potential as a hair-growth-promoting agent.

This review discusses the causes and recommended clinical investigations for postmenopausal hyperandrogenism, highlighting the role of androgen excess in symptoms like hirsutism and its association with metabolic disorders.

This study identified melatonin as a potential treatment for rosacea and Alzheimer's disease, suggesting it may help by modulating inflammatory and vascular signaling pathways.
