This study found that the pH levels of relaxers tested were corrosive to the skin and may contribute to alopecia in females with afro-textured hair.

This study found that exposure to certain elements during pregnancy, measured in maternal hair, was associated with increased risk of gestational diabetes and potential impacts on infant neurodevelopment, with elements like Ta, Re, and Se posing the highest risk for gestational diabetes.

This study found that manipulating maternal cortisol levels during pregnancy altered Merino sheep wool characteristics, increasing fibre length and reducing crimp frequency in the offspring.

This article introduces the ISHRS's Core Curriculum for Hair Restoration Surgery, detailing essential knowledge and techniques for physician competence in diagnosing and treating hair loss, without reporting new clinical results.

This study in Saudi female patients with hyperprolactinemia found that pituitary imaging is often indicated due to a high prevalence of pituitary anomalies, with prolactin levels showing moderate accuracy in predicting adenomas and a suggested cutoff level of >38.71 ng/mL for diagnosis.

This study among ethnic Saudi Arabian women concluded that symptoms like muscle cramps, fatigue, mood swings, hair loss, back pain, and weight gain were more common in those with lower vitamin D levels.

This study found that post-COVID-19 telogen effluvium is strongly associated with elevated oxidative stress marker sRAGE and reduced antioxidant marker HO-1, suggesting potential biomarkers for early diagnosis and monitoring.

In this study, chronic finasteride administration in male rats led to depression- and anxiety-like behaviors only in specific tests and moderately affected hippocampal synaptic plasticity, possibly due to adaptive plasma corticosterone level changes over time.

In this study, pair housing of rhesus macaques after intrafacility transfer reduced some undesirable behaviors and diarrhea compared to single housing, although no cortisol level differences were observed.

This study found that steroid hormones influence the quality indicators of fresh and cryopreserved stallion sperm, with testosterone negatively correlated with motility and estradiol positively correlated with survival rate.

This article introduces a new Core Curriculum for Hair Restoration Surgery, aimed at enhancing physician competence in diagnosing and treating hair loss with a multidisciplinary approach.

In this study, researchers mapped cysteine accessibility in wool keratins and KAPs, revealing that certain cysteines in keratin end domains and Types I and II rod domains are accessible and likely involved in forming disulfide bonds.

In this study, women with androgenetic alopecia showed abnormalities in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, and treatment with metformin improved clinical outcomes.

This study found that a bacterial endophyte from Zea nicaraguensis effectively targets and colonizes plant root hair cells, promoting growth and solubilizing insoluble phosphorus for nutrient uptake.

This study investigates calcium and phosphorus accumulations in the hair of mummies from the Taklamakan desert and debates their exogenous or endogenous origin.

This study reviewed previous research and highlights the potential of plant-derived compounds as anti-coronaviral agents, emphasizing the inhibition of viral enzymes and the need for further natural-origin antiviral investigations.

In this study, researchers developed an LC-MS/MS method to accurately quantify cortisone and cortisol levels in human scalp hair, finding that concentrations decrease predictably along the hair shaft, which could assist in identifying abnormal glucocorticoid exposure.

In this study, correlations between urinary and serum androgen metabolites were examined in girls aged 6-13, revealing that summed urinary metabolites strongly correspond with circulating androstenedione and testosterone levels, though individual variations depend on participant characteristics such as age and body measurements.

This study observed changes in the electrical and viscoelastic properties of erythrocytes, as well as hemostatic system activation, in women with alopecia following COVID-19 infection, potentially contributing to alopecia development and informing treatment strategies.

This study reports that trichocyte intermediate filaments from rat vibrissae and human hair follicles may contain a hollow region at their core, suggesting unique structural properties.

This review discusses the impact of COVID-19 on genitourinary organs, highlights areas for further study, and reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest long-term analysis to clarify outcomes.

In this study, buffalo calves fed only corn silage showed deficiencies in copper, zinc, selenium, and vitamin A, along with improved physiological conditions after dietary supplementation and treatment.

This review discusses various types of hair loss associated with COVID-19 and vaccinations, highlighting acute telogen hair loss as the most common form, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reports the prescribing preferences of UK dermatologists for treating various hair loss conditions, noting that topical corticosteroids for mild to moderate alopecia areata and topical minoxidil for female pattern hair loss are commonly used first-line treatments.

This case report describes the first known instance of fibrosing alopecia associated with cutaneous lichen planus, suggesting fibrosing alopecia may be a variant of lichen planopilaris.

This review of stem cell-based tissue engineering treatments in preclinical burn wound models reports promising improvements in skin repair, suggesting potential as an enhanced therapy for burn wounds.

This study found that men with frontal fibrosing alopecia were more likely to have facial papules, androgenetic alopecia, and body hair loss compared to women, with the average patient age being higher than in other series, potentially explaining these differences.

This study's simulation found that Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate penetrates more efficiently through the skin's stratum corneum than via the infundibulum, following different pathways and dynamics in each membrane.

This case report describes an instance of alopecia and severe seborrhoeic dermatitis potentially linked to the immune response from starting combination antiretroviral therapy for acute retroviral syndrome.

This study describes the first known case of erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp triggered by a burn from hair bleaching, which resolved completely with superpotent topical corticosteroids.
