November 2025 in “Bioscientia Medicina Journal of Biomedicine and Translational Research” In this case report, researchers describe a 44-year-old woman with refractory patch alopecia areata achieving complete hair regrowth using a multi-modal approach of systemic and topical cholecalciferol with microneedling, although systemic vitamin D repletion remains a significant confounder.
September 2025 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” 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.
May 2025 in “Journal of International Medical Research” In this study, micrografting technology was found to potentially shorten healing time compared to other grafting techniques, especially in treating burns, though results showed high heterogeneity and a risk of bias.
April 2025 in “Journal of Biomedicine and Translational Research” This case report describes the successful treatment of a post-excisional biopsy dehisced wound in an 11-year-old girl using 1% framycetin sulphate tulle combined with ozonated oil as adjuvant therapy, leading to wound healing with some complications like secondary cicatricial alopecia.
April 2025 in “Journal of Pharmaceutical Investigation” In this study, injectable microdepots containing rapamycin and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) were developed and demonstrated to effectively promote hair regrowth in mice by sustaining drug release and inducing anagen phase transition in hair follicles through modulating autophagy and the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.
January 2025 in “Dialnet (Universidad de la Rioja)” In this multicenter study, adipose-derived stem cell-enriched fat grafting achieved higher satisfaction and better clinical outcomes compared to platelet-rich plasma and hyaluronic acid filler in aesthetic interventions.
January 2025 in “New Journal of Chemistry” In this study, researchers developed hollow mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles and confirmed their synthesis using IR spectroscopy, then evaluated the nanoparticles for endocytosis and biocompatibility, although specific results of these tests are not reported in the abstract.
January 2024 in “Endocrine and metabolic science” This review explores the applicability of the current PCOS diagnostic criteria, highlighting the need to reassess these criteria in light of new evidence on the disorder's heterogeneity and potential subtypes.
