research The Sinicization of “ojas”, the Formation of “鬼舐/剃頭 Ghost Licking/Shaving Head”, and the Authenticity of the Guanding Sūtra
In this research, the authors examined translations of "ojas" in the Bhaiṣajyaguru Sūtra across different Chinese texts, noting variations and evolving interpretations; the study highlights linguistic evidence supporting the view that the text is a foreign-translated sūtra rather than a native creation.
research Woolly hair nevus
This study presents the first reported case of woolly hair nevus appearing during adolescence, with significant improvement observed 5 years later and structural changes in the hair documented.
research Hair Diameter Variation in Different Vertical Regions of the Occipital Safe Donor Area
This study found that hair diameter varies significantly within the occipital safe donor area, with thicker hair in the upper sections and thinner hair in the lower sections.
research Trichoscopic findings in children and adults with alopecia areata: A comparative study
This study analyzed dermoscopic findings in alopecia areata among children and adults, discovering that exclamation mark hairs are more common in children, while yellow dots appear more often in adults, indicating the importance of age-specific evaluation in diagnosing this condition.
research Abnormalities of Purkinje Cell Arborization in Brindled Mouse Cerebellum
This study found that cupric chloride treatment may partially correct delayed maturation and abnormal arborization of Purkinje cells in the cerebellum of hemizygous brindled mice, a model for Kinky hair disease.
research 200 Uncommon finasteride side effects in male androgenic alopecia
This study observed that uncommon finasteride side effects included melasma, dry skin, tinnitus, postural hypotension, and oral lesions, with some symptoms persisting after treatment cessation.
research Acquired progressive kinking of the hair in a Korean female adolescent
This letter to the editor describes a case of acquired progressive kinking of the hair in a Korean female adolescent, but no new research findings are reported.
research Forensic DNA phenotyping: A promising tool to predict human appearance for forensic purposes
This study highlights the potential of forensic DNA phenotyping using Next Generation Sequencing to predict eye, hair, and skin color, aiding criminal investigations, though adoption faces challenges due to incomplete genetic understanding and ethical, social, and legal concerns.
research Hirsutism
research Data_Sheet_1_Disruption of Hars2 in Cochlear Hair Cells Causes Progressive Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Hearing Loss in Mice.docx
This study found that knocking out the Hars2 gene in mouse cochlear hair cells led to mitochondrial dysfunction and ROS stress, resulting in progressive hearing loss and differential effects on inner and outer hair cells.
research Dermal papilla cells and melanocytes response to physiological oxygen levels depends on their interactions
This study found that direct interactions between human dermal papilla cells and melanocytes under low oxygen conditions improved cell functions and could be important for hair regeneration efforts.
research Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome: genotype–phenotype review and case of intra-familial heterogeneity
This review describes the genetic and phenotypic diversity of Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, highlighting new DCAF17 gene variants and their varying clinical implications.
research Unconventional medicine in dermatology outpatients in Turkey
This study found that 33.5% of dermatology outpatients in Turkey used unconventional therapies, with no significant differences based on age, sex, or education.
research A Cluster of (Old) Portuguese Derivational Suffixes:-ece, -ice, -ez(a),Viewed in Relation to their Spanish Counterparts
This article reviews the history of Portuguese and Spanish derivational suffixes and provides no new empirical findings, discussing various scholarly works and contributions on the subject.
research Neurochemical and Immunocytochemical Studies of Catecholamine System in the Brindled Mouse
This study found that brindled mottled mice, a model of Kinky hair syndrome, exhibited abnormal development of catecholamine neurons, with increased TH-immunoreactive neurons and altered neurochemical profiles compared to controls.
research Ornithine Decarboxylase Expression Leads to Translocation and Activation of Protein Kinase CK2 in Vivo
This study suggests that polyamines regulate CK2 enzyme activity and its subcellular distribution, as demonstrated in mouse models and cell cultures with elevated levels of ornithine decarboxylase.
research A Cross-Sectional Study of Mucocutaneous Manifestations amongGeriatric Patients at a Tertiary Care Centre
This study, conducted among elderly patients in an Indian dermatology department, found that pruritus was the most common complaint, while fungal infections and eczematous disorders were also prevalent; notably, age-related changes like wrinkling and hair graying affected all participants.
