research Activation of Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Is Involved in Hair Growth-Promoting Effect of 655-nm Red Light and LED in In Vitro Culture Model
Red light and LED treatments help hair grow by activating a specific cell signaling pathway.
research Investigation of Hair Shaft in Seborrheic Dermatitis Using Atomic Force Microscopy
Hair from people with seborrheic dermatitis is thicker scaled, more damaged, and thinner than healthy hair, and atomic force microscopy can help monitor the condition.
research Surgical Atlas: Primary Hypospadias Repair with Buccal Mucosa
Using buccal mucosa for hypospadias repair in children is effective and reduces complications.
research Azimuthal Scattering from Elliptical Hair Fibers
Light scatters differently from elliptical hair fibers than from circular ones, and a new model better predicts this behavior, especially for shiny highlights.
research Two-Photon Microscopy for Intracutaneous Imaging of Stem Cell Activity in Mice
Two-photon microscopy effectively tracks live stem cell activity in mouse skin with minimal harm and clear images.
research Oral Medications for Central Serous Chorioretinopathy: A Literature Review
Some oral medications may help treat central serous chorioretinopathy, especially eplerenone, but more research is needed.
research Analyzing the Laser-Light Reflection from Human Hair Fibers: Deriving a Measure of Hair Luster
The conclusion is that a new method to measure hair shine was confirmed to match people's visual assessments.
research Dermoscopy: Not Just for Dermatologists
Dermoscopy is useful for many health professionals, not just dermatologists, in improving skin condition diagnoses and reducing unnecessary biopsies.
research Acquired Progressive Kinking of the Hair in a Prepubertal Boy
A 10-year-old boy had the earliest reported case of hair that became progressively kinkier but eventually returned to normal on its own.
research Oral Minoxidil Bio-Activation by Hair Follicle Outer Root Sheath Cell Sulfotransferase Enzymes Predicts Clinical Efficacy in Female Pattern Hair Loss

Malassezia yeast linked to hair loss; ketoconazole helps treat it.
research Structure of Intermediate Filament Assembly in Hair Deduced from Hydration Studies Using Small-Angle Neutron Scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Central Chorioretinopathy Associated with Topical Use of Minoxidil 2% for Treatment of Baldness
Using 2% minoxidil for baldness treatment might cause vision distortion due to fluid build-up under the retina.
research Hair Casts
Hair casts may be caused by repetitive hair pulling or styling and are often misdiagnosed.
