22 citations
,
July 2012 in “International Journal of Trichology” This study found that loss of contact between the arrector pili muscle and the hair follicle bulge may explain why hair loss in male and female pattern baldness is largely irreversible, unlike in alopecia areata.
This study reported that the Fe@C/CB electrocatalyst effectively detected Metol in water samples with a low detection limit, high sensitivity, and good stability, suggesting it as a promising tool for environmental monitoring.

,
April 2018 in “Journal of Mind and Medical Sciences” This article argues that the mind-body problem is a false issue, proposing that the mind merely temporally associates immaterial data with material support without actual interaction.
3 citations
,
November 2017 in “International Journal of Cosmetic Science” This study found that increasing the pH from 2.0 to 6.0 enhanced the binding of cationic solutes to hair keratin, driven primarily by hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions.
14 citations
,
January 2001 in “Clinical chemistry” This article discusses the potential use of hair fibers to noninvasively measure polyamine concentrations as a marker of tumor growth, but reports no new clinical findings.
