December 2022 in “Korean journal of medicinal crop science/Han-gug yagyong jagmul hag-hoeji” This study found that polysaccharide extracts from ginseng, green tea, shiitake, and aloe vera effectively protected human follicle dermal papilla and keratinocyte cells by promoting cell proliferation or inhibiting apoptosis, suggesting potential for these extracts as ingredients in cosmetics or pharmaceuticals to prevent hair loss.
June 2022 in “International Journal of Research -GRANTHAALAYAH” This article discusses the role of the hair follicle as a miniorgan involved in bioelectricity and energy transfer in living organisms, but it reports no new research findings.
April 2022 in “Health care of Tajikistan” This review discusses the etiology and pathogenesis of alopecia areata in children, highlighting the roles of heredity, immune factors, lipid peroxidation violations, microcirculation issues, and vitamin D deficiencies but reports no new clinical results.
February 2022 in “Institutional Repositories DataBase (IRDB)” This case study describes a unique instance of unilateral steroid-induced rosacea-like dermatitis likely due to long-term localized use of topical corticosteroids, emphasizing the need for careful application and thorough histopathological analysis.
