This article discusses the shifting role of physicians in addressing performance-enhancing drug use in sports and highlights that the same benefits may be achieved through dietary and training advice, but it reports no new results.

This study reported that C. procera leaf extracts showed antifungal activity against several dermatophytes, with ethanol extracts demonstrating slightly greater efficacy than aqueous extracts.

This review discusses Ayurvedic detoxification methods for poisonous plants, known as Visha Dravyas, and reports no new clinical results.

This study identified and characterized eight compounds, including furanocoumarins and pterocarpans, from the aerial parts of Bituminaria basaltica, with β-caryophyllene and germacrene D as main constituents of its essential oil.

This study assessed 11 plants from French Polynesia for their potential development as sustainable natural cosmetics, particularly anti-aging and hair care products, based on their traditional uses and preliminary screening results.

This study found that extracts from the medicinal plants *Echinops echinatus* and *Tridax procumbens* displayed antimicrobial activity against several bacteria, including *Escherichia coli* and *Staphylococcus aureus*, and identified various compounds like flavonoids and terpenoids potentially responsible for these effects.

In this experimental study, the researchers observed that Platycladus orientalis leaf extract promoted hair growth by enhancing dermal papilla cell proliferation and increasing growth factor expression, particularly through ACK1 activation and modulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways in cultured human cells and a 12-week topical application.

This study evaluated Tridax procumbens extracts for their in-vitro alpha amylase inhibitory activity compared to standard antidiabetic agents, suggesting potential benefits for diabetes management.

This study carried out a detailed pharmacognostic and phytochemical analysis of Sphagneticola calendulacea leaves, which may help authenticate this plant used in treating inflammation and alopecia.

This study found that the petroleum ether extract of Citrullus colocynthis fruit and an isolated steroidal compound may reduce prostatic hyperplasia in rats induced by testosterone, suggesting potential use in managing androgen-dependent conditions.

Cedrol promotes hair growth better than baricitinib by regulating immune cells.

This article reports on the ISPMF2015 symposium, which facilitated global scientific exchange on phytochemicals, featuring over 270 participants from 48 countries but does not present new research findings itself.

This study found that the ethanolic extract of Acanthus ebracteatus demonstrated potential as an anti-hair loss treatment by promoting dermal papilla cell proliferation, inhibiting 5α-reductase activity, and reducing inflammation in vitro.

This review discusses the role of iron from cosmetic sources in skin nutrition and reports no clinical results, highlighting its significance for skin, hair, and nail health.

This study found that detoxifying Abrus precatorius seeds through an Ayurvedic process removed toxicity while retaining hair growth efficacy, suggesting the process is effective in reducing toxins.

This study provided detailed anatomical, physico-chemical, and chromatographic analyses to differentiate Dracaena trifasciata from potential adulterants in traditional medicine.

This article reviews the phytochemical and pharmacological properties of Erythrina variegata but reports that effective anti-alopecia compounds have not yet been identified, suggesting further research is needed.

This study identified several herbs, including Ganoderma lucidum and Urtica dioica, that showed promising 5α-reductase inhibitory activity suggesting potential use in managing androgenic disorders.

This study found that among eleven tested polymethoxyflavones, 5-hydroxy-7,4′-dimethoxyflavone was the strongest steroid 5α-reductase inhibitor and suggests potential use for benign prostatic hyperplasia treatment.

This study reported that Cacumen Platycladi extract significantly reduced hair loss and increased hair density in a 12-week clinical trial, suggesting it may be a safe and effective natural treatment.

This study found that the OXI1 gene in Arabidopsis thaliana is vital for activating key protein kinases and is necessary for oxidative burst signal responses like pathogen resistance and root hair growth.

This study found that long-term exposure to high pH extends root hair elongation by altering actin filament arrangements and vesicle trafficking, but disrupting ADF8/11 function shortens root hairs by affecting these processes.

PDE inhibitors, especially PDE4 inhibitors like apremilast, are effective for certain inflammatory skin conditions but have side effects and can be costly.

This systematic review highlights the diverse uses and bioactivities of Impatiens plants, particularly their antimicrobial, cytotoxic, anti-inflammatory, anti-anaphylactic, and antioxidant properties, while noting the need for more research to validate their ethnobotanical applications and isolate major bioactive compounds.

In this study, the ethyl acetate fraction of Nothopanax scutellarium leaves showed a mild irritation effect but promoted hair growth and increased hair diameter in rabbits.

This study identified N-acyl arylsulfonamides, particularly N-(Boc-piperidine-4-carbonyl)-benzenesulfonamides, as steroid sulfatase inhibitors with improved cellular potency compared to previous compounds.

This study found that Acanthus ebracteatus extract may promote the proliferation of human hair follicle dermal papilla cells and reported that its microemulsion was stable for 12 weeks.

This study suggested that an herbal shampoo containing Piper betle and Psidium guajava leaves extract may promote hair growth due to its antioxidant properties and showed stability for two months.

In this study, hirsute women treated with cyproterone acetate and ethinyloestradiol experienced significant reductions in sebum secretion and hair growth after several months.
