This review summarizes late-breaking abstracts from the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery, 2018, and reports no new clinical findings.

A patient had both chronic lupus and systemic scleroderma, requiring careful treatment to manage symptoms.

The document concludes that the trichogram is a useful tool for diagnosing hair loss and suggests semi-organ cultures for practical trichological research.

Any drug can cause skin reactions, but antibiotics, NSAIDs, and psychotropic drugs are more common, with some reactions being life-threatening.

Hair follicles could be used for targeted drug delivery, with liposomal systems showing promise for this method.

This review discusses the roles of hair follicles and sebaceous glands in percutaneous transport and reports no new results, noting a lack of adequate models and methodologies.

This report describes a sudden hair matting incident after shampooing a hairpiece and suggests that weathered hairs might explain this unusual event.

This review highlights that surface mechanical regulation can program macrophage behavior through specific mechanical cues on material surfaces, potentially advancing immunotherapies and regenerative medicine by enabling precise control over macrophage functions.

This study developed HA-gel-dex hydrogels with enhanced ECM-like properties and functionality, showing promise for 3D bioprinting, tissue repair, and as wound dressings due to improved cell interaction, cytocompatibility, antimicrobial synergy, and wound healing in mice compared to traditional ECM bio-inks.

This source provides medical information intended solely for licensed professionals and emphasizes that it is not a substitute for medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment decisions, which remain the responsibility of treating physicians.

This review highlights the potential of wedelolactone from the plant Wedelia Chinensis, summarizing its reported pharmacological effects, including anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, antitumor, anti-osteoporosis activities, and organ protection based on existing in vitro and in vivo research findings.

This review highlights icariin’s potential to regulate macrophages in varying conditions, discussing its effects on macrophage polarization, metabolism, and disease mechanisms, and noting the development of delivery systems to enhance its therapeutic impact.

This study analyzed 853 articles to reveal that research on silica-based nanobiomaterials in regenerative medicine has rapidly increased, with distinct regional differences in impact and emerging focus areas in drug delivery and wound healing.

This study found that exosomes derived from human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells enhanced stem cell proliferation and structural restoration in irradiated salivary glands of rats, with significant improvements observed by day 7, suggesting activation of the Wnt signaling pathway.

In this review, researchers explored the design of composite biomaterials for immunomodulation and their potential to influence immune cell behavior, which could be leveraged for treating diseases like cancer and improving tissue regeneration, while also addressing translational challenges such as biocompatibility and safety.

This review highlights the hair follicle's structural and functional properties as an effective route for delivering active compounds in treating hair disorders, focusing on emerging carrier technologies to enhance targeted transfollicular delivery.

This research highlights selenium's critical roles in various biological processes and underscores the potential health impacts of both its deficiency and excess, including increased mortality risk, poor immune function, and neurological issues.

This study tested a novel cryo-carboxy dispensing device for treating androgenetic alopecia in six volunteers and found an unexpectedly rapid and positive response, with significant hair regrowth observed by day 90, prompting early conclusion of the trial.

In this study, the authors reported a case of alopecia X in a German Spitz dog and found that treatment with orchiectomy and melatonin resulted in partial hair regrowth and improved the dog's dermatological condition.

In this study, solar drying of Punicagranatum was found to be the most effective, achieving a 65.26% drying rate compared to shade and convective drying methods.

This paper describes that approximately 80% of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus develop skin changes over time, highlighting the prevalence of skin involvement in this autoimmune condition.

In this study, researchers developed a method using stencils to create controlled stiffness gradients in alginate hydrogels, revealing that stiffer regions within the gels promote deeper invasion by breast cancer cells, facilitating the study of mechanosensitive cellular behaviors.

This case report highlights the need for a multidisciplinary approach in managing complex cardio-obstetric patients, as demonstrated by a pregnant woman with a large pericardial effusion successfully treated with a surgical pericardial window.

In this study, researchers applied Strat-M® membrane to assess the in vitro transdermal properties of collagen peptides, finding a high correlation with results from mouse skin and suggesting that Strat-M® can effectively replace excised mouse skin in transdermal experiments.

This study found that elastin-like recombinamer (ELR) wound dressings promote tissue regeneration and stability without rejection in ex vivo and in vivo models, indicating potential for hard-to-heal wound treatment.

This review explores the role of JAG1 in disease treatment, highlighting the need for effective methods to deliver JAG1 in its bound form to activate NOTCH signaling for therapeutic applications in craniofacial bone loss and myocardial infarction.

In this study, researchers found that high doses of rosemary extract given to lactating mother rats adversely affected their offspring, causing weight issues and damage to liver, kidney, and testis tissues, suggesting potential teratogenic risks if used during human pregnancy and lactation.

This article reviews the classification and treatment of cutaneous manifestations in systemic lupus erythematosus, highlighting the importance of monitoring for disease progression and reports no new clinical results.

COVID-19 can cause different types of hair loss, with telogen effluvium being the most common.

This study found that microplastics on the Lebanese Mediterranean coast transport various organic and inorganic pollutants, posing threats to marine organisms and potentially human health.
