64 citations
,
September 2006 in “International journal of epidemiology” This article discusses a proposed "Darwinian" model of carcinogenesis and emphasizes that cancer prevention involves more than avoiding mutagens, as gene-environment interactions are complex and non-linear.
61 citations
,
March 2022 in “JEADV. Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology/Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology” This study found that 43.35% of the adult population across 27 European countries reported having a skin condition in the past year, highlighting the need for dermatological care planning.

August 2014 in “Clinical endocrinology” This study suggests that the use of finasteride for benign prostate hyperplasia may increase the risk of osteoporosis diagnosis, particularly at higher doses.
17 citations
,
February 2011 in “International Journal of Cosmetic Science” This study found that individual differences between pigmented and unpigmented hair fibers in Old Order Mennonites suggest grey hair may be perceived as drier and less manageable due to small mechanical and moisture changes.
12 citations
,
May 2019 in “Stem cell reviews” In this study, fetal stem cells were identified in adult human hair follicles long after childbirth, indicating potential for autologous therapies due to their pluripotent characteristics.
6 citations
,
January 2021 in “Frontiers in Immunology” This study found that deficiency in TLR3/TRIF signaling reduced inflammation and protected mice against postoperative ileus, suggesting potential for TLR3 antagonism as a preventive approach in humans.
4 citations
,
December 2022 in “Clinical and Experimental Dermatology” This study suggests that there is no clinically significant association between alopecia areata and the incidence of common infections, potentially reflecting increased healthcare engagement rather than a true link.
4 citations
,
May 2018 in “BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders” This study found that dutasteride is not associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis or fractures in older men compared to finasteride, suggesting dutasteride does not adversely affect bone health.
3 citations
,

July 2022 in “International Journal of Rheumatic Diseases” In this population-based cohort study, no association was found between ankylosing spondylitis and the risk of developing alopecia.
December 2023 in “Journal of Asia Pacific Aesthetic Sciences” This study found that a novel method of isolating human follicle stem cells from hair follicles via mechanical centrifugation, without culture conditions, promises to improve hair density in patients with Androgenetic Alopecia and some cases of Alopecia Areata.
October 2023 in “Journal of pharmaceutical investigation” In this study, researchers found that among healthy Korean males, the clearance of finasteride was about 34% lower in individuals with the CYP3A5*3 homozygous allele compared to other genotypes, suggesting dosage adjustments may be necessary considering CYP3A5 and ALT levels to avoid adverse effects.
