In this review, researchers examined advanced sensing technologies and bioelectronic interfaces that could improve understanding of the skin–brain axis, highlighting challenges and strategies for integrating these platforms into models for studying skin and neural interactions.

This study found that collecting hair samples for cortisol analysis is feasible in community-dwelling individuals with longstanding multiple sclerosis, although no significant correlation between hair cortisol levels and perceived chronic stress was observed, highlighting the complexity of stress measurement in this population.

This systematic review found that probiotic supplementation improved sleep quality, reduced depressive symptoms, and enhanced aspects of quality of life in women with PCOS, though the findings are limited by a small number of studies and variable methods.

This review assesses the potential of smart dressings, engineered to respond to various stimuli, as advanced treatments for chronic inflammatory skin diseases by examining their activation mechanisms and proposing future developments like integrating AI and closed-loop monitoring for adaptive therapy.

This study found that individuals with androgenetic alopecia experience significantly higher symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress compared to controls, along with reduced self-esteem and life satisfaction, highlighting the importance of addressing psychological well-being in clinical treatments.

This case report describes a child with acrodermatitis enteropathica and normal zinc levels who developed Kaposi's varicelliform eruption, highlighting the role of novel SLC39A4 variants and the importance of early zinc supplementation and antiviral prophylaxis.

The researchers reported a case of a neotropical porcupine co-infected with Brazilian porcupine poxvirus and Toxoplasma gondii, suggesting the need for further investigation into the impact of this interaction.

This study found that scalp micropigmentation was a safe and effective cosmetic solution for localized alopecia, showing significant improvement in visual density and high patient satisfaction without adverse events.

This review reported that Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha) significantly improved symptoms like vasomotor disturbances, psychological well-being, and sleep quality in perimenopausal women and was well tolerated, with largely mild side effects in examined trials.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome reported significantly higher levels of psychological symptoms, such as depression and anxiety, compared to healthy controls, with higher stress and lower self-efficacy linked to increased symptom severity.

This study found that laboratory testing practices for alopecia areata vary among international hair experts, with the majority routinely conducting thyroid function and complete blood count tests, yet exhibiting diverse approaches toward testing for other conditions or before prescribing systemic therapy.

This study observed that premature hair graying was more prevalent among obese individuals, those with vitamin B12 and D deficiencies, smokers, and people with high stress, regardless of whether they were medical or non-medical students at a university in Saudi Arabia.

This study suggests that addressing hormonal, stress, and metabolic factors with vitamins, minerals, and botanicals, which has improved hair growth in women, might also benefit men experiencing hair thinning.

This review explored the causes of hair graying and evaluated how plant-derived extracts and phytochemicals might alleviate it, noting that certain compounds showed potential in enhancing melanocyte function, reducing oxidative stress, and influencing stress-related pathways based on experimental evidence.

This review summarizes the use of autologous platelet concentrates in aesthetic medicine, finding promising results for facial treatments, but highlights the need for more rigorous research due to current study limitations.
