The researchers reported that hair offers a measurable protective barrier against UVB and UVA radiation, which increases with hair density, thickness, and melanin content, suggesting a role in skin cancer prevention.

This study observed phenotypic diversity in hair loss among Japanese individuals homozygous for the LIPH c.736T>A mutation and suggests that differences in hair thickness may contribute to varying severities.

This study observed variability in hair density and types across different scalp areas in cadaver biopsies, providing reference values that could aid in diagnosing hair disorders in Asians.

This study identified six key concerns, including self-consciousness and physical symptoms, among patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus that should be considered in quality-of-life assessments.

This study found a strong correlation between the Sinclair Scale and cumulative hair thickness density, allowing the estimation of the Sinclair Scale from trichoscopy-derived statistics.

This study found that nearly all nurses caring for chemotherapy patients showed detectable levels of cyclophosphamide in their urine, indicating significant occupational exposure to this antineoplastic drug.

In this study, researchers found that chemotherapy-induced alopecia counseling and resource access are insufficient and influenced by socioeconomic factors such as employment, income, and education, underscoring the need for standardized education and improved resource availability to address disparities.

This study found that TikTok provides valuable insights into experiences with lupus erythematosus, highlighting distress from symptoms, negative perceptions of pharmacologic treatments, and issues with feeling "medically gaslighted.

This study explored how an educational intervention on reducing phthalate exposure through hair care product choices influenced the hair care practices of pregnant women of color, identifying key life stages and themes related to these practices, including cultural influences, product impacts, and individual autonomy.

The researchers in this study suggest that using plant-based hair serums, which combine herbs and botanical phytochemicals, can enhance therapeutic benefits for hair and skin, offering improvements like deep nutrition, skin suppleness, and UV protection compared to individual herb use.

This study used TikTok videos to explore experiences of individuals with lupus erythematosus, revealing that mucocutaneous symptoms significantly impact mental health and body image, while pharmacologic treatments are often viewed negatively, leading to important implications for clinical interactions and validation.

This study reports that fly blood progenitors in a long-term organ culture model undergo symmetric cell divisions influenced by cell size and orientation, with infection triggering changes in cell differentiation kinetics.

This study found that inhibiting mTORC2 in glioblastoma cells reduced DNA repair and increased apoptosis, highlighting its potential role in cancer cell survival and DNA damage response.

This study found that porcine skin serves as a reliable model for studying drug absorption into human hair follicles, showing a strong correlation in follicular drug absorption between porcine and human skin.

This study developed the Alopecia Areata Patient Priority Outcome (AAPPO), a new tool designed to measure and capture the symptoms and impacts of alopecia areata that matter most to patients.

In this study, participants with psoriasis vulgaris and chronic urticaria chose Chinese herbal medicine due to beliefs about its safety and effectiveness in preventing relapse, although convenience and clinical evidence remain important considerations.

This study identified ten compounds from Eclipta prostrata, with some displaying potent inhibitory effects against α-glucosidase and acetylcholinesterase enzymes.

This meta-analysis found that plum-blossom needling, as an add-on therapy, provided moderate beneficial effects on hair regrowth in alopecia areata patients compared to conventional treatment alone.

This study observed that skin pigmentation significantly attenuates bioluminescent signals in C57Bl/6 mice, complicating quantitative optical imaging and requiring consideration in experimental design.

This study found that in the Thai population, hair density varies by scalp location and decreases with age, and that Asians generally have lower hair density compared to Caucasian and African populations.

The study observed that Americans of Hispanic descent have a statistically significant higher hair density than individuals of African descent but lower than Caucasians, which may assist in diagnosing and researching hair disorders.

This study found that biostimulant application in lettuce cultivation led to significant yield and phytochemical enhancements, with effects varying between green and red cultivars depending on the treatment method used.

Method accurately measures finasteride in tablets using finasteride-BSA interaction.

In this correspondence, researchers reported that very-low-dose oral minoxidil (0.25 mg/d) showed some effectiveness in stabilizing trichoscopic parameters in male androgenetic alopecia. However, their analysis suggests that higher doses (2.5–5 mg/d) may lead to better clinical responses with similar rates of adverse events.
