This study reviews existing literature on botanicals for androgenetic alopecia, noting a growing interest and emphasizing research on hair growth stimulants, especially involving green tea and other specific botanicals.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma injections resulted in earlier hair regrowth responses in alopecia areata patients compared to triamcinolone, but the difference was not statistically significant at 9 weeks.

This study found that ephrin-A3 accelerates hair follicle development and increases hair follicle density in neonatal mice, suggesting its involvement in hair growth regulation.

This review discusses the role of hair microscopy in diagnosing alopecia, stating that while it excludes diagnoses related to hair breakage, it only confirms nonspecific short anagen in alopecia cases.

This study found that the scalp coverage scoring (SCS) method is a non-invasive and reproducible technique that effectively measures hair growth and loss dynamics in male subjects with androgenetic alopecia.

This study developed and validated a method using hair samples to simultaneously detect bisphenols and parabens, enabling the quantification of these endocrine disruptors in a hospital population’s hair.

This review highlights that autologous platelet concentrates, particularly platelet-rich fibrin, have shown potential to enhance healing and outcomes in both dental and medical applications, including injury recovery and aesthetics.

This study suggests that dermal stem/progenitor cells can be enriched by intracellular granularity and display high proliferation and differentiation potential in vitro, distinguishing them from other fibroblasts and progenitors.

This review discusses possible links between certain skin conditions and elevated coronary disease risk, but reports no new results and highlights methodological flaws in existing studies.

This study presents a validated questionnaire, the FFA-QLI, which effectively assesses and differentiates the quality of life impact among patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, showing greater sensitivity in identifying severe cases than the DLQI.

This study explored dermatoscopic and histopathologic findings of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia beyond the vertex scalp, suggesting that dermatoscopy might serve as a less invasive diagnostic tool for subclinical disease.

This study assessed whether the elemental composition of human hair could serve as a marker for kidney stones, cholelithiasis, hypertension, and diabetes, but it reports only variations in element content along hair regions.

This study developed a high-resolution phototrichogram system that can automatically and accurately assess hair growth metrics in cosmetic trials, achieving over 90% correlation with manual measurements.

This article reviews the management of excessive pre-ejaculate, highlighting case reports where 5-α-reductase inhibitors, such as finasteride and dutasteride, led to symptom resolution in patients reporting distress due to this condition.

This study concluded that the Scalp Photographic Index is a reliable and validated tool for objectively classifying and scoring various scalp conditions.

This study suggests an association between DNA methylation changes in hair follicles and inherited color dilution in Rex rabbits, contributing to a deeper understanding of epigenetic influences on rabbit pigmentation.

This study evaluated a new anti-baldness product, IPSTiC patch hair, designed to treat androgenetic alopecia, and reported that it effectively inhibits NO radical and 5α-reductase activity while maintaining safety and stability, suggesting its potential for topical use.

This article discusses how DNA-based phenotyping is used by police to create visual profiles of suspects from crime scene samples, but reports no new research findings.

This study identified differentially expressed proteins and pathways potentially involved in wool bending in Zhongwei goats, with specific genes like COL6A1 and CRNN emerging as important candidates in this process.

This systematic review found that hair loss was more frequently observed in acne patients on isotretinoin doses ≥0.5 mg/kg/d compared to those on lower doses, suggesting dose-dependent effects.

This study introduced the Lichen Planus Activity and Damage Index (LiPADI), which effectively assesses the severity and progression of lichen planus, aligning well with other clinical indicators.

This study concludes that the Greek version of the Dysmorphic Concern Questionnaire is a reliable and valid tool for assessing body dysmorphic disorder-related concerns in both research and clinical settings.

This study developed and validated a highly sensitive method using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry for accurately analyzing nine neuroactive steroids in human serum, which could enhance understanding of disease pathophysiology and support new biomarker and therapeutic discovery.

This review discusses factors affecting wound-induced hair neogenesis in mice and reports no new results; it aims to facilitate meaningful comparisons of experiments across different laboratories.

This study found increasing public interest in hair loss treatments on YouTube, but reported that videos with high viewer engagement are often biased towards promoting dermatology and hair restoration clinics.

This review found that current forensic DNA phenotyping panels for biogeographical ancestry and visible traits face significant limitations due to inconsistencies in terminology, genetic understanding, and genotyping technologies, highlighting the need for harmonization and further research.

This study found that polyamine levels in hair samples differ between androgenic alopecia and alopecia areata, suggesting potential non-invasive biomarkers to distinguish between these hair loss conditions.

This study by Rucker Wright et al. found that hair care practices, particularly traction on relaxed hair, are associated with an increased risk of traction alopecia in African American girls.

Caffeine in hair might help identify people, but it's not always reliable.

This research found that the Hair & Scalp CARE questionnaire is an effective tool for assessing the impact of scalp and hair condition on psychological wellbeing, and suggests healthier hair and scalp are linked to lower stress and better sleep.
