This study suggests that androgenetic alopecia moderately affects quality of life, with women experiencing a higher impact and showing a greater willingness to pay for treatment than men.

In this review, the researchers identify and discuss promising molecular and genetic targets for lung cancer therapy, suggesting that advancements in understanding these targets could lead to new drug developments and more effective treatments.

This review found that exosomes, which are tiny vesicles from various cells, play important roles in maintaining skin health, influencing conditions like psoriasis and acne, and hold potential as biomarkers and therapies, though more research is needed to overcome clinical challenges.

This study found that platelet-rich fibrin lysates modulate chemokine expression, reducing inflammation in oral squamous carcinoma cells, but increasing expression in primary oral epithelial cells.

This study found that a shampoo containing 1% selenium sulfide and 1% salicylic acid significantly improved the clinical signs and symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis and dandruff over an 8-week period.

This systematic review found that estrogen deficiency in postmenopausal women leads to structural and symptomatic changes in genital and cutaneous tissues, with local estrogen therapy providing short-term benefits, while evidence for device-based treatments remains limited and requires larger trials.

Hair shaft disorders often indicate genetic or systemic issues and are managed by minimizing damage.

This study highlights the significant ethnomedicinal potential of Asteraceae species used in traditional medicine, particularly for treating inflammatory and skin-related diseases.

This systematic review and meta-analysis suggest that oral minoxidil may be a safer and more effective option for children with hair disorders and refractory hypertension, though further large-scale trials are needed.

In this descriptive cross-sectional study conducted at a Karachi hospital, researchers found a high prevalence of Telogen Effluvium in female COVID-19 survivors, particularly those with diabetes, and noted that dietary supplementation may be linked to reduced hair loss severity post-infection.

This review suggests that while minoxidil is effective in promoting hair growth, its precise mechanism remains unclear, and it may have emerging applications in treating various dermatological conditions.
