This case study reported that scalp dermoscopy, or trichoscopy, provided a useful noninvasive method to evaluate and confirm hair regrowth in a child treated for tinea capitis.

This article discusses the potential for disposable instruments in hair restoration surgery, noting that their development will follow demand, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study developed an emulgel containing Saw Palmetto extract and Sophora Japonica tincture for treating androgenic alopecia, optimizing its preparation process to enhance dispersion and rheological properties.

This study suggests that while hair analysis using GC-MS is a sensitive method for detecting cocaine ingestion, it may not reliably indicate the amount, timing, or duration of drug use due to interindividual variability and multiple incorporation mechanisms.

In this study, polymeric micelles containing retinoic acid were found to improve targeted delivery to hair follicle structures in human skin more efficiently than a marketed retinoic acid gel, suggesting potentially safer and more effective acne treatment.

This study found that self-noncoding dsRNA activates TLR3 to stimulate intrinsic retinoic acid synthesis, promoting new hair follicle formation in wounded mice and showing similar gene expression changes in humans treated with rejuvenation lasers.

This study identified four circRNAs with significantly different expression levels in Liaoning cashmere goats, suggesting a potential role in regulating cashmere fineness.

This study found that in rodent diabetes models, measuring corticosterone levels in new growth hair was more sensitive to hyperglycemia-induced changes than using old hair or serum samples.

This study reports that milk goats exhibit significantly more differentially expressed genes related to hair follicle cycling across different months compared to cashmere goats, especially in December.

Pollution exposure speeds up hair damage.

This study developed and validated a high-performance liquid chromatographic method for identifying finasteride and its degradation products, showing excellent resolution and sensitivity under various decomposition conditions.

This study investigated the formation of Type III brush hair in Chinese Haimen goats and identified genetic factors that may involve heat stress in the process.

This study found that keratin phenotypes were consistent across different types of hair from the same individual, allowing for successful keratin typing following ABH blood group determination.

This study used a newly validated method to find that one-year finasteride treatment resulted in no significant differences in urinary androgen and prostaglandin levels between male pattern baldness patients and normal controls.

This study observed that ethyl glucuronide (EtG) concentrations in hair decreased significantly during an abstinent period, suggesting possible wash-out effects or other factors affecting EtG levels.

This study developed and validated a comprehensive method using mass spectrometry to profile sex (pro)hormones in plasma, with results showing reliable calibration and detection of 31 analytes in samples from pre- and postmenopausal women and men, while addressing potential over- or underestimations in analyte concentrations.

This study identified key genes and signaling pathways involved in cashmere goat hair follicle growth cycles, influenced by melatonin implantation, suggesting a basis for further research on melatonin's regulatory mechanism.

This study found that measuring certain steroids in hair can help diagnose and monitor congenital adrenal hyperplasia in Indonesian patients, offering a simple noninvasive method for developing countries.

This study developed a new measurement procedure using isotope dilution-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry for accurate quantification of DHEAS in human serum or plasma, demonstrating high selectivity, sensitivity, and low measurement uncertainty, making it suitable for routine standardization and clinical evaluation.

This study found that ulcerative colitis is associated with diverse molecular changes and chronic inflammation, with some biomarker levels partially recovering during remission.

This study introduced a new high-throughput method for analyzing scalp hair morphology and found that quantifying hair form provides more accurate information than traditional classification based on racial categories, challenging the belief that cross-sectional morphology predicts hair curvature.

This study found that the heartwood extract of Avicennia marina demonstrated strong antioxidant activity, with an IC50 value of 61.50 µg/mL, suggesting potential for development into supplements or topical applications targeting degenerative diseases related to oxidative stress.

This study found that hair from the vertex posterior is a reliable sampling region for detecting zolpidem intake, showing consistent drug concentration and peak position compared to other scalp regions.

This study found that a mixed extract of N. jatamansi, O. basilicum, and C. sativus, particularly when extracted via steaming and ultrasonic methods, increased antioxidant content, stimulated melanin production for black hair, and promoted hair growth in mouse models, while maintaining high cell viability.

This study used quantitative methods to identify new geometric and mechanical parameters of curly and kinky/coily hair, aiming to improve classification and develop better personal care products for these hair types.

This study developed a rapid and sensitive method for determining finasteride concentrations in pharmaceuticals, with results comparable to those from the standard HPLC method.

This study found high levels of toxic heavy metals in water sources of mining communities in Abakaliki, Nigeria, posing potential health risks including Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases.

The researchers reported that they successfully developed and validated RP-HPLC and TLC methods for accurately measuring tamsulosin hydrochloride and finasteride in combination forms.

This review discusses platelet-rich plasma therapy for nonscarring alopecia and reports no new clinical results; the author recommends more large-scale controlled studies, particularly for scarring alopecia and symptom control.

This study found that androgenetic alopecia may involve a defect in the conversion of hair follicle stem cells to progenitor cells, as demonstrated by a reduced presence of progenitor cells in bald scalp samples.
