Chemical treatments can change the scale heights of wool and cashmere fibers, affecting their identification.

This study observed that different hair types on Tianzhu white yaks have similar ultrastructures, but coarse hair fibers show distinct structural differences across body parts.

This study found that the down-hair fibers of native goats in Turkey have similar characteristics to cashmere fibers, indicating potential for high-quality textile products as a substitute.

This study found that a new 3D image analysis method from SEM images enables quick and accurate measurement of cuticle scale heights in hair fibers.

This manuscript discusses a large-scale cross-sectional analysis on addressing variance in responses to a set of questions by identifying underlying factors, but specific results are not reported in the abstract.

This study analyzed factors affecting the use of trichology services by older adults in Poland, finding that increased interest may result from a growing elderly population, heightened awareness of scalp diseases, and socio-economic and cultural influences that promote health and beauty care among seniors.

This study found that the Antera 3D® system provided an objective and sensitive method for assessing pediatric pathological scars, capturing significant changes in pigmentation, vascularity, and volume, compared to the traditional Vancouver Scar Scale and dermoscopy, which showed varied sensitivities across different scar parameters.

This case report highlights that dermatoscopy and histopathological analysis were crucial for accurately diagnosing Lichen Planopilaris in two patients, leading to a correct diagnosis after initial misdiagnoses.

This study used atomic force microscopy to identify significant morphological differences in hair from patients with lichen planopilaris compared to healthy controls, noting more scratches, uneven edges, and pitted scales in affected hair, which may aid future research on the condition.

This study introduced a new classification method for male pattern baldness in Korean men, detailing six types that could guide hair restoration surgery and further research.

In this study, combining endoscopic forehead lifting with hairline lowering successfully rejuvenated the upper facial area in 194 patients by lowering hairlines by an average of 18 mm and raising eyebrows by 5 mm, without serious complications.

In this study, researchers observed the patterns of hair distribution and scalp anatomy in Chinese young adult males, finding significant variations in hairline shape, hair density, and follicular unit structure.

This case report describes a 24-month-old girl from Nigeria with idiopathic precocious puberty, emphasizing the financial barriers to necessary treatment in developing countries.

This study found that premature hair graying in young Turkish men and women is associated with emotional stress, alcohol consumption, chronic diseases, and a family history of graying.

In this study, patients with pre-sternal keloids who received intralesional injections of a combination of triamcinolone acetonide and hyaluronidase showed reduced pruritis, pain, and lesion size, along with improved vascularity and pliability scores, although recurrence may require further treatment.

Vibration anesthesia can significantly lessen the pain during hair restoration surgery.

This study found that pediatric alopecia areata patients with atopic predisposition showed heightened immune and inflammatory responses, including significant immune cell infiltration, compared to adults and healthy controls.

This study observed that in human scalp hair follicles, BTNL2 expression is lower in stressed conditions, which correlates with increased cytotoxic activity by gamma/delta and CD8+ T cells, suggesting a possible role for BTNL2 in controlling immune responses relevant to alopecia areata.

This review discusses the components and risks of metabolic syndrome and emphasizes lifestyle changes as a primary treatment approach; it reports no new clinical results.

Antiandrogens can treat excess body hair and hair loss by blocking male hormones.

In this study, testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone in children's hair were strongly correlated, supporting hair as a potential method for measuring these hormones.
