In this study, aesthetic surgery significantly improved body image and psychological health; however, high preoperative body image distress predicted lower satisfaction post-surgery, highlighting the importance of psychological screening to manage expectations and outcomes.

This study found that total head shaving during brain tumor surgery is significantly associated with lower postoperative self-esteem in patients, suggesting that minimizing shaving when possible could improve psychological recovery.

This study found that WNT10A is significantly upregulated in human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and is associated with enhanced tumor cell migration, invasion, and poor survival.

This study found that sebaceous glands in the skin are primarily renewed by their own stem cells during normal conditions, but after injury, they regenerate through stem cells from hair follicles, highlighting stem cell plasticity and regeneration capabilities.

This study presents a new survey instrument that was cognitively tested for understanding menstrual cycle characteristics and androgen excess, including hirsutism, alopecia, and acne.

This study reviews methods to ensure the reliability of machine learning models in medical imaging, focusing on bias detection, data drift assessment, and accuracy estimation without ground truth labels to enhance integration into clinical settings.

This study found that C8/144B antibody exclusively binds to the hair follicle bulge and not the epidermal stratum basale, with cytokeratin 19 serving as a key marker of certain basal keratinocytes that decrease with age.

This study found that the 1 mg dose of finasteride was associated with a wide range of adverse effects, including sexual, psychological, and metabolic symptoms, in the FAERS data.

This study found that the urgency of self-triage decisions can be influenced by whether a disorder is presented using newer medical terminology rather than lay terms.

This study found that younger, unmarried individuals under 40, especially women, experienced significant anxiety and depression due to androgenetic alopecia, impacting their psychological well-being and self-perception.

This review discusses the evolution of lineage-tracing strategies over the past century, emphasizing their role in identifying progenitor cells and resolving debates about cellular origins, with no new results reported.

In this study, researchers developed a multifunctional, injectable hydrogel that adapts to irregularly shaped wounds, enhances healing, and shows potential antibacterial activity without significant toxicity, suggesting promise for treating chronic wounds.

This study observed that the biophysical properties of hair in Caucasian females with brown hair significantly change with age, and smoking or being overweight was linked to smaller hair cross-sectional areas.

This study observed that 2.5% of patients with mycosis fungoides or Szary syndrome experienced alopecia, predominantly within skin lesions, with scalp metastases from other cancers also potentially causing hair loss, highlighting the diagnostic value of trichoscopy in differentiating alopecia types.

This study used a mouse model to enhance understanding of alopecia pathogenesis and suggested a therapeutic strategy for managing inflammation in EGFR-inhibitor therapy-induced folliculitis and cicatricial alopecia.

This review discusses recent findings on how root hairs and root exudate secretion play critical roles in recruiting nitrogen-fixing bacteria, potentially aiding the development of cereal crops that can use atmospheric nitrogen, which may reduce reliance on synthetic fertilizers.

This study found that while genetic ancestry affects physical appearance traits in Latin American populations, it accounts for only a modest portion of the observed variation.

In this randomized, double-blind trial, researchers observed that low-level laser therapy led to significantly greater hair regrowth on treated areas compared to a sham treatment in patients with androgenetic alopecia over 24 weeks, suggesting it as a potentially effective and safe option.

This study found that ectopic expression of Whn in transgenic mice caused impaired differentiation in epidermis and hair follicles, with hair growth defects and severe urinary tract issues leading to hydronephrosis.

This study found that platelet-derived growth factor signaling is crucial for maintaining the hair follicle dermal stem cell pool and supporting their regenerative capacity.

In this study, peptide nanofiber gels RG and RJ significantly accelerated the healing of deep second-degree burn wounds in vivo, with greater wound closure rates and enhanced tissue regeneration compared to controls, attributed to increased angiogenesis and reduced systemic inflammation.

This study demonstrated that supplementing aged mice with pro-IGF-II improved muscle regeneration by enhancing satellite cell proliferation and reducing adipogenesis, suggesting potential benefits for treating muscle injuries in elderly individuals.

This study found that the interaction between heat shock protein 90 and lamin A/C is crucial for the growth, migration, and self-aggregation of dermal papilla cells, suggesting a potential role in alopecia areata mechanisms.

This study found that hyaluronic acid increased the size and cell proliferation of mixed aggregates in a 3D culture model, indicating its role in human hair follicle germ-like structure formation without enhancing dermal papilla cell markers.

This study found that patients with alopecia perceive their hair loss as more severe than dermatologists do, and their own ratings of hair loss severity better reflect their quality of life impacts.

This study successfully developed 3D hair follicle organoids from neonatal mouse epidermal and dermal cells, showing structural and molecular resemblance to native anagen hair follicles.

In this study, men seeking treatment for male pattern hair loss were highly concerned about their condition and had often attempted self-treatment, but many were dissatisfied with their physician consultations due to unmet expectations and perceived indifference from doctors.

This review discusses current stem cell technologies, their potential therapeutic uses, and imaging techniques for tracking transplanted cells, without reporting new experimental results.

In this study, a novel GAN-based image translation method focusing on regions of interest showed improved predictive performance for post-hair transplant images compared to existing methods, using an ensemble approach to enhance robustness and detection accuracy.

In this study, researchers used advanced four-dimensional optical imaging techniques to observe changes in skin afflicted with acne, finding increased epidermal thickness, keratinized hair follicles, inflammation, and aggregated blood flow, helping to distinguish between inflammation and reparative phases of acne progression.
