This study formulated a polyherbal shampoo from plant extracts, finding it showed effective antifungal properties against dandruff-causing agents like Malassezia species while providing protective and conditioning effects on hair cuticles, indicating its potential as a natural alternative for dandruff management.

This study found that a formulated polyherbal shampoo demonstrated effective antifungal properties against dandruff-causing fungi, with smooth, intact hair cuticles after treatment, suggesting it may serve as a safe, natural alternative for managing dandruff.

This study found that incorporating CTA2-BADG, a modified hair-rebonding compound, into damaged hair significantly improved surface morphology and tensile strength by using charge-conversion chemistry to enhance penetration into the hair shaft.

In this study, utilizing a mixture of crushed sky fruit seeds and sodium salt for goat skin preservation led to a significant reduction in environmental impact, decreasing total dissolved solids by 59% and chloride content by 44%, while maintaining the physical quality of processed leather.

This paper explores how the immunological responses of breast cancer patients are transformed into an economic process by commoditizing treatment-related needs, documenting this journey through an ethnographic study with a breast cancer charity.

This study found that pregnancies with gestational diabetes in a Midwestern U.S. cohort demonstrated elevated androgen levels compared to healthy controls, suggesting a common relationship between impaired glucose tolerance and hyperandrogenemia across diverse ethnic backgrounds.

In this study, EDA-A2 transgenic mice exhibited multifocal myodegeneration dependent on XEDAR, suggesting a potential role for XEDAR in skeletal muscle homeostasis.

This study found that the nanostructured lipid carrier gel containing minoxidil showed good consistency and a prolonged drug release in vitro, suggesting potential for treating alopecia.

Minoxidil improves blood flow in heart failure patients.

This pilot study suggests that using growth factors followed by microneedle therapy may benefit women with female pattern hair loss.

This article illustrates various hair shaft defects and suggests that dermatologists can diagnose most of them using light microscopy and polarization without needing advanced imaging techniques.

Propranolol affects heart rate and renin levels in minoxidil-treated patients.

This study describes the development of polyamide 6 composite fibers with amber filler, finding them suitable for use in medical textiles such as compression garments due to their biocompatibility with skin cells.

This case report from the study describes a dog suffering from dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum canis, presenting with alopecia on the neck and ear, illustrating the zoonotic risk of these fungal infections in both animals and humans, particularly in hot and humid climates.

This study created a novel classification for dermatological and cosmiatric changes caused by cancer treatments, categorizing them as triggered, exacerbated, or unrelated to the treatment.

In this study, a bioengineered construct using a biodegradable polycaprolactone mat cocultured with human keratinocyte and rabbit dermal fibroblast cells demonstrated potential as a tissue-engineered skin substitute, showing good cell adhesion and growth.

Epigenetic differences affect hair loss in identical Japanese male twins.

In this study, researchers found that a protein-enriched cream made from Spirulina platensis improved the physical structure of natural hair, as evidenced by more intact and smoother cuticles compared to a control cream without protein, suggesting its potential for hair care applications.

This study found that mink pelts with "singe" and "red hip" defects often exhibit split hair tips and altered cuticle structures, which may contribute to their undesired metallic sheen.

In this study, researchers reported that individuals with post-COVID-19 alopecia experienced a significant impact on their quality of life, particularly in the vitality domain, when compared to those without alopecia.
