      Treatment of Refractory Hypertension

      research Treatment of Refractory Hypertension

      51 citations, April 1982 in “Lancet”
      Most patients with hard-to-treat high blood pressure can be managed effectively with various treatments, but no single treatment is perfect.
      Management of Hidradenitis Suppurativa

      research Management of Hidradenitis Suppurativa

      4 citations, June 2002 in “Clinical and experimental dermatology”
      Effective treatment for hidradenitis suppurativa varies, with antibiotics commonly used and surgery as an option, but no single method is universally successful.
      Numerical Methods for Decision-Making in Clinical Care: Where to Now?

      research Numerical Methods for Decision-Making in Clinical Care: Where to Now?

      August 1988 in “Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine”
      Hyperbaric oxygen therapy shows promise for multiple sclerosis, but skepticism and funding issues limit tech use in clinics, and outdated single-drug cancer treatments may cause unnecessary side effects.
      Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia

      research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia

      129 citations, May 2015 in “Cell Stem Cell”
      Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
      Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research 2015

      research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research 2015

      January 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings”
      The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
