This study supports the use of the chicken chorioallantoic membrane as an effective pre-clinical model for burn wound research and the screening of new therapeutic agents.

This study reviewed existing evidence on using PRP to manage ankle osteoarthritis, reporting significant short-term improvements in pain and function in patients with stage II-III OA, but concluded there is insufficient high-quality evidence to establish its overall effectiveness and safety.

This review reports that oral collagen peptide supplements may improve skin elasticity, hydration, and wrinkle appearance while also supporting hair and nail health and wound healing, but emphasizes the need for longer, high-quality studies due to current research limitations and variability in findings.

This review reports that nanoparticles, especially those optimized to 300-400nm, may enhance follicular drug delivery compared to conventional formulations, offering targeted therapy for conditions like androgenic alopecia, acne, and psoriasis.

This review highlights advancements in transfollicular drug delivery, noting that nanoparticles optimized to 300-400nm improve drug penetration into hair follicles better than conventional formulations, and that novel stimulus-responsive systems offer enhanced targeted delivery for conditions like androgenic alopecia and acne.

This study evaluated the efficacy of polyphenolic compounds for hair growth in adults with non-scarring alopecia and found that these interventions significantly improved hair density and total area hair count compared to controls, although results were not significantly different from minoxidil.

In this systematic review and meta‐analysis, botulinum toxin monotherapy was found to significantly increase hair density in patients with androgenetic alopecia, with optimal effects observed using a 100-unit dose every six months. These findings suggest potential efficacy but should be confirmed in larger, placebo-controlled trials.

This study suggests that autologous platelet concentrates may improve inflammatory activity, disease control, and hair regrowth in primary cicatricial alopecia, but the evidence is limited by small sample sizes and study quality.

This chapter reviews the complex relationship between PCOS and sexual dysfunction, highlighting its fundamental role as a biopsychosocial manifestation rather than a secondary complication, and calls for comprehensive, patient-centered care; it reports no new clinical results.

This review identified significant effects of photobiomodulation therapy on pain reduction in burning mouth syndrome, disability in knee osteoarthritis, and fatigue in fibromyalgia, but noted that most outcomes had low-to-moderate certainty of evidence, indicating a need for further high-quality trials.

This review discusses the use of adipose tissue and platelet-rich plasma in tissue repair and regeneration, noting their promise in surgical outcomes but emphasizing the need for further research to optimize therapies.

In this systematic review and meta-analysis, PRP therapy significantly improved hair density and thickness for women experiencing hair loss, with mild and transient adverse effects, suggesting potential tailored treatment protocols based on dosage, injection duration, and ethnicity.

This review discusses the role of extracellular vesicles in dermatology for therapeutic, diagnostic, and prognostic purposes, highlighting the lack of validated findings and the necessity for more rigorous clinical trials.

This review reports on the current state and potential of solid lipid nanoparticles for drug delivery, emphasizing their safety, biocompatibility, and ease of production, and highlights challenges in translating them to clinical practice, including active clinical trials.

This review article highlights recent progress and challenges in stem cell transplantation for regenerative medicine, emphasizing its potential in tissue repair for conditions like bone and cartilage injuries, neurological disorders, and blood diseases, while stressing the importance of overcoming current obstacles for future advancements.

This study found that global PCOS prevalence in adolescents is 6.3% under new 2023 guideline criteria, compared to 9.8% using Rotterdam criteria; excluding PCOM may prevent over-diagnosis, while recognizing irregular cycles or hyperandrogenism helps avoid under-diagnosis by identifying at-risk individuals for further monitoring.

In vitro skin models are improving but still need more innovation to fully replicate human skin.

This study reported cold thermal injuries on the scalp in four patients using cold caps to prevent chemotherapy-induced alopecia, suggesting improper application can lead to adverse events.

This source highlighted the promising potential of polynucleotides in aesthetic medicine but emphasized the need for rigorous, high-quality studies to validate their effectiveness and safety.

This review discusses how extracellular vesicles play a dual role in age-related diseases by contributing to both disease pathogenesis and potential therapeutic strategies through the transfer of specific molecules.

This review discusses the state-of-the-art in photobiomodulation therapy for oral and dental applications and emphasizes the need for education, training, and addressing logistical issues for its routine use.

This review highlighted that in an in vitro setting, 3D spheroid cultures of fish cells offer a promising alternative to traditional monolayer cultures, potentially advancing research in eco-toxicology, immunology, drug screening, and more by better mimicking in vivo conditions.

This review emphasizes that collaboration between forensic anthropology and molecular anthropology could significantly improve the identification of unknown human remains by creating more comprehensive biological profiles.

This review found that current forensic DNA phenotyping panels for biogeographical ancestry and visible traits face significant limitations due to inconsistencies in terminology, genetic understanding, and genotyping technologies, highlighting the need for harmonization and further research.

This review evaluated existing studies on platelet-rich plasma for facial rejuvenation and found limited clinical evidence supporting its effectiveness, suggesting that more research is needed to establish its utility.
