This study developed and validated a computational model to optimize skin precooling methods for minimizing thermal damage during laser procedures.

Vitiligo is not linked to coeliac disease, but a small number of alopecia areata patients may have it, suggesting they should be tested for coeliac disease.

Men with a certain type of hair loss (AGA) have higher bad cholesterol and lower good cholesterol levels, making them more likely to get heart disease.

This review discusses the role of scalp imaging techniques in trichology for researching drug delivery and toxicology, without presenting new clinical results.

This study found that quiescent bulge stem cells, when prevented from contributing to hair follicle and epidermal regeneration, did not affect hair follicle growth or wound healing in the short term.

Tofacitinib helped regrow hair in people with severe alopecia, but side effects occurred and benefits stopped after treatment ended.

Minoxidil helps some bald men, but most lose hair again when stopping.

This study found that NGAL expression increased in calcium-induced keratinocyte differentiation in vitro and was highly elevated in psoriasis-like skin conditions and skin cancers, suggesting a role in skin hyperplasia and homeostasis.

This study found that depression and chronic stress are highly correlated in pregnant women, suggesting different stress mechanisms modulate hair cortisol levels in depressed versus non-depressed individuals.

This report describes two cases of white piedra caused by Trichosporon inkin in a northern climate, detailing clinical findings and diagnosis without presenting new experimental results.

This study concluded that PCOS patients, regardless of weight, have significantly lower serum amylin levels than healthy BMI-matched controls, while serum preptin levels did not vary significantly between groups.

This study observed that using 3D dermal papilla microtissues enhances hair follicle regeneration and gene expression compared to 2D cultures, indicating their potential for hair growth drug screening.

This paper cites a prospective, randomized, double-blind, controlled trial investigating laser laparoscopy for pelvic pain associated with minimal to moderate endometriosis but reports no new results.

Men can have genetic risks for PCOS-related traits like obesity and diabetes.

This study found that among premenopausal women taking flibanserin, consuming wine with an evening meal may increase the risk of syncope and orthostatic hypotension-related adverse events compared to placebo.

This abstract contains subscription and access information for Wolters Kluwer Health journals but reports no research findings.

This article contains news and announcements related to Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery but provides no new research findings.

In this study, single fibrinogen/LDL apheresis showed a significant improvement in speech perception for patients with plasma fibrinogen concentrations over 295 mg/dL compared to standard treatment for sudden sensorineural hearing loss.

This review reports that while ginseng's safety profile seems favorable, the evidence for its clinical efficacy remains limited due to generally poor study quality in the included Korean randomized trials.

This study found that electrophoretic keratin typing of head hair can identify specific polypeptide patterns, suggesting potential applications in genetic and forensic investigations.

In this laboratory study, procyanidin B2 inhibited early plant growth and biochemical responses in wheat seedlings treated with lipopolysaccharides from Azospirillum brasilense, suggesting that plant response activation requires LPS recognition by plant cells.

This study found that radiofrequency microneedling is effective and well-tolerated for improving various skin conditions, showing comparable efficacy to fractional lasers for atrophic acne scars with generally favorable patient satisfaction and safety.

This paper examines the rising popularity and potential benefits of rice water for hair care, noting that while it contains beneficial compounds like inositol that may increase hair strength and decrease frizz, there is still no definitive scientific proof of its efficacy.

In this study, researchers estimated that 80% of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 experienced at least one long-term symptom, with fatigue being the most common.

This review examines the direct-to-consumer genetic testing market, highlighting the available tests, regulatory issues, and calls for increased oversight, and reports no new results.

This article discusses the influence of estrogens on hair follicle growth and metabolism, suggesting a significant role alongside androgens in hair growth control but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that daily oral finasteride may increase hair count and improve hair appearance assessments in men with androgenetic alopecia, but it also appears to raise the risk of sexual dysfunction.

This review concluded that oral finasteride for men and topical minoxidil for both genders have the most evidence supporting their effectiveness and safety for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This review indicates that estrogen loss during menopause significantly impacts skin health, while estrogen treatment may increase skin collagen, thickness, and elasticity, though effects on other skin characteristics are inconsistent.

This systematic review concluded that the support for using spironolactone at commonly prescribed doses is based on evidence of limited quality.
