research The Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Evolutionary Paradox: A Genome-Wide Association Studies-Based, In Silico, Evolutionary Explanation
The research suggests that the global distribution of PCOS is likely due to historical human migration and that genes affecting PCOS may have different impacts on males and females.
research Module-Based Complexity Formation: Periodic Patterning in Feathers and Hairs
The conclusion is that understanding how feathers and hairs pattern can help in developing hair regeneration treatments.
research Adult Female Acne and Associated Risk Factors: Results of a Multicenter Case-Control Study in Italy
The study found that family history, personal history of adolescent acne, no pregnancies, hirsutism, office work, stress, and low intake of fruits/vegetables and fish are risk factors for adult female acne.

research Phosphatidic Acid Has Potential to Promote Hair Growth In Vitro and In Vivo, and Activates Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase/Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase Kinase in Hair Epithelial Cells
Phosphatidic acid may help hair grow by affecting cell growth pathways.
research Biology of Hair Growth
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone affect hair growth, and new techniques like the folliculogram help study it, but fully understanding hair growth is still complex.
research Minoxidil-Induced Hypertrichosis: Treatment with Calcium Thioglycolate Depilatory Agent
Minoxidil causes excessive hair growth, but depilatory agent removes it safely and effectively.
research Use of Silicon for Skin and Hair Care: An Approach to Chemical Forms Available and Efficacy
Silicon can improve skin and hair health, but more research is needed.

Modified rat stem cells on a special scaffold improved blood vessel formation and wound healing in skin substitutes.
research Analysis of Structural Changes in Permanent Waved Human Hair Using Raman Spectroscopy
Permanent waving weakens hair by altering its protein structure.
research Addressing an Antiferromagnetic Memory
Researchers developed a new type of memory using antiferromagnets that is stable, not disrupted by magnets, and works at room temperature.
research Serum Levels of Retinol-Binding Protein 4 and Adiponectin in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Associations with Visceral Fat but No Evidence for Fat Mass-Independent Effects on Pathogenesis in This Condition
Women with PCOS have similar levels of certain proteins compared to women without PCOS, and these proteins don't independently cause PCOS.
research Hair Shaft Abnormalities: Clues to Diagnosis and Treatment
Hair problems can be caused by genetics or the environment, and treatment should focus on the cause and reducing hair damage.
research To Grow or Not to Grow: Hair Morphogenesis and Human Genetic Hair Disorders
