This abstract reviews potential health risks from toxic chemicals in cosmetic products, noting associations with cancer, reproductive issues, and other health conditions, but reports no new research findings.

This review found little evidence supporting zinc as a first-line treatment for dermatological conditions, except in cases of systemic zinc deficiency, and suggests further research is needed.

This study concluded that an adapalene nanohydrogel containing Tween-80 could be a promising and stable topical treatment option for acne vulgaris due to enhanced skin permeability and stability compared to other formulations.

This study found that formulation factors like pH, viscosity, and chemical enhancers can significantly influence intrafollicular hydrocortisone permeation in vitro, with higher pH and enhancers reducing follicular contribution.

This review reports that while anti-androgen therapy can improve hair loss in up to 50% of women with androgenetic alopecia, it typically only slows the rate of loss rather than promoting new growth.

This study observed abnormal extracellular matrix patterns in hair follicles from alopecia areata patients, particularly in the dermal papilla of large anagen follicles and in catagen follicles from lesional sites.

This study found that laboratory-formulated natural shampoos condition hair better than commercial herbal shampoos, as shown by SEM micrograph analysis of hair microstructure.

This study found that anthralin and sodium dodecyl sulfate accelerated hair growth in mice, potentially involving different skin protein kinase C isoform responses.

This study found that a finasteride topical gel formulation using propylene glycol and Tween® 80 showed significantly enhanced permeation compared to a control formulation without these enhancers.

This study found that a cimetidine 10% cream with sodium lauryl sulphate significantly increased drug diffusion through mouse skin and showed promise in treating warts in a preliminary clinical trial.

This study evaluated a herbal anti-dandruff shampoo containing fenugreek and hibiscus and found it had good cleansing action, stable foam, satisfactory pH, and caused no skin irritation, suggesting it may be an effective alternative to synthetic shampoos.

This study formulated a herbal anti-dandruff shampoo using Fenugreek and Hibiscus extracts and found that it provided effective cleansing, stable foam, a satisfactory pH, and no skin irritation, suggesting it as a potential alternative to synthetic shampoos.

This study evaluated the effectiveness of three formulated hair conditioners—Herbal, Synthetic, and Ayurvedic—using organoleptic and physicochemical tests like pH, Dirt Dispersion, and Stability, with the main aim to develop a product that meets user compliance and desired hair care effects.

In this research, the authors developed and tested three types of hair conditioners—Herbal, Synthetic, and Ayurvedic—by analyzing their organoleptic properties and physicochemical parameters to assess their effects on hair manageability and appearance.

This study evaluated the physicochemical properties of an herbal shampoo formulated with natural ingredients like hibiscus and henna and compared it to a common marketed shampoo, finding it effectively replaced some chemical components with safer alternatives while maintaining similar characteristics.

In this study, hair shafts from trichothiodystrophy patients with ERCC2 mutations revealed abnormal cuticle structures and protein imbalances compared to normal hair shafts.

This study found that a novel effervescent formulation significantly increased minoxidil sulphate accumulation in hair follicles and skin compared to a standard minoxidil solution.

This report describes eleven cases of thallium poisoning in individuals who consumed tortillas made from barley mixed with thallium sulphate, leading to symptoms including tingling, abdominal pain, vomiting, and limb weakness.

In this study, melatonin-loaded Pickering emulsions stabilized by chitosan-dextran sulphate nanoparticles and enhanced with lecithin showed improved photostability, antioxidant activity, and follicular delivery in androgenic alopecia-affected rats, potentially rivaling commercial minoxidil for hair loss treatment.

This study identified a fungal sulfotransferase enzyme, FgSULT1, from *Fusarium graminearum*, expanding the sulfotransferase superfamily and offering new biocatalytic methods for producing bioactive sulfates.

Certain ingredients in personal care products, like formaldehyde, oxidative hair dyes, and sulfates, pose health risks and need careful review.

This study introduced a validated LC-MS/MS-based method for profiling long-term steroid concentrations in human scalp hair, offering potential applications in endocrinology research.

This review discusses the role of steroid sulfatase in steroid hormone metabolism and highlights the need for more research on its expression and regulation, especially regarding hormone-dependent tumors.

In this in-vitro study, researchers found that shampoo-induced coacervates structurally resemble cationic polymers and contain anionic surfactants that may stimulate the scalp upon exposure to water.

This study developed an organic hair conditioner using chitosan-thiadiazole conjugates that showed improved hair detangling, moisture retention, and protection without causing irritation, promising an environmentally sustainable approach to hair care.

This review highlights zinc's role in health and disease, noting its involvement in immune function and its therapeutic potential for conditions like alopecia areata and psoriasis, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that a single treatment using macrofocused ultrasound energy with a 2 mm transducer significantly reduced pore count, pore volume, and pore index in 34 Thai subjects with enlarged facial pores over a 6-month period, with no adverse events observed.

This article reviews the role of sulfhydryl compounds, particularly cystine, in sulfur metabolism and the physiology of skin in both normal and pathological conditions, reporting no new findings.

This article discusses oral spironolactone therapy for female patients with acne, hirsutism, or androgenic alopecia and reports no new clinical results.

Finasteride improves hidradenitis suppurativa but not for child-bearing women.
