This study observed that in individuals with stroke, the GNRI has a significant negative association with FI and FISI, mediated by the SII index and OBS, suggesting the importance of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant strategies to reduce FI risk.

In this study, an intervention to automatically measure ferritin detected iron deficiency in about 28% of women with alopecia, potentially helping to address hair loss.

This review discusses various causes of hair loss, emphasizing the importance of a structured diagnostic approach, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study at a medical center in Eastern Taiwan found that female alopecia has diverse causes, including nutrient deficiencies, autoimmune diseases, psychological stress, thyroid conditions, and COVID-19 vaccination, with iron deficiency affecting 70.3% of cases.

In this study, telogen effluvium was commonly found to be associated with iron-deficiency anemia and hypothyroidism among female patients in Makkah, Saudi Arabia.

Up to 50% of scalp hair can be lost before it appears thin, and treatment is only needed for hair loss caused by diseases or deficiencies.

Hair loss in women often doesn't follow a pattern, isn't linked to age, may be genetic, and can be related to thyroid issues or other health factors.

In this study, micronutrient intake was associated with androgen levels in women with PCOS, with the association more pronounced in NA PCOS compared to HA PCOS groups.
