This review highlights essential preoperative assessments for ophthalmologists and non-oculo-facial surgeons performing upper facial rejuvenation, emphasizing the importance of understanding ocular and periocular anatomy to achieve both cosmetic and functional improvements.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome had worse meibomian gland morphology and ocular surface conditions compared to healthy controls, as observed through non-contact meibography.

This study found that men with benign prostate hyperplasia showed increased meibomian gland dysfunction and tear film instability compared to age-matched controls, and were also more likely to have androgenic alopecia.

In a retrospective study, researchers found that topical spironolactone improved tear film quality and reduced inflammation related to meibomian gland dysfunction and evaporative dry eye in patients, demonstrating good tolerability and suggesting it as a potential therapy for managing the condition.

This study found that the extract of Bidens pilosa L. improved dry eye symptoms associated with androgen deficiency in rats by enhancing tear production, stabilizing the tear film, and reducing lacrimal gland inflammation.

This study demonstrates that bioengineered lacrimal gland germs can successfully develop and restore tear production and ocular surface protection in a mouse model with lacrimal gland dysfunction.

This review discusses the presence of the StAR protein in 17 non-classical steroidogenic tissues, suggesting that advanced detection methods are needed for a complete understanding of its functions in these tissues.

This retrospective study in pediatric patients with Sjögren's syndrome found consistent indications of tear film instability and identified systemic features like arthralgia, Raynaud's phenomenon, and frequent autoantibody positivity, underscoring the value of integrating clinical and ophthalmological assessments for early diagnosis.

This chapter reviews therapies for skin and corneal regeneration and hair loss, discussing various treatments but presenting no new research findings.

In this study, researchers introduced a machine learning approach to discover new nanozymes through the DiZyme platform, enabling the accurate prediction of multiple catalytic activities, and providing a comprehensive database and assistant resources for users.

This study found that a blink frequency of at least 20 blinks per minute is necessary to maintain tear film stability in young participants with dry eye symptoms, with lower frequencies significantly worsening various indicators of eye dryness.

This study reported that topical spironolactone improved lid margin vascularity, corneal fluorescein staining, and disease severity scores in patients with ocular graft-versus-host disease, suggesting a potential therapeutic role by enhancing corneal lipid production with minimal adverse effects.

Understanding hair structure and growth is key for diagnosing hair diseases accurately.

This review discusses the role of Demodex mites in ocular demodecosis and various eye ailments, highlighting diagnostic methods but noting a lack of standardized treatments, with no new clinical results reported.

This symposium abstract reports no new experimental results and discusses the pathophysiology of hair growth as presented at an event organized by the Institute of Dermatology.

This study found that various steroids affected the mRNA expression of enzymes involved in lipid metabolism in hamster flank organs, with different impacts depending on the steroid and combination used.

This review discusses the broadening scope of botulinum toxin applications beyond traditional uses, highlighting its effects on non-neuronal cells and potential in treating various dermatological conditions, without reporting new clinical findings.

This article reviews various causes and investigative techniques for different forms of alopecia and reports no new findings.

In this study, primary cilia were found to contribute to meibomian gland enlargement and lipid production, though they are not necessary for normal gland development.

This paper introduces the Follicular Unit Extraction procedure and its accompanying FOX Test, finding that 60% of tested patients were suitable candidates for this minimally invasive hair transplantation method.

This review discusses the range of long-term complications, including mucocutaneous, ocular, and psychological sequelae, for survivors of Stevens–Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis, but reports no new clinical results.

This paper introduces Follicular Unit Extraction and reports the FOX Test can identify suitable candidates, with about 25% of patients being ideal and 35% being good candidates for the procedure.

This review discusses the biological and cosmetic aspects of hair aging and reports no new clinical results; it highlights current treatments and future research directions to address both aging factors.

This article discusses Serenoa repens (Saw palmetto) for preventing and treating androgenic alopecia, highlighting its phytosterols' role and lack of side effects but reports no new clinical results.

This study demonstrated that steroidal carbamates 7–10 altered mRNA expression related to lipid metabolism in hamster flank organs and inhibited 5α-reductase activity without binding to the progesterone receptor.

This review discusses autoimmune blistering diseases across species and highlights new treatment efficacy findings and ongoing trials, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses treatment approaches for female pattern hair loss and concludes that available medical treatments are effective in reversing or stabilizing the condition in most cases of mild-to-moderate severity.

This study reviews how advancements in nanotechnology have improved food safety, nutrition delivery, and health interventions, but it also highlights the need for more research into safety evaluations and regulatory concerns.

This study found that finasteride-induced androgen deficiency in an animal model resulted in tear deficiency and increased inflammatory cytokine expression in the lacrimal gland, potentially aiding in understanding dry eye pathogenesis.

In this study, researchers developed and tested a gel containing apocynin-loaded nanoparticles that showed promising results in treating rheumatoid arthritis in rats, suggesting potential for novel topical treatments in inflammatory conditions.
