This study found that off-pump coronary surgery significantly reduces in-hospital morbidity compared to on-pump surgery without affecting midterm outcomes in the first 1-3 years after the procedure.

This review discusses developments in oral contraceptives, highlighting improved individualization, reduced side effects, and enhanced suitability for various women's health needs, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of mechanical forces in skin homeostasis and disease development, including their impact on conditions like keloids, androgenetic alopecia, and acral melanoma, and reports no clinical results; the authors propose modifying these forces as a potential therapeutic strategy.

This article proposes two new categories of cicatricial alopecia—“unstable” and “stable”—and suggests surgical excision as preferred over hair transplantation, especially for unstable cases.

This study found that Florida manatees have unique types of specialized nerve endings in their vibrissae, which assist in their sensory and manipulative functions in aquatic environments.

This study observed that hair breakage may indicate early central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African American women, suggesting that it should be considered in their differential diagnosis.

This study observed that the hair loss in homozygous rhino mice is associated with widening of the hair canal due to hyperkeratosis, leading to insufficient support for hair anchoring.

This narrative review discusses the advantages of bidirectional barbed sutures in wound closure, such as faster placement and no need for knots, but reports no new clinical results.

This review evaluates dihydrotestosterone's role in androgenic alopecia and proposes a model suggesting that chronic scalp tension and inflammation contribute to hair follicle miniaturization, identifying fibrosis, calcification, and tension as treatment targets.

This review discusses the limited objective evidence for using finasteride in women with alopecia, suggesting that it could be considered for those who don't benefit from minoxidil, but reports no new clinical results.

This article describes cases of unusual scalp whorl patterns, including triple parietal and right temporal whorls, that were associated with normal development, and discusses theories of hair whorl development.

This study found that acne inversa is primarily an epithelial-driven disease, with cyst-forming tendrils causing inflammation due to rupture and the release of debris, highlighting limitations of punch biopsies for analysis.

In this study, extracts from Chenopodium quinoa, Glycine max, and Malpighia emarginata demonstrated stability, low toxicity, and effective cleaning potential as surfactants in shampoo formulations, showing performance similar to or better than commercial shampoos in terms of surface and interfacial tension and sebum removal.

This study found that discoid lupus erythematous was the most common type of primary cicatricial alopecia, predominantly affecting middle-aged women.

This study found that both patients and physicians expressed dissatisfaction with disease control in systemic lupus erythematosus, with patients showing greater dissatisfaction than physicians regarding symptoms.

This case report describes successful treatment of trichomycosis axillaris, a bacterial infection of hair shafts, using shaving and topical antibiotics, resulting in complete odor elimination within weeks.

This study found that Cynatine HNS significantly improved hair and nail health in women after 90 days compared to placebo.

This study reported that a new surgical technique resulted in minimal scars visible to the naked eye in most cases, suggesting a significant improvement over conventional closure techniques.

This study identified an optimal sulfate-free and silicone-free conditioning shampoo formulation using 1% hyaluronic acid at 800 kDa, 10% acidic sophorolipid, and 1% sodium chloride, which maintains essential conditioning and cleansing properties without compromising on performance.

This article discusses the minimal research on hair growth physiology and highlights Dr. Masumi Inaba's contributions to understanding androgenetic alopecia, but reports no new experimental results.

This study discusses how redox imbalance, specifically through reduced Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 mediated by the transcription factor JunB and sphingolipid metabolism changes, contributes to skin aging by depleting stem cell pools and altering the extracellular matrix, ultimately impacting skin integrity and function.

This study presented a case series of erosive pustular dermatosis on the scalps of elderly patients, noting unusual presentation with hypergranulation tissue and unique dermoscopic vascular patterns, diverging from typical manifestations.

This study found that African and Caucasian hair contain the most lipids, and depletion of these lipids leads to less water retention and increased water desorption, with Caucasian hair showing improved breaking tenacity after lipid extraction.

This piece discusses the benefits of head support during follicular unit extraction in a seated position and reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest an ergonomic support system to improve graft quality.

In this randomized controlled trial, oral intake of the probiotic Latilactobacillus curvatus LB-P9 significantly improved hair luster, elasticity, and participant satisfaction in individuals with mild to moderate hair damage compared to placebo, without significant adverse effects reported.

This abstract lists authors and their affiliations but does not provide any research findings or insights.

This study found that while some extracts from DanGuiBoHyulTangGami-Bang showed potential in inhibiting 5-reductase type Ⅱ and had antioxidant activity, they were not effective in extending the hair growth period.

This study found that the down-hair fibers of native goats in Turkey have similar characteristics to cashmere fibers, indicating potential for high-quality textile products as a substitute.

This study found that individuals with alopecia areata experience variations in cortisol and insulin levels and adaptive mechanism pressures, which may serve as potential therapeutic targets.

In this case report, the authors identified giant cell arteritis as the underlying cause of bitemporal hair loss and scalp tenderness in a 70-year-old woman, initially misdiagnosed as age-related symptoms.
