This study observed that two patients treated with interferon α-2b and ribavirin for chronic hepatitis C experienced complete and reversible straightening of their natural curly hair, which recurred with treatment resumption.

This study proposes a method for automatically removing hairs from skin lesion images by using edge-tangent flow for hair detection and texture synthesis for restoring occluded regions with minimal artifacts.

The researchers reported that differences in brain functional connectivity between unmedicated seasonal affective disorder patients and healthy controls vary with ICA model order, peaking in volume at model order 70.

This study introduced a novel deep clustering approach for melanoma detection from dermoscopic images, demonstrating improved performance over existing methods by mitigating class imbalance issues using a center-oriented margin-free triplet loss.

This review discusses the development and application of multiphoton microscopy in dermatology, highlighting its advantages and potential future research directions without reporting new clinical results.

In this study, patients with seasonal affective disorder were found to have increased functional connectivity in certain brain networks and higher low-frequency fluctuations compared to healthy controls, which aligns with their attentional and psychomotor symptoms.

This study utilized magnetic resonance imaging to noninvasively visualize and differentiate skin structures in rat skin, finding a significant correlation between MRI data and histological areas.

This article presents a computer imaging algorithm that may automate and enhance the Severity of Alopecia Tool scoring for alopecia areata through texture analysis of pediatric images.

This study reports that dynamic interactions between stem cells and their niche, influenced by macro-environmental factors, regulate regenerative behavior in integument pattern formation.

This study introduces a new multimodal imaging technology to visualize and quantify cell dynamics in natural skin over long durations, demonstrated in GFP bone marrow-transplanted mice, to study dynamic skin regeneration.

This study found that low doses of bisphenol A may increase proliferation of the ventral prostate in adult rats by altering the estrogen to androgen ratio and gene expression.

This paper introduces an algorithm for using smart device-mounted microscopes to analyze scalp images and diagnose hair loss by extracting specific hair loss features.

This study found that examining hair morphology provides deeper insights than classification, suggesting a potential population stratification artefact between hair curvature and cross-sectional shapes in the examined admixed African-European sample.

This study concluded that the GIANT brain atlas, which integrates genetic and neuroanatomical variations, provides a more accurate representation of brain structure than traditional neuroanatomical atlases, allowing for better exploration of genetic influences on the brain.

This study reports that Elvitegravir, a drug currently approved for other uses, shows potential as a neuro- and mitoprotective agent by attenuating mitochondrial damage caused by NMDA receptors in primary mouse cortical neurons.

In this study, researchers explored how hair follicle orientation is affected in the rosette fancy mouse and found that a mutation in the PCP gene Fzd6 caused reversed hair orientations in the posterior region, leading to the formation of unique whorls.

This study demonstrated that CD19-CAR T cell therapy may promote structural regeneration in the skin of systemic sclerosis patients, as evidenced by histological improvements and fibroblast population changes, suggesting its potential for tissue remodeling in fibrotic diseases.

This study developed a deep-learning model using unannotated dermatology images from online forums, achieving 49.64% accuracy in classifying 22 skin diseases and 61.76% accuracy in detecting monkeypox, highlighting the potential of these images for skin disease diagnostics in China.

This review examines advancements in deep learning methods for detecting dermatological conditions from dermoscopic images, summarizing available datasets and suggesting future research directions, but reports no new results.

This study found that children with cancer showed more deviation from typical facial morphology compared to healthy controls, although the differences were not enough to distinguish patients from controls based on facial asymmetry alone.

This study introduced a new high-throughput method for analyzing scalp hair morphology and found that quantifying hair form provides more accurate information than traditional classification based on racial categories, challenging the belief that cross-sectional morphology predicts hair curvature.

This study found that human skin melanocytes with low mutation burdens are smaller, less dendritic, and exhibit stem-like features, often residing in UV-protected hair follicles, suggesting their role in replenishing sun-damaged epidermis.

The researchers observed that in cichlid fishes with different dental structures, tooth replacement accelerated more than three times following tooth extraction, alongside distinct changes in gene expression and cellular interactions over one week, providing insights into tooth regeneration mechanisms in vertebrates.

This study demonstrates that an AI-based grading framework using a novel area ratio metric improves the accuracy and consistency of male pattern hair loss classification, especially in advanced grades, compared to traditional methods.

This study explored deep learning's potential in diagnosing scalp conditions like alopecia, psoriasis, and folliculitis, using a two-dimensional Convolutional Neural Network, achieving high accuracy and precision despite challenges of a small and uneven dataset.

In this study assessing post-menopausal Asian women, distinct shifts in Malassezia species prevalence on the skin were linked to increased inflammation and impaired skin barrier function, potentially driving disorders like psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis.

This study found that culturing fibroblasts on stiffer substrates mimicking fibrotic wounds led to an aligned EDA fibronectin matrix with thinner fibers and decreased YAP activity, suggesting disrupted signaling that might be restored to promote regenerative wound repair.

In this research, experienced clinicians noted inconsistency in the reproducibility of the commonly used Hamilton-Ludwig scales for assessing pattern hair loss severity in photographic assessments, leading to the proposal of a new 5-point scale for staging female hair loss.

In this nonrandomized controlled trial, tenon capsule injection of platelet-rich plasma improved capillary perfusion and may enhance short-term vision in patients with acute nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy.

This study found that back skin mesenchyme from mouse embryos can induce hair follicle formation even before dermal condensate formation, but R-spondin-1 alone or with a Bmp receptor inhibitor was not sufficient for hair follicle induction.
