This study developed a digital tool for quantitatively assessing hair in androgenetic alopecia, achieving an average accuracy of 79.45% for counting hairs and 68.19% for measuring hair size compared to human evaluation.

In this study, 92% of HIV-infected patients had mucocutaneous manifestations, with oral candidiasis being the most common condition observed.

This study found that metformin did not prevent gentamicin-induced hearing loss and even worsened auditory threshold shifts and caused adverse effects at higher doses in guinea pigs.

This study reports that sequential high- and low-dose prednisolone therapy effectively promotes complete hair regrowth in 62% of children with severe alopecia areata, while minimizing severe side effects.

This source suggests that migraine prevalence increases in transgender women using oestrogen and decreases in transgender men using testosterone, with high oral oestrogen doses in transgender women potentially linked to aura risk.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that human hair follicle outer root sheath cells release ATP, serotonin, and histamine in response to mechanical stimulation, which subsequently activates surrounding sensory neurons.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata were more likely to experience hearing loss compared to healthy individuals, potentially due to damage to follicular melanocytes involved in the autoimmune process.

In this retrospective study on pediatric craniospinal irradiation, researchers found that permanent radiation-induced alopecia occurred in 45.8% of patients, with higher radiation doses and treatment intensity being significant predictors, suggesting that defined dosimetric thresholds can support scalp-sparing planning.

This review synthesizes evidence on strategies to preserve donor aesthetics and reserve in follicular unit extraction, emphasizing conservative extraction limits and long-term planning to prevent donor site morbidity.

This tool was developed to enhance reproducibility and sensitivity in measuring partial hair regrowth in alopecia areata patients, particularly those undergoing JAK inhibitor therapy, using scalp photographs.

This review article highlights that obesity is a significant risk factor for several inflammatory skin conditions, such as psoriasis and atopic eczema, contributing to increased overall morbidity among those affected.

This study identified the TALE homeodomain transcription factor Meis2 as a crucial regulator for the maturation and end-organ innervation of certain mechanoreceptors in mice, with its absence leading to altered sensory neuron structure and impaired touch sensitivity.

This study found that low-level laser therapy (LLLT) may enhance hearing recovery after noise-induced hearing loss in rats.

This study found that inhibitory neurosteroids synthesized within glial cells can reduce seizure frequency in epileptic animals by enhancing inhibitory transmission via γ-aminobutyric acid receptors.

In this study, single fibrinogen/LDL apheresis showed a significant improvement in speech perception for patients with plasma fibrinogen concentrations over 295 mg/dL compared to standard treatment for sudden sensorineural hearing loss.

This study found that human C-tactile afferents respond to hair deflection, suggesting a functionally relevant anatomical relationship to hair follicles similar to that observed in mice.

This study observed that SARS-CoV-2 shedding significantly decreased after remdesivir treatment, irrespective of RT-PCR cycle threshold values, suggesting early de-isolation might be possible in severe COVID-19 cases.

This study reports that a hair shedding threshold of 100 hairs or more may provide the best concordance with clinical diagnosis for distinguishing chronic telogen effluvium from androgenetic alopecia.

This study suggests that simple absolute threshold monitoring rules for compliance using the biomarker DHT perform similarly to more complex methods in the Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial.

This study found that spinal strychnine enhances low threshold tactile responses in cat dorsal horn neurons, which may mirror pain states in humans that are less responsive to opioid treatments.

This study found that inositol hexaphosphate significantly reduced hearing threshold shifts and outer hair cell loss in various sensorineural hearing loss mouse models, suggesting potential for otoprotective use.

This study presents a two-photon imaging method to visualize low-threshold mechanoreceptor axon terminals in live mouse forepaw skin, enabling repeated high-resolution imaging to study sensory circuits during development and adulthood.

This study reported that optimized nanocrystalline CuAlO2 thin-film transistors exhibited a threshold voltage of −1.3 V and may contribute to advancements in low-cost complementary metal oxide semiconductor logic circuits.

This study found that GFRα2 influences cell size but not survival or target innervation of Ret-positive low-threshold mechanoreceptors in mouse dorsal root ganglia, differing from its role in nonpeptidergic nociceptors.

This article discusses the implications of finasteride on serum PSA levels and questions the routine recommendation for prostate biopsy at specific PSA thresholds, urging reevaluation of prostate cancer detection methods; it reports no clinical results.

This study observed that acute stress in rats increased neurosteroid levels linked to enhanced GABA(A) receptor function, raising seizure thresholds, while similar effects were seen in mice with deoxycorticosterone administration.

This study determined that an mFG score of 5 or greater defines hirsutism among Southern Chinese women, with prevalence and score thresholds decreasing with age.

This study showed that in C3H/HeJ mice, focal follicular inflammation starts before overt hair loss, with inflammation severity possibly reaching a threshold causing hair follicle dystrophy prior to visible hair loss.

This study found that while glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists report more incidents of suicide, hair loss, and aspiration compared to some other antidiabetic drugs, they did not meet the threshold for positive safety signals.

This study found that serum AMH and new ultrasonographic criteria, such as FNPO ≥15 and OV ≥ 6.5 mL, effectively diagnosed PCOS, with a recommended AMH threshold of 4.7 ng/mL.
