This study found no significant differences in hair growth between two formulas of hair tonic from meniran extract, one with a menthol enhancer, despite variations in hair length and weight measurements.

In a laboratory study on guinea pigs, Kepok banana peel extract serum at a 30% concentration showed promising effectiveness for hair growth, with results close to those of 5% minoxidil®, suggesting it could be a viable hair care alternative.

In this case study, a 62-year-old woman with severe hyperandrogenism underwent a clomiphene test, which suggested an ovarian origin for her condition, leading to the discovery of a Leydig cell tumor after a bilateral oophorectomy.

This study found that a mixture of 80% coconut oil and 20% candlenut oil effectively stimulated hair development in Wistar rats, which may be attributed to the high lauric acid content in coconut oil.

This review suggests that finasteride is well-tolerated and potentially more effective than other treatments for hirsutism, with results confirmed by other studies.

In this study, a plasma-fluorescent corticoid test effectively differentiated patients with adrenal insufficiency from those with normal adrenal function based on their response to corticotropin.

In this study, it was found that higher test anxiety negatively correlated with lower OSCE performance among medical students at Taif Medical College, with female students experiencing a greater impact than males.

This source reports that two noninvasive tests, the pull test and a modified wash test, can help diagnose and determine the severity of different types of hair loss in women by assessing hair shedding and characteristics, offering a simple and cost-effective evaluation method.

This study optimized and validated a dissolution test method for immediate-release finasteride capsules, highlighting the need for an official standard due to variability in commercial products.

This study found that finasteride does not increase the risk of high-grade prostate cancer but instead improves the prostate-specific antigen test's sensitivity to detect such cancers.

In this study, researchers observed that atopic dermatitis may alter the appearance of allergic patch test reactions, demonstrating specific patterns like perifollicular erythema and yellowish areas that could aid in interpreting patch tests using dermoscopy, particularly in ambiguous cases.

This study found that Mueller-Hinton Agar performed better than Dermasel Agar for antifungal susceptibility testing of feline dermatophytes, providing reliable susceptibility data for effective antifungal therapy.

This study found that HairTime, a novel non-invasive assay using hair samples, accurately estimates chronotype and reveals its plasticity influenced by work schedules and lifestyle factors.

In this study, high-dose oral administration of Ramania leaf ethanol extract in Wistar rats resulted in no significant acute toxicity symptoms, though gastric ulcers and hair loss were observed. The extract is classified as non-toxic under specified guidelines, with an LD50 greater than 5000 mg/kg.

This abstract provides information on potential conflicts of interest and acknowledges sources of support for the findings, but does not report specific study results.

This study evaluated the effects of candlenut oil, olive oil, and their combination on hair growth in male rabbits, finding that candlenut oil led to the greatest hair length increase compared to olive oil or the combination, which also showed significant effects.

In this study, the combination of binahong leaf and lemongrass extracts was found to effectively inhibit the growth of the dandruff-causing fungus Pityrosporum ovale, with the strongest fungal growth inhibition observed at a 50% concentration of each extract.

In this research on cinnamon and virgin coconut oil hair tonics, F2 and F3 demonstrated stable physical properties and mild irritation potential, while formula 1 remained non-irritating but less stable regarding pH and viscosity.

This review discusses the importance of physical examinations in trichology, emphasizing their role in diagnosing conditions like alopecia and hair dystrophies, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that aloe vera peel extract gel at concentrations of 5%, 10%, and 15% can accelerate the drying of minor burns in rabbits.

In this study, 25% of CCHCR1-deficient mice exposed to stress developed hair loss similar to human alopecia areata, suggesting CCHCR1 is a susceptibility gene for the disease.

This case report suggests that the progestogen-only pill may cause false-positive aldosterone/renin ratio results in primary hyperaldosteronism screening, indicating it should be omitted before testing.

This study aimed to identify possible associations between a hair pull test and various pathological, biochemical, and hematological parameters in Czech patients with different types of alopecia.

In this study, dementia caregivers showed lower hair cortisol levels than controls despite reporting higher perceived stress, providing weak support for the Perseverative Cognition Hypothesis and suggesting complex effects of caregiving stress.

This study found that a green tea extract gel was stable across various temperatures, did not cause eye irritation, and significantly increased eyelash growth compared to a placebo after two months of use in human volunteers.

This chapter describes two simple, noninvasive methods — the pull test and modified wash test — which can diagnose and assess the severity of female hair loss, including conditions like telogen effluvium and androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that hair cosmetics have strong bacteriostatic properties, suggesting that current microbial test methods for these products should be revised.

This study on rats found that adrenalectomy was associated with increased hair loss compared to sham adrenalectomy, where one adrenal was left intact.

This study found that the ethanol patch test effectively indicates the ALDH phenotype in healthy Japanese individuals, suggesting its usefulness for future research.
