This article provides guidelines and indices for a three-point cantilever bending test to measure mechanical properties of hair treated with both conventional and naturally-derived styling polymers, reporting no new experimental results.

This study presents additional data suggesting that the absence of nerve endings in certain segments of human hair follicles influences the asymmetrical distribution of electrical charges, as indicated by no precipitation of Potassium Ferricyanide crystals.

This study observed that patients with new-onset mild alopecia areata had significantly higher levels of oxidative stress markers compared to healthy controls, suggesting their antioxidant defenses may be insufficient to balance the elevated oxidant levels.

This study found that isoliensinine, a natural compound identified from a database, effectively prevented stress-induced hair greying in mice by blocking β-2 adrenergic receptors on melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles.

This research describes methods to analyze the mechanical properties and fracture characteristics of hair across different types and ages, using specialized tensile testing and imaging techniques, without reporting new results.

This report presents a case of alopecia areata manifesting in a linear pattern, deviating from the typical presentation of sharply demarcated round patches.

This abstract provides contact information for Dr. Ban Kamoona at the Medical University – Sofia and contains no research findings.

This review discusses common hair disorders seen in primary care, including male pattern baldness and fungal infections, but reports no new clinical findings.

This article reviews uncombable hair syndrome, highlighting its symptoms, potential diagnosis methods, and the suggestion for biotin supplements, but it reports no new empirical results.

This study highlights the link between stress-induced hair loss and stress levels among university students, emphasizing the need to address stress to support their wellbeing and academic achievement.

This article describes a case of localized trichorrhexis nodosa in a patient with otherwise normal hair, highlighting the condition's response to trauma and diagnostic process but reporting no new clinical findings.

This study used quantitative methods to identify new geometric and mechanical parameters of curly and kinky/coily hair, aiming to improve classification and develop better personal care products for these hair types.

This study observed unique ultrastructural changes in a 4-year-old girl with pili trianguli et canaliculi that may affect hair shaft surface characteristics due to inner root sheath alterations.

This article discusses the complexity of vulvodynia and highlights the potential effectiveness of Fascial Manipulation therapy in addressing this condition, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study discovered a new region in the hair cortex where intermediate filaments are both aligned with the hair's axis and orientationally ordered, influenced by the cuticle boundary.

This study suggests that mechanical tension significantly impacts lymphocyte function, and that a complete lymphocyte population is essential for effective wound healing and reducing inflammation.

This study found that keratin intermediate filaments in the hair of GAN patients are altered, showing decreased diffraction signals and increased stiffness, strength, and extensibility.

Reducing CD8+ T cell growth can stabilize alopecia areata.

In this study, wound closure tension following strip surgery for hair restoration varied by strip width, highlighting the importance of minimizing tension to achieve better scarring outcomes.

This study observed that COVID-19-related stress and fear were potentially associated with an increased occurrence of hair diseases like telogen effluvium, alopecia areata, and seborrheic dermatitis among medical students in Bangladesh.

Surgery to fix a broken upper arm bone can sometimes lead to nerve damage.

This study systematically characterized the nanomechanical properties of human hair, such as hardness and elastic modulus, across different ethnicities and treatment conditions using nanoindentation and scanning electron microscopy.

This study found that minimally invasive combined fascia sheath suspension improved eyelid symmetry in patients with unilateral ptosis, particularly in measures of marginal reflex distance and eyelid contour.

This study found that hair follicle stem cells from hidradenitis suppurativa patients showed alterations in cell cycle regulation and DNA replication, potentially linking genetic predisposition to the skin inflammation characteristic of the disease.

This study found that epidermolysis bullosa simplex keratinocytes had impaired mitochondrial activity and more dispersed mitochondrial distribution compared to normal human keratinocytes.

This study observed that human hair macrofibrils predominantly exhibit a double-twist architecture with varying inter-macrofibril angles, advancing insights into their structural organization and mechanical implications.

This study observed that patients with alopecia areata had higher psychological distress levels and distinct neurotrophin serum levels compared to healthy controls, suggesting a relationship between psychological factors and neurotrophins in the disease's pathology.

In this study, researchers discovered a honeycomb-like structure in the skin of spiny mice that facilitates tissue shedding and regeneration, attributed to a uniquely arranged collagen VI and influenced by spiny hair development.

Alopecia areata may involve stress-related changes affecting hormone receptors, leading to reduced cortisol production.
