Minoxidil, when used with a diuretic and β-blocking agent, can safely lower blood pressure in most children with severe hypertension due to kidney disease, with minimal side effects.

This study found that Gelidium corneum, a type of red seaweed, may serve as a promising source of bioactive compounds for skin health, showing photoprotective and healing properties in vitro and antioxidant and stability benefits in vivo when used in dermocosmetic formulations.

This study found that commercially available dyes penetrate up to 1.2 mm into human skin, with Indocyanine Green binding to cell proteins and showing a shift in absorption peak.

This study found that mice lacking alkaline ceramidase 1 with elevated skin ceramide levels showed disrupted skin homeostasis, including altered hair follicle structures, increased water loss, and a hypermetabolism phenotype.

This review discusses how menopause affects skin structure and function, finding associations between menopause and common skin conditions, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers found that moisturizers like Alhydran and DermaCress provided superior hydration and occlusion compared to silicone gel, suggesting these moisturizers may be a patient-friendly and cost-effective alternative for scar management.

This study found that training in a hypoxic chamber did not significantly impact skin features in overweight and obese women, though it did result in a notable reduction in body weight and BMI.

This study evaluated hair tonic and gel formulations containing Angiopteris evecta root water extract and found both fulfilled pharmaceutical preparation standards, with the 12.5% hair tonic and 10.0% gel concentrations most effective for hair growth without a significant difference in performance.

This study found that a bio-based repair solution containing hydrolysed wool keratin, serine, and transglutaminase improved the physical and chemical properties of damaged hair, increasing its strength, flexibility, and thermal stability while offering long-lasting protection against chemical damage.

This review explains that linoleic acid deficiency can lead to skin and growth issues but notes that such deficiencies are rare in well-nourished Western populations; it reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, ethosomes were found to improve the skin penetration of a model lipophilic drug more effectively than liposomes or hydroethanolic solutions, suggesting a unique mechanism involving the breakdown of vesicles in the skin.

In this study, knockout mice lacking the Cyp4f39 gene showed severe skin barrier dysfunction and high early mortality, suggesting its critical role in skin barrier formation and insights into ichthyosis pathogenesis.

This study found that using a hair dryer at 15 cm with continuous motion causes less surface damage to hair compared to natural drying, although higher temperatures increased overall surface damage.

In this study, epidermal growth factor (EGF) was shown to increase the length of rat organ of Corti segments containing supernumerary hair cells, with the effect peaking at birth and independent of cell division.

This study found that the acyl-CoA binding protein is essential for the production of very long chain free fatty acids in the stratum corneum and maintaining normal epidermal barrier function in mice.

Hair removal methods damage the skin barrier and affect substance penetration.

This study found that a 12-week regimen of a botanical supplement significantly improved skin and scalp health in women exposed to high pollution, enhancing factors like skin radiance, moisturization, and reducing wrinkle depth and scalp redness compared to a placebo.

This study examines various methodological factors affecting hair cortisol concentration analysis, finding inconsistent results on the impact of factors like resuspension solution, hair weight, extraction duration, and hair-cutting method.

This study showed that vitamin D receptor gene-deficient rats exhibit hair loss and skin abnormalities due to differences in gene and protein expression patterns, while ligand-independent VDR action is crucial for normal hair cycle maintenance and skin formation.

This review discusses the connection between acne and metabolic syndrome, noting shared pathogenic mechanisms and suggesting integrated management strategies without presenting new clinical results.

In this study, APC collagen peptides were observed to enhance hair elasticity and gloss in human hair follicles by increasing amino acid and lipid component levels, suggesting their potential benefits for improving hair qualities.

This study reported that topical ω‐0‐acylceramide improved skin barrier function in Jack Russell Terriers with TGM1-deficient autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis, normalizing skin pH and reducing transepidermal water loss.

In this study, researchers found that negative pressure fractional microneedle radiofrequency significantly improved periorbital wrinkles, hydration, and dermal thickness in patients with periorbital aging, while also increasing orderly collagen and elastic fibers, with minimal adverse effects reported.

This article reviews common dermatologic conditions seen in primary care, such as acne and skin cancer, but reports no new findings.

This case report describes a 56-year-old male with chronic watery diarrhea, hyperpigmentation, and alopecia, in whom colonoscopy revealed multiple polypoidal lesions from the distal transverse colon to the rectum.

This study found that hemodialysis patients taking water-soluble vitamins had a 16% lower mortality risk compared to those not taking any, but the specific supplementation needed remains unclear.

This study observed that eliminating positional error in hair segment analysis can improve understanding of changes in isotopic composition, aiding the identification of pathological conditions and dietary patterns.

This study found that a eupafolin nanoparticle delivery system improved water solubility and skin penetration, enhancing its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects against particulate matter-induced stress in skin cells.

Diuretics help the body get rid of excess salt and water by acting on the kidneys in different ways.

This case report describes a woman whose initial presentation of SLE was persistent watery diarrhea, diagnosed as lymphocytic enterocolitis, and shows that immunosuppressive therapy resulted in symptom relief.
