This study found high levels of toxic heavy metals in water sources of mining communities in Abakaliki, Nigeria, posing potential health risks including Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases.

This study observed that both intradermotherapy with 5% minoxidil and topical minoxidil application resulted in perceived improvements in hair density and thickness among patients with androgenetic alopecia, with no significant difference between the two groups.

This review discusses current topical treatments, natural products, and complementary therapies for androgenetic alopecia, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study reports that zinc oxide or silver nanoparticles capped with vitamin A or E, incorporated into wheat gluten films, showed significant potential in promoting burn wound healing in mice by facilitating wound contraction, re-epithelialization, and collagen deposition, while also exhibiting antioxidant and antibacterial properties.

This study found that zinc treatment in alopecia areata patients may increase CD8+ cells, suggesting its effectiveness could be due to immunomodulation.

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.

In this study, Pilopeptan® Intensive, a nutritional supplement containing hydrolyzed collagen, Group B vitamins, and zinc, was found to significantly improve hair parameters in telogen effluvium patients, with sustained benefits observed posttreatment, although mild side effects were reported by some participants.

This study developed a novel zinc-releasing hydrogel, Zn-Gel, which promoted wound healing by controlling zinc ion release and demonstrated excellent compatibility and efficacy in enhancing cell proliferation, blood vessel formation, and tissue regeneration in vitro and in vivo settings.

This study reported that alcoholic cirrhosis patients with zinc deficiency and skin lesions showed rapid symptom improvement with oral zinc sulfate treatment, confirming the diagnosis.

This study suggests that a sandwich-structured wound dressing with bioceramic and polylactic acid layers may improve burn wound healing by absorbing exudates and promoting hair follicle regeneration.

In a study on diabetic mice, researchers developed a protein-based hydrogel that leverages zinc ions and the natural compound phellopterin to promote cutaneous nerve regeneration, angiogenesis, and tissue remodeling in diabetic wounds, highlighting its potential for advanced wound therapy.

This study found that certain off-label topical therapies, including prostaglandin analogs and polyphenols, improved hair restoration in men with androgenetic alopecia over placebo in the short term, though long-term effects are unknown.

This review discusses the use of zinc supplementation in dermatology for various skin conditions and reports no new clinical results, providing references for its application.

This review discusses the role of zinc and its transporters in skin health and disorders, providing an overview without presenting new clinical results.

In this study, researchers developed a novel zinc oxide nanoflower-infused nanocomposite that demonstrated promising results in accelerating wound healing in a murine model, with enhanced angiogenesis, reduced inflammation, and improved collagen deposition compared to a control group.

In this study, a new leave-on hair treatment with Dynagen and zinc salts significantly increased hair growth rate, fibre diameter, and follicle strength in healthy women.

This study found no significant difference in serum and hair levels of iron, zinc, and copper between female alopecia areata patients and healthy controls.

This study found that tea polyphenol–zinc significantly improved intestinal barrier function and reduced liver inflammation and oxidative stress in mice with diquat-induced damage.

This review discusses the effects of visible light on human skin, highlighting its role in pigmentation, thermal damage, and the treatment of several skin conditions, while noting limited sunscreen protection against it; no new clinical results are reported.

This article reviews various causes of diffuse hair loss, highlighting the importance of identifying triggers through thorough examination for effective treatment and emphasizing patient education in management; it reports no new clinical findings.

This article addresses the need to screen for nutrient deficiencies in patients with hair loss but reports no new findings, noting that supplementation without deficiency may not be beneficial and could pose risks.

Created material boosts hair growth and kills bacteria for wound healing.

This study found that nanoparticles did not permeate intact rat skin but could penetrate skin that had been artificially punctured, primarily through grooves or hair follicles.

This review found that patients with alopecia areata may have lower levels of vitamin D, zinc, and folate, but conflicting evidence precludes definitive clinical recommendations for micronutrient supplementation.

This review discusses the challenges and contradictions in understanding nanoparticle penetration and toxicity in human skin, emphasizing the need for standardized testing and further research on particles smaller than 10 nm.

This article discusses the foundational concepts of nanotechnology and its contributions to dermatology and medicine, but does not present new research findings.

This study proposes a new method to selectively isolate keratin-associated proteins and keratin from human hair, suggesting that KAPs may support keratin fibers in hair structure.

This review covers dermatological conditions experienced by ice-skating athletes due to cold exposure, infections, and inflammation, providing no new clinical findings and emphasizing diagnosis and treatment strategies.

This review suggests that oral prednisolone pulse therapy and oral inosiplex may be effective for alopecia areata, but robust evidence from randomized controlled trials is lacking, highlighting the need for better-designed future studies.

This review examines complementary and alternative medicine for alopecia and finds limited support from robust clinical trials, highlighting the need for standardized studies to evaluate efficacy and safety.
