This study reviewed chitosan composites, specifically those with silver or zinc oxide nanoparticles, highlighting their enhanced antimicrobial efficacy and potential biomedical applications despite pure chitosan's limitations such as pH sensitivity and poor solubility.

This study found that children with repetitive respiratory tract infections had significantly lower levels of the trace elements zinc, iron, and copper in their hair compared to healthy children.

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 found that the superior growth and higher zinc uptake of wild-type barley compared to its root-hairless mutant in zinc-deficient soil is mainly due to greater root surface area from root hairs.

This study found that living environment significantly influenced Fe concentrations in dog and cat hair, with outdoor animals showing higher levels than those kept indoors.

This study evaluated a new composite material made from PLA, ALG, ZnS, and HT for blood-contacting applications, finding it improved surface characteristics and displayed anticoagulant properties and high biocompatibility with no genotoxic effects on blood and skin cells.

This study found that unilateral neutron irradiation in pigs significantly decreased the uptake of radioactive zinc in blood, impaired growth, and led to decreased organ weights and hair pigmentation changes on the irradiated side.

This study found that autistic children had significantly lower iron levels and higher selenium levels in their hair compared to healthy peers, with variations observed between autistic boys and girls.

This review discusses the nutritional causes of dermatologic diseases in small animals and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and treating these conditions in veterinary practice.

This review suggests that deficiencies in specific vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin A and zinc, may influence the risk of hair loss, though more research is needed to confirm this link.

This study found that among female patients with acute telogen effluvium, 83.7% reported either partial or complete resolution of hair shedding after three months of treatment including vitamin E and zinc supplements.

A balanced diet with key nutrients and possible supplements can help manage post-COVID-19 symptoms.

This study analyzed the nutritional composition of 75 nutricosmetic products, finding common ingredients like biotin and zinc, but emphasized the need for further research on their effectiveness for hair and nail health.

This review updated the evidence on various treatments for alopecia areata, finding that minoxidil and high potency corticosteroids showed significant results in patchy AA, but the overall evidence quality was low.

This study identified a missense mutation in the human hairless gene associated with a rare form of recessively inherited alopecia universalis, pinpointed on chromosome 8p12.

This review explores the role of nutritional factors in hair loss, noting that iron and l-lysine supplementation may benefit some individuals, while excessive supplements can lead to hair shedding.

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 study found that the loss of a functional hr gene in mice leads to premature and abnormal hair follicle regression, disrupting normal hair cycling and architecture.

This study found that adults with sickle cell anemia exhibited androgen deficiency due to primary testicular failure, and there was a significant correlation between erythrocyte zinc levels and serum testosterone.

This review examines nutritional deficiencies after bariatric surgery, particularly in essential minerals like zinc and copper, and highlights the need for more research to improve post-surgery nutritional outcomes.

This review discusses the potential role of vitamins and minerals in managing non-scarring alopecia but reports no clinical results; the authors advocate for further controlled trials to explore these relationships.

This review outlines the diagnosis and management of folliculitis decalvans, an inflammatory scalp disorder, and highlights Staphylococcus aureus and immune response deficiencies as key factors in its development.

This review discusses recent advancements in nanotechnology-based treatments for chronic wound healing in diabetic models, noting that despite promising results, these innovations have yet to translate into widely available commercial products.

This study suggests that basonuclin in keratinocytes is likely a regulatory molecule linked to maintaining proliferative capacity and preventing terminal differentiation rather than a cell cycle marker.

This review discusses the role of nutraceuticals in combating skin aging but reports no new clinical results, focusing on their mechanisms of action and potential effectiveness for dermatologists.

This review discusses advances in nanomaterial-based wound dressings for infection control, highlighting their ability to detect and treat bacterial infections effectively, but reports no new clinical results.
