New nanocomposites with copper show promise for healing burn wounds and regenerating skin.
research Light scattering from human hair fibers
Researchers developed a new model for more realistic computer graphics of hair by considering how light scatters on hair fibers.
research Analysis of the human diseasome using phenotype similarity between common, genetic and infectious diseases
The study found that diseases can be grouped by symptoms and that the accuracy of predicting disease-related genes varies with the data source.
research Alopecia Areata Update
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition often starting before age 20, with varied treatment success and a need for personalized treatment plans.
research Circadian clocks: from stem cells to tissue homeostasis and regeneration
Circadian rhythms are crucial for stem cell function and tissue repair, and understanding them may improve aging and regeneration treatments.
research Are the cutaneous manifestations during or due to SARS-CoV-2 infection/COVID-19 frequent or not? Revision of possible pathophysiologic mechanisms
Skin problems in COVID-19 patients are rare and may be due to the body's complex immune response or blood clotting issues.
research Quality of Life, Burden of Disease, Co-morbidities, and Systemic Effects in Vitiligo Patients
Vitiligo affects overall health and self-esteem, needing more research and awareness.
research The logic of follicular unit transplantation
The document concludes that follicular unit transplantation offers more natural results and better graft survival than older hair transplant methods.
research Alopecia: evaluation and treatment
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and FDA-approved treatments for different types of hair loss exist, but treatments for severe cases often fail and future improvements may focus on hair follicle stem cells.
research Steroid 5α-Reductase as a Novel Therapeutic Target for Schizophrenia and Other Neuropsychiatric Disorders
S5αR inhibitors might help treat schizophrenia and other mental disorders but need more research.
research Potential adverse effects of long-term testosterone therapy
Long-term testosterone therapy can cause hormone suppression, affect prostate and heart health, and alter physical characteristics, but does not increase prostate cancer risk and needs more research for full risk assessment.
research Alopecia Areata: Evidence-Based Treatments

research Vitiligo
Vitiligo causes white skin patches and is linked to autoimmune issues.
research Traction alopecia: the root of the problem
Tight hairstyles and chemical relaxers can cause hair loss known as traction alopecia.
research What should it take to describe a substance or product as 'sperm-safe'
Products should be called 'sperm-safe' only after thorough, well-designed tests.
research Medical applications of tattooing
Tattooing helps treat skin conditions, reconstruct nipple-areola, mark radiation fields, and locate lesions.
research Intravital imaging of hair follicle regeneration in the mouse
Two-photon microscopy helps observe hair follicle stem cell behaviors in mice.
research Overactivated sonic hedgehog signaling aggravates intrauterine adhesion via inhibiting autophagy in endometrial stromal cells
Overactive sonic hedgehog signaling worsens uterine scarring by reducing cell recycling.
