Green tea component EGCG may help prevent hair loss by changing microRNA levels in certain scalp cells.
research The immune response to COVID ‐19: Does sex matter?
Men and women get COVID-19 at similar rates, but men tend to get sicker and have a higher risk of dying, while women usually have stronger immune responses and vaccine reactions.
research In vivo response of GsdmA3Dfl/+ mice to topically applied anti-psoriatic agents: effects on epidermal thickness, as determined by optical coherence tomography and H&E staining
Betamethasone dipropionate reduced skin thickness, fish oil increased it, and combined treatment had no significant effect.
