research Predicting hair cortisol levels with hair pigmentation genes: a possible hair pigmentation bias
Darker hair may lead to higher cortisol readings, suggesting a need to adjust for hair color in studies.
research Scalp hair cortisol concentration in patients with alopecia areata and correlate its level with the disease variables
Higher stress levels may worsen alopecia areata, suggesting stress management is important for treatment.
research Effect of Testosterone Supplementation With and Without a Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor on Fat-Free Mass in Men With Suppressed Testosterone Production
Testosterone's muscle-building effects do not require its conversion to DHT.
research In vitro methodology, hormonal and nutritional effects and fibre production in isolated ovine and caprine anagen hair follicles
Angora goat hair grows faster and produces more protein than cashmere goat hair, and certain hormones and nutrients positively affect hair growth and protein synthesis.
research Measurement of cortisol in human Hair as a biomarker of systemic exposure
Hair cortisol can be used to measure long-term stress exposure.
research Stress-related skin disorders
Stress can worsen skin conditions by affecting hormone levels and immune response.
research Is dehydroepiandrosterone a hormone?
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.
research Complications of Cushing's syndrome: state of the art
Cushing's syndrome can cause serious health problems, and early treatment is crucial, but some issues may remain after treatment.
research Hair cortisol analysis: An update on methodological considerations and clinical applications
Hair cortisol analysis can help diagnose stress-related conditions but needs more refinement for widespread use.
research Quantifying long-term stress in brown bears with the hair cortisol concentration: a biomarker that may be confounded by rapid changes in response to capture and handling
Hair cortisol levels in brown bears can be affected by both long-term and short-term stress.
research Modulation of glucocorticoid action and the treatment of type-2 diabetes
Targeting glucocorticoid action might help treat type-2 diabetes, but human trials are needed.
research A randomized placebo-controlled study on the effects of pioglitazone on cortisol metabolism in polycystic ovary syndrome
Pioglitazone improved insulin sensitivity and altered cortisol metabolism in PCOS patients.
research Methodological Challenges and Clinical Applications of Hair Cortisol Analysis
Hair cortisol analysis shows sweat affects cortisol levels, and severe OSA may increase stress, but CPAP treatment doesn't significantly reduce physiological stress.
research Are hair cortisol levels dependent on hair growth rate? A pilot study in rhesus macaques
Monkey hair cortisol levels are not affected by how fast their hair grows.
research Treatment of Hirsutism With Spironolactone
Spironolactone is a safe and effective treatment for reducing excessive hair growth in women.
research MENSTRUAL DISORDERS IN ADOLESCENTS
The document concludes that early recognition and treatment of PCOS in adolescents is crucial for managing symptoms and long-term health risks.
research Peripheral Skin Temperature and Circadian Biological Clock in Shift Nurses after a Day off
Shift nurses show altered body temperature and stress hormone levels, suggesting their body clocks adjust to irregular schedules.
research Primary Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance and Hypersensitivity
The conclusion is that genetic changes in the glucocorticoid receptor can lead to conditions affecting stress response, immunity, and metabolism, requiring personalized treatment.
research Determination of cortisone and cortisol in human scalp hair using an improved LC-MS/MS-based method
Cortisone in hair is a more reliable indicator of stress hormone exposure than cortisol.
research Urinary steroids in men with male-pattern alopecia
Men with male-pattern baldness have higher levels of certain testosterone metabolites and may have more active androgen metabolism.
research Measurement of cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone, and testosterone in the hair of children: Preliminary results and promising indications
Hair can effectively measure DHEA and testosterone levels in children.
research The local hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis in cultured human dermal papilla cells
Stress hormone CRF can cause hair loss by affecting hair growth cells and hormones.
research Understanding Causes of Hair Loss in Women
The conclusion is that hair loss in women is caused by a mix of hormonal, environmental, and genetic factors, and treatments should target these various causes.
research The prescribing cascade 3.0: a case for recreational drugs in HIV
Recreational drug use can cause misdiagnosed conditions and drug interactions in HIV patients.

research 260 Establishment and characterization of human sebocytic progenitor cells that can differentiate into functional sebocytes
Researchers created human cells that can turn into sebocytes, which may help study and treat skin conditions like acne.
research Human Hair as a Testing Substrate in the Era of Precision Medicine: Potential Role of ‘Omics-Based Approaches
Human hair shows promise for non-invasive medical testing, but more research is needed to standardize its use.
research The use of hair cortisol for the assessment of stress in animals
Hair cortisol is a reliable way to measure long-term stress in animals.
research Determinants of hair cortisol and hair cortisone concentrations in adults
Hair cortisol and cortisone levels increase with age, are higher in diabetics, vary by gender, decrease with frequent hair washing, and are lower in winter.
