Finasteride for hair loss may increase the risk of certain cancers and has side effects; better regulation and education on its use are needed.
research British Society for Dermatopathology
Dermatologists give better information on pathology forms, hypersensitivity vasculitis is a common skin issue, misdiagnoses can occur, and various skin conditions are linked to loss of elastin or genetic factors.
research Risk factors for prostate cancer: a case-control study investigating selected key exposures and their interactions with predisposition genes
Age, race, family history, and certain genetic factors increase prostate cancer risk.
research 20th Annual Symposium of the British Society of Paediatric Dermatology, 11-12 November 2005, Newcastle upon Tyne, U.K.
The document reports unique growth lines in a child after Stevens-Johnson syndrome, skin reaction from parsnips and sun in a girl, and itchy skin with xanthomas in a boy with Alagille syndrome.
research Laser-assisted hair transplantation: histologic comparison between holmium:YAG and CO2 lasers
The CO₂ laser is better for hair transplantation because it causes less damage than the Ho:YAG laser.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research The Mesenchymal Niche of the Hair Follicle Induces Regeneration by Releasing Primed Progenitors from Inhibitory Effects of Quiescent Stem Cells
The study found that a specific area of the hair follicle helps start hair growth by reducing the blocking effects on certain cells and controlling growth signals.
research Overview of common, rare and atypical manifestations of cutaneous lupus erythematosus and histopathological correlates
The document concludes that recognizing and treating cutaneous lupus erythematosus early is crucial for managing the skin and potential systemic symptoms.
research No Association between Serum Ferritin Levels >10 μg/l and Hair Loss Activity in Women

Hair follicle stem cells help burns heal faster and stronger.
research Identification of the causative dermatophyte of tinea capitis in children attending Mbarara Regional Referral Hospital in Uganda by PCR-ELISA and comparison with conventional mycological diagnostic methods
PCR-ELISA is better for identifying the fungus causing scalp infections in Ugandan children than traditional methods.
research Investigation by Imaging Mass Spectrometry of Biomarker Candidates for Aging in the Hair Cortex
Certain molecules in hair change with age and could be used for cosmetic treatments.
research Histologic progression of acne inversa/hidradenitis suppurativa: Implications for future investigations and therapeutic intervention
Acne inversa is an epithelial-driven disease where inflammation is caused by cyst rupture, and treatments should focus on preventing tendril growth for better results.
research Effect of Ultraviolet Radiation, Smoking and Nutrition on Hair
Ultraviolet rays damage hair, smoking may cause hair loss, and good nutrition is important for hair health, but genetics mainly decide hair thickness.
research Basic mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 infection. What endocrine systems could be implicated?
SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, can affect all endocrine organs and systems, altering their function and potentially leading to disorders. Factors like diabetes and obesity increase infection risk and severity. Understanding these effects is key for effective treatment.
