research Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy as a Tool for the Investigation of Skin Drug Delivery Systems and Diagnosis of Skin Disorders
Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) is a useful tool for studying how drugs interact with skin and diagnosing skin disorders, despite some limitations.
research Can you diagnose hair loss (Non-scarring alopecia)
Non-scarring hair loss can be diagnosed with two 4mm punch biopsies, one cut vertically and the other transversely.
research A fast liquid chromatographic/mass spectrometric screening method for the simultaneous detection of synthetic glucocorticoids, some stimulants, anti‐oestrogen drugs and synthetic anabolic steroids

research WNT10A Mutations Are a Frequent Cause of a Broad Spectrum of Ectodermal Dysplasias with Sex-Biased Manifestation Pattern in Heterozygotes
WNT10A mutations often cause ectodermal dysplasias, with males showing more tooth issues than females.
research A genome-wide association scan in admixed Latin Americans identifies loci influencing facial and scalp hair features
Genetic factors influence hair traits like shape, color, and greying in Latin Americans.
research Demodicosis and rosacea: Epidemiology and significance in daily dermatologic practice
Demodicosis is common and often missed, needing more recognition and treatment in skin care.
research Adverse cutaneous reactions to soft tissue fillers – a review of the histological features
Different soft tissue fillers can cause various skin reactions; biodegradable fillers are safer and non-biodegradable ones like silicone can lead to long-term problems.
research The Keratins of the Human Beard Hair Medulla: The Riddle in the Middle
Human beard hair medulla contains a unique and complex mix of keratins not found in other human tissues.
research Ubiquity and Diversity of Human-Associated Demodex Mites
All adults have Demodex mites, which vary by region.
research Analysis of sequential hair segments reflects changes in the metabolome across the trimesters of pregnancy
Hair analysis can reveal metabolic changes and potential pregnancy complications.
research Beyond goosebumps: Does the arrector pili muscle have a role in hair loss?
The arrector pili muscle might play a role in hair loss and needs more research to understand its impact.
research Variation in human hair ultrastructure among three biogeographic populations
Different populations have distinct hair structures related to their ancestry.
research Aging in the Male Face: Intrinsic and Extrinsic Factors
Male faces age with more wrinkles and hair loss, influenced by both body changes and environmental factors.
research Size Polymorphisms in the Human Ultrahigh Sulfur Hair Keratin-Associated Protein 4, KAP4, Gene Family
The study found that variations in hair protein genes are likely due to evolutionary deletions or duplications.
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 Multifunctional Merkel cells: Their roles in electromagnetic reception, finger-print formation, Reiki, epigenetic inheritance and hair form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research Effects of dihydrotestosterone on rat dermal papilla cells in vitro
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) doesn't affect rat skin cell growth, but it does change cell cycle, protein levels, and other cell functions, potentially shortening hair growth cycle.
research Stable C and N isotope analysis of hair suggest undernourishment as a factor in the death of a mummified girl from late 19th century San Francisco, CA
The mummified girl likely died from undernourishment and illness.
research Signs of physical abuse and neglect in the mature patient
Elderly abuse is often by family members, and doctors, especially dermatologists, can spot it by looking for unusual injuries and malnutrition.
research Bilateral Eyelid Pseudoptosis From Lipogranulomas of the Preaponeurotic Fat Pads
Surgical removal of abnormal fat pads fixed the woman's eyelid issue caused by likely silicone injections.
research Heat‐damaged evaluation of virgin hair
Heat damages hair, with Asian hair losing more protein than Caucasian hair.
research Hair follicle characteristics as early marker of Type 2 Diabetes
Hair characteristics might be early signs of Type 2 Diabetes and could help with early prevention.
research Testosterone-like immunoreactivity in hair measured in minute sample amounts - a competitive radioimmunoassay with an adequate limit of detection
The new test can measure very small amounts of testosterone in hair, and grinding the hair up first gives more accurate results.
research Avaliação quantitativa em cortes histológicos transversais do couro cabeludo
The study found average numbers for different types of hair follicles in the scalp and observed differences between men and women, suggesting reasons for more common hair shedding in women.
research Protein and amino acid composition of hair from mice carrying the naked (N) gene
The N gene affects the protein makeup of mouse hair.
