research Trichotillomania in children and adolescents: Review of the literature and case report
The document concludes that supportive home environments and addressing parent-child interactions can effectively treat trichotillomania in children.
research Helicobacter pylori infection and skin disorders
Some skin disorders might be linked to H. pylori infection, but more research is needed to confirm this.
research Molecular Interactions of New Pregnenedione Derivatives
The new progesterone derivatives effectively inhibit 5α-reductase and bind to the androgen receptor.
research Proposed mechanisms of low-level light therapy in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia
LLLT helps treat hair loss by increasing blood flow, reducing inflammation, and stimulating growth factors.
research Treatment of hyperandrogenism in women
Cyproterone acetate is the preferred treatment for women's hyperandrogenism when estrogen/progestogen use is safe.
research Effective combination therapy with high concentration of Minoxidil and Carboxygas in resistant Androgenetic alopecia: Report of nine cases
High concentration Minoxidil and Carboxygas effectively treated resistant hair loss with no side effects.
research Techniques for the discovery and evaluation of drugs against alopecia
We need better treatments for hair loss, and while test-tube methods are helpful, they can't fully replace animal tests for evaluating new hair growth treatments.
research The psychosocial consequences of androgenetic alopecia: a review of the research literature
Hair loss affects self-esteem and quality of life; treatments can help.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Advances in Regenerative Stem Cell Therapy in Androgenic Alopecia and Hair Loss: Wnt Pathway, Growth-Factor, and Mesenchymal Stem Cell Signaling Impact Analysis on Cell Growth and Hair Follicle Development
Stem cell therapy, particularly using certain types of cells, shows promise for treating hair loss by stimulating hair growth and development, but more extensive trials are needed to confirm these findings.
research Medical and surgical therapies for alopecias in black women
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and a combination of medical, hair-care, and surgical treatments are important for managing alopecia in black women.
research Mast cell deficient and neurokinin-1 receptor knockout mice are protected from stress-induced hair growth inhibition
Certain mice without specific receptors or mast cells don't lose hair from stress.
research The Inflammatory Caspases-1 and -11 Mediate the Pathogenesis of Dermatitis in Sharpin-Deficient Mice
Certain proteins, caspases-1 and -11, are important in the early development of skin inflammation in mice.
research Low-level laser therapy for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia in Thai men and women: a 24-week, randomized, double-blind, sham device-controlled trial
LLLT promotes hair growth and improves hair density safely in men and women.
research Gelatin-chondroitin-6-sulfate-hyaluronic acid scaffold seeded with vascular endothelial growth factor 165 modified hair follicle stem cells as a three-dimensional skin substitute
