Older age and specific haircare practices increase the risk of traction alopecia, and education on these factors could help prevent it.
research Evaluation of body dysmorphic disorder in hair loss patients and benefit after hair restoration
Hair transplant improved self-perception in hair loss patients, but some still remained overly focused on their hair appearance.
research Mesenchymal Meis2 controls whisker development independently from trigeminal sensory innervation
Meis2 is essential for whisker development, independent of nerve involvement.
research Rapid mechanosensitive migration and dispersal of newly divided mesenchymal cells aid their recruitment into dermal condensates
Newly divided skin cells quickly move to join skin structures due to tissue tension and specific signals.
research Effects of pre- and post-pubertal dihydrotestosterone treatment on penile length in 5α-reductase type 2 deficiency
