research In vivo evaluation of insect wax for hair growth potential
Insect wax, especially its policosanol content, may help hair regrow by changing hair follicle phases and increasing nutrient supply.
research Results of 60-second timed hair counts in women between the ages of 20–60 years
The 60-second timed hair count is a reliable and simple way to measure hair shedding at home, showing older women tend to shed more hair than younger women.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome
PCOS is a complex condition with major health impacts, needing more research for better diagnosis and treatment.
research Cryptic Patterning of Avian Skin Confers a Developmental Facility for Loss of Neck Feathering
Birds can lose neck feathers due to a genetic change that increases a gene's activity, helping them adapt to heat.
research An ultrastructural study on corkscrew hairs and cigarette‐ash‐shaped hairs observed by dermoscopy of tinea capitis
Corkscrew and cigarette-ash-shaped hairs in tinea capitis are caused by internal hair degradation and external resistance.
