A new painless method to collect hair follicles helps study DNA damage and aging.
research Clinical Management of Cutaneous Adverse Events in Patients on Chemotherapy: A National Consensus Statement by the Spanish Academy of Dermatology and Venereology and the Spanish Society of Medical Oncology
Proper skin toxicity management in chemotherapy is key to continuing treatment and keeping patient quality of life high.
research Mouse Hair Cycle Expression Dynamics Modeled as Coupled Mesenchymal and Epithelial Oscillators
The study concluded that hair growth in mice is regulated by a stable interaction between skin cell types, and disrupting this can cause hair loss.
research Enhancing diabetic wound healing: advances in electrospun scaffolds from pathogenesis to therapeutic applications
Electrospun scaffolds can improve healing in diabetic wounds.
research Lugol's solution-induced painless thyroiditis
Lugol's solution can cause thyroid problems if used long-term for non-approved reasons.

research Harnessing Deep Learning for Scalp and Hair Disease Classification: A Comparative Study of Convolutional Neural Networks Architectures
VGG16 and VGG19 are the most accurate for classifying scalp and hair diseases.
research AVALIAÇÃO DO USO DE TELAS DIGITAIS POR CRIANÇAS E ADOLESCENTES EM TEMPOS DE PANDEMIA
Children's screen time increased during the pandemic, causing various health issues.
research Human Hair as a Testing Substrate in the Era of Precision Medicine: Potential Role of ‘Omics-Based Approaches
Human hair shows promise for non-invasive medical testing, but more research is needed to standardize its use.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Virilism and Ectopic Expression of HSD17B5 in Mature Cystic Teratoma
A woman's mature cystic teratoma caused her virilization by producing testosterone.
research The hair follicle as a neuro-immuno-endocrine organ: Implications in hair disorders and regenerative therapies
Understanding hair follicle signaling can improve hair disorder treatments.
research Inhibition of autophagy-lysosomal function exacerbates microglial and monocyte lipid metabolism reprograming and dysfunction after brain injury
Blocking autophagy worsens lipid buildup and dysfunction in brain cells after injury.
research Fever and rash as initial signs of systemic autoimmune disease. Case Report.
Fever and rash can be early signs of lupus.
research Scaly Papular Lesions
Topical imiquimod is as effective as 5-fluorouracil for treating actinic keratosis, with about a 5% risk of it turning into squamous cell carcinoma.
research Hair Examination
Understanding hair structure and growth is key for diagnosing hair diseases accurately.
research Generation of an integration-free human induced pluripotent stem cell line MUSIi010-A from occipital scalp fibroblasts of a male patient with androgenetic alopecia
Scientists created MUSIi010-A, a stem cell line from a balding man's scalp, to study hair loss and develop potential treatments.
research Biology of estrogens in skin: implications for skin aging
Estrogens can improve skin aging but carry risks; more research is needed on safer treatments.
research Pharma in the bedroom . . . and the kitchen. . . . The pharmaceuticalisation of daily life
The conclusion is that the increasing use of drugs for lifestyle reasons is a complex issue influenced by corporate profit, consumer behavior, and the medicalization of everyday life, with potential negative effects on personal well-being.
