research Association Between Trichoscopic Features and Serum Hormone Levels and Vitamin D Concentration in Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia in Eastern China: A Cross-Sectional Study
Higher SHBG levels are linked to less severe hair loss in women, but vitamin D levels don't seem to affect hair loss.
research In Silico Study on the Contribution of the Follicular Route to Dermal Permeability of Small Molecules
Hair follicles affect how well small molecules can pass through the skin, and this varies depending on the molecule's features.
research Impact of Treatment with Rosiglitazone or Metformin on Biomarkers for Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Syndrome in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Rosiglitazone may be better than metformin for insulin resistance in PCOS, but more research is needed on certain biomarkers.
