research Assessment of Quality of Life in Turkish Women with Hirsutism: A Cross-Sectional Study
In this study, hirsutism negatively affected quality of life in Turkish patients, as measured by the Dermatology Life Quality Index, although no significant relationship was observed between the severity of hirsutism and quality of life scores.
research The Role of Stress in Alopecia Areata and Comparison of Patients' Quality of Life with Androgenetic Alopecia and Healthy Controls
In this study, alopecia areata patients reported higher anxiety, depression, and lower quality of life compared to those with androgenetic alopecia and healthy controls.
research Prevalence Of Alopecia And Quality Of Life Among High School Students In Rural Eskişehir (Sivrihisar, Mahmudiye, Alpu, Beylikova)
In this study conducted among high school students in rural Eskişehir, Turkey, alopecia prevalence was 37.4% and was associated with factors such as oily scalp and irregular menstruation, negatively affecting quality of life.
research Navigator Nursing Model And Roles Of Navigator Nurse In Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Traditional Review
This review discusses the role of nurse navigators in managing polycystic ovary syndrome, highlighting their support in symptom management, lifestyle changes, psychosocial care, and evidence-based practices, but presents no new findings.
research Polymeric Micelle Nanocarriers for the Cutaneous Delivery of Tacrolimus: A Targeted Approach for the Treatment of Psoriasis
This study found that MPEG-dihexPLA micelles significantly improved the skin deposition of tacrolimus compared to a marketed ointment, suggesting better targeted delivery with reduced systemic absorption.
research Clinical Management of Youth with Gender Dysphoria in Vancouver
This study reported that treatment with gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogs and cross-sex hormones appears appropriate for carefully selected youth with gender dysphoria, but long-term safety needs further investigation.
research Novel Micelle Formulations to Increase Cutaneous Bioavailability of Azole Antifungals
This study found that econazole nitrate delivered via MPEG-dihexPLA micelles significantly increased skin deposition compared to Pevaryl® cream, potentially enhancing drug bioavailability and clinical efficacy.
research Significant Correction of Disease After Postnatal Administration of Recombinant Ectodysplasin A in Canine X-Linked Ectodermal Dysplasia
This study found that postnatal treatment with recombinant EDA normalized adult teeth, improved sweating, and restored normal lacrimation in dogs with XLHED, suggesting its potential as a treatment for the condition.
research Control of Hair Follicle Cell Fate by Underlying Mesenchyme Through a CSL–Wnt5a–FoxN1 Regulatory Axis
In this study, the researchers reported that Notch/CSL signaling is crucial for hair follicle differentiation, with Wnt5a signaling and FoxN1 acting as mediators in mice.
research Pharmacological BACE1 and BACE2 Inhibition Induces Hair Depigmentation by Inhibiting PMEL17 Processing in Mice
This study found that dual inhibition of BACE1 and BACE2 in mice affects melanosome maturation and causes dose-dependent hair depigmentation without altering retinal morphology.
research An Essential Role for RXRα in the Development of Th2 Responses
This study found that a specific mutation in the mouse RXRalpha gene significantly impacts immune responses and causes hair loss and skin cysts.
research Quality of Life in Alopecia Areata: A Study of 60 Cases
Alopecia areata seriously lowers quality of life, especially affecting self-image, mental health, and social life.
research A Putative Role for Fusaric Acid in Biocontrol of the Parasitic Angiosperm Orobanche Ramosa
This study suggests that fusaric acid at nontoxic concentrations may activate signal transduction in plants which could aid in the plant-defense responses against Fusarium spp.
research Using a Capture–Recapture Method to Assess the Frequency of Adverse Drug Reactions in a French University Hospital
This study found that combining data from different databases provided a more comprehensive estimate of serious adverse drug reactions in a French university hospital, highlighting the limitations of current ADR reporting methods.
research Biorevitalizing Effect of a Novel Facial Serum Containing Apple Stem Cell Extract, Pro-Collagen Lipopeptide, Creatine, and Urea on Skin Aging Signs
In this study, a new apple stem cell extract serum significantly improved signs of skin aging and enhanced cell metabolism in human senescent fibroblasts, showing visible effects after one week of use.
research Expression of the Orphan Protein Plet-1 During Trichilemmal Differentiation of Anagen Hair Follicles
This study found that the orphan protein Plet-1 is expressed in specific keratinocytes of mouse hair follicles and may regulate keratinocyte interactions with inert tissues by affecting migration and adhesion.
research Rare and Common Genetic Determinants of Metabolic Individuality and Their Effects on Human Health
This study identified thousands of variant-metabolite associations in the human plasma metabolome, offering insights into the genetic bases of metabolism and potential adverse drug effects.
research Acute Generalized Exanthematous Pustulosis Induced by Hydroxychloroquine Prescribed for COVID-19
This case study highlights that even short-term use of hydroxychloroquine for COVID-19 can potentially lead to acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis as an adverse effect.
research A Computational Approach to Mechanistic and Predictive Toxicology of Pesticides
This study investigated the modes of action of selected pesticides, suggesting that prochloraz and tebuconazole are linked to reproductive disorders via steroidogenesis disruption, while mancozeb involves inflammatory processes.
research Solid Lipid Nanoparticles Suspension Versus Commercial Solutions for Dermal Delivery of Minoxidil
This study found that solid lipid nanoparticles with minoxidil were as effective as commercial solutions for skin penetration and were non-corrosive, indicating potential for hair loss treatment.
