270-300 / 1000+ results research Pharmacotherapy for Keloids and Hypertrophic Scars
This source reports that for treating keloids and hypertrophic scars, combination pharmacotherapy targeting multiple sites is generally more effective than using a single drug, though outcomes of individual therapies vary and the development of satisfying treatments is ongoing.
research Assessment, diagnosis and treatment of a patient with hirsutism
A combined drug and laser treatment improved hirsutism in a PCOS patient, also enhancing her heart health and requiring regular liver and kidney checks.
research Carotid Body Tumor: Review of the Literature and Report of a Case With a Rare Sensorineural Symptomatology
A man's rare tumor caused unusual nerve-related symptoms that improved after surgery.
research Mutation in 5′ upstream region of GCH I gene causes familial dopa-responsive dystonia
A specific gene mutation is linked to a hereditary form of dystonia that responds well to certain medications.
research Baker′s dozen on the scalp: An interesting case of multiple trichilemmal cyst
A woman had 13 non-cancerous cysts on her scalp successfully removed in one surgery.
research Frontotemporal dementia with parkinsonism presenting as posterior cortical atrophy
A woman's unique dementia was misdiagnosed, a genetic mutation increases Parkinson's risk with age, and finasteride may help with Tourette syndrome.
research Black dot tinea capitis caused by trichophyton rubrum in an adult female presenting with cicatricial alopecia
A woman's scalp infection caused by a fungus led to permanent hair loss and was hard to treat but responded to a specific antifungal.
research Heterozygous 21‐hydroxylasedeficiency as a cause of hyperandrogenism
A woman's hyperandrogenism was caused by a genetic mutation leading to non-classic adrenogenital syndrome.
research Inexpensive Liquid Nitrogen Container
A cheap stainless steel container from a retail store can store liquid nitrogen effectively for 8-12 hours, saving money for medical practitioners.
research Delayed Puberty
A 19-year-old male with delayed puberty was successfully treated for a condition that prevents normal hormone production.
research Combined melanocytic nevus presenting with scalp alopecia associated with alopecia areata: Coincidence or causal?
A man's scalp hair loss was due to a combined melanocytic nevus and alopecia areata, suggesting a possible link between the two conditions.
research Decades of progressive red and yellow nodules
A 72-year-old man was diagnosed with a rare skin form of Rosai-Dorfman disease after years of misdiagnosis.
research Klinefelter syndrome and chronic leg ulcers
A man with Klinefelter syndrome had a leg ulcer that didn't heal well, even with treatment.
research Clinical interest of a nonchemical lotion in head lice management
A nonchemical lotion was found effective in killing head lice and their eggs in most people, indicating it could be useful for managing head lice.
research Obstetric and Gynecologic Dermatology
A pregnant woman's skin condition improved after giving birth, possibly due to high estrogen levels during pregnancy.
research Inexpensive Liquid Nitrogen Container
A cheap stainless steel container from a retail store can store liquid nitrogen effectively for 8-12 hours, offering a cost-effective alternative to specialized medical containers.
research Correspondence
A man's skin cancer improved and some of his hair grew back after treatment with a special light therapy and a medication.
research Alteration of Ethanol Drinking in Mice via Modulation of the GABAA Receptor with Ganaxolone, Finasteride, and Gaboxadol
This study suggests that neurosteroids and compounds acting on GABA(A) receptors, like THIP, may modulate ethanol intake by influencing drinking patterns.
research Three-dimensional reconstructions of mechanosensory end organs suggest a unifying mechanism underlying dynamic, light touch
This study found that Piezo2 channels are primarily located on sensory axon membranes in mechanosensory end organs, supporting a model where mechanical stimuli activate Aβ RA-LTMR neurons via axon protrusions.
research Forme létale de syndrome de Netherton au sein d’une famille multiplex consanguine
This study illustrates the severe neonatal clinical presentation of Netherton syndrome, which can be fatal despite intensive care, highlighting a specific homozygous mutation (c.1431-12G > A) associated with lethal cases.
research Hair follicle regeneration suppresses Ras-driven oncogenic growth
This study found that despite carrying an activating Hras mutation, hair follicle stem cells integrate into normal skin without causing tumors, unlike similar mutations in the epidermis, suggesting unique tumor-suppressing mechanisms in hair follicles.
research The Mystery of an Inflamed "Soul Patch".
In this case study, a 20-year-old man with dermatitis initially misdiagnosed as caused by Herpes simplex was found to have a fungal infection, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, and successfully treated with oral terbinafine and ketoconazole products.
research The importance of dual 5α-reductase inhibition in the treatment of male pattern hair loss: Results of a randomized placebo-controlled study of dutasteride versus finasteride
This study found that dutasteride increased scalp hair growth in men with male pattern hair loss, particularly at a 2.5 mg dose, and was more effective than finasteride over 24 weeks.
research Melatonin increases anagen hair rate in women with androgenetic alopecia or diffuse alopecia: results of a pilot randomized controlled trial
This article reviews the potential impact of melatonin on hair growth, noting its benefits observed in animals, but reports no clinical results in humans to date.
research Structural Study of Polymorphs and Solvates of Finasteride
This study reported new crystallographic structures and polymorphs of finasteride, including several solvates with distinct X-ray diffraction patterns and thermally characterized properties.
research Autologous Micrografts from Scalp Tissue: Trichoscopic and Long-Term Clinical Evaluation in Male and Female Androgenetic Alopecia
This study found that micrografts containing human hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells significantly increased hair count and density compared to placebo over 58 weeks in patients experiencing hair loss.
research Case Report: Pityriasis Rosea-Like Eruption Following COVID-19 Vaccination
This report describes a rare case of pityriasis rosea-like eruption in a 52-year-old Thai woman following Oxford/AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccination, emphasizing the condition does not preclude further vaccinations.
research Cutaneous alternariosis in a patient with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
This case report describes a 78-year-old farmer with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis who developed cutaneous Alternaria alternata infections, which improved with reduced prednisolone and itraconazole treatment, with no recurrence after two years.
research Novel aspects of age-protection by spermidine supplementation are associated with preserved telomere length
This study found that administering spermidine to aged mice for six months significantly reduced various age-related conditions, including brain, heart, kidney, liver issues, and hair loss, possibly due to decreased telomere attrition.
