In this study, researchers reported that conventional treatments for folliculitis decalvans, which include steroids and antibiotics, are often ineffective, with many patients experiencing frequent recurrences of this scarring scalp disorder.

This study found that RCS-01 cell therapy for aged skin was well tolerated and associated with increased gene expression related to extracellular matrix homeostasis, suggesting potential skin improvement.

This review discusses the structural properties, pharmacological effects, and clinical applications of neurotoxins on synapses, reporting no new experimental results.

This review presents a comprehensive evaluation of medical reasoning using large language models, highlighting a significant gap between exam-level performance and true clinical decision-making accuracy.

Blood products can improve healing and aesthetics in plastic surgery but have inconsistent results.

This paper reviews obesity diagnosis and screening methods, emphasizing BMI's practicality in low- and middle-income countries, but provides no new clinical results.

This study found that compounds 21–23 and 25 exhibited strong 5α-reductase II inhibition in vitro and significantly reduced rat prostate weight, performing comparably to finasteride.

In this study, intradermal injections of QR678 were found to significantly reduce hair fall in men with androgenetic alopecia over 6 months, with superior improvements in hair density and thickness compared to PRP.

This study found that topical cepharanthine increased IGF-I production in human dermal papilla cells, suggesting it may stimulate hair growth and be a promising treatment option for androgenetic alopecia.

This study suggests that IL-33 promotes hair follicle changes and T cell infiltration in psoriatic mice and humans, contributing to psoriatic alopecia.

This study suggests that keratinocytes derived from hair follicles of patients with atopic dermatitis provide a useful model for investigating AD-related inflammation, as they showed greater expression changes of AD markers when stimulated with type 2 cytokines compared to those from healthy donors.

This review discusses the use of anabolic-androgenic steroids in sports and outlines current methods for detecting urinary steroid doping, particularly testosterone, but reports no new experimental findings.

This review discusses the potential carcinogenic effects of anabolic androgenic steroids, particularly regarding Leydig cell tumors, and highlights the need for preventive information campaigns due to associated health risks.

This review discusses recent data on the use of anabolic-androgenic steroids and other steroid compounds and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the cardiovascular risks associated with anabolic-androgenic steroid use and reports that, despite known toxic effects, further research is needed to clarify the causality of these risks.

This study found that nuclear androgen receptors are not necessary for androgen self-administration, suggesting that plasma membrane receptors might be involved.

This article reviews the skin effects of anabolic-androgenic steroid use in athletes but reports no clinical results.

This study found that plasma androgen levels tend to be lower than normal in patients with multiple pituitary hormone deficiencies, particularly those with ACTH deficiencies, and that human growth hormone treatment does not affect adrenal androgen secretion.

This review discusses the negative effects of anabolic androgenic steroids on various organ systems in men and reports no new results, highlighting the need for physician awareness.

This review discusses the relevance of human androgen receptor action in sports doping and examines the potential of cell-based biological assays for detecting androgenic anabolic steroid use, without presenting new research findings.

In this study, transdermal application of anabolic steroids demonstrated rapid and extended detectability in urine, suggesting potential implications for doping control considerations.

This article reviews the link between certain dietary supplements, such as vitamins B6/B12, iodine, whey, and muscle-building products, and acne, emphasizing the need for dermatologists to discuss supplement use with patients; it reports no new results.

This study found that trichoscopy aided in assessing treatment responses for patchy alopecia areata, with both intralesional corticosteroids and platelet-rich plasma showing effectiveness, but only PRP significantly improved patient symptom impact scores.

This source reports that testosterone therapy may mildly improve sexual desire in women with sexual dysfunction but lacks long-term safety data and cannot be widely recommended, as no formulations are approved for women in most countries.

This article discusses laboratory and physical markers that may help detect androgenic anabolic steroid abuse in athletes and reports no new primary research results.

This study suggests that male sex and androgenic steroid use increase the risk of atrial arrhythmias in individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, especially those with desmosomal gene mutations.

This clinical report details the case of a 22-year-old man experiencing severe pustular eruptions on his chest and back, which improved after increasing minocycline to 100 mg twice daily.

This consensus statement outlines a treatment algorithm for alopecia areata, detailing systemic treatment indications and options, including EMA-approved medications baricitinib and ritlecitinib for severe cases, as well as other off-label treatments and adjuvant therapies like oral minoxidil.
