This study presents a 63-year-old man with uncontrolled hypertension and facial hair who was diagnosed with adrenocortical adenoma, and whose blood pressure improved post-surgery.

This article describes a new method for staining hair fibers that visualizes keratin filaments without the need for OsO4 fixation or sulfur bond breakage, but it provides no new experimental results beyond the method itself.

This study developed a deep learning framework and quantitative model that accurately predict basic and specific classification in male androgenetic alopecia by analyzing trichoscopic images.

This research review suggests that topical adenosine could improve hair thickness and user satisfaction in adults with androgenetic alopecia, with minimal side effects reported, but concludes that further studies are necessary to confirm these findings.

This study found that the treatment group experienced a higher average increase in hair counts than the placebo group, but the difference was not statistically significant.

This study concluded that niosomes could effectively serve as stable carriers for topical aminexil delivery, showing promising stability and a slow, biphasic release profile in laboratory settings.

This study found that early-onset androgenetic alopecia in men was associated with a higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome and carotid arteriosclerosis compared to controls.

In this study, women with male pattern alopecia had significantly lower serum sex hormone binding globulin levels compared to healthy controls, while testosterone levels remained similar.

This study suggests that genetic factors significantly influence adrenal androgen levels and the progression of puberty, with adrenal cortex maturation appearing independent of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis.

Human hair follicles can process steroid hormones like DHEA.

This case report describes a 43-year-old woman with scarring burn alopecia treated with tissue expansion and local flap reconstruction, who experienced reversible acute hair loss (Telogen Effluvium) after the procedure.

This review of SVF treatment for androgenetic alopecia found a significant increase in hair density across studies with no serious adverse events, but calls for standardized protocols and further research.

This study conducted in situ tensile loading experiments with atomic force microscopy to observe how conditioning treatments affect the tensile response of virgin, chemically damaged, and mechanically damaged Caucasian hair.

This study investigated the tensile response and morphological changes of different ethnic hair types using AFM, showing variations between virgin, chemically damaged, and conditioner-treated Caucasian hair under different conditions.

This study found that high-dose cyproterone acetate was effective for treating hirsutism, but 33% of patients felt their condition worsened on low-dose maintenance therapy, despite no significant change in objective measures of hair growth.

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.

In this study, 12 months of cyproterone acetate and ethinyl oestradiol treatment significantly reduced hair growth rate and certain hormone levels in hirsute women, though hair density and prolactin levels remained unchanged.

This study found that cyproterone acetate significantly reduced both serum 3α-AdiolG levels and hirsutism scores in women with idiopathic hirsutism, PCOS, or 21-hydroxylase deficiency, suggesting its effectiveness in treating excessive hair growth.

Alloxan diabetes, methylthiouracil, cortisone, and adrenaline affect how white mice hair follicles use glucose and cystine and their cell division.

This study reports experience treating 140 women with hirsutism and other virilism signs using cyproterone acetate and ethinyl estradiol, focusing on those treated for over five months.

This review examines the potential of Parquetina nigrescens for managing Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome, emphasizing its pharmacological activities and highlighting its promise as an affordable complementary therapy.

This study found no correlation between plasma androgen levels and androgenetic alopecia in women, suggesting that increased androgen action may not be reflected in these parameters.

This study categorizes the human fetal vaginal epithelium into four areas with distinct transcriptomic profiles, aiding potential advancements in vaginal reconstruction and drug delivery.

This study found that a nanoparticle-in-nanofiber system significantly accelerated wound healing in rats by promoting angiogenesis and tissue regeneration more effectively than a commercial wound dressing.

Radiation therapy with a higher dose for the brain improves survival in cerebellar medulloblastoma.

This study found that serum DHEA levels increase earlier and are higher in girls compared to boys through various stages of puberty, reflecting their earlier pubertal development.

This review explores how microneedles can improve the delivery of dermatological treatments by bypassing the skin's outer barrier, discussing their potential use in managing skin diseases, cosmetic applications, and challenges related to clinical adoption.

In this study, administering dexamethasone rapidly normalized elevated steroid levels in girls with premature adrenarche.

This study found that alkylation of kerateine cysteine residues created a cell-compatible method for controlling hydrogel erosion rates and therapeutic agent release in keratin-based systems.

In this study, hirsutism in women with PCOS was strongly associated with hyperandrogenism and metabolic abnormalities, while acne and androgenic alopecia were not effective markers for hyperandrogenism.
