research Drug-Induced Changes in Hair Growth
Some drugs can cause hair loss or growth, but hair usually returns to normal after stopping the drug.
research Drug-Induced Hair Loss and Hair Growth
Some drugs can cause hair loss or increase hair growth, but these effects are usually reversible when the drug is stopped.
research A Review of Diagnosis and Treatment of Acne in Adult Female Patients
Adult female acne treatment should be personalized, considering individual preferences and pregnancy, using various topical and oral medications while managing side effects and resistance.
research Dihydrotestosterone Stimulates 5α-Reductase Activity in Pubic Skin Fibroblasts
Dihydrotestosterone increases the activity of an enzyme in pubic skin cells that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.
research Clinical Management of Patients with ASXL1 Mutations and Bohring-Opitz Syndrome, Emphasizing the Need for Wilms Tumor Surveillance
Patients with Bohring-Opitz syndrome and ASXL1 mutations need regular kidney ultrasounds to check for tumors.
research Hair Loss Pattern Due to Chemotherapy-Induced Anagen Effluvium: A Cross-Sectional Observation
Chemotherapy often causes patterned hair loss, with some scalp areas more resistant to hair loss than others.
research Dermatologic Manifestations of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection

The document concludes that early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for managing skin diseases in ferrets.
research Integrin α3β1 in Hair Bulge Stem Cells Modulates CCN2 Expression and Promotes Skin Tumorigenesis
Removing integrin α3β1 from hair stem cells lowers skin tumor growth by affecting CCN2 protein levels.
research Radiation-Induced Alopecia After Endovascular Embolization Under Fluoroscopy
A man had temporary hair loss from radiation during a medical procedure but regrew his hair after treatment with minoxidil lotion.
research Scalp Tourniquets for Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
