This study highlights the significant psychiatric effects associated with dengue fever, noting diverse psychological reactions that occur before, during, and after infection, such as anxiety, depression, and even psychosis, and underscores the need for integrated mental health strategies within public health systems for dengue.

In this study, experts propose a diagnostic and treatment guideline for folliculitis decalvans, emphasizing the role of trichoscopy and introducing a therapeutic algorithm tailored to disease activity, which is significant for clinical management given the lack of specific clinical trials.

This study found that complete COVID-19 vaccination significantly reduces the risk of developing long COVID symptoms, with factors like age, female gender, and obesity increasing persistence of symptoms.

In this study, patients with post-COVID syndrome who were admitted to RICU were more likely to develop mood disorders compared to those admitted to ICU.

This abstract reviews the role of finasteride and potential dual 5alpha-reductase inhibitors in treating benign prostatic hyperplasia, suggesting that dual inhibitors may offer greater DHT suppression and therapeutic advantages, while emphasizing the need for clinical evaluation.

This case report describes a 37-year-old woman whose recurrent hair shedding was associated with low iron stores and a miscarriage, with improvements seen after increased iron intake.

In this study, only a subset of proposed biomarkers universally responded to priming in mesenchymal stromal cells, suggesting limited utility for standardized potency assays across different MSC types and conditions.

In this clinical trial, supplementation with Lambdapil® Anti Hair Loss capsules for 6 months significantly improved hair resistance and volume in women and increased the anagen/telogen hair ratio in men, indicating enhanced hair growth compared to the placebo group.

This article discusses the structure and functions of the integumentary system and wound healing processes, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that chronic UVR exposure in mice and humans leads to a permanent loss of papillary fibroblasts in the upper dermis, which is associated with changes in the extracellular matrix.

Some patients experience temporary hair loss after ulcerative colitis surgery, likely due to illness rather than the surgery itself, and it usually grows back within six months.

This study highlights the evolving understanding of acne's pathophysiology and suggests that targeting pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β, IL-17, IL-23, and TNFα with biological antibodies may offer new treatment strategies for severe acne and its scars.
