In this animal study, agmatine exhibited a protective effect against seizures related to hormone fluctuations, with results suggesting that its anticonvulsant properties may involve interactions with central neurosteroids in female rats experiencing progesterone withdrawal.

This study suggests that extrasynaptic δGABA-A receptors may have a protective role in modulating the severity of catamenial-like seizures by influencing neurosteroid and benzodiazepine responses in mice.

This text is an informational content piece about JAMA Dermatology's website and does not contain any research findings or conclusions.

This study found that pimozide, d-butaclamol, and pituitary pars intermedia grafts darken hair color in agouti C3H Avy mice, suggesting dopaminergic inhibition influences peptide-controlled hair color cycling.

This case report describes a 57-year-old Navy veteran with mild cognitive impairment who showed cognitive improvement and reported better mood after CPAP treatment and medication adjustments.

Antidepressants can cause long-term side effects like severe withdrawal symptoms and sexual dysfunction, which can last for months or years after stopping the medication.

This study found that the antiseizure activity of midazolam primarily occurs through synaptic GABA-A receptors, with no significant involvement of endogenous neurosteroids or extrasynaptic receptors.

This study found that men experiencing long-term symptoms after finasteride use for androgenetic alopecia frequently reported loss of penis sensitivity and anhedonia, among other effects, indicating potential post-finasteride syndrome.

The anti-hangover product may boost enzyme activity to help prevent brain damage.

This review identified alopecia as a significant cosmetic side effect of antiseizure medications, particularly with valproate, lamotrigine, and carbamazepine, noting that hair loss often improves after dose adjustment.

This review concludes that anabolic–androgenic steroid abuse may lead to significant neurotoxicity, affecting brain structure, neurotransmitter systems, and increasing the risk of mood disorders and cognitive deficits.

This article presents five cases of valproate-induced hyperammonemic encephalopathy in psychiatric patients treated at the authors' clinic and discusses existing literature on this side effect.

This case report describes the first documented occurrence of hemi-Isaac's syndrome or acquired neuromyotonia affecting only one side of the body, with symptoms improving after immunomodulatory treatment.

This review discusses the degenerative effects of anabolic-androgenic steroids on the nervous system and reports no new experimental results, aiming to increase public awareness of their health risks.

This study reports anagen hair loss four weeks after scalp surgeries, likely due to transient ischemia, and emphasizes the importance of informing patients about potential hair loss and recovery within three months.

This case report documents unilateral madarosis and facial alopecia as potential adverse effects of botulinum A toxin injections in a patient treated for left oromandibular dystonia.

This article presents a dissenting opinion, arguing that the case described by Dr. Molina et al. was diffuse alopecia areata, not acute alopecia areata as claimed, emphasizing the importance of distinct clinical differences.

This article reports no new clinical findings and provides no abstract, focusing on imipramine-induced lesions resembling alopecia areata.

This report describes a case of adrenomyeloneuropathy where neurogenic bladder dysfunction developed, attributed to demyelinating lesions in the patient's peripheral nerves, spinal cord, and cerebral white matter.

In this study, adult male rats exhibited significant anxiety-like behaviors following finasteride withdrawal, including pronounced hyperactivity and novelty avoidance, highlighting potential parallels with post-finasteride syndrome observed in clinical settings.

This case report describes hair loss associated with olanzapine use, which resolved after discontinuation of the drug, highlighting potential reversible alopecia with atypical antipsychotics.

This study found that the emotional impact of alopecia areata is significant, but it may not correlate directly with the extent of hair loss since some individuals adapt to the condition.

This article presents two cases of anagen effluvium following oral albendazole use and summarizes previously reported cases, suggesting this side effect may occur with this drug.

This study found that finasteride significantly improved motor, EEG, and cellular changes in a rat model of thioacetamide-induced hepatic encephalopathy and prevented the development of hepatic coma.

This study observed that short-term administration of finasteride in male Wistar rats induced anxiety-like and depression-like behaviors, impaired spatial learning and memory, and reduced synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus, with a trend of increased corticosterone levels noted.

This study observed that valproic acid treatment led to a significant reduction in aggressive and impulsive behaviors among patients with acquired brain injury, with varying effects based on cognitive impairment degree; the treatment was generally well-tolerated, though some patients experienced temporary side effects.

This study reports that men with androgenic alopecia experience altered neuroactive steroid levels associated with persistent depression symptoms even after stopping finasteride treatment.

In this case report, a 38-year-old woman with Parry–Romberg syndrome displayed left-sided facial atrophy and subclinical central nervous system involvement detectable by neuroimaging, suggesting that even symptom-free cases may benefit from systematic brain evaluations.

This study suggests that repeated trilostane treatment increases brain allopregnanolone levels and delays epileptogenesis in rats after status epilepticus.
