In this study, cyproterone acetate combined with estradiol dramatically improved hirsutism symptoms and significantly reduced plasma testosterone and androstenedione levels in patients over periods of up to three years.

In this study, researchers developed a 3D chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol-tannic acid nanofiber sponge that demonstrated effective hemostatic, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties without antibiotics, accelerated wound healing in vivo, and showed high biocompatibility with L929 cells, highlighting its potential as a wound dressing for clinical use.

This review discusses hirsutism in women with PCOS who present with normal androgen levels and highlights diagnostic challenges, reporting no new clinical findings.

This study found that 3alpha-diol, an androgen metabolite, improved cognitive and affective performance in aged male rats, suggesting its role in countering age-related decline in hippocampally-influenced behaviors.

This study reports that a hair shedding threshold of 100 hairs or more may provide the best concordance with clinical diagnosis for distinguishing chronic telogen effluvium from androgenetic alopecia.

This review discusses the efficacy and safety of topical JAK inhibitors for inflammatory skin conditions, reporting modest benefits in psoriasis and atopic dermatitis but mixed results for vitiligo and inconclusive data for alopecia areata.

This study observed that higher prenatal androgen loads were associated with more severe alcohol dependence in male patients and linked to behaviors of pregnant women that may influence their children’s androgen exposure.

This review examines the evaluation and management of hirsutism and hyperandrogenism in postmenopausal women and reports no new clinical findings.

The researchers reported that the petroleum ether extract of Cuscuta reflexa may promote hair growth in testosterone-induced alopecia in mice by inhibiting the enzyme 5α-reductase.

This study observes the expression of mRNA for androgen receptor, 5α‐reductase, and 17β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in human dermal papilla cells.

This study reported that an injectable hydrogel based on platelet-rich plasma and laponite improved wound healing in diabetic and normal rats by enhancing angiogenesis and macrophage polarization.

This observational study found that patients with various skin diseases across 17 European countries experience higher levels of perceived stigmatization than skin-healthy controls, particularly those with psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, alopecia, and bullous disorders, with factors such as disease severity and psychological distress influencing stigmatization levels.

This review discusses the physiological roles of ovarian androgens in follicle development and atresia, emphasizing their contributions to polycystic ovary syndrome and normal follicle maturation but provides no new clinical results.

This study located a potential genetic link for androgenetic alopecia on chromosome 3q26, marking an early step in identifying new susceptibility genes for male pattern baldness.

This review suggests that androgenetic alopecia may be exacerbated by exposure to ultraviolet radiation and proposes considering it as a photoaggravated condition requiring photoprotection.

This study concluded that sebaceous glands are the main pathway for the antiandrogen RU 58841 to permeate the skin, with liposomes enhancing localization in these glands.

Hair growth is influenced by interactions between skin layers, growth factors, and hormones, but the exact mechanisms are not fully understood.

This review discusses the potential causes and treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia but reports no new clinical findings, highlighting the need for further research to understand its pathogenesis and develop validated treatments.

This review discusses the causes, clinical presentation, and management of anagen effluvium, emphasizing its psychological impact and the need for empathy and practical support, but reports no new results.

In this study, anabolic and catatoxic steroids were reported to prevent weight loss, tissue calcification, and cardiac necrosis in a rat model of disturbed calcium metabolism and progeria-like syndrome.

This study found that the multifunctional FEA-PCEI dressing significantly accelerated wound healing, reduced scar formation, and promoted hair follicle neogenesis while providing antibacterial and anti-inflammatory benefits.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma was not effective in treating androgenetic alopecia in men with grade 4–6 hair loss.

This study observed that N-palmitoylethanolamine (PEA) may relieve pain by enhancing de novo neurosteroid synthesis, evidenced by increased allopregnanolone levels and protein expression in pain models, dependent on PPAR-α.

This study found that the EtOAc extract of Tridax procumbens aerial parts significantly inhibited rat paw edema and COX enzyme activity, suggesting its potential anti-inflammatory properties.

This study highlights cases of alopecia areata that developed during anti-TNF-α therapy, suggesting a potential link or increased frequency, particularly among individuals with a personal or family history of autoimmune diseases.

This article proposes a mechanistic model for how platelet-rich plasma therapy may stimulate hair growth in androgenetic alopecia by promoting vascularization and activating specific signaling pathways, but it reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the dermatological adverse events from immunosuppressive and anti-TNF therapy in IBD, finding increased risks of non-melanoma skin cancer and other skin conditions, and recommends regular cancer screening.

This study found that keratin 6hf, a type II keratin, is expressed in specific regions of mouse and human hair and suggests potential interactions with keratin 17, impacting hair development and associated disorders.

This article highlights the lack of attention to the impact of polycystic ovarian syndrome on women's identity, mental health, and quality of life in India without offering new findings.

This study demonstrates that c-MYC overexpression in sebaceous glands affects differentiation via a regulatory axis involving the androgen receptor and p53, influencing carcinoma formation outcomes.
