This study concluded that Metformin may be suitable for prophylaxis or mild COVID-19, while a combination of Oseltamivir, Tamoxifen, and Dexamethasone could benefit moderate to severe cases, highlighting the need for more trials on other drug candidates.

This study retrospectively analyzed 945 patients with head and neck cSCC to identify risk factors for recurrences, reporting treatment modality, tumor characteristics, and patient factors such as immunosuppression as strong predictors for loco-regional recurrences.

The systematic review reports an association between Beau’s lines and COVID-19 infection or vaccination, observing variability in onset and resolution times, and suggesting these nail disorders might indicate previous severe infection or vaccination, as well as potentially signify long COVID-19 syndrome.

This study found that COVID-19 vaccine booster dose acceptance was high in the East Mediterranean Region, especially among those informed by the Ministry of Health, but concerns about benefits and side effects influenced rejection.

This study reported that about one-third of post-COVID-19 patients experienced long-term symptoms, with women, older individuals, smokers, and those with specific blood groups at higher risk for complications.

This study observed that patients with androgenetic alopecia in a western Indian population had a significantly higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome compared to a matched control group, suggesting that individuals with this type of hair loss may benefit from screening for metabolic syndrome.

This study found that 1% ketoconazole and 1% piroctone olamine shampoos increased hair shaft thickness and reduced hair shedding in men with telogen effluvium and androgenic alopecia associated with dandruff.

Finasteride 1 mg/day effectively treats hair loss in men aged 18-41 and over 41; DEET lotion works better than herbal insect repellents; combined tattoo removal technique shows no extra benefits.

This review observes higher ACE2 expression in myocardial and lung tissues of heart failure and COPD patients but finds no link between RAAS inhibitors and COVID-19 severity.

This randomized, controlled clinical trial found that combining 25 mg/d bicalutamide with 1 mg/d minoxidil for 24 weeks did not enhance hair density improvement in female pattern hair loss compared to 1 mg/d minoxidil alone, with no significant difference observed between the groups.

The authors concluded that a finasteride every other month regimen had similar maintenance effects to a daily regimen in men with androgenetic alopecia.

This study reported that the combination of a 308-nm excimer lamp and 10% liquor carbonis detergens significantly improved scalp psoriasis symptoms compared to the excimer lamp alone, with more patients achieving 75% reduction in their Psoriasis Scalp Severity Index.

This study found that trichoscopy can differentiate between dermatomyositis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and systemic sclerosis by identifying distinctive features and may help assess disease activity.

In this cross-sectional study of healthy urban women in Shanghai, poor sleep quality and elevated perceived stress were linked to various self-reported dermatological issues and clinical signs, reinforcing the potential relevance of psychological factors in skin health.

In this study, both methotrexate gel and betamethasone lotion were found to be effective and safe treatments for localized alopecia areata, with similar overall response rates. However, methotrexate gel had a higher incidence of local side effects, such as irritant dermatitis and itching.

This study found that trichoscopic parameters in male androgenetic alopecia deteriorated progressively with increasing disease severity and were significantly linked to genetic, metabolic, and psychosocial factors.

This study found that inhibiting AP-1 activity in mice modified tumor development, leading to transdifferentiation between squamous and sebaceous tumors, with molecular analysis suggesting AP-1's role in maintaining tumor cell identity.

This study found that in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cells, 17β-estradiol repressed polyamine oxidase transcription by interacting with AP-1 sites on its promoter.

This study found that inhibiting AP-1 transcription factors in mice causes squamous tumors to transform into sebaceous tumors and regulates tumor cell lineage.

This study found that inhibiting AP-1 activity in mice can induce lineage transdifferentiation between squamous and sebaceous tumors, suggesting AP-1's role in maintaining tumor cell identity.
