DrugNet effectively identifies new uses for existing drugs and may save resources in drug development.
research Analysis of the Human Diseasome Using Phenotype Similarity Between Common, Genetic, and Infectious Diseases
The study found that diseases can be grouped by symptoms and that the accuracy of predicting disease-related genes varies with the data source.
research 5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors Are Associated With Reduced Frequency of COVID-19 Symptoms in Males With Androgenetic Alopecia
5-alpha-reductase inhibitors may reduce COVID-19 symptoms in bald males.
research Evaluation of the Predictive Capacity of DNA Variants Associated with Straight Hair in Europeans
Certain DNA variants can predict straight hair in Europeans but are not highly specific.
research Testosterone-Like Immunoreactivity in Hair Measured in Minute Sample Amounts: A Competitive Radioimmunoassay with an Adequate Limit of Detection
The new test can measure very small amounts of testosterone in hair, and grinding the hair up first gives more accurate results.
research Hirsutism Scoring in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Concordance Between Clinicians' and Patients' Self-Scoring
Patients with PCOS tend to score their hirsutism higher than clinicians, making self-scoring less useful for diagnosis.
research Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome in Taiwanese Women
Obesity is a major risk factor for insulin resistance in Taiwanese women with PCOS, which is also an independent risk factor for metabolic syndrome.
research Proteins Observed in Scalp Hair from Preschool Children
Mothers have more hair proteins than their children, with age-related differences in protein patterns, and some proteins in hair could indicate early childhood development.
research Assessment of the Mean Platelet Volume-to-Platelet Count Ratio in Alopecia Areata: A Retrospective Case Control Study
The MPV/PC ratio can help assess disease activity in alopecia areata.
research Abstracts from the ASA 40th Annual Meeting
HNG may help prevent the negative effects of chemotherapy on sperm production and white blood cell counts.
research Association Between Androgenic Alopecia and Coronary Artery Disease: A Cross-Sectional Study of Han Chinese Male Population
Severe and early hair loss may indicate a higher risk of heart disease.
research YKL-40: A Sensitive Biomarker for Early Androgenetic Alopecia and Early Hidden Metabolic Syndrome
High YKL-40 levels predict early hair loss and hidden metabolic issues.
research Hair Transplantation Versus Scalp Micropigmentation: A Retrospective Study of Treatment Selection in Persons With Female Pattern Hair Loss
Hair transplants are better for severe hair loss, while scalp micropigmentation suits those with denser hair.
research Proteins in Scalp Hair of Preschool Children
Hair proteins in preschool children and their mothers could indicate developmental changes and health status.
research Plasma Diaphanous Related Formin 1 Levels Are Associated with Altered Glucose Metabolism and Insulin Resistance in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Case Control Study
Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) have lower levels of a substance called DIAPH1 in their blood, which is linked to changes in sugar metabolism and insulin resistance.
research Comparative Studies on Polyamine Levels in Plasma and Urine of Androgenic Alopecia Patients Treated with Finasteride for a Period of Three Years
Finasteride treatment for three years changes certain polyamine levels in the blood but not in urine.
research Ratio of Ovarian Stroma and Total Ovarian Area by Ultrasound in Prediction of Hyperandrogenemia in Reproductive-Aged Thai Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Diagnostic Test
Ultrasound measurement of the ovarian stroma to total area ratio is not a reliable single predictor of high male hormone levels in Thai women with PCOS, but works better when combined with clinical signs.
research Assessment of Diagnostic Competence of Plasmatic Androgens on Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Based on Receiver Operator Characteristic Curves
Free Testosterone Index, bioavailable testosterone, and androstenedione are the most accurate for diagnosing excess male hormones in PCOS.
research Automated Machine Learning Analysis of Patients With Chronic Skin Disease Using a Medical Smartphone App: Retrospective Study
Machine learning can predict symptoms and quality of life in chronic skin disease patients using smartphone app data, and shows that app use varies with patient characteristics.
research Pattern of Body Fat Distribution in Patients with PCOS Using DEXA-Based Indices
PCOS patients have more central body fat, which can be effectively measured using DEXA.
research Prostate Specific Antigen in Diagnosis of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: A New Insight
PSA levels are higher in women with PCOS, but FAI is a more accurate marker for diagnosis.

Measuring the distance from the anus to the clitoris may moderately help diagnose polycystic ovary syndrome, especially in certain cases.
research GPX4 mRNA Levels in Polymorphonuclear Neutrophils Are Negatively Correlated with Autoantibody Production, Disease Activity, and Lupus Alopecia in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Lower GPX4 mRNA levels are linked to higher disease activity and symptoms in lupus patients.
research Genetic Prediction of Male Pattern Baldness Based on Large Independent Datasets
New models predict male pattern baldness better than old ones but still need improvement.
research Finasteride Monotherapy Before TURP: Significant Improvement in Early Postoperative Quality of Life
Finasteride before TURP reduces blood loss and improves early postoperative quality of life.
