Among reproductive-aged women in Iran, this study found that the prevalence of PCOS varied significantly depending on the diagnostic criteria used, with estimates ranging from 7.1% to 14.6%.

This review discusses the potential of ultraviolet (UV) radiation technologies in wound care, highlighting their antimicrobial properties and risks of DNA damage, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that combining oral finasteride with topical minoxidil resulted in the greatest improvement in hair growth for male patients with androgenetic alopecia, compared to using any single treatment.

This review discusses the evolution and ongoing debate about the causes of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African American women, without presenting new clinical findings.

Minoxidil slows fibroblast growth and collagen production, potentially treating keloids, hypertrophic scars, and connective tissue disorders.

This review discusses clinical, hormonal, and genetic aspects of nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia and reports no new findings; the condition is highlighted as a potential cause of premature adrenarche and other symptoms in young people.

This study found that compliance rates for oral contraceptives are low and similar to those for other medical treatments, indicating a need for alternatives that require less daily adherence.

In this study of reproductive-aged women in Tehran, idiopathic hirsutism and polycystic ovary syndrome were reported to be prevalent, with rates influenced by the screening methods used.

This case report suggests that oral finasteride, used for benign prostatic hyperplasia, may be associated with intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome during cataract surgery.

This study observed that patients with CYLD mutations frequently experienced severe, painful tumors beyond the head and neck, impacting their quality of life, with hormonal factors possibly contributing to tumor development.

This study found that male germ-free rats fed semisynthetic diets do not grow as rapidly as their conventional counterparts and require dietary biotin for normal metabolism and folic acid biosynthesis.

This review suggests that skin may largely protect itself from CYP-generated reactive metabolites due to higher conjugating enzyme activities, while highlighting limitations in modeling human skin metabolism experimentally.

In this study, patients with mild to moderate androgenetic alopecia who received platelet-rich plasma injections with microneedling showed improvements in hair growth and thickness, as well as high satisfaction, over a three-month period compared to conventional therapy non-responders.

This case report suggests a possible association between long-term finasteride use for male pattern baldness and the development of cataracts and intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome in a patient.
