This case report found that two women developed toxic selenium levels after consuming paradise nuts, resulting in symptoms like massive hair loss and nail discoloration.

This study found that diagnosing nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia in women based solely on serum 17OHP measurements can lead to false positives, suggesting the need for urinary steroid profiles and genetic testing for confirmation.

This case study describes a 14-year-old girl with pili annulati who had fragile hair, which may be due to cavities within the hair shafts as seen in electron microscopic examinations.

This case report describes a previously healthy 3-year-old girl who developed scurvy symptoms not directly linked to vitamin C dietary deficiency, highlighting the potential for misdiagnosis in similar cases.

This study reported that the most reliable way to differentiate alopecia areata from androgenic alopecia is by detecting intrafollicular CD3 and CD8 cell density, with CD3 being the most specific and sensitive marker.

This study found that curcumin spanlastics demonstrated greater antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer activities in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line compared to curcumin alone or curcumin nanocrystals, also affecting several cancer-related protein markers and showing enhanced solubility and activity.

The document does not confirm if radical prostatectomy is the best treatment for locally advanced prostate cancer.

This study investigated the use of Minoxidil encapsulated in HA-PLGA nanoparticles for alopecia treatment and found that these nanoparticles efficiently delivered the drug to hair follicle cells without significant cytotoxicity, offering a potential transdermal delivery method for various diseases.

This review discusses targeting host cell proteases as a novel approach to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 infection, highlighting transcriptional modulation and enzymatic inhibition as promising therapeutic strategies, but it reports no new clinical findings.

The document concludes that treating skin conditions should include psychological care and a multidisciplinary approach is essential for effective management.

This study describes a case of a 35-year-old woman who developed symptoms of hyperandrogenism and disrupted steroidogenesis due to chronic use of electronic cigarettes containing compounds similar to etomidate, despite no genetic mutation indicating 11β-hydroxylase deficiency.
