This review examines systemic drugs that can cause changes in hair color and emphasizes the importance of reporting these adverse events, but it does not include new clinical outcomes.

This case study reported an improvement in lower limb edema for a patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus after starting dulaglutide treatment, suggesting a potential role of the drug in sodium retention disorders.

Authors defend finasteride-depression link, suggest detailed medical history, and call for more investigation.

This review discusses the diagnosis and management of severe cutaneous adverse reactions to drugs and provides guidance for physicians to improve patient outcomes, but it reports no new clinical results.

This case series suggests a possible, though likely very rare, association between vaccinations and hair loss, calling for further research in more defined populations.

This study found that longer exposure to 5α-reductase inhibitors significantly increased the risk of persistent erectile dysfunction, especially in younger men exposed to finasteride.

This study confirms known risks of cladribine and reveals potential new safety concerns, emphasizing the need for careful monitoring for early acute toxicity.

This article discusses PCOS in adolescents and highlights the importance of early diagnosis and treatment to prevent long-term health complications, noting increasing adolescent obesity may worsen symptoms.

This study utilized the USFDA AERS to identify significant associations between various medications—such as anti-osteoporotic drugs and phenytoin—and gingival disorders, noting emergent signals with finasteride, COVID-19 vaccine, and levothyroxine, suggesting a need for awareness of oral side effects.

Two non-steroidal antiandrogens, RU 58841 and RU 56187, form a common metabolite at different rates, which may influence their effects; RU 56187 could be used for prostate cancer treatment and RU 58841 for acne treatment.

This study developed and tested a new algorithm for analyzing coat and skin coloration in laboratory animals, using digital images and hierarchical color clustering, which effectively quantified color proportions and tracked changes over time without specialized software.

In this study, improved hidden Markov algorithms based on Bayesian methods enhanced the resolution and segmentation accuracy of low-dose CT images significantly more than naive Bayesian methods.

This study introduces ALUDWIG, an automated tool for assessing female androgenic alopecia severity from smartphone images, which may offer a more consistent alternative to current scoring methods like the Ludwig scale.

This study found that 5α-reductase inhibitors significantly increase the risk of erectile dysfunction and hypoactive sexual desire in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia, compared to placebo.

The authors describe drug repurposing as a promising strategy for finding new uses for existing drugs, noting it is efficient, cost-effective, and poses lower risks than traditional drug discovery processes, potentially aiding in the treatment of rare and difficult-to-treat diseases.

This study found that combining data from different databases provided a more comprehensive estimate of serious adverse drug reactions in a French university hospital, highlighting the limitations of current ADR reporting methods.

This study confirms an association between TNF-α antagonist exposure and alopecia, indicating a class effect among the medications examined.

This study found that manipulating AKR1D1 expression in human liver cells effectively regulates glucocorticoid clearance and receptor activation, highlighting its role in liver-specific steroid hormone regulation.

This study found that co-administering glucocorticoids with 5α-reductase inhibitors exacerbated the adverse metabolic effects of glucocorticoids in healthy men.

Terbinafine can cause hair loss.

Oral cyclosporin doesn't stop hair loss.

Cyclosporin doesn't stop hair loss.

This study proposes a new method for hair segmentation that improved performance in skin lesion images, as indicated by an increase in the Dice score from 76.97% to 79.08%.

A new computer tool quickly measures hair thickness differences in people with common types of hair loss.

This study found that ZnO nanoparticles in topical skin products do not penetrate beyond the outer skin layers in humans, suggesting minimal safety concerns for subdermal absorption.

This study found that ethinylestradiol and high-dose cyproterone acetate significantly reduced hirsutism scores and were effective for treating acne and alopecia in women with hyperandrogenism.

This research abstract provides no results, focusing on the equal contributions of the authors in the field of molecular, cellular, and developmental biology from Yale University.

This study found that Sonic Hedgehog secreted by hair follicle transit-amplifying cells is essential for dermal adipogenesis and hair follicle growth by acting on adipocyte precursors.

This study observed that in hormone-starved prostate cancer cells, the androgen 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone rapidly induces matriptase activation and shedding, which involves androgen receptor signaling and requires both transcription and protein synthesis.

This study found that using ectopic expression of CD24 is a promising approach for selecting genetically modified human epidermal stem cells for safe cutaneous gene therapy in cancer-prone conditions.
