This review describes techniques to manage intraoperative floppy iris syndrome linked to alpha-1 blocker use in cataract surgery, highlighting the need for patient disclosure of medication use but reports no new clinical results.

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 article discusses the role of growth hormone, insulin, and IGF-1 in acne development and highlights how diet and syndromic evidence support their involvement, but presents no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers reported that about one-third of men with premature alopecia displayed hormonal shifts and higher insulin resistance, resembling the prevalence pattern of PCOS in women.

This review discusses the potential of repeated low-level red-light therapy to inhibit myopia progression through metabolic effects, highlighting its molecular and cellular impact, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, socially defeated mice showed increased alcohol consumption, and CRF-R1 antagonism selectively reduced drinking in these mice, suggesting a potential treatment target for stress-related alcohol use disorders.

This study found that leukocytes and beard hair follicle cells have an endogenous circadian clock, with PER1 and PER3 expression possibly serving as biomarkers for assessing individual biological clock traits.

This study found that both finasteride and flutamide effectively reduced hirsutism in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, decreasing the Ferriman-Gallwey score and hair diameter without significant side effects.

This review discusses inflammatory and medication-related skin conditions associated with kidney disease and emphasizes the importance of timely referral to nephrology, reporting no new clinical results.

This review discusses how acute exposures to environmental and internal stressors can quickly alter skin functions, leading to various dermatological symptoms, and calls for more research on these short-term effects.

This study found that both men and women with androgenic alopecia had significantly higher triglycerides, total cholesterol, and LDL-C and lower HDL-C levels than controls, suggesting increased dyslipidemia prevalence.

This study found that women with androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata had significantly lower serum ferritin levels compared to women without hair loss.

People with hair loss have higher risk of high blood sugar and diabetes, and lower levels of a specific hormone.

This study suggests that in SZ95 sebocytes, a pathway for DHT biosynthesis does not require testosterone as an intermediate, potentially impacting the treatment of androgen-sensitive skin conditions.

This study found that a low dose of flutamide, both alone and combined with an oral contraceptive, effectively reduced hirsutism in women, with the combination showing more lasting effects post-treatment.

This mini-review discusses the role of androgens, specifically testosterone and dihydrotestosterone, in the pathogenesis of autoimmune liver diseases and reports no new results.

This review discusses hormone-modulating therapies for androgen-mediated cutaneous disorders in women but reports no new clinical results and highlights the need for more rigorous studies.

This study observed that patients with pemphigus have a higher incidence of hypothyroidism, inflammatory bowel disease, and diabetes compared to the general population.

This review discusses the use of platelet-rich plasma for various dermatological conditions and highlights the need for more research to standardize its protocols and understand its biological mechanisms.

This study found that measuring reproductive hormone levels in brown bear hair may effectively support non-invasive genetic sampling, though larger samples or more sensitive techniques are needed for broader application.

This retrospective review of the U.S. military's teledermatology program from 2004 to 2012 found that timely consultations helped avoid unnecessary medical evacuations and facilitated necessary ones for service members and coalition partners.

This article reviews advancements in hair restoration, highlighting improvements in surgical techniques and patient satisfaction, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that despite the persistence of aberrant double-negative T-cells, functional immune-competence was maintained after thymic transplantation in a patient with a rare FOXN1 mutation.

This study found that trained observers using the Hamilton-Norwood classification were very reliable in assessing balding patterns, while men's self-assessments were moderately accurate compared to observers.

This review discusses the use of antiandrogen therapy in dermatology, covering treatments for conditions like acne, hirsutism, and androgenic alopecia but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that women with female pattern androgenic alopecia have significantly higher levels of certain androgens and androgen sulfates compared to normal premenopausal women, suggesting markers for diagnosis and treatment efficacy.

This review discusses recent advancements in generating appendage-bearing skin organoids from pluripotent stem cells and their potential applications in dermatological research, but reports no new clinical results.

Hormonal treatments are effective as a second-line option for moderate-to-severe acne in females, but should be used with caution due to health risks.

This study found that male pattern baldness and a history of severe acne were inversely associated with testicular germ cell tumors, while taller height showed a positive association.

This study found that c-Jun is essential for vitamin D receptor expression, and the vitamin D receptor inhibits c-Jun-dependent cell death through non-classical mechanisms independent of vitamin D3.
