This study found that among patients with discogenic low back pain, intradiscal injection of platelet-rich plasma over six months resulted in significant symptom improvement, with 79.3% achieving a clinically important reduction in pain and disability scores, and showed promising safety without treatment-related complications.

This article reviews the complex etiology of alopecia and emphasizes the need for detailed pathogenesis studies in animal models to develop effective personalized treatments, without presenting new experimental data.

This study identified differentially expressed microRNAs between back and belly skin in Rex rabbits, highlighting their potential roles in skin development processes.

This study examined feather follicle density in yellow-feathered broilers, finding that back follicle density was significantly higher than leg density and negatively correlated with various body weight measures; it also identified genetic markers and candidate genes, such as SERPINF1, associated with follicle density variations.

The case report highlights the diagnostic challenges of low-grade trichoblastic carcinoma, a rare malignant tumor often mistaken for benign lesions, in a 51-year-old female with immunocompromising conditions. Accurate diagnosis relied on histopathological examination, and achieving clear surgical margins was crucial to prevent recurrence.

This article examines when it is appropriate to prescribe estrogen for women with hormonal imbalances, utilizing decades of clinical practice, expert consultation, and a comprehensive literature review.

This article provides evidence on when it is appropriate to prescribe hormone therapy for women by reviewing cases from the author's practice and international literature, emphasizing the importance of primary care in managing hormonal imbalances.

This study observed that among a cohort of reproductive-aged women in the U.S., the prevalence of PCOS was about 4.0%, with no significant racial differences between White and Black women.

This study found that the prevalence of PCOS in a population of unselected U.S. women was 4.0%, with no significant racial differences between White and Black women.

This study found that hair products used by Black women and children in the U.S. contain multiple chemicals associated with endocrine disruption and asthma, highlighting potential exposure disparities and a need for improved labeling.

This study found that among bodybuilder-intended drugs from the black market, 33.8% of labeled products and 52.5% of steroidal oily solutions contained ingredients not matching their labels.
