In this study, there was no evidence that using 5α-reductase inhibitors for either short or long durations increased the risk of male breast cancer.

This study found that low iron stores are a risk factor for excessive hair loss in non-menopausal women.

In this study, researchers reviewed recent advances in using nanoencapsulation technology to improve the pharmacological treatment of alopecia, suggesting its potential to enhance drug delivery and reduce adverse effects compared to conventional methods.

In this study, low grade inflammation was associated with skin conditions like atopic eczema, onychomycosis, and rosacea in an adult Finnish population.

In this NIH study, female donor to male recipient sex mismatch was significantly associated with the development of vitiligo and/or alopecia areata in patients with chronic graft-vs-host disease.

This study established a mouse model for Cushing's syndrome due to a specific Crh mutation, which may help explore the effects of glucocorticoid excess and evaluate treatments for corticosteroid-induced osteoporosis.

This review discusses the role of sex hormones in cardiac hypertrophy and notes that estrogen provides protection against hypertrophy in pre-menopausal women, which is reduced after menopause but partially restored with estrogen therapy.

This study demonstrated that AIRE-deficient rats exhibit key symptoms of APECED, making them a relevant model for exploring potential treatments.

This study found that Ecklonia cava polyphenols increased human dermal papilla cell proliferation and extended hair shaft length in vitro and ex vivo, suggesting potential as a therapeutic candidate for hair loss.

The researchers reported that they successfully developed and validated RP-HPLC and TLC methods for accurately measuring tamsulosin hydrochloride and finasteride in combination forms.

This article reviews the potential neuroprotective effects of 17α‐estradiol in neurodegenerative diseases and highlights its possibly lower toxicity compared to more feminizing hormones, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This article discusses the potential benefits of platelet-rich plasma injections in ovarian tissue to improve reproductive outcomes in IVF for older individuals and proposes a mechanism to enhance embryo ploidy rescue, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses common psychodermatologic conditions and provides practical diagnostic and therapeutic recommendations but reports no new results; the authors emphasize the challenge of treating patients who lack insight into their psychiatric symptoms.

This study demonstrates that locally synthesized estrogen and androgen neurosteroids play opposite roles in long-term synaptic changes in male rats' medial vestibular nucleus, with testosterone-dihydrotestosterone mediating long-term depression and 17β-estradiol mediating long-term potentiation.

This study found that central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia primarily affects adult women of African descent and suggests an association with traumatic hair care practices and delayed diagnosis.

This study found no significant differences in sensation recovery or scar formation between radiofrequency and scalpel incisions in upper blepharoplasty, although radiofrequency caused greater tissue damage.

This article discusses various skin pattern formations, their molecular mechanisms, and highlights the need for further understanding to connect molecular biology with organism phenotypes, without providing new clinical findings.

This study suggests that hormonal changes may contribute to the persistent symptoms of long COVID, with specific patterns observed in serum hormone levels related to fatigue and sensory dysfunction.

This study found that arctiin, a compound from Arctium lappa, demonstrated protective effects against oxidative stress-induced dysfunction in human hair dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential therapeutic use for alopecia.

In this study, researchers observed that African spiny mice, Acomys cahirinus, are capable of regenerating skeletal muscle in dermal wound sites, unlike common mice, Mus musculus.

This review discusses treatment options for tics in Gilles de la Tourette syndrome, highlighting existing therapies and potential future advancements, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study identified new potential targets and indications for several marketed drugs using in silico profiling, suggesting opportunities for drug repositioning.

This study of Black and Hispanic inner-city teens found that Norplant retention rates were 71% at one year and 62% at two years, with a history of induced abortion predicting higher continuation.

This review reports that women with polycystic ovary syndrome are at 28%–50% higher risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection, with increased rates of COVID-19-related hospitalization, morbidity, and mortality.

This article discusses the discovery of the first known menstruating rodent, the spiny mouse, and proposes that a significant increase in progesterone during the luteal phase is a unique feature of menstruating species, but reports no new experimental results.

This study identified sex-specific determinants for facial wrinkles, finding that age is the strongest factor and that lifestyle influences like smoking, alcohol use, and skin color differentially affect wrinkling in men and women.

This study discovered a new region in the hair cortex where intermediate filaments are both aligned with the hair's axis and orientationally ordered, influenced by the cuticle boundary.

This study found that extracellular ATP released from UVB-irradiated keratinocytes promotes melanin production through the P2X7 receptor, indicating a role for ATP-P2X7 signaling in UV-induced melanogenesis.

This review found that while finasteride may improve female pattern hair loss and hirsutism in women, more long-term studies are needed to optimize its use and assess potential consequences.

In this study, minoxidil treatment in aged mice increased elastin expression and improved aortic structure and function, suggesting its potential for arterial remodeling in aging.
