In this study, secondary syphilis presented diverse clinical manifestations, with syphilitic alopecia occurring only in HIV-positive patients, underscoring the importance of considering syphilis in differential diagnoses for vulnerable populations.

In this study, researchers found that overweight and obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome showed adverse changes in glucose metabolism over time, highlighting the importance of early intervention to prevent cardiometabolic diseases.

This study found that in male androgenetic alopecia, the contrast enhanced phototrichogram technique was superior in detecting changes in hair density and thickness compared to other methods.

This article reviews the importance of genomics in critical care nursing and highlights the need for nurses to understand genetic concepts and advancements to improve patient care, without providing new results.

This study of HCPS survivors in Chile found that 61.9% reported incomplete recovery at 3-6 months post-symptom onset, with ECMO users experiencing more motor dysfunction and palpitations, highlighting the need for multidisciplinary care to address persistent symptoms.

Phototrichogram helps assess hair loss severity.

In this study, researchers used EHR data from two large PCORnet networks to identify a range of long COVID diagnoses, highlighting varying post-acute risks across populations in NYC and Florida.

This report introduces a new potential sign, paired ear creases of the helix, which may have relevance to cardiovascular disease similar to diagonal ear lobe creases, in a case of coronary artery disease.

This study found that rat hair-follicle-associated pluripotent stem cells can be successfully differentiated into beating atrial and ventricular cardiomyocytes by using specific combinations of growth factors and inhibitors in culture, demonstrating their potential to form functional myocardial fibers similar to adult heart cells.

This study found that the ACE gene DD genotype and D allele are linked to an increased risk of hypertensive IHD complications, with dyslipidemia also identified as a significant risk factor for ischemic heart disease.

In this case report, a 38-year-old woman with Parry–Romberg syndrome displayed left-sided facial atrophy and subclinical central nervous system involvement detectable by neuroimaging, suggesting that even symptom-free cases may benefit from systematic brain evaluations.

This study evaluated an online survey tool designed to identify polycystic ovary syndrome, identifying areas for improvement that can aid in accurately assessing PCOS prevalence in general populations.

This study found that compound 3 derived from aza-bicyclo-carboxylic acid may exert a cardioprotective effect by reducing infarction area in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, potentially involving A1-adenosine receptor activation and changes in cAMP levels.

Among adult male rats, this study found that combined exposure to lithium carbonate and lead acetate over 28 days led to synergistic cardiotoxic effects, evidenced by oxidative stress, ECG abnormalities, and molecular markers of increased apoptosis, despite no observable structural damage to myocardial tissue.

This study reports that the nuclear receptor co-repressor 1 (NCoR1) inhibits cardiac hypertrophy by stabilizing the MEF2 and class II HDACs complex, potentially offering a target for new therapies.

This case study describes a rare presentation of childhood lupus with recurrent pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade that responded to glucocorticoid therapy.

This study reported that trichoscopy is a more effective diagnostic tool than the trichogram for early diagnosis of FAGA, regardless of hair shaft diversity cut-off levels.

This article discusses phototrichogram education and patient satisfaction in androgenetic alopecia but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, the combination of metoprolol and spironolactone in patients with coronary heart disease and heart failure significantly improved cardiac function and reduced inflammation and oxidative stress markers compared to spironolactone alone, with better clinical efficacy and fewer adverse effects.

In this study, women with androgenetic alopecia showed higher cholesterol levels and carotid artery thickness, suggesting a potential link between female AGA and cardiovascular disease.

This study suggests that male sex and androgenic steroid use increase the risk of atrial arrhythmias in individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, especially those with desmosomal gene mutations.

This case report highlights the importance of trans-esophageal echocardiography in distinguishing Libman-Sacks endocarditis from infective endocarditis in systemic lupus erythematosus patients, guiding appropriate treatment for associated cerebrovascular disease.

This study reports that in a rat model of myocardial infarction, Zn-Cu ion sequential therapy improved cardiac function and cardiomyocyte metabolic activity by precisely regulating ion concentrations and maintaining elevated levels of the Per2 protein, important for cellular repair.

This study concluded that including intermediate hairs or using relative shaft diameter methods can significantly improve the sensitivity of trichograms in diagnosing female androgenetic alopecia, aligning better with histopathology results.

The Princeton III Consensus recommends assessing cardiovascular risk in men with erectile dysfunction and prioritizing heart health before treating ED, especially in those with potential heart disease.

This review found that hyperandrogenism in premenopausal women is linked to a higher prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and diseases regardless of obesity, while in postmenopausal women, these risks depend on obesity.

This study found that finasteride improved cardiac function and reduced remodeling after myocardial infarction in mice.

This review discusses how trichoscopy is becoming a preferred non-invasive diagnostic tool over trichograms for evaluating hair disorders, although it reports no clinical results.

Passiflora incarnata may help with anxiety and sleep issues but has side effects; teleconsultation for heart failure can improve quality of life; increased screen time for children during the pandemic led to more clinical complaints; older and severely affected COVID-19 patients are more likely to have long-term symptoms.

This review discusses the complexities of diagnosing polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no new results; the authors suggest a thorough and careful diagnostic approach to avoid misdiagnosis and unnecessary tests.
