This review discusses the complex relationship between stress and various skin conditions, highlighting the role of the skin in the stress response and the brain-skin communication pathways, but reports no new research findings.

This review discusses telogen effluvium, a common type of hair loss, focusing on differentiation from other conditions and potential causes, but presents no new research findings.

This review discusses how macro-environmental factors such as intradermal adipose tissue and sex hormones influence hair and feather stem cell niches, suggesting environmental targets for regenerative medicine, but reports no new clinical results.

This study identified a sulfotransferase activity in rat liver that catalyzes the sulfation of minoxidil, contributing to its delayed hypotensive effects.

This study found that parents identified with cryptic NCCAH through genetic testing are mostly asymptomatic but may experience temporary female infertility and require glucocorticoid stress coverage in specific circumstances.

Minoxidil improves blood flow in heart failure patients.

This paper discusses the pathogenesis of cardiovascular lesions in dogs associated with minoxidil, noting that lesions were not prevented by adrenergic blockade or neural activity suppression, and highlights the differences in injury progression between coronary arteries and the right atrium.

This article reviews major types of genetic hair shaft defects and associated syndromes, emphasizing understanding histologic features and diagnostic methods, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that at least four different human sulfotransferase activities contribute to the sulfation of minoxidil, complicating predictions of individual responses based on ST levels.

This review discusses the multiple layers of environmental controls on hair stem cell homeostasis and suggests that targeting these layers could offer safer regenerative medicine therapies without directly using stem cells.

This study suggests that finasteride may be a promising treatment for chronic central serous chorioretinopathy, but larger controlled trials are needed to confirm its efficacy.

In this study on Drosophila wings, researchers identified 435 genes with significant expression changes during wing hair morphogenesis, and found new phenotypes for 9 genes through functional validation.

This article discusses the role of neurohormones and neuropeptides in hair follicle pigmentation and outlines promising neuroendocrinological strategies to address greying and damage, but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed enduring sexual dysfunction reported in 300 cases globally following the use of SSRIs, finasteride, and isotretinoin, with common symptoms like genital anaesthesia and loss of libido.

This study reports a method for efficiently synthesizing chromeno-pyrimidine-N-oxides in good to excellent yields, confirmed by X-ray analysis, through a reaction between 4-chloro-3-formylcoumarin and aromatic carboximide oximes.

This review discusses various techniques for evaluating hair shedding and alopecia but reports no new clinical results. The authors emphasize the value of specific clinical and instrumental methods in assessing hair growth.

This review discusses pharmacologic treatment options for muscle-related pain conditions and notes that there is strong evidence for the efficacy of tricyclic antidepressants and muscle relaxants in specific myofascial pain syndromes, but not universally.

Human enzymes can detoxify harmful substances but might also increase their cancer risk.

In this review, researchers explored the roles of vitamins A, B3, C, D, and E in skin immunity, highlighting their potential as therapeutics for skin diseases due to their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties.

Nitrendipine and nifedipine effectively block muscle contractions, while papaverine relaxes them and minoxidil needs high amounts to work.

This study found that patients with polycystic ovary syndrome have reduced heart rate recovery, an exaggerated systolic blood pressure response to exercise, and decreased heart rate variability, implying possible autonomic dysfunction.

This review discusses various skin lesions associated with endocrinologic disorders such as Cushing's syndrome and adrenal insufficiency, and it reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the skin condition myxedema associated with hypothyroidism, highlighting its characteristic non-pitting, glycosaminoglycan-rich nature, and reports no new results.

This review discusses the distinct clinical and psychological aspects of adult female acne and reports no new clinical results, highlighting the need for a comprehensive management approach.

This review explores the potential (neuro-)endocrine influences on hair follicle epithelial stem cell biology and emphasizes the need for more systematic research, but it provides no new empirical results.

This review discusses post-SSRI sexual dysfunction and post-finasteride syndrome, highlighting unknowns about their true incidence and underlying causes, and reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that chronic stress can lead to decreased skin pigmentation in mice by disrupting the skin's HPA axis, potentially making stress a risk factor for depigmentation.

This review discusses the pharmacologic properties, mechanisms, dosing options, and adverse effects of systemic glucocorticosteroids in dermatology, but reports no new findings.

This study found that in androgenetic alopecia, reduced stem cell factor production by dermal papilla cells may lead to decreased pigmentation in hair follicles.

This review discusses the cardiovascular risks associated with anabolic-androgenic steroid use and reports that, despite known toxic effects, further research is needed to clarify the causality of these risks.
