This review examines mesenchymal stem cell therapy as a promising alternative for end-stage liver disease, discussing completed clinical trials and highlighting challenges that must be addressed before clinical application.

Finasteride reduces hair loss and treats BPH without major hormone changes, but may cause sexual dysfunction.

This review found that patients taking antiandrogens, 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors, and spironolactone have an increased risk of developing gynecomastia, potentially due to hormonal changes.

This article reviews the symptoms, diagnosis, and management of polycystic ovary syndrome, emphasizing lifestyle changes and medical interventions, but presents no new findings.

This study, examining perceptible hair density changes in androgenetic alopecia patients, found that dermatologists could accurately detect hair loss at a lower threshold than previously noted, specifically at a 22.66% relative density difference, challenging assumptions about their predictive accuracy based solely on clinical examination.

This review discusses the role of neurosteroids and androgens throughout different life stages, noting the potential disruptions caused by 5α-reductase inhibitors like finasteride, but no new clinical results are reported.

This review discusses the role of growth factors in hair physiology and their involvement in conditions like androgynous and focal alopecia, reporting no new clinical findings.

This study evaluated the accuracy of the HairCheck device, a cross-section trichometer, and concluded that it effectively measures changes in hair diameter and density for assessing alopecia progression and treatment response.

This narrative review suggests that the association between weight-loss medications and telogen effluvium is primarily due to metabolic changes from rapid weight loss, rather than a direct pharmacological effect on hair follicles.

This article discusses a novel hypothesis on the role of hair follicles in dandruff pathogenesis, focusing on immune response and inflammation due to scalp microbiota changes and sebum by-products, but reports no new clinical results.

This study provides a comprehensive analysis of anabolic-androgenic steroids, reporting that their use enhances muscle mass but is associated with significant health issues including cardiac muscle hypertrophy, liver disease, and changes in gender characteristics, emphasizing the need for patient awareness of these risks.

This narrative review reported that a variety of lifestyle-based interventions, such as specific dietary changes and physical activity, along with adjunctive therapies, have potential benefits in managing metabolic and hormonal outcomes in women with PCOS, although the variable study quality suggests further research is needed.

This pilot study detailed the use of Hair-to-Hair-matching technology™ in a clinical trial to assess botulinum toxin's efficacy in treating male androgenetic alopecia, providing a precise method for evaluating hair count and thickness changes over time.

This review discusses various skin reactions after SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 vaccination, noting a higher incidence with mRNA vaccines than adenovirus vector vaccines, and reports no new clinical results.

In this review, researchers examined nine studies on botulinum toxin type A's effects on biomarkers in chronic head and neck conditions, finding significant, though low to moderate certainty, changes in markers like CGRP and serotonin associated with inflammation and mood disorders.

This study investigated the effects of heat-treated Limosilactobacillus fermentum LM1020 on hair growth and reported increased hair density, improved cellular activity, and beneficial scalp microbiota changes in patients with androgenetic alopecia over 24 weeks.

In this 24-week study, oral supplementation with hydrolyzed low-molecular-weight porcine placental peptides significantly improved scalp elasticity, hair diameter, tensile strength, surface roughness, and luster compared to placebo, suggesting its potential as a nutritional intervention for age-related scalp and hair changes.

This review discusses the clinical manifestations and diagnostic challenges of polycystic ovary syndrome in adolescents, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and intervention to manage symptoms effectively, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article presents a systematic approach for obstetricians/gynecologists to diagnose and manage common types of nonscarring hair loss in women, reporting no new clinical results.

This review outlines various non-rash skin toxicities associated with novel targeted anticancer therapies and provides guidelines for their early diagnosis and management, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses adverse cutaneous drug reactions associated with antidepressants and provides guidance on managing these reactions, but it reports no new clinical findings; the authors recommend cautious use and alternative treatment if reactions occur.

This study presented cases of severe and permanent nail changes resembling lichen planus in patients with chilblain lupus erythematosus, suggesting a unique pattern related to cold exposure rather than typical histopathology findings.

This article reviews the clinical features and potential associated conditions of alopecia areata, including its progression and histopathological characteristics, but reports no new clinical findings.

This article is a case report on severe hair loss due to telogen effluvium occurring during inpatient rehabilitation and does not provide new clinical results.

This article discusses the clinical manifestations and management strategies of skin side effects from epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the relationship between aging, chronic inflammation, and immunosuppression, suggesting that these interconnected processes may contribute to tumorigenesis and premature aging, but reports no new experimental results.

Women's ovarian hormones and adrenal androgens change throughout life, affecting hair loss and health.

This review summarizes the positive clinical response of using platelet-rich plasma as an adjuvant in skin rejuvenation treatments, with no identifiable complications, suggesting a promising outlook for its future use.

This article discusses the importance of integrating clinical observations with laboratory research, emphasizing the need for clinicians to collaborate with researchers to address medical problems.

This study found that Th22 cells and their cytokine IL-22 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus and could serve as bioindicators for monitoring disease severity.
