This narrative review highlights that endurance, skill-oriented athletes, and physique-oriented competitors such as bodybuilders face accelerated degradation of fillers and botulinum neurotoxin due to elevated basal metabolic rates and other factors, and raised concerns about psychological conditions like body dysmorphic disorder in these populations.

In this study, researchers used patient-derived organoids to model metastasis in colorectal cancer and discovered that cancer cells temporarily switch to a wound-healing program, orchestrated by reduced EZH2 activity and YAP signaling, before spreading to new organs.

In this study, the Peninsula Timerevert Needle was found to provide effective treatment for skin photoaging and acne scars with less pain and shorter treatment duration compared to EndyMed, although it caused more bleeding.

In this study, oral administration of strawberry guava extract promoted hair growth in both mice and humans, with active components like adenosine, fructose, digalactosyldiacylglycerol, and pedunculagin contributing by enhancing skin blood flow and activating dermal papilla cells.

This review examines advancements in "smart" hydrogel dressings for complex wound healing, highlighting innovations in materials that provide multifunctionality, such as responsive drug delivery and regenerative capabilities. The study also addresses potential challenges in clinical application, like manufacturing and regulatory hurdles.

This review discusses PRP therapy's history, mechanisms, and innovations in its use across various medical fields, but provides no new clinical results; the authors highlight challenges like standardization and regulatory issues.

In this study, researchers aim to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of combining plum-blossom needle tapping with ginger juice rubbing to prevent hair loss in obese women after metabolic bariatric surgery, through a randomized controlled trial involving 96 participants.

This clinical trial found that using a 45-degree angled implanter with the bevel facing the skin in FUE hair transplantation significantly reduced insertion resistance, graft popping, and bleeding, while improving efficiency and graft alignment compared to conventional methods.

This review discusses the promising roles of nanozymes in burn wound treatment, highlighting their broad enzyme-like activities that include antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and pro-angiogenic effects, along with advantages over traditional treatments such as reduced drug resistance and higher stability.

This review provides a clinical guide for safely using dermo-aesthetic treatments to improve the quality of life for oncology patients dealing with treatment-related side effects, emphasizing the importance of consulting with an oncologist before undergoing such procedures.

This study found that curcumin spanlastics demonstrated greater antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticancer activities in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line compared to curcumin alone or curcumin nanocrystals, also affecting several cancer-related protein markers and showing enhanced solubility and activity.

This review outlines the major health consequences of anabolic-androgenic steroid abuse, with a focus on sexual and reproductive issues, and suggests management prioritizes cessation and relapse prevention due to lack of robust randomized trials.

In this study, a literature review highlighted that anabolic-androgenic steroid use in physically active men is associated with adverse effects across multiple body systems, including cardiovascular, endocrine, and psychiatric complications, underscoring the need for increased clinical awareness and further research.

In a hamster model of COVID-19, this study observed that both low and high doses of testosterone worsened illness in males, while finasteride prevented severe outcomes.

This study found that a cellulose membrane significantly shortened the healing time and reduced the ulcer area in patients with chronic venous leg ulcers compared to a standard antimicrobial dressing.

In this case report, a female patient with both psoriasis and lichen planus initially responded to acitretin and topical mometasone but experienced a relapse after stopping the treatment. The authors reported marked improvement within 3 months after switching to upadacitinib, aiming to guide clinical decision-making.

This review summarizes the role of G-protein-coupled receptors in wound healing and reports no new clinical results, highlighting their importance in signaling pathways and recent discoveries in their functions.

In this preclinical study, researchers developed and evaluated a new non-invasive laser system designed for personalized medical use, showing its potential for chronic disease management and adjunctive fat reduction by offering enhanced treatment precision and adaptability over existing devices.

This narrative review concludes that long-term randomized controlled trials are needed to establish clear guidelines for testosterone therapy in women, given the lack of FDA-approved formulations and the variable quality of current treatments.

This review discusses the cardiovascular risks and events associated with anabolic-androgenic steroid use, suggesting the need for further research on some effects.

This study found that low-dose oral minoxidil was more effective than topical minoxidil in increasing hair density and patient satisfaction among men with androgenetic alopecia, with fewer local side effects and better compliance reported over six months.

This study found that exosome therapy led to significantly better hair regrowth and patient satisfaction than platelet-rich plasma in men with androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, researchers developed a new method called Enriched-GF, which enhances growth factor recovery from platelet concentrates through a combination of glass bead activation, freeze-thaw cycling, and calcium stimulation, outperforming conventional methods by providing higher and more consistent yields for regenerative medicine applications.

In this case study, ischemic stroke occurred in a 20-year-old male taking finasteride for hair loss, with multiple genetic predispositions for thrombosis; while causality is uncertain, clinicians should exercise caution when prescribing finasteride to patients with thrombotic risk factors.

This review highlights that exosomes from adipose-derived stem cells, particularly those enriched with circ-Ash1l, can inhibit ferroptosis and reduce UVB-induced skin aging by delivering GPX4-promoting signals to damaged cells, thus offering a potential regenerative therapy for photoaged skin.
