In this descriptive study, researchers assessed the most common short-term side effects of anthracycline and taxane-based chemotherapy in 122 Moroccan women with localized breast cancer, documenting frequent systemic, gastrointestinal, dermatological, neurological, musculoskeletal, and ocular toxicities.

This study reported that nanoemulsions significantly improved the skin permeability of thiocolchicoside compared to its aqueous solution, suggesting they are effective carriers for its transdermal delivery.

In this study, the methanolic extract of Tridax procumbens Linn demonstrated significant antiulcer activity in a mice model of acetic acid-induced ulcerative colitis, offering 57.12% ulcer protection compared to 50.60% by the standard drug prednisolone.

This review outlines chlormadinone acetate's contraceptive and non-contraceptive applications but reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing its potential in treating dysmenorrhea and androgen-related conditions.

This study reports that two oral hormonal agents, dimethandrolone undecanoate and 11β-methylnortestosterone dodecylcarbonate, may effectively suppress hormones to contraceptive levels in men with mild side effects, though longer-term trials are required to confirm their safety and efficacy.

The estradiol valerate/dienogest oral contraceptive helps with heavy periods, may improve acne and symptoms in PCOS, and doesn't affect sexual function.

This study found that low-dose methotrexate significantly reduced the steroid requirement in subjects with corticosteroid-requiring asthma without altering their clinical status or causing significant complications.

This study found that costunolide promotes hair growth in both lab-cultured human hair follicle cells and in live mice by modulating growth factor pathways.

This study observed that testosterone combined with hormonal contraceptives elevated hormones like estrone and testosterone, altered coagulation factors, and increased sexual behavior frequency in female capuchin monkeys.

This study found that regular caffeine consumption among medical students is linked to a higher risk of insomnia, with around 30% to nearly 50% of those surveyed reporting sleep disorders, and highlights the importance of health education on caffeine's side effects.

This study used in silico analysis to identify 4-[2-(4-nitrophenyl)ethylcarbamoyl]benzenesulfonyl as a potential inhibitor of the EGFR mutant associated with NSCLC, highlighting the need for further in vitro and in vivo validation.

In patients undergoing treatment with capecitabine for colon cancer and metastatic breast cancer, this study observed that hand-foot syndrome occurred more frequently than with intravenous 5-FU, but other side effects were less common.

This study concluded that the pharmacy in Venâncio Aires complies with Good Manufacturing Practices, as significant microbial growth was only found in Paracetamol samples, while other materials showed no or insignificant growth.

This study found that oral contraceptives containing cyproterone acetate improved the overall quality of life in PCOS patients more than those containing levonorgestrel after 6 months of treatment.

This article discusses the mechanisms of hirsutism and acne in women, highlighting cyproterone acetate with ethinyloestradiol as an effective anti-androgen therapy in the UK, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that Dex-loaded hyaluronic acid hydrogel microneedles significantly reduced pain in an acute inflammatory visceral pain model without sedation, suggesting a promising and patient-friendly alternative to intravenous delivery.

This study demonstrates that pH-responsive nanogels designed with comb-like anionic polymers significantly improved oral delivery of the chemotherapy drug camptothecin, enhancing drug stability in acidic conditions and release in the intestines, with increased cellular uptake and cytotoxic effects against colorectal carcinoma cells.

In this study, Ocoxin used alongside chemotherapy may improve patients' tolerance to treatment and their quality of life without significant safety concerns, although further research is needed.

This study found that the solubilities of flutamide, dutasteride, and finasteride in supercritical carbon dioxide were effectively modeled using semiempirical equations by Chrastil and Bartle, with varying levels of accuracy.

This case report describes a 78-year-old patient whose orlistat treatment for obesity likely led to hepatotoxicity, which improved after the medication was discontinued.

This study reported a rare case where a pheochromocytoma produced ACTH, leading to cyclic Cushing syndrome, and underscores the importance of considering this possibility in cases of ACTH-dependent hypercortisolism with an adrenal mass.

This paper discusses various toxicological properties of diphenyl cresyl phosphate, highlighting its low acute toxicity, potential neurotoxicity linked to o-cresyl phosphate content, and the lack of data for inhalation exposure, but presents no new experimental findings.

Cyproterone helps women with hair loss caused by genetics. More research is needed to confirm the best dose.

This study found that paclitaxel poliglumex showed limited effectiveness and was relatively well tolerated in post-menopausal women with advanced NSCLC, suggesting further testing of this treatment may not be justified.

This study observed some differences in clinical outcomes when comparing CPA with spironolactone, flutamide, and finasteride, but no differences with other therapies, possibly due to small study size and non-standardized assessments; adverse effects could not be fully compared across treatments.

This study found that cedrol, administered orally, exhibited potential antiarthritic effects in rats by reducing inflammation, oxidative stress, and arthritis severity.

This study found that dexamethasone treatment inhibited the inflammatory response and the induction of ornithine decarboxylase activity in mouse skin after TPA application, although the effect on ODC was weaker during the hyperplastic stage.

This review updates dermatologists on both FDA-approved and off-label hormonal therapies, including combined oral contraceptives, clascoterone, and spironolactone, used for acne treatment, providing insights into emerging approaches for managing the condition.
