This review offers transgender hormone treatment guidelines to assist healthcare providers in improving transgender patients' access to and outcomes of medical care, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that overexpression of Hoxc13 in GC13 mouse models affects hair follicle differentiation by interacting with medulla-specific genes, particularly Foxq1, suggesting a regulatory pathway for medulla differentiation.

This meta-analysis suggests that local injection of platelet-rich plasma for androgenic alopecia is associated with an increased number of hairs and some increase in hair thickness, though larger studies are needed for confirmation.

This study identified 63 genetic loci associated with male-pattern baldness, uncovering genes and pathways that may help develop treatments and suggesting its connection to other human conditions.

The p53 protein has complex, sometimes contradictory functions, including tumor suppression and promoting cell survival.

This study found that women with PCOS reported higher overall psychological distress, but there was no significant link between their perceived hirsutism and this distress.

This study concluded that combined hormonal contraceptives containing desogestrel, drospirenone, or cyproterone acetate were associated with a higher risk of venous thromboembolism compared to those containing levonorgestrel.

This article reviews the use of finasteride for treating male pattern hair loss, highlighting its mechanism of action in reducing DHT and noting its safety profile with some common adverse effects.

The researchers found that inhibiting soluble epoxide hydrolase, either genetically or pharmacologically, delayed the onset of chemically induced seizures related to GABA antagonism in experimental models.

This review discusses the dermatological adverse events from immunosuppressive and anti-TNF therapy in IBD, finding increased risks of non-melanoma skin cancer and other skin conditions, and recommends regular cancer screening.

This review discusses the complex causes and treatment challenges of chronic inflammatory skin diseases, emphasizing the need for biomarkers to predict treatment responses; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found a strong dose-related increase in the risk of intracranial meningiomas associated with high doses of cyproterone acetate, with some reduction in risk after stopping the treatment.

This study suggests that cerebrospinal fluid levels of the neurosteroids allopregnanolone and pregnanolone correlate negatively with PTSD and negative mood symptoms, with potential sex-specific differences in synthesis enzyme blocks.

This paper discusses the variability in COVID-19 susceptibility and severity, emphasizing factors like biological differences and suggesting potential precision medicine approaches, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that male pattern baldness in European males is strongly heritable and associated with genetic markers linked to earlier puberty, bone density, and pancreatic function.

This study successfully developed a reproducible mouse model demonstrating fetal scarless wound healing, which may provide insights for minimizing scarring in adults.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma significantly increased hair count, density, and the percentage of anagen hairs in patients with androgenetic alopecia, but these improvements did not correlate with platelet or growth factor levels.

This review discusses the varied use and inconsistent reporting of platelet rich plasma in aesthetic surgery, finding that current studies lack consistent methodologies and objective evidence, and reports no new clinical results.

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 review discusses feline dermatophytosis and emphasizes the importance of early detection and appropriate treatment, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses recent data on the use of anabolic-androgenic steroids and other steroid compounds and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that tofacitinib shows reasonable effectiveness for treating alopecia areata with mild adverse effects, although more large-scale randomized trials are needed to fully assess its safety and efficacy.

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 found that participant self-assessments suggested greater improvement in the texture and wrinkles of facial skin treated with PRP compared to normal saline, though dermatologist ratings showed no significant difference.

This review examines androgen replacement therapy in women for treating androgen deficiency symptoms and reports no new clinical results, while noting potential safety within a specific dose range.

This study found that four days of simulated night shift work in healthy adults reduced insulin sensitivity, suggesting a potential increased risk of type 2 diabetes.

This study found that longer exposure to 5α-reductase inhibitors significantly increased the risk of persistent erectile dysfunction, especially in younger men exposed to finasteride.

This study found no evidence of androgen deficiency or decreased peripheral androgen action in men with persistent sexual symptoms after finasteride use, but identified links to depressed mood and abnormal brain function.

This study found that only eumenorrheic polycystic ovary syndrome patients showed a temporal coupling between kisspeptin and luteinizing hormone pulsatile secretions.

This review discusses the relationship between psoriasis and autoimmunity, focusing on autoimmune co-morbidities, but reports no new research findings.
