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.

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.

This review suggests that induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) hold promise for treating chronic wounds, but further work is needed to address safety, efficacy, and translation from preclinical models to real-world applications.

This study synthesizes knowledge of how dendritic cell signals, epithelial integrins, and fibroblast activity converge on TGF-β1 to maintain or disrupt skin healing, contrasting normal and fibrotic scar formation and suggesting possible integrin and immune-targeted treatments for skin fibrosis.

In this study, researchers identified six novel prognostic biomarkers for bladder cancer and developed a predictive model that effectively stratifies patients into high-risk and low-risk groups based on immune cell infiltration differences and gene expression.

This review highlights the potential of ultrasound-assisted gene therapy for tissue regeneration by improving gene delivery efficiency through techniques like microbubble-mediated sonoporation. The authors discuss its applications in musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and neural regeneration, while addressing future challenges in optimizing this non-invasive approach for clinical applications.

This study reports that despite advancements in tissue engineering and biomaterials, translating laboratory findings into effective clinical treatments for urethral reconstruction remains inadequate due to lack of standardization and short clinical trial follow-ups.

This paper outlines the clinical features of artefactual skin disorder, emphasizing the complexities in diagnosing the self-inflicted lesions that patients deny, and underscores the importance of integrating dermatological, psychiatric, and psychological treatment approaches.

This review discusses the insights gained from single-cell RNA sequencing of fibroblasts in various cancers and wound healing, highlighting differences in gene expression and novel interactions.

Men with early balding should be checked for metabolic syndrome, as there's a link between the two.

This article discusses topics presented at the Canadian Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery 41st Annual Meeting and reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, the authors describe a new technique using the Ventralex hernia patch for simultaneous umbilical hernia repair during abdominoplasty, observing its application in 11 female patients.

This article discusses the development of an interactive workbook by OCCAM to help cancer patients communicate their use of complementary and alternative medicine with healthcare providers and reports no clinical results.

This article reviews the relationship between the skin and the immune system and discusses how skin manifestations can indicate immunodeficiencies but reports no new research findings.

This case study details the progression of a woman's skin conditions, initially diagnosed as acanthosis nigricans and later as mycosis fungoides, with changes in lesion characteristics and distribution over time.

This review concluded that corticosteroids improve muscle strength and function in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy over short-term periods, but evidence on prolonging walking ability remains insufficient, and side effects are common.

This review discusses the role of TGF-β signaling in stem cell recruitment and tissue regeneration, indicating that abnormalities in TGF-β activation contribute to various major diseases and suggesting avenues for therapeutic intervention.

This article discusses the long-standing use and safety of opioids in anaesthesia, noting that respiratory depression is a manageable side effect due to the availability of opioid antagonists.

In this study, researchers identified novel LMNA mutations in patients with atypical progeroid syndrome, revealing clinical features distinct from other similar disorders, but unrelated to mutant prelamin A accumulation.

Graft-versus-host disease is a complication where donor immune cells attack the recipient's body, often affecting the skin, liver, and gastrointestinal tract.
