This study found that treating dogs with benign prostatic hyperplasia using osaterone acetate reduced prostatic volume and increased diffusion times of an ultrasound contrast agent, suggesting effective treatment and potential for CEUS monitoring.

This study explored the use of multiphoton microscopy to monitor changes in tumors and surrounding tissues in breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy, finding it may effectively detect treatment response at cellular levels without using exogenous contrast agents.

This review highlights the potential of herbal remedies as complementary options for breast cancer care, noting benefits like immune modulation and reduced chemotherapy side effects, in contrast to conventional treatments that often cause significant side effects and long-term health issues.

This study reports that microencapsulation of therapeutic cells with contrast agents enables visualization across multiple imaging modalities, potentially improving cellular immunoprotection and tracking after transplantation.

This article reviews various topics discussed at a workshop on hair disorders, focusing on hair biology, diagnosis, and challenges in therapy evaluation, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study found that intra-operative platelet-rich plasma therapy may enhance hair regrowth, increase graft density, and activate dormant follicles more effectively than normal saline in follicular unit extraction hair transplant patients.

This study found that topical hair lotions with 17 alpha-estradiol may reduce telogen hair loss in patients with androgenetic alopecia, though they did not lead to new hair regrowth.

In this study, photodynamic therapy was found to achieve permanent reduction of nonpigmented hair in mice, unlike an 800-nm diode laser, by targeting the hair matrix through repeated sessions.

The study found that combining a 655nm low-level laser helmet with 2% minoxidil resulted in better improvement in hair diameter and intermediate hair enlargement at the midscalp among Chinese women with FPHL.

This review discusses the implementation and mechanisms of photobiomodulation therapy in various medical fields, including ophthalmology, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that while kidney transplant recipients generally reported good quality of life on immunosuppressive therapies, women experienced more distressing symptoms and lower satisfaction compared to men.

This study observed that while PRP therapy increased inflammation and fibrosis in photoaged skin, ADSCs therapy showed promising antiaging effects by promoting elastin and fibrillin formation and remodeling the dermis.

This study found that corticosteroid pulse therapy may be more effective than oral cyclosporine with corticosteroid for patients with severe alopecia areata, especially for those with the plurifocal type or a short disease duration.

This study found that SCUBE3 protein is upregulated in various cancers, promoting tumor growth and poor outcomes, while suppressing growth in renal cell carcinoma, and may serve as a diagnostic marker and potential therapeutic target for several diseases due to its secreted nature.

This review discusses various plants and herbal formulations traditionally used for hair growth and notes their potential as safer alternatives to synthetic hair loss treatments, but reports no new clinical results.

Rare earth elements are crucial in medical imaging and cancer treatment.

This study found that long-term dutasteride therapy in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia worsened erectile dysfunction, reduced testosterone levels, and increased blood glucose and lipid profile, indicating negative metabolic impacts.

This study investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of a 940nm diode laser in Wistar rats with carrageenan-induced arthritis and found that a 74J/cm² energy density significantly reduced edema and restored function, whereas 171J/cm² neared thermal exposure limits for the skin.

This review evaluates recent advances from 2016 to 2022 in the use of microbubbles and nanobubbles, highlighting their potential for safer diagnostic and therapeutic applications in radiology and medicine without the side effects associated with traditional methods.

Chemotherapy can cause significant hair thinning and changes in hair texture, while tamoxifen has a smaller effect.

This study suggests that a portable OCT system may be useful for the clinical diagnosis and evaluation of skin diseases and laser treatment outcomes.

This study observed that long-term treatment with 5ARIs in men with LUTS/BPH was linked to worsening sexual function, whereas doxazosin alone had minimal negative impact.

This study found that using a contrast agent in Microbeam Radiation Therapy simulations increased the target dose but concluded that using a linear accelerator as an X-ray source did not preserve MRT advantages.

This paper reviews the role of androgens in SARS-CoV-2 infection and their potential impact on disease severity, suggesting androgen-targeting strategies might influence outcomes, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that nonionic liposomes were the most effective vehicle for delivering reporter genes into the skin of rat pups, compared to other liposome and nonliposome formulations.

This study at the Dzerkalo Medical Center found that complex therapy for abscessing perifolliculitis of the scalp is more effective in reducing inflammation and follicle destruction compared to basic antibacterial therapy, which was associated with relapses during long-term follow-up.

This study synthesizes current evidence showing that menopause involves a predictable endocrine transition, while male ageing features a more variable testosterone decline, necessitating a nuanced clinical approach to diagnosis and treatment.

This study provides an updated overview of non-scarring alopecia in lupus erythematosus patients, revealing that diffuse/patchy NSA and lupus hair are strongly associated with systemic activity and respond well to SLE therapy, while progression to scarring alopecia was rare.

This pilot study employed in-vivo multiphoton microscopy to visualize pigment-producing melanocytes in vitiligo patients, aiming to enhance understanding of treatment impacts and potentially improve transplantation therapies.

This study found that NB-002 demonstrated clear antifungal activity and clinically significant nail clearing in subjects with distal subungual onychomycosis and ≤50% nail involvement, compared to a vehicle treatment.
