This study observed that short-term administration of finasteride in male Wistar rats induced anxiety-like and depression-like behaviors, impaired spatial learning and memory, and reduced synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus, with a trend of increased corticosterone levels noted.

Among Chinese women, this study observed that hair density decreases and scalp erythema increases with age, with most aging features like hair diameter and sebum content peaking in their 40s.

This report highlights the successful treatment of skin and nail manifestations in a patient with primary hypothyroidism using levothyroxine, emphasizing the role of cutaneous symptoms in identifying thyroid disease.

This study found that testosterone and dihydrotestosterone are crucial for synaptic transmission and spine density in male hippocampal neurons, suggesting sex-specific effects of neurosteroids on brain development.

This narrative review found that Telogen Effluvium significantly affects women in Brazil due to its psychological impact and limited access to treatment, exacerbated by economic and healthcare disparities.

This case report from the study describes a dog suffering from dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum canis, presenting with alopecia on the neck and ear, illustrating the zoonotic risk of these fungal infections in both animals and humans, particularly in hot and humid climates.

This study observed that both intradermotherapy with 5% minoxidil and topical minoxidil application resulted in perceived improvements in hair density and thickness among patients with androgenetic alopecia, with no significant difference between the two groups.

This review discusses major advances in understanding inherited hair diseases through genetic research and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the potential for new preventive and therapeutic tools.

This study utilized a mouse model of traumatic brain injury to reveal that acute neurotrauma triggers widespread lipid metabolism reprogramming and storage lipid accumulation in microglial and monocyte populations, leading to lysosomal dysfunction, inhibited autophagy, and exacerbated inflammation through a pathological feedback loop.

This study identified numerous nutraceutical components in unripe fruits of three Musa species, potentially valuable for developing pharmaceuticals that promote human health.

This review discusses the range and causes of adipose tissue diseases, emphasizing genetic and acquired forms of lipodystrophy, but it reports no new clinical results.

PLLA injections can cause hair loss and skin issues.

In this multicenter study, adipose-derived stem cell-enriched fat grafting achieved higher satisfaction and better clinical outcomes compared to platelet-rich plasma and hyaluronic acid filler in aesthetic interventions.

This review highlights the ongoing need for novel treatments for autosomal recessive congenital ichthyoses, suggesting that drug repositioning, utilizing existing medications or biologics, could provide more affordable and effective options for managing this lifelong skin condition.

In this study, correlations between urinary and serum androgen metabolites were examined in girls aged 6-13, revealing that summed urinary metabolites strongly correspond with circulating androstenedione and testosterone levels, though individual variations depend on participant characteristics such as age and body measurements.

The document concludes that sex hormones are crucial for mammalian reproduction, health, and behavior, and require more research for therapeutic use.

In this case report, the researchers documented a rare instance of plica neuropathica, characterized by matted and twisted hair, occurring alongside diffuse alopecia, marking the first such documented association and emphasizing its diagnostic challenges in identifying causes of alopecia.

This case study reports that a 35-year-old woman developed nonscarring alopecia following the cosmetic use of poly-L-lactic acid on her face and hairline.

This study reports that the ingestion of a small amount of topical minoxidil by a child resulted in significant intoxication, suggesting the need for enhanced child-resistant packaging.

This study in a Pakistani family identified a novel ST14 gene variant as the likely genetic cause of autosomal recessive ichthyosis with hypotrichosis syndrome.

This study describes a family with loose anagen hair syndrome associated with macular dystrophy, suggesting this combination may represent a new disease entity among ectodermal dysplasias.

This study found that loss-of-function mutations in the HOXC13 gene cause autosomal-recessive pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia, emphasizing its role in hair and nail development.

This review discusses genetic causes and classification of rare, monogenic forms of alopecia and highlights the role of molecular genetic research in understanding hair loss mechanisms but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses managing common and notable adverse events associated with the antibody-drug conjugate trastuzumab deruxtecan in patients with HER2-positive unresectable/metastatic breast cancer and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that sacituzumab govitecan improved health-related quality of life in most areas for patients with HR+/HER2− metastatic breast cancer compared to chemotherapy, except for increased diarrhea, supporting its use as a treatment option.

This article reviews treatment options for female-pattern hair loss, noting the limited evidence for most therapies and emphasizing that topical minoxidil remains the only well-supported option despite a significant non-response rate.

This study found that trichoscopy is crucial for distinguishing lupus erythematosus-specific alopecia from alopecia areata, leading to more accurate diagnoses and better outcomes for patients.

This review examines male androgenetic alopecia and reports no new clinical results, offering insights to aid dermatologists in making informed therapeutic decisions.

In this study, the SRD5A2 rs523349 polymorphism was significantly associated with an increased risk of miscarriage, particularly during the second trimester.
