This study suggests that sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors, alone or with metformin or GLP1RA, may improve metabolic and hormonal parameters in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

This study examined the preservative and antimicrobial susceptibility of non-fermenting bacilli collected from beauty salon waste in Brazil.

This study reported that the PTGER2 gene is strongly expressed in cashmere goat skin and its expression tends to decrease from the anagen to telogen stages of the hair follicle cycle.

This study found that multiple treatments combining NIR laser phototherapy with ICG significantly reduced inflammation and improved skin condition in acne without side effects.

This review concluded that baricitinib and other oral JAK inhibitors have the most robust evidence supporting their use in treating severe alopecia areata in adults, compared to other less-evaluated treatments.

This review evaluates laboratory models used in androgenetic alopecia research but reports no new findings, emphasizing the potential of human-derived 3-D models for future studies.

This research re-analyzed single-cell gene expression data from a mouse model, confirming that certain genes involved in the EDA-EDAR and WNT pathways are crucial for skin appendage development, suggesting that their restoration may mitigate the effects of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in children.

In this study, autologous platelet concentrates and topical steroids similarly reduced lesion size, Thongprasom scale, and pain in oral lichen planus patients, suggesting autologous platelet concentrates as a potential alternative treatment.

This review explores the efficacy and safety of treatments for dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, revealing a predominance of case reports and series, and concludes that randomized controlled trials are needed for better evidence-based therapies.

In this study, researchers found that 24.7% of female medical students were diagnosed with PCOS, significantly affecting their academic success and social interactions due to symptoms like BMI abnormalities and acne, suggesting that educators should enhance support and awareness to address these challenges.

This study suggests that scalp massage may reduce stress, as indicated by decreased salivary cortisol and increased secretory immunoglobulin A, and improve comfort by reducing physical fatigue and negative emotions.

This paper presents an RGB video microscopic system to monitor optical properties of hair shafts and follicles in vitro, but reports no new clinical results.

In this article, the authors describe a successfully treated case of a newborn with ichthyosis using a neonatal protocol involving an incubator with controlled temperature and humidity, sepsis prevention, eye protection, and emollient care without keratolytics during the early neonatal period.

This study discusses how polynucleotide-based cosmetic products can improve aging skin in patients with particular morphotypes by restoring cellular metabolism, enhancing microcirculation, and promoting intracellular matrix remodeling, offering potential benefits for reversing chrono- and photo-aging and aiding tissue recovery after cosmetic or surgical procedures.

This study highlights the underexplored allergenic potential of Trichophyton rubrum, a dermatophyte, which can trigger IgE-mediated allergic reactions and a Th2 immune response shift, underscoring the need for its inclusion in diagnostic panels and further research for treating chronic mycoses and related allergies.

This study conducted among sex workers in Kostanay reported a low HIV prevalence of 0.8% but a high syphilis rate of 15.6%, highlighting significant social risks and emphasizing the need to expand pre-exposure prophylaxis and prevention programs.

This study found no statistically significant protective effect of antioxidant therapy against acute mountain sickness, though results were inconclusive due to limited data and methodological variability.

This study found that acupuncture may reduce anxiety and depression in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, potentially through hormonal and neuroendocrine modulation, but further high-quality research is needed to confirm these findings.

This systematic review found significant associations between skin disorders like polycystic ovarian syndrome, dermatomyositis, atopic dermatitis, and leprosy with infertility, noting a lack of significant findings for systemic sclerosis.

In this study, prenatal ultrasonography was found to be a valuable tool for screening ectodermal dysplasia during pregnancy, and a new EDA gene variant associated with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia was identified, aiding in more accurate diagnoses and reproductive decision-making.

This meta-analysis found that patients with alopecia areata, particularly those with more extensive forms like alopecia totalis and universalis, may face a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, though no links were found with specific conditions like ischemic stroke or myocardial infarction.

In this animal study, hibiscus leaf simplicia ointment was found to protect red blood cell levels and promote better hair growth in UV-exposed rats, though it did not maintain normal skin histology; the ointment showed no significant acute dermal toxicity.

Among adult male rats, this study found that combined exposure to lithium carbonate and lead acetate over 28 days led to synergistic cardiotoxic effects, evidenced by oxidative stress, ECG abnormalities, and molecular markers of increased apoptosis, despite no observable structural damage to myocardial tissue.

In this animal study, funnel seed extract significantly reduced insulin and testosterone levels and increased ovulating hormones in rats with induced polycystic ovarian syndrome, suggesting potential hormone-regulating properties.

In this study, researchers found that the synthetic stress hormone dexamethasone caused opposite effects on hair growth-related proteins, reducing SFRP2 and increasing SFRP3, which respectively stimulate and inhibit hair follicle cell proliferation in human dermal papilla cells.

This study found that while pro-, pre-, and synbiotics may have beneficial effects on certain PCOS-related outcomes, the certainty of this evidence is low to very low.

This review found an increased prevalence of common skin disorders, such as infectious and inflammatory conditions, in patients with Down syndrome and highlighted the need for improved screening and management guidelines.

The review discusses the diverse roles of WNT10B in mammary gland development, immune function, and its potential implications in cancer and regenerative processes, with no new experimental results.

This meta-analysis found that autologous cell-based therapies, especially stromal vascular fraction, significantly improved atrophic acne scars over control treatments, enhancing both clinical and patient-reported outcomes.

This systematic review found that exosome-based therapies significantly improve skin elasticity, reduce wrinkle depth, enhance hydration, and modulate pigmentation, with minimal adverse events reported across multiple studies. However, further clinical trials are necessary to confirm long-term efficacy and safety.
