Lotion with piroctone olamine and triclosan improves hair loss in men.

This review examines the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of dermatophytosis (ringworm) in dogs and cats, highlighting the role of Microsporum canis and the public health implications of zoophilic dermatophytes, affecting roughly 20-25% of the global population.

This research observed that triamcinolone was more effective at inducing remission in cats with pemphigus foliaceus without significant side effects compared to prednisone or its combination with chlorambucil.

In this case report, a 2.5-year-old cat with scabies and bacterial pneumonia showed significant improvement in symptoms and hair regrowth following a treatment regimen including ivermectin, amoxicillin with clavulanic acid, diphenhydramine, methylprednisolone, and supportive therapies over 100 days.

This review discusses the challenges in diagnosing tinea capitis and highlights the need for laboratory confirmation and systemic treatment due to the limited effectiveness of topical antifungals; no new clinical results are presented.

This study suggests that topical Cyclosporin A formulations, with or without a penetration enhancer, effectively stimulated hair regrowth in a rat model of alopecia areata.

This case report describes a 5-year-old girl who developed kerion celsi from an untreated scalp infection, likely contracted from a guinea pig, leading to significant hair loss and the need for a wig.

This study developed and validated a micellar electrokinetic chromatography method to determine finasteride stability, finding that the drug degrades under acidic, basic, and oxidative stress conditions.

This study found that alkaloids isolated from Cucumis metuliferus fruit pulp demonstrated antiviral activity against IBDV in chicken embryo fibroblast cells and NDV in 10-day-old embryonated chicken eggs, while being non-cytotoxic.

In this study, researchers developed a carboxylated β-cyclodextrin formulation to enhance finasteride's physicochemical properties, achieving an encapsulation efficiency of about 85% and indicating potential for controlled drug release in therapeutic applications. Their findings suggest this inclusion complex could improve delivery of hydrophobic drugs like finasteride.

This study found that seed oil of Caragana korshinskii demonstrated high antifungal efficacy against Trichophyton mentagrophytes in an in vivo guinea pig model of dermatophytosis.

Diphencyprone treatment protocols could be simplified as no harm occurred despite not fully following them.

This study found that several synthesized compounds were potent inhibitors of human steroid 5alpha-reductase type 2 and reduced prostate weights in treated rats, with compound 15 showing promise for potency in humans.

This study found that topical clobetasol propionate cream was more effective than hydrocortisone cream in reducing hair loss surface area in children with patchy alopecia areata over 24 weeks, with no serious adverse effects.

This article describes the efficient synthesis of (S)-N-(2-bromo-6-methoxypyridin-4-yl)-2-hydroxy-2,4-dimethylpentanamide, a novel topical antiandrogen, with high purity and enantiomeric excess but reports no pharmacological results.

This study investigated the integration of crystal engineering and microneedle technology for androgenetic alopecia treatment, finding that microneedles loaded with newly developed Kopexil multicomponent crystals reduced drug diffusion rates in vitro compared to standard formulations.

This article reviews the discovery and various physiological effects of cyproterone acetate, reporting its established indications for several androgen-driven conditions but providing no new clinical data.

In this case study, the researchers diagnosed a young male cat with dermatitis caused by a fungal infection, specifically identifying Penicillium and Aspergillus species, and observed improvement in symptoms following a two-week treatment with grisofulvin, chlorphenamine maleate, and fish oil shampoo.

This case report describes an 18-year-old male with kerion celsi from Trichophyton tonsurans infection whose condition improved with terbinafine treatment, and highlights that although IL-17A expression increased in skin lesions, it was associated with disrupted antimicrobial peptide expression and severe inflammation, causing tissue damage.

This study found that using a zinc pyrithione-containing hair rinse significantly reduced dandruff and itching, with effects linked to the amount of zinc pyrithione residue on the hair.

This study aimed to develop a new transdermal patch for treating androgenetic alopecia using finasteride, combined with chemical permeation enhancers to improve drug delivery through the skin, but results of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics evaluations are not reported.

In this study, 22 pet rabbits with symptoms of itching and hair loss were found to have mite infestations, which were successfully treated with a combination of medications including ivermectin, resulting in recovery within 45 days.

This study highlights the challenges in treating Microsporum canis infections due to variable antifungal drug efficacy and potential resistance, emphasizing the need for standardized methods to assess drug susceptibility.

This article reviews existing treatments for hypertrichosis and hirsutism, noting that while eflornithine is a promising new option, the efficacy of systemic antiandrogens remains unproven in modern clinical studies.

This study reported that a new sulfur paste formulation with added plant extract and propolis effectively treated scabies in rabbits by promoting rapid tissue regeneration, hair growth, and eliminating secondary infections, offering a more affordable and less irritating alternative to commercial treatments.

This study compared shampoos and found that shampoo D, containing polyquaternium-10, guar gum, and dimethicone, was most effective in restoring chemically permed hair.

This study found that three mousse products containing chlorhexidine and varying antifungal components maintained significant antibacterial activity against S. pseudintermedius in vitro for up to 10 days, while other mousses did not show significant differences.
