In this systematic review, animal studies showed that cytarabine causes multi-organ toxicities, notably neurotoxicity, linked to oxidative stress and other mechanisms, though study quality raises concerns about reliability and translation to human outcomes.

This study successfully synthesized novel cercidin analogues from Cercidophyllum japonicum, confirming their structure via NMR data. The researchers suggest these compounds could facilitate future antibiotic development by advancing structure-activity-relationship studies.

This study found that combined hormonal contraceptives containing ethenyl estradiol and cyproterone acetate improved acne, hirsutism, menstrual irregularity, and dysmenorrhea in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome, with most participants showing significant symptom improvement after 6 to 12 months.

Histopathology is crucial for accurately diagnosing eruptive vellus hair cysts.

This case report highlights a rare instance of esophageal carcinoma in a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, emphasizing the importance of endoscopic surveillance for malignant gastrointestinal tumors in these patients.

In this case report, an 18-year-old male's cheek lump initially diagnosed as a sebaceous cyst was found to be a pilomatrixoma after surgical excision and histopathological examination.

In this case study, a 44-year-old woman with an adrenal adenoma secreting both cortisol and androgens developed Cushing syndrome and significant virilization, but experienced major symptom improvement following surgical removal of the benign tumor.

This article reports a case of trichothiodystrophy in a 7-year-old girl with sulfur deficiency in her hair, characterized by sparse, slow-growing hair and distinctive tiger tail banding under microscopy.

This report describes a clinical case of a 38-year-old man diagnosed with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome, confirmed by genetic testing, highlighting the presentation of multiple renal tumors and bilateral lung cysts.

In this case study, long-term treatment with acitretin significantly improved chronic skin conditions like erythematosquamous plaques and follicular hyperkeratoses in a patient, but stopping the treatment led to severe worsening of symptoms.

This article discusses the issues with the name "polycystic ovary syndrome" and proposes a new naming system to better reflect the condition's complex hormonal and metabolic abnormalities.

This review reports that the unique tunnel structures in advanced hidradenitis suppurativa impair quality of life and resist biological therapy, with their formation involving complex cellular and molecular interactions, including microbial dysbiosis, all contributing to ongoing inflammation and scarring.

This study found that the petroleum ether extract of Citrullus colocynthis fruit and an isolated steroidal compound may reduce prostatic hyperplasia in rats induced by testosterone, suggesting potential use in managing androgen-dependent conditions.

This review discusses the role of corneodesmosin in skin and hair follicle integrity, with mentions of its link to hypotrichosis simplex and peeling skin disease, and reports no new results.

This review discusses diagnostic criteria, phenotypes, and therapies for polycystic ovarian syndrome, emphasizing an individualized treatment approach based on the multifactorial nature of the disease; it reports no clinical results.

This review discusses the role of oxidative stress in polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the importance of understanding these mechanisms for prevention and treatment strategies.

This study suggests that finasteride-loaded polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan microspheres could be a promising embolic agent for benign prostatic hyperplasia, showing effective occlusion and sustained drug release in preclinical models.

This case report details a 10-year-old boy diagnosed with kerion celsi caused by Microsporum gypseum, successfully treated with itraconazole over 4.5 months.

This study identified two evolutionarily conserved ultra-high-sulfur keratin proteins in human and sheep hair follicles, which are specifically expressed in the hair cuticle during the late stages of fiber development.

This report describes a rare case of cyclophosphamide-associated neutrophilic folliculitis, suggesting its inclusion in differential diagnoses for acneiform eruptions.

This study found that trichothiodystrophy can be diagnosed prenatally in the second trimester using an endoscopically-guided fetal eyebrow biopsy, with sulfur content analysis being the most reliable test.

This study reviews the role of the zinc finger protein CXXC5 in cellular signaling and its implications for cancer, discussing how its dysregulation is linked to various physiological and pathological processes, as well as potential therapies targeting CXXC5.

This case report presents a 60-year-old woman with virilization and elevated adrenal androgens, where a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy confirmed ovarian steroid cell tumor NOS, and her symptoms resolved post-operatively.

This case report describes an extremely rare instance of seminoma in an adult with SRY-negative 46,XX testicular disorder of sex development, uniquely presenting as acute abdomen due to gonadal torsion.

This narrative review suggests that nanoformulated phytochemicals hold promise for managing polycystic ovarian syndrome, but their efficacy and safety compared to standard treatments require further validation through clinical studies.

Three related Persian cats have a rare, likely hereditary skin condition causing hair loss and poor coat quality, with limited treatment options.

This study found that cefazolin-loaded silica nanoparticles embedded in polycaprolactone nanofibers successfully inhibited Staphylococcus aureus growth while maintaining stem cell viability, suggesting their potential use in wound healing.

This study found that deoxycholic acid effectively reduces excess fat under the chin, showing significant volume reduction and increased patient satisfaction in both aesthetic improvements and recovery experiences among the 13 participants.

In this case study, a 78-year-old Japanese woman with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome experienced mesenteric lymphadenopathy, which reduced in size after treatment with the corticosteroid prednisolone. This suggests that mesenteric lymphadenopathy, though uncommon in CCS, may respond to steroid therapy.
