This case report describes two boys with Danon disease, initially misdiagnosed due to increased transaminases, who exhibited cardiac issues and muscle pseudohypertrophy.

Adding 2% glycerin or hyaluronic acid to permanent wave treatments reduces hair damage, with hyaluronic acid being more effective.

This study found that non-daily use of Dutasteride may be more cost-effective and associated with lower cancer incidence than daily use for patients seeking treatment for lower urinary tract symptoms.

About 17% of people in France have dandruff, and those with dandruff are more likely to have sensitive and itchy scalps.

This study found that a conditioner containing 18-MEA and SPDA can improve hair's smoothness and reduce flyaways, enhancing hair manageability.

Hair relaxers are linked to reduced cystine levels and potential hair damage.

This study found that while 11-oxyandrogens are linked to excess hair growth, they do not aid in diagnosing PCOS and require further research to determine their clinical utility.

This study found that bitter melon leaf extract, particularly at a 10% concentration, promoted hair growth in male rabbits, outperforming the effect of a 2% minoxidil solution.

Hair can show daily calcium changes, linked to body calcium levels and influenced by hormones, and can help assess calcium metabolism issues.

This article honors Damkerng Pathomvanich, MD, for his contributions to donor area harvesting, Asian hair, and advancing hair restoration in Thailand and reports no new research findings.

This study concluded that a combination of millet seed extract, L-cystine, and calcium pantothenate may improve anagen hair rate in women with androgenetic alopecia over six months.

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.

In this animal study, finasteride exposure led to impaired spermatogenesis in rats, while the novel compound DA-9401, derived from three medicinal herbs, demonstrated potential in improving sperm parameters and reducing testicular apoptosis when used alone or with finasteride.

This study found that Finasteride at doses of 5 mg or higher may reduce the expression of key spermatogenesis biomarkers, potentially impacting male fertility in mice.

In this study, Chinese comprehensive therapy was found to effectively improve symptoms and promote hair growth in individuals with androgenetic alopecia of a specific traditional Chinese medicine pattern.

5% minoxidil foam used once daily is as effective as 2% minoxidil solution used twice daily for hair loss in women, but with fewer side effects like itching and dandruff.

This study found that after 12 months, the combination of shengfa tincture and dangui kushen pills was more effective and had fewer adverse effects for treating androgenetic alopecia compared to shengfa tincture alone.

This study found that measuring 24-OHase induction by 1,25(OH)2D3 in cultured skin fibroblasts is a sensitive test for detecting genetic defects in the 1,25(OH)2D effector pathway.

This review discusses the molecular role of the vitamin D receptor in regulating various biological actions such as bone mineralization and reports no new clinical results, highlighting the complexity of vitamin D's function in multiple tissues.

This minireview discusses a proposed model of the vitamin D receptor that explains how 1alpha,25(OH)2D3 can mediate both genomic and rapid responses through different ligand shapes and cellular locations, without presenting new research findings.

This study found that the circadian clock in mouse skin regulates cell proliferation and affects sensitivity to UVB-induced DNA damage, with potential implications for understanding human skin cancer risk.

This study found that PM2.5 exposure induced oxidative stress in human keratinocytes and mouse skin, causing cellular damage, which was mitigated by the antioxidant N-acetyl cysteine.

This study found that oxidative stress in hair follicle melanocytes contributes to premature aging and apoptosis, providing insights into graying as a model for studying aging and testing antiaging therapies.

This study found that sulforaphane-rich broccoli sprout extracts reduced UV-induced erythema by 37.7% in humans, suggesting a protective strategy against UVR damage.

This review discusses the protective effects and mechanisms of melatonin in skin and suggests potential therapeutic applications in cutaneous medicine, reporting no new clinical findings.

Adequate vitamin D is crucial for skin health and should be considered in dermatology.

This study found that young indigenous South Asian women with polycystic ovary syndrome are more likely to be centrally obese and have metabolic syndrome, particularly with increasing age, higher BMI, and acanthosis nigricans.

This study found that chronic ultraviolet-B exposure increased skin vascularization and wrinkle formation in mice, while overexpressing the angiogenesis inhibitor thrombospondin-1 reduced these effects, suggesting angiogenesis inhibition as a potential approach to prevent photo-damage.

This review discusses the adverse effects of 5α-reductase inhibitors, finasteride and dutasteride, on sexual, psychological, and vascular health, emphasizing the need for physicians to inform patients of these risks.
