This study found that nano-sized lipid particles improved the skin accumulation and retention of dexamethasone compared to a base cream, suggesting potential benefits for inflammatory skin disease treatment.

This review discusses cross-sex hormone therapy for managing gender dysphoria in transsexual individuals and reports no new clinical results; it highlights the need for education and culturally sensitive training for healthcare professionals.

This study found that early-onset baldness in African-American men is associated with an increased risk of developing prostate cancer and more aggressive tumors, with potential interactions involving age and smoking.

This review discusses the potential uses of 5α-reductase inhibitors for conditions ranging from benign prostatic hyperplasia to skin disorders like acne and male pattern baldness, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review found that despite varied levels of stigmatization reported in studies, hair loss generally leads to stigmatization and a reduced quality of life, but specific research on this stigma is limited.

This study suggests that moderate elevated prolactin levels are unlikely to cause significant hair loss in women, but still warrant further diagnostic investigation to rule out a prolactin-producing pituitary tumor.

In this scoping review, researchers found that while some dietary approaches may help improve psoriasis symptoms—particularly in those with obesity or coeliac disease—the overall evidence is limited, and larger studies are necessary to identify effective diets for the broader psoriasis population.

This study found that increased ovarian volume is associated with markers of insulin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, while follicle number was not linked to metabolic risk.

This review highlights that transferosomes, or ultradeformable lipids, show promise for improving dermal delivery, exhibiting efficient drug transport across the skin's barrier and offering potential benefits for treating chronic skin disorders with better bioavailability.

This study observed that using serial sectioning and d-PAS staining improved detection of Malassezia folliculitis, notably in lesions on the trunks of male patients.

In this study, mange lesions with alopecia and crusts in masked palm civets in Japan were caused by the mite Notoedres cati.

This article provides a guide for surgeons on repairing poorly executed hair transplants, emphasizing meticulous techniques and optimal use of limited hair supply to achieve cosmetic improvements.

This study found that a serum-free DMEM-F12 medium with 45% oxygen best supports in vitro development and differentiation of human fetal skin, closely mimicking the in vivo state.

This study found that micro-current electrical stimulation may promote hair growth in human hair follicle-derived papilla cells and a mice model by enhancing cell proliferation, migration, and activating key growth pathways.

This study analyzed patch test results to identify allergens causing scalp contact dermatitis, finding nickel, cobalt, and balsam of Peru among the most common in the patient population.

In this study, trichoscopic features aiding differential diagnosis of alopecia in Korean patients were found to be similar to those in Caucasians, but pigment pattern frequencies differed due to racial characteristics.

This study reports an increased frequency of the DI genotype of the ACE gene polymorphism among women with PCOS, notably in those with hyperandrogenism, and an association of the II genotype with insulin resistance.

This abstract does not contain research results or findings.

This review discusses the clinical features, genetics, and treatment of 21-hydroxylase deficiency, a common type of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and reports no new research findings.

In this publication, a collaborative group reviewed the role of dermocosmetics in cancer care and formulated recommendations for using these products to manage skin toxicities and minimize treatment interruptions associated with cancer therapies.

In this review, the authors discuss the potential for cell therapy, such as hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and mesenchymal stromal cells, to treat severe psoriasis unresponsive to biological therapies, while highlighting the associated risks, costs, and regulatory challenges.

This review discusses common skin eruptions caused by biologics in treating inflammatory bowel disease and proposes tailored therapeutic approaches for managing these adverse reactions.

In this study of women with polycystic ovary syndrome, insulin resistance was associated with obesity, waist circumference, lipid accumulation, and hypertension, with no significant difference in prevalence between different diagnostic methods.

This review identifies FDA-cleared home-use photobiomodulation devices for androgenetic alopecia treatment and highlights their excellent safety profile but notes the lack of long-term comparative studies.

This review discusses the effects of pregnancy on melanocytic nevi and reports no new clinical results; it suggests that changing nevi during pregnancy should be evaluated similarly to those in nonpregnant patients.

This study describes the development of polyamide 6 composite fibers with amber filler, finding them suitable for use in medical textiles such as compression garments due to their biocompatibility with skin cells.

This review discusses sexual dysfunction as a side effect of α-blockers and 5-ARIs for BPH/LUTS, highlighting methodological flaws in existing studies and the need for more rigorous research.

This study indicates that targeting the PTH/PTHrP receptor may potentially stimulate hair growth, particularly for chemotherapy-induced alopecia, as observed in hairless and cyclophosphamide-treated mice.

This paper explores the social challenges individuals with medical hair loss face when using wigs, highlighting the complex identity management involved and the social obligations to disclose wig use to close ones.

This study found that male androgenic alopecia patients using the X5 hair laser device showed a statistically significant increase in hair growth over a 26-week period.
