This study observed that while dexamethasone-cyclophosphamide pulse therapy is relatively free from hypertension and diabetes compared to conventional steroids in pemphigus patients, it frequently causes generalized weakness and flushing.

This review highlights the pharmaceutical potential of secondary metabolites from Juniperus species, noting promising antitumor, antibacterial, and antiviral activities, but reports no new experimental findings.

Minoxidil lowers blood pressure in kids with kidney issues, but use carefully due to side effects.

In this study, spironolactone treatment reduced hair growth in 17 out of 30 patients with hirsutism, but was less effective compared to cyproterone acetate–estrogen therapy.

This study reports that new compounds with anti-androgenic effects were found to counteract testosterone in animals without significant estrogenic activity, indicating potential for managing androgen-related conditions.

This study reviews existing literature on botanicals for androgenetic alopecia, noting a growing interest and emphasizing research on hair growth stimulants, especially involving green tea and other specific botanicals.

This study found that in women with PCOS, suppressive therapy using spironolactone plus oral contraceptives improved hirsutism more effectively than either treatment alone, with initial scores predicting success.

This study established a rapid and accurate ultra-performance liquid chromatographic method for chemical fingerprinting and analyzing Platycladi cacumen, effectively distinguishing batches based on geographical and climatic conditions.

This case report describes a patient with eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome who experienced severe, persistent telogen effluvium.

In this study, Leonuri Herba alkaloids significantly reduced prostate hyperplasia indicators and improved urinary parameters in hormone-induced model rats.

This report discusses a rare case of polypoid cystitis in a 45-year-old Asian man, which mimicked a bladder tumor and caused bilateral upper tract obstruction that was successfully treated through staged endoscopic management, ureteral stenting, and oral steroids.

This study proposed a simple, rapid permanganometric method for determining minoxidil concentrations in pharmaceutical samples, offering comparable accuracy to chromatographic methods with recovery rates of 94.5 to 95.2%.

The study highlights Teak's (Tectona grandis) diverse applications beyond high-quality timber, emphasizing its bioactive compounds' pharmacological potential in cancer treatment and other uses across traditional medicine, cosmetics, and biodiesel production.

This study identified Armillaria gallica and Armillaria cepistipes as the most common symbiotic species with Polyporus umbellatus in China, and reported genetic diversity among their genotypes.

In this study, high doses of Lepidium sativum seeds extract were reported to cause toxicity and tissue damage in animals, suggesting the need for careful use under medical supervision.

This article reviews the traditional uses of Citrullus colocynthis for various conditions like cancer and jaundice but reports no new clinical results, underscoring its role in folk medicine.

This chapter reviews current and emerging pharmacological treatments for alopecia, noting that the FDA's classification of alopecia as a cosmetic disease has limited drug development and led to off-label use of potentially dangerous compounds.

In this review, the authors examined the bioactive compounds in rosemary, noting its potential anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, wound-healing, and anticancer activities, and highlighted its use in traditional medicine and cosmetics for conditions such as aging, baldness, and sun damage.
