This review highlights that hyperandrogenism is a crucial factor for diagnosing PCOS during adolescence, while traditional criteria like polycystic ovarian morphology may be misleading.

This study demonstrated a significant association between high lipid accumulation product (LAP) and hirsutism in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

This integrative literature review reported that various topical and professional treatments for androgenetic alopecia generally provided satisfactory results for patients seeking to address hair loss.

This study concluded that 5% topical Minoxidil remains a first-line treatment for female androgenetic alopecia by increasing hair density and thickness, while low-dose oral Minoxidil and combination therapies may also be effective.

In this study, researchers found that YAP and TAZ, when localized in the nucleus of basal layer cells, are crucial for skin regeneration and hair growth, with their loss leading to slower cell proliferation, hair loss, and impaired wound healing in mice.

This study found that human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells promoted hair growth by advancing anagen onset and increasing hair follicle regeneration in an in vivo model.

This study found that using autologous adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction enriched with platelet-rich plasma may improve healing rates in patients undergoing flap repair for transsphincteric cryptoglandular fistulas.

This study found that corticosteroid pulse therapy may be more effective than oral cyclosporine with corticosteroid for patients with severe alopecia areata, especially for those with the plurifocal type or a short disease duration.

This study found that nanodiamonds of various sizes can penetrate different layers of murine skin in vitro, reaching hair follicle niches, and may be suitable for multimodal imaging applications.

This study reports that in women with non-tumor hyperandrogenism, a decrease in serum testosterone from insulin-sensitizing therapy like metformin may indicate a low likelihood of having an androgen-secreting tumor.

This study found an association between dispensed finasteride and an increased risk of male breast cancer, though uncertainties around confounding factors and potential biases suggest these results should be interpreted with caution.

This study found no evidence that finasteride use is associated with an increased risk of male breast cancer.

This study found that fluconazole was associated with telogen effluvium in both a rat model and human patients, although retinoic acid levels were not identified as a causal factor.

This study found that the epirubicin-docetaxel chemotherapy regimen for metastatic breast cancer resulted in a clinical response in 55% of patients, with maintained global quality of life despite some impairments.

This review discusses the patterns and regulatory mechanisms of keratin expression in various biological conditions and reports no new experimental results.

This case report and literature review describes a 27-year-old woman with a Sertoli Leydig cell tumor causing testosterone-related symptoms and highlights normalization of hormone levels after surgical treatment.

This study found notable differences in finasteride use among the Nordic countries, with higher prevalence in Finland and Sweden compared to Denmark and Norway.

This study reported that male baldness was not significantly linked to the severity of coronary artery disease, challenging previous studies suggesting such an association.

In this case study, an 8-day-old neonate with holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency showed dramatic improvement in lactic acidosis and overall clinical condition following biotin mega-dose therapy, highlighting the importance of early genetic testing and timely treatment in such metabolic disorders.

This review discusses recent advancements in bone tissue engineering, emphasizing a shift from passive to smart responsive antibacterial strategies to prevent implant-associated infections, and highlights AI's role in optimizing bone scaffold design for personalized, infection-free implants.

This case study highlights the importance of an integrated diagnostic and treatment approach for children with rare genetic disorders, as demonstrated in a 10-year-old girl with CNOT3 syndrome, characterized by symptoms like mental retardation, gastrointestinal issues, and unique facial features.

This case series reports the specific dermoscopic features observed in two patients with syphilitic alopecia, highlighting alopecic patches with empty hair follicles and other distinguishing characteristics that may aid in differentiating it from other hair disorders.

This study found that oral contraceptive pills containing cyproterone acetate and drospirenone were more effective at reducing hirsutism in women with PCOS than those containing levonorgestrel over a 6-month period.

This case report describes a 6-year-old with alopecia areata and family history, highlighting successful management through individualized homeopathic treatment after limited improvement with allopathic medicines.

This study discovered that the gene Tfap2b identifies a melanocyte stem cell population in zebrafish, essential for regenerating melanocytes with multi-fate potential into adult pigment cells.

This study demonstrated that cortisol, estradiol, and testosterone are preserved in archaeological human hair, allowing for the analysis of ancient stress and reproductive hormone patterns.

This study found that finasteride users had higher odds of testicular abnormalities, obesity, and other conditions, highlighting the need for confounder adjustment in studies on its association with male breast cancer.

This study reported that platelet-rich plasma therapy significantly increased hair density and diameter in men with androgenetic alopecia by inducing morphological changes in hair follicles.

This review discusses dermal cell heterogeneity in wound healing and scar formation, highlighting the varied roles of different fibroblasts and the potential of skin substitutes without presenting new clinical results.

In a study using a mouse model of diabetes, chitosan-based hydrogels increased healing markers and improved wound closure and tissue repair compared to untreated wounds, but human efficacy needs further validation.
