This paper introduces a framework attributing Post-SSRI, Post-Finasteride, Post-Retinoid, and an unnamed sexual dysfunction syndrome to downregulated estrogen receptor activity, potentially guiding future treatments in sexual medicine.

This study found that polymers significantly improved the chemical and microbial stability of steroid hormones in liposome formulations over eight weeks, with finasteride showing the highest diffusion rate.

This study reports two cases of follicular lichen planus, suggesting that GLPLS and LPP may be variants of this condition based on clinical and immunofluorescent findings.

This study found that intradermal injections of autologous cell-free fat extract significantly improved the condition of postinflammatory hyperpigmentation patients, with high patient satisfaction and minimal adverse effects.

This study examined clinical characteristics of lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia in 24 men, revealing common scalp symptoms, frequent beard involvement, and limited association with thyroid disease.

This study found that patients with post-finasteride syndrome exhibited major depressive disorder, severe erectile dysfunction, and neuropathy, alongside altered neuroactive steroid levels in cerebrospinal fluid.

This study found that the multifunctional FEA-PCEI dressing significantly accelerated wound healing, reduced scar formation, and promoted hair follicle neogenesis while providing antibacterial and anti-inflammatory benefits.

This randomized, placebo-controlled trial reported that USPlus PRO saw palmetto extract significantly improved lower urinary tract symptoms, including voiding, incomplete emptying, and weak stream, as well as sexual function in males over 12 weeks, while maintaining a favorable safety profile.

In this article, researchers describe a novel FUE device designed to enhance follicular unit excision surgery by minimizing follicular injury and improving ergonomics with features such as Bluetooth functionality, fingertip touch sensors, and automated operation.

This study found that cPPARγ and dnPPARγ isoforms are differentially expressed in healthy human skin, suggesting that PPARγ modulators may have compartment-specific effects depending on isoform presence.

This research presents the Dodatek A model, elaborating on androgen function through new mathematical indices and methodological improvements, shifting focus from serum hormone concentrations to system interactions to better describe androgen activity comprehensively.

This study reports that a patient with rare linear lichen planopilaris experienced complete hair regrowth after 12 weeks of treatment with the antibody ixekizumab, suggesting it as a potential targeted therapy.

This study observed that the ethyl acetate extract of Equisetum debile showed high activity against 5α-reductase and lipid peroxidation with no cytotoxicity on dermal papilla cells.

This article examines the ethical concerns and marketing practices of follicular unit excision hair restoration surgery, highlighting misconceptions such as "scarless surgery," without presenting new clinical findings.

This commentary discusses the crucial role of the alternative splicing factor Esrp1 in maintaining skin barrier function and its association with skin diseases like atopic dermatitis and psoriasis, but reports no new clinical results.

A woman developed permanent hair loss after a face-lift surgery despite various treatments.

This study identified epiprofin as a highly tissue-specific nuclear protein that promotes cell proliferation, mainly expressed in the developing teeth, hair follicles, and limbs of embryonic mice.

This review discusses the adverse skin effects of EGFR inhibitors used in cancer treatment, exploring their mechanisms and offering strategies for prevention and management, but reports no new experimental findings.

In this study, FAPD was characterized in a Chinese population by perifollicular mast cell infiltration, suggesting young individuals may be at higher risk than previously thought.

In this study, researchers developed and optimized ethanol-free microemulsion systems for transdermal finasteride delivery, finding that the predicted formulations closely matched their physical and chemical characteristics, potentially reducing adverse effects compared to oral administration.

In a post-hoc analysis of six trials, this study observed that both adult and pediatric patients with moderate-to-severe palmoplantar psoriasis treated with ixekizumab experienced rapid and complete clearance of lesions, sustained for up to 5 years in adults and 2 years in children.

This study reports that the dye peri-xanthenoxanthene (PXX) can act as an efficient photocatalyst for various radical reactions, including complex dual catalytic processes and the synthesis of an investigational drug intermediate.

This policy brief highlights that post-drug syndromes remain under-recognized in pharmacovigilance, leading to inadequate risk assessments and patient care. It identifies systemic failures in current frameworks and recommends actions to improve long-term drug safety monitoring and education, affecting public health outcomes significantly.

In this study, frontal fibrosing alopecia showed a higher cumulative remission rate compared to lichen planopilaris, despite similar timeframes and relapse rates between the two conditions.

PPAR-γ agonists like pioglitazone may help manage lichen planopilaris but don't fully reverse scarring.

This review discusses concerns about persistent side effects of finasteride, such as sexual dysfunction and suicidal ideation, urging the medical community to recognize and address these issues.

This case report describes the first known instance of fibrosing alopecia associated with cutaneous lichen planus, suggesting fibrosing alopecia may be a variant of lichen planopilaris.

This study reported a significant increase in the reporting of sexual dysfunction associated with finasteride use, especially in individuals aged 31-45.

This study found that PGF 2α receptors were predominantly present in the inner root sheath of the bulb and stem of human eyelashes during the anagen phase.
