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 demonstrated a method for delivering a photosensitizer, Ammi majus fructuum furocumarines, into hair follicles using calcium carbonate particles, followed by UVA irradiation, which led to significant pigment accumulation, indicating potential improvements for photochemical therapy.

This study demonstrated that dyeing can enhance the absorption coefficient of hair follicle tissues for selective photodestruction within human skin and hair follicles.

This review covers gynecologic examination challenges and normal anatomical variations in prepubertal girls, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing common benign conditions from rare abuse cases; it presents no new experimental findings.

This study developed a double-wavelength laser scanning microphotometer to measure hair shaft and follicle absorbance, improving spatial resolution and reducing light scattering effects in vitro.

In this study, researchers reported that a newly developed interferon-γ release assay for cell-mediated immunity to SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid peptides demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity, making it a robust tool for routine diagnostic tests and potentially useful in predicting clinical outcomes after pathogen re-exposure.

This study developed microfluidics-based 3D microtumors to model minimal residual disease in ovarian cancer, highlighting their alignment with patient-derived MRD and response to a fatty acid oxidation inhibitor.

This study found that multiple treatments combining NIR laser phototherapy with ICG significantly reduced inflammation and improved skin condition in acne without side effects.

Er:YAG laser therapy effectively treats Hailey-Hailey disease, leading to long-term remission and improved quality of life.

This paper presents an RGB video microscopic system to monitor optical properties of hair shafts and follicles in vitro, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses how common skin disorders manifest differently in children with dark skin, highlighting distinctive reaction patterns and cultural practices, but reports no new clinical results.

The researchers reported that certain physical characteristics of hair shafts, such as length and color, may influence mtDNA read counts and degradation state when analyzed by massively parallel sequencing.

In this case series, researchers reported scarring alopecia in six out of 450 patients (1.33%) treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors for metastatic melanoma, with all affected patients experiencing other immune-related adverse effects but continuing treatment with favorable cancer outcomes.

In this study, researchers reported a 1.33% prevalence of scarring alopecia among 450 patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors for metastatic melanoma, noting that hair loss did not require treatment discontinuation and seemed to coincide with favorable cancer outcomes.

This study found that exosome-based therapy using rose stem cell-derived exosomes may safely induce hair repigmentation in individuals with gray hair, particularly for those with shorter durations of graying and androgenetic alopecia.

This review highlights the significant antidiabetic activity of Allium ascalonicum (shallot), attributed to its flavonoid compounds like quercetin, in reducing blood glucose levels across various studies, while calling for further research to confirm its safety and efficacy as a diabetes treatment.

This study reports that subcutaneous testosterone pellets in peri- and postmenopausal women provided sustained hormone release and potential benefits for sexual function, but raised concerns about safety, variability, and dosing inconsistencies.

In this study, researchers found distinct gene expression patterns in Standardbred trotters capable of racing barefoot, suggesting a genetic basis for hoof strength and identifying specific genes involved in hoof biology, which could enhance equine performance and wellbeing through targeted genetic research.

This study observed that patients with AA showed a high willingness to trade off lifespan for better disease-specific quality of life, indicating a significant disease burden.

This study found that varying the concentration of propylene glycol in katuk leaf extract hair tonic formulations significantly affects the viscosity, highlighting the importance of propylene glycol concentration in maintaining the physical characteristics of these preparations.
