In this study, the researchers reported a high prevalence of specific cutaneous lesions in the Freixo de Espada à Cinta population, with significant associations between demographic factors and lesion types.

This study of Black and Hispanic inner-city teens found that Norplant retention rates were 71% at one year and 62% at two years, with a history of induced abortion predicting higher continuation.

These drugs cause hair growth without affecting testosterone or adrenal hormones.

In this study, minoxidil treatment in aged mice increased elastin expression and improved aortic structure and function, suggesting its potential for arterial remodeling in aging.

This study found that African American men with prostate cancer have higher rates of somatic and germline androgen receptor mutations than Caucasian American men, which may contribute to ethnic differences in disease progression and outcomes.

This study found that RAR-gamma 1 mRNA is present in multiple skin layers and structures, suggesting a role in maintaining and differentiating normal epidermis and skin appendages.

This review highlights the possible role of T regulatory cells in the immune-related mechanisms of alopecia areata but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report describes a 41-year-old woman with segmental vitiligo and lichen sclerosus in the perineal region, where treatment with clobetasol ointment improved repigmentation and resolved many symptoms, although some scaling persisted.

This case study potentially links the use of anabolic steroids to increased severity of COVID-19 in a healthy 28-year-old man, with marked symptom improvement following treatment with proxalutamide.

This study found that rare germline pathogenic variants in BRCA2, BRCA1, and ATM are associated with increased risk of aggressive prostate cancer.
