This study found that patients with decreased kidney function had significantly higher hair levels of ethyl glucuronide compared to healthy individuals, suggesting these results should be cautiously interpreted.

This study found that exposure to artificial sunlight led to variable changes in ethyl glucuronide levels in hair, with both increases and decreases observed depending on hair characteristics.

In this study, researchers found that while chest hair can be a reliable alternative to scalp hair for ethylglucuronide testing, seasonal factors may affect concentration levels and should be considered in result interpretation.

This review describes how liver and kidney diseases and diabetes may affect ethyl glucuronide levels in hair, impacting forensic and clinical interpretations, but reports no new experimental results.

This study observed that ethyl glucuronide (EtG) concentrations in hair decreased significantly during an abstinent period, suggesting possible wash-out effects or other factors affecting EtG levels.

This review discusses the potential of using human hair proteomics for non-invasive diagnostic and forensic applications but reports no new results; the authors highlight areas needing further research.

This study suggests that chest, arm, leg, and beard hair samples may be viable alternatives to scalp hair for monitoring long-term alcohol intake, although body hair is more typically collected from men.

This study reported that patients with decreased kidney function had significantly higher levels of ethyl glucuronide in hair compared to healthy volunteers, suggesting caution when using hair EtG levels to assess driving qualifications.

This study found that during the Covid-19 lockdown, the percentage of abstinent and low-risk alcohol drinkers increased while moderate and chronic drinking decreased compared to the previous four years.

This study found that metformin treatment during pregnancy in women with PCOS was associated with higher SHBG levels in newborns, but did not affect androgen or estrogen levels at birth.

This study reports that the metanephrine content was significantly higher in patients with alopecia areata compared to those without the condition.

This study used a zebrafish model and advanced mass spectrometry to identify 11 metabolites of epristeride, revealing significant effects on purine metabolism and aromatic amino acid biosynthesis, which may aid in developing anti-doping detection methods.

This study reported that compounds isolated from Alpinia zerumbet significantly promoted hair cell growth and exhibited anticancer activity in cell cultures, suggesting potential as treatments for alopecia and cancer.

This study suggests that Equisetum debile extracts, particularly the ethyl acetate fraction, may offer natural cosmeceutical benefits for treating hyperpigmentation, delaying skin aging, and remediating hair loss due to androgenic alopecia.

This study developed and validated a comprehensive method using mass spectrometry to profile sex (pro)hormones in plasma, with results showing reliable calibration and detection of 31 analytes in samples from pre- and postmenopausal women and men, while addressing potential over- or underestimations in analyte concentrations.

This study found that extracts from Geranium pyrenaicum show promising antioxidant, enzyme inhibitory, and antiviral activities, particularly the methanolic extract's antiviral activity against HSV-1.

This study concluded that prepubertal girls with hypertrichosis have androgen receptors with enhanced sensitivity, which may contribute to their increased body hair growth.

This article reviews the role of enzymatic processes in drug and toxin metabolism, emphasizing their impact on solubility and elimination, without presenting new clinical findings.

This article reviews the mechanisms and uses of minoxidil for hypertension and androgenetic alopecia, without presenting new clinical findings.

Minoxidil helps hair growth, but results vary.

Minoxidil, when applied to the scalp, can stimulate hair growth but effects vary, stop if treatment ends, and it may cause side effects like fluid retention.

This review explores androgen metabolism in the skin, highlighting enzyme localization and potential implications for treating androgen-dependent skin conditions, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that overexpression of AKR1C3 in prostate cancer cells redirected androgen metabolism towards testosterone production, which facilitated cell proliferation, potentially reducing the effectiveness of finasteride treatment.

This study used a newly validated method to find that one-year finasteride treatment resulted in no significant differences in urinary androgen and prostaglandin levels between male pattern baldness patients and normal controls.

This study suggests that the testosterone analogs 7α-Methyltestosterone and 7α-Ethyltestosterone may offer promising androgenic, progestogenic, and anabolic properties for development as male contraceptives.

This survey reports on the types and extraction factors of flavonoids in three aquatic plants from Iraqi marshlands but notes limited information on individual flavonoid profiles and their biological impacts.

This review explores the pharmacological effects of Glycyrrhiza glabra, or liquorice, highlighting its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antiviral properties, but reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the crosstalk between auxin and ethylene in seedling growth and development, emphasizing how ethylene modulates auxin's effects across different tissues.

This study suggests that ethylene and lignoceric acid (C24:0) may promote cotton fiber and Arabidopsis root hair growth by activating the pectin biosynthesis network.

This study developed and validated a high-resolution mass spectrometry method to screen for prohibited substances and analyze six endogenous steroids in urine according to World Antidoping Agency requirements, demonstrating its effectiveness for antidoping analysis.
