The authors report a dementia patient who developed severe trichotillomania unresponsive to SSRIs, which improved with quetiapine; they suggest dopamine blockade may manage such symptoms in dementia.

This review discusses post-SSRI sexual dysfunction and post-finasteride syndrome, highlighting unknowns about their true incidence and underlying causes, and reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that post-finasteride syndrome and post-SSRI sexual dysfunction share potential etiopathogenetic mechanisms involving brain modulators, neurotransmitters, and gut microbiota, although more research is needed to understand these conditions fully.

In this literature review, it was reported that mental health disorders may both contribute to and be exacerbated by various types of hair loss, and an interdisciplinary treatment model is recommended for effective diagnosis and patient care.

This study found that finasteride impaired stress reactivity and reduced exploratory and impulsive behaviors in rats, potentially by altering the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis function.

This review highlights that obsessive-compulsive disorder and body-focused repetitive behaviors are increasingly encountered in dermatology, often going undetected, and emphasizes the role of dermatologists in early identification and interdisciplinary treatment to address both physical and psychological aspects for improved outcomes.

This narrative review highlights that endurance, skill-oriented athletes, and physique-oriented competitors such as bodybuilders face accelerated degradation of fillers and botulinum neurotoxin due to elevated basal metabolic rates and other factors, and raised concerns about psychological conditions like body dysmorphic disorder in these populations.

This study found that adults with trichotillomania or skin picking disorder experienced significantly poorer sleep quality, which was linked to various factors including age, stress, distress tolerance, impulsivity, and comorbid mental disorders.

A woman's unique dementia was misdiagnosed, a genetic mutation increases Parkinson's risk with age, and finasteride may help with Tourette syndrome.

In this study, patients with seasonal affective disorder were found to have increased functional connectivity in certain brain networks and higher low-frequency fluctuations compared to healthy controls, which aligns with their attentional and psychomotor symptoms.

Finasteride significantly reduced tics and obsessive-compulsive symptoms in Tourette syndrome patients.

In this study, D-OCT imaging revealed distinct structural and vascular changes in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting the technique's potential for diagnosing and monitoring the condition's activity.

The document describes a woman with familial Parkinson's disease due to a genetic mutation, showing severe symptoms and poor response to treatment, and suggests finasteride may help reduce symptoms in Tourette syndrome.

This review explores how adaptive changes in cerebellar and vestibular subsystems may contribute to balance control, noting cellular mechanisms involved, but presents no new clinical findings.

This article presents a case study of a 50-year-old woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia and discusses the role of dermoscopy in differentiating it from other types of alopecia, reporting no new clinical results.

This study found that in sleep-deprived rats, increased 5α-reductase expression and activity in the prefrontal cortex contributed to psychosis- and mania-like symptoms, which finasteride ameliorated in a dose-dependent manner.

This study found that frontal fibrosing alopecia involves distinct molecular changes, such as downregulation of steroid and cholesterol pathways and upregulation of fibrotic and immune response genes, which may help guide treatment strategies.

This article reviews studies on younger men using finasteride for hair loss, finding persistent sexual and nonsexual side effects like erectile dysfunction and depression, and reports lower neurosteroid levels in affected individuals.

Frontal fibrosing alopecia may be caused by an autoimmune reaction and hormonal imbalance.

This study reviewed 18 postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting frontotemporal hairline recession and eyebrow loss, often treated with steroids, triamcinolone, and other medications.

This study observed that frontal fibrosing alopecia predominantly affects postmenopausal women, can be associated with lichen planus, and may lead to progressive hairline recession, though this progression is not consistent in all cases.

This source reports that clinical trials using advanced Deep Brain Stimulation systems, augmented with AI to integrate kinematic data, eye tracking, and cognitive assessments, show promise in improving diagnostic accuracy and monitoring symptoms for patients with Parkinson's disease.

This study reviewed clinical data from 60 patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia and found increasing prevalence and generally poor response to treatment, with the cause remaining unclear.

This research discusses Fahr syndrome, highlighting its association with abnormal brain calcifications and varied clinical symptoms in young to middle-aged adults. Diagnosis involves specific criteria and CT scans, but no specific treatment exists; therapy focuses on managing symptoms and underlying conditions.

Finasteride reduces gambling symptoms in Parkinson's patients.

This review covers the clinical presentation and challenges in treating frontal fibrosing alopecia in postmenopausal women and concludes that more research is needed to understand its etiology and develop effective treatments.

In this study, men with persistent sexual dysfunction after stopping finasteride showed significant vascular, neurologic, and hormonal abnormalities, with severe erectile dysfunction being common.

This review examines the characteristics of frontal fibrosing alopecia in postmenopausal women, highlighting the importance of biopsy for early diagnosis and potential treatment to prevent disease progression.
