This article reviews the assessment, causes, and management approaches for hirsutism in women, emphasizing ethical considerations concerning unapproved drug use and contraceptive responsibility but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that DHEA along with osteogenic induction medium significantly promotes the osteogenic differentiation and proliferation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from older individuals.

A new genetic mutation in mice causes permanent hair loss and skin wrinkling.

A new EDA gene mutation was found in a Chinese family with a specific skin disorder.

In this study, anemia was commonly observed in exercising women, especially those with heavy menstrual bleeding, and the authors recommend using a simple screening tool involving haemoglobin testing.

The document concludes that managing hirsutism involves identifying the cause, using a scoring system for severity, combining cosmetic and medical treatments, encouraging weight loss, and providing psychological support, while noting the need for more research on drug treatments.

This study presents a novel in vitro assay using human folliculoid microspheres to research hair growth, which may facilitate preclinical testing of hair growth-modulatory agents.

This study found that ethanolic extracts of Microsechium helleri showed notable antioxidant, hypoglycemic, and cardioprotective activities, while chloroformic extracts exhibited significant anti-inflammatory effects in experimental models.

This study found higher concentrations of chromium, lead, and arsenic in the hair of workshop workers and traffic officers compared to a control group, indicating occupational exposure to these metals. Mercury levels varied across exposed groups, suggesting additional lifestyle factors may influence metal accumulation.

This study found that among Japanese full-time employees, cortisol levels in hair were negatively associated with aversive coping and emotional support-seeking tendencies, while dehydroepiandrosterone levels were linked to job confidence.

This study found that Acanthus ebracteatus extract may promote the proliferation of human hair follicle dermal papilla cells and reported that its microemulsion was stable for 12 weeks.

This study found that treatment with leuprolide plus cyclic estrogen/progestin may lead to a faster and greater improvement in hirsutism compared to a standard oral contraceptive regimen.

In this study, human scalp hair grafted onto nude mice accurately reflected methyl mercury exposure, demonstrating its potential as a research model for monitoring mercury incorporation into human hair.

This article reviews the risks of metal exposure from cosmetic products and emphasizes the need for stricter regulation and consumer awareness, without presenting new data or results.

This review found that patients with depression generally have higher hair cortisol concentrations compared to healthy controls, while those with PTSD tend to have lower concentrations.

In this case study, a 70-year-old male with lymphoid variant hypereosinophilic syndrome presented with rare isolated pulmonary involvement, which improved with prednisone treatment.

In this study, 85.9% of 120 hirsute Saudi women exhibited elevated androgen levels, suggesting the need for a comprehensive hormonal evaluation to identify underlying causes of hirsutism.

This study found that the mutant hairless rhino bald protein in mice interacts with the vitamin D receptor but cannot repress its transactivation and shows abnormal cellular localization.

This study found that Mentha suaveolens aqueous extract activated Nrf-2 and increased detoxifying enzyme expression in keratinocytes, providing protection against oxidative stress without cytotoxicity.

In this study, EFH-SLM cream demonstrated greater efficiency in reducing hair density compared to plain EFH cream in Swiss albino female mice, with significantly less skin irritation and inflammation observed, suggesting improved permeability and effectiveness of EFH when using the new cream formulation.

This study found that enzyme replacement therapy in mice with a severe form of classical homocystinuria improved metabolic patterns and alleviated many clinical symptoms.

This study presents a new LC-MS/MS method that allows for more accurate detection of seven steroid hormones in human hair, enhancing the specificity and reliability of hormone analysis in psychoneuroendocrinological research.

This review discusses the growing use of scalp hair for elemental analysis in various fields and highlights advancements in analysis techniques, including the future potential of laser ablation ICP-MS, but reports no new clinical results.

This study concluded that two exemestane preparations are bioequivalent, using a high-performance liquid chromatographic mass spectrometric method to measure concentrations in human plasma.

This study found that the hairless gene in mice has a more extensive role in development than previously thought, as indicated by its expression in various tissues and associated abnormalities in hr/hr mutants.

The researchers concluded that their new reconstructed human epidermis model from plucked hair follicle-derived keratinocytes offers a safer and simpler alternative to traditional skin-derived models for studying epidermal function.

This article reviews the use of anti-androgens, particularly cyproterone acetate, for managing hirsutism, but does not provide new clinical results.

In this study, researchers found that the EDMTFH protein is present in specific layers of the chicken embryo skin and feathers, suggesting its role in feather mechanics and development.

In this study, participants with psoriasis vulgaris and chronic urticaria chose Chinese herbal medicine due to beliefs about its safety and effectiveness in preventing relapse, although convenience and clinical evidence remain important considerations.

This study found that a daily dose of 50 mg DHEA only slightly increased the urinary testosterone/epitestosterone ratio for a short period, without exceeding the IOC's acceptable limit.
