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.

This systematic review and meta-analysis found that hidradenitis suppurativa is associated with an increased risk of major adverse cardiac events, including cerebrovascular accidents and myocardial infarction, although study heterogeneity affects the magnitude of risk.

This paper presents diagnostic characteristics obtained from various analytical methods to support the pharmacognostic standardization of Lawsonia inermis L. leaf, commonly known as henna.

This study introduced hair capacitance mapping as a promising technique for assessing hair surface moisture dynamics, revealing that weathered hair loses moisture more quickly than intact hair.

This case report describes a patient with a hepatitis C diagnosis whose acral rash, initially unresponsive to psoriasis treatment, showed significant improvement with oral zinc sulfate, suggesting a diagnosis of necrolytic acral erythema.

This study found that the mammalian Hr protein can interact with the p53 pathway by binding to a specific p53 response element, influencing the regulation of genes involved in cell cycle control.

This article describes the causes of hirsutism, introduces a novel assessment tool, and suggests strategies for investigation and management, but provides no new experimental results.

In this study, cyproterone acetate treatment in hirsute women resulted in a 19% reduction in hair growth rate and a 33% improvement in physician-rated hirsutism scores.

This review discusses the potential of using high-throughput and high-content screening methods for drug repositioning in rare diseases and reports no new results.

In this study, both cyproterone acetate-estrogen combination (Diane®) and finasteride were effective in reducing hirsutism, but Diane® showed greater long-term efficacy and cost-effectiveness.

This article highlights the health risks associated with adding paraphenylenediamine to mehndi, such as contact dermatitis and asthma, and emphasizes the need for regulatory checks as its use grows among cancer patients, women with alopecia, and pregnant individuals.

This study suggests that hair cortisol concentration may not reliably indicate psychological distress or differentiate clinical from non-clinical populations, as observed in a female PhD student over nine years.

In this study, cyproterone acetate at 2 mg daily was found to be as effective as higher doses in reducing hair growth for hirsute women over 12 months.

This study investigated the effects of intensive hair dye use in mixed-breed dogs and found changes in the cuticle of the hair shaft and the epidermis using scanning electron microscopy.

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 found that cepharanthine significantly inhibits EqHV-8 infection in vitro and improves lung tissue pathology in infected mice by reducing oxidative stress through specific signaling pathways, suggesting its potential as a treatment for equid herpesvirus type 8.

This study found that both cyproterone acetate alone and combined with ethinyl oestradiol reduced androgen levels and slightly increased SHBG binding in women with hirsutism, but showed no difference in hair regrowth rate between the treatments.

This case report presents unique histopathological findings in skin lesions of hereditary mucoepithelial dysplasia that have not been previously documented.

This article discusses solitary hirsutism, emphasizing that treatment is mostly cosmetic unless contraception is also desired, and reports no new clinical results.

This review examines recent advancements in green and emerging microextraction techniques, such as SPME and DLLME, for more sustainable hormone detection in biological samples, emphasizing environmentally friendly solvents and bioanalytical applications.

This study established a rapid and accurate ultra-performance liquid chromatographic method for chemical fingerprinting and analyzing Platycladi cacumen, effectively distinguishing batches based on geographical and climatic conditions.

This study found that treatment with cyproterone acetate and estradiol improved emotional well-being and acceptance of being viewed among women with hirsutism, with no significant differences between oral and transdermal estradiol groups.

This review highlights that pharmacologic therapy for hirsutism can effectively decrease hair growth, normalize menstrual cycles, and reduce endometrial cancer risk, with improvements in physical and mental well-being and minimal serious side effects reported.

This study found that the deletion of soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) in mice altered the hair follicle cycle and increased hair growth through effects on hair follicle stem and matrix cells.

This review discusses developments in oral contraceptives, highlighting improved individualization, reduced side effects, and enhanced suitability for various women's health needs, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the roles of the hairless (HR) protein as a corepressor, particularly its impact on RORα-mediated transcriptional repression, and reports no new experimental findings.

This review examines various methods for assessing hair growth in women, highlighting the usefulness of the mFG visual scoring method for diagnosing hirsutism despite its limitations.

This study found that supplementing Liaoning cashmere goats with HMBi increased cashmere length while decreasing its diameter, attributed to changes in Met-related metabolites and elevated expression of genes related to the Met cycle and cell differentiation pathways such as Wnt and MAPK.

This study developed a sensitive method using LC-ESI-MS/MS for accurate and reliable measurement of nine steroid hormones in children's serum.

In a cross-sectional analysis of 58 hair growth cosmeceuticals marketed for women or unisex use, this study found that ingredients with potential environmental hazards, particularly phenoxyethanol and synthetic fragrances, are commonly present, while substances like sodium lauryl sulfate, parabens, and microbeads were not detected.
