This research proposes to investigate the incidence of skin diseases in dogs from North-eastern India linked to deficiencies in alpha-linolenic and linoleic acids, as these essential fatty acids have anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory benefits potentially aiding inflammatory skin disease therapy.

In this study, researchers investigated the effects of Aqueous Artocarpus heterophyllus seed extract on testosterone enanthate-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia in adult Wistar rats, using three different dosages to assess its potential as an alternative therapy. Results are not reported in this abstract.

This study observed that CTUMP's Herb shampoo significantly improved hair growth and density in mice compared to a saline solution, though it was less effective than minoxidil in promoting follicle development.

This case report describes a woman who experienced worsened breast implant illness symptoms following a COVID-19 infection and vaccination, which improved after implant removal, even though numerous screenings had been inconclusive prior to explantation.

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of a treatment approach called Sthanika Chikitsa, involving Shiro Lepa and specific herbal and nasal preparations, for managing Indralupta, a condition akin to Alopecia Areata characterized by hair loss. Results are not provided in the abstract.

This study found that combining platelet-rich plasma with 4% hydroquinone was more effective in reducing melasma symptoms than using hydroquinone alone.

This review discusses the role of sex hormones, particularly estrogen and progesterone, in melasma pathogenesis and suggests that progesterone in oral contraceptives may help prevent melasma by regulating melanocyte proliferation.

Mycophenolic acid may help hair grow by activating pathways important for hair growth.

This study found that Chrysanthemum zawadskii extract may promote hair growth by inducing an earlier conversion of telogen to anagen and increasing the proliferation of dermal papilla cells in mice and human hair follicle cultures.

This study observed that uncommon finasteride side effects included melasma, dry skin, tinnitus, postural hypotension, and oral lesions, with some symptoms persisting after treatment cessation.

This study found that adverse effects of finasteride were more common among right-handed heterosexuals and left-handed homosexuals with androgenic alopecia.

This study found that coadministration of 5α-reductase inhibitors with oral testosterone in oil significantly increases serum testosterone levels in medically castrated men compared to testosterone alone, with food intake minimally affecting these levels.

This review explores how sex differences influence the pathophysiology, incidence, and treatment outcomes of ischaemic heart disease, and emphasizes the need for more sex-specific research.

This study found that testosterone therapy in trans men increased facial and body hair growth while the prevalence and severity of acne peaked at 6 months but were primarily mild after long-term treatment.

This review provides an overview of the prevalence and management of side effects of mood-stabilizing drugs in bipolar disorder patients and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, acne severity in females was strongly associated with inflammatory lesion count and moderately associated with androgens, especially DELTA 4 and DHEAS promoting acne and SHBG reducing it.

This study found that discontinuing finasteride led to a significant increase in sperm counts for most men with reduced fertility, though hormone levels and other semen parameters remained unchanged.

This review discusses the potential for hand preference and sexual orientation to predict sexual side effects of finasteride in men with androgenic alopecia, but reports no new clinical results.

This paper proposes a theory explaining how the normal anabolic effects of androgens lead to structural changes and hair follicle miniaturization, contributing to androgenic alopecia.

This review explores the phytochemistry and phytopharmacology of Urtica dioica but reports no new experimental findings, focusing on its traditional uses and range of bioactive constituents.

This study found that male pattern baldness may serve as a clinical marker for circulating sex hormone levels in men with localized prostate cancer, while chest hair density showed no significant hormone association.

This review summarizes the potential of N-acetyl-cysteine in managing diseases linked to redox imbalance, discussing its effects from cellular mechanisms to clinical applications, though further research is suggested for broader use.
