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 found that ILK/ELMO2 complexes in epidermal keratinocytes are selectively activated by epidermal growth factor to induce cell migration, unlike with other growth factors.

This study identified KRT82 as a significant Alopecia Areata risk gene, finding that rare damaging variants are linked to elevated immune cell infiltration around hair follicles in affected individuals.

This review discusses strategies for weight loss in obesity through dietary energy deficits and nutrient profile modifications and highlights the need for personalized dietary approaches; it reports no new data.

This study found a significant association between patients' sex of rearing and external genitalia in those with gonadal dysgenesis, while noting lower testosterone levels compared to controls.

This study observed that integrating best practices for anabolic androgenic steroid users into Swiss primary care is feasible and well-accepted, though current doping laws hinder adequate medical care for this population.

This study suggests that using growth factors and ADSC-conditioned medium can enhance keratinocyte viability and migration in epidermal transplantation, potentially improving chronic wound healing rates with a patient-dependent effect.

This study identified six key concerns, including self-consciousness and physical symptoms, among patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus that should be considered in quality-of-life assessments.

This review discusses post-finasteride syndrome, emphasizing its serious psychological and cognitive symptoms and the need for more research and awareness in the medical community, but provides no new clinical findings.

This paper discusses the adverse effects of finasteride, including sexual dysfunction and depression, and suggests that treatment customization based on individual factors like hand preference and sexual orientation could improve outcomes and reduce these side effects.

This article reviews the safety of finasteride by examining existing literature and does not report new findings, highlighting the ongoing controversies regarding its adverse effects.
