January 2026 in “Journal of Pharmacy & Bioresources” This study found that 44.3% of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia experienced high anxiety levels, which were significantly associated with residual symptoms and demographic factors.
January 2026 in “JCEM Case Reports” This case report presents a rare instance of recurrent ACTH-independent Cushing’s syndrome due to PBMAH, coinciding with the development of a pheochromocytoma, highlighting the need for thorough reevaluation in similar recurring cases.
December 2025 in “Naunyn-Schmiedeberg s Archives of Pharmacology” In this animal study, AGO (agomelatine) effectively alleviated testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia in rats by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, indicating its potential as a therapeutic option for managing BPH through specific signaling pathways.
In this study, a pH-responsive microneedle patch was developed, showing potential in rat models for treating spinal cord injuries by reducing inflammation, promoting nerve regeneration, and supporting neurogenesis, which contributed to improved motor and neurological recovery.
September 2025 in “JCEM Case Reports” In this case report, a 46-year-old woman initially diagnosed with 21-hydroxylase deficiency congenital adrenal hyperplasia was later identified as having 3β-HSD2 deficiency after further investigation, highlighting the need for awareness of rarer CAH forms to prevent delayed diagnosis and insufficient treatment.
September 2025 in “Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology” Single-needle radiofrequency is effective and safe for treating facial sebaceous hyperplasia.
June 2025 in “Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine” This study found that among children with 21-hydroxylase deficiency, there is a strong correlation between severe genetic variants and clinical outcomes, but the correlation weakens with milder variants, indicating the limitations of relying solely on NGS for diagnosis.
April 2025 in “Al-Rafidain Journal of Medical Sciences ( ISSN 2789-3219 )” In this study, researchers observed that Cuscuta reflexa extract mitigated inflammation and oxidative stress in testosterone-induced benign prostatic hypertrophy in Wistar rats, suggesting its potential as an adjunctive therapy for BPH.
March 2025 in “MAEDICA – a Journal of Clinical Medicine” This review explores the potential impact of SARS-CoV-2 on benign prostatic hyperplasia and related lower urinary tract symptoms but reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for further studies to quantify these changes.
March 2025 in “Journal of Education Health and Sport” This review reported that while finasteride is effective for treating androgenetic alopecia and benign prostatic hyperplasia, it may cause adverse effects such as sexual dysfunction and psychological symptoms, which require careful patient education and management to ensure treatment adherence and satisfaction.
February 2025 in “Cureus” This case report describes a 37-year-old female with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia who presented with severe acne, progressive hair loss, and primary infertility, managed with prednisolone.
January 2025 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” In this study, researchers found that fenugreek seed extract reduced prostate size, DHT levels, and cell proliferation in a testosterone-induced BPH rat model while modulating various genetic expressions, suggesting its potential as an alternative treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia.
January 2025 in “Faculty of 1000 Research Ltd” Plant-based treatments may help reduce BPH symptoms, but more research is needed.
December 2024 in “Zanco Journal of Medical Sciences” In this retrospective cohort study, researchers found no significant difference between finasteride and dutasteride in terms of reducing prostate volume or adverse effects among patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, although both drugs improved lower urinary tract symptoms over one year by reducing prostate volume.
November 2024 in “Australasian Journal of Dermatology” This article critiques a study on finasteride use among individuals with benign prostatic hyperplasia and androgenetic alopecia, highlighting the flawed methodology and potential confounding effects of hair loss on mental health, which confuses interpretation of psychiatric risk.
