This case report describes a 45-year-old woman with recurrent cyclic Cushing’s disease whose symptoms improved with metyrapone and hydrocortisone treatment.

This review analyzed past research on hormonal treatments for hidradenitis suppurativa, finding that anti-androgens like finasteride and spironolactone, along with metformin, showed promise but large-scale trials are needed to understand their full potential.

This study reported that a novel vasodilator drug called TOP-M119, when delivered using a specially designed dissolving microneedle system, showed enhanced targeting of hair follicles and effectiveness in treating alopecia, demonstrated through in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo studies involving mouse skin.

In this study, researchers evaluated Chyavanaprasam K Tab, an Ayurvedic tablet, finding it to have consistent quality and safety, with potential benefits for fatigue relief, immune support, and hair growth. It is also deemed suitable for diabetic individuals due to its sugar-free composition.

A medicine company has recalled a drug because it contained an unlisted blood pressure medication.

In this study, the researchers developed a cellulose-based hydrogel that provides sustained drug release with improved bioavailability and stability over time.

This study found that oral contraceptive pills containing cyproterone acetate and drospirenone were more effective at reducing hirsutism in women with PCOS than those containing levonorgestrel over a 6-month period.

This study found that a series of three monthly courses of medium-dose prednisolone pulse therapy was effective and well tolerated in most patients with active, multifocal alopecia areata but not in those with totalis/universalis.

In this study, the researchers reported that Chyavanaprasam K Tab, a novel Ayurvedic tablet, showed consistent quality and safety, offering potential benefits for fatigue relief, immune support, and hair growth, and is suitable for diabetics due to its sugar-free composition.

This study, using modified Delphi panels, provided consensus recommendations for managing alpelisib-induced hyperglycemia and rash, advising prophylactic metformin starting for certain risk groups and the use of nonsedating H1 antihistamines and topical steroids for initial rash management.

This letter discusses a case of iododerma in pregnancy linked to iodinated multivitamin use, but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report discusses an 80-year-old man whose hyponatremia likely resulted from multiple causes, including diuretic use, excessive water intake, and urinary retention, emphasizing cautious management in older adults.

This study developed a simple HPLC method for accurately estimating tamsulosin and finasteride in pharmaceutical forms, demonstrating good precision and potential application in combined dosage analysis.

This study observed that discontinuation rates due to side effects were similar for penicillamine and tiopronin among cystinuria patients, and switching to the alternative agent was beneficial for half of those experiencing issues.

This study found that US adults with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia most preferred a hypothetical adjunctive therapy that prevents glucocorticoid-induced weight gain over other potential benefits.

Antiandrogen therapy may be beneficial for women with hidradenitis suppurativa.

This study used a glucocorticoid-injection model to mimic kidney-yang deficiency syndrome and reported symptoms related to hormonal imbalances in the hypothalamic-pituitary-target gland axes.

In this study, researchers developed and tested a gel containing apocynin-loaded nanoparticles that showed promising results in treating rheumatoid arthritis in rats, suggesting potential for novel topical treatments in inflammatory conditions.

This study presented a case where budesonide was insufficient to maintain remission in autoimmune hepatitis, suggesting it may be less effective than prednisolone and associated with notable steroid side effects.

In this pilot study, a medical device gel with hyaluronic acid and hydrogen peroxide showed promising safety and clinical performance for treating folliculitis in adults, reducing lesion count and improving severity scores and quality of life over 8 weeks.

This report describes a case where hidradenitis suppurativa developed in a patient receiving lithium, adding to the recognized cutaneous side effects like psoriasis, acneiform lesions, and alopecia.

This study suggests that weekly oral finasteride may be a promising alternative to isotretinoin for treating nodulocystic acne, showing substantial improvements with lower incidence of sexual dysfunction.

This study found that pulsed doses of prednisolone led to excellent hair growth in 60% of young patients with widespread alopecia areata, with minimal side effects.

The researchers developed semi-dissolving microneedle patches using TEMPO-oxidized bacterial cellulose nanofibers, which allow effective transdermal drug delivery by forming micro-channels for large drug quantities, overcoming traditional microneedles' low drug loading.

In this study, the researchers reported that a newly developed PYGL inhibitor, HTPI, enhanced hair growth in an ex-vivo culture by reducing oxidative damage in hDPCs and inhibiting glycogen degradation in hORSCs, showing potential as a treatment for hair loss comparable to minoxidil.

In this case report, a 7-month-old boy with Netherton syndrome experienced significant improvement in symptoms, including reduced pruritus and increased hair growth, through a combination of intravenous immunoglobulin and dupilumab treatment, which also decreased high serum IgE levels and food-specific IgE antibodies.

This study observed that treatment with spironolactone significantly improved pain, inflammatory lesion count, and HS-PGA scores among female patients with hidradenitis suppurativa, suggesting its potential as an effective treatment option, even at lower doses, despite no change in Hurley stage or fistula count.
