In this study, researchers found that 2 out of 9 analyzed cosmetic hair growth products contained the banned substance minoxidil, demonstrating the presence of this antihypertensive drug in some cosmetics despite regulations.

The researchers observed that dermoscopy is valuable for assessing acne scars and their response to treatment, with shorter-duration scars responding more effectively.

Hair follicles are crucial for maintaining skin barrier function.

This study found that a novel thiohydantoin derivative, 3a, effectively inhibited androgen receptor activity in LNCaP cells and showed promising in vivo results by reducing testosterone-induced prostate changes, outperforming finasteride in mitigating prostate index and histopathological alterations.

This study found that using at least one ICD-10 code for alopecia in Medicaid claims data accurately identified alopecia in women of childbearing age, with positive predictive values between 95.3% and 100% across various algorithms tested.

This study used hair samples to assess mineral levels and found that higher iron status may be associated with an increased risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, while no significant associations were observed for copper and magnesium levels in this cohort.

This case report describes a 1-month-old male infant with Netherton syndrome, characterized by severe hypernatremia, skin and scalp issues, highlighting the syndrome's complications, including growth retardation and infection risks in early life.

This study highlights that mutations in the MBTPS2 gene can lead to dermatological disorders like IFAP syndrome and severe bone diseases such as X-Linked Osteogenesis Imperfecta, emphasizing the significance of understanding these genetic variants for disease mechanisms and associations.

This study introduces three spectrophotometric techniques for accurately determining finasteride and tadalafil in their combined pharmaceutical form, demonstrating their sustainability, sensitivity, and suitability for quality assurance, alongside a dissolution study following FDA guidelines.

This study found that the methanolic extract of Hibiscus rosa sinensis exhibits promising 5α-reductase inhibitory activity, suggesting its potential use in the treatment of androgenic conditions like male pattern hair loss and benign prostatic hyperplasia.

New gene discoveries have improved diagnosis and treatment for skin and hair disorders, but more research is needed to fully understand them.
