This case report describes a 28-year-old woman with facial, abdominal, and thigh hirsutism who showed little improvement after 5 months of Metformin and spironolactone treatment.

This study identified neprilysin as a potential target of the pharmacological agent arteannuin, which may guide future research into its clinical applications, although experimental verification is needed.

This study suggests that keratin 15 and Id3 proteins play distinct roles in epithelial and dermal cell activities during the regeneration stages of rat vibrissae hair follicles.

This study identified two key epigenetic-related genes, HR and SMYD4, which may act as potential biomarkers in keloid disease, suggesting new therapeutic avenues for further research.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata have lower levels of sCD83, a protein which, when supplemented in a mouse model, reversed disease symptoms and supported regulatory T cell proliferation, possibly by interacting with IDO activity.

This study found that targeting the p300/androgen receptor axis effectively reduced AR activation and ovarian fibrosis in mouse models of polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting a potential therapeutic approach.

This study identified novel genetic variants related to rare skin and hair disorders, expanding the understanding of conditions like COLED, EV, and monilethrix, including a newly discovered type I keratin gene, KRT31, as a cause for monilethrix.

This study found that the most significant negative emotional responses among cancer patients during consultations were related to treatment delays and the possibility of hair loss.

This study identified specific morphological characteristics and kinship relationships among 27 candlenut genotypes in Karo Regency, North Sumatra, highlighting variations in stem, leaf, flower, fruit, and kernel traits, with the closest relationship between MTB1 and MTB2 genotypes.

This study found that a nomogram prediction model based on clinical characteristics, bone metabolism, and ovarian function can effectively predict the treatment response to long-acting GnRHa in girls with idiopathic central precocious puberty.

In this systematic meta-synthesis, the researchers observed substantial variation in how individuals with alopecia manage identity and appearance changes, highlighting difficulties with acceptance, social influences, and unmet treatment needs, thus emphasizing personalized support through non-pharmacological interventions.

This study found that a blink frequency of at least 20 blinks per minute is necessary to maintain tear film stability in young participants with dry eye symptoms, with lower frequencies significantly worsening various indicators of eye dryness.

This study investigated the metabolic pathways of epristeride, a new Type II 5α‐reductase inhibitor, using in vitro models and found that its metabolites show significant interactions with key proteins, suggesting implications for its role in doping control.

This case report presents a patient with idiopathic isolated ACTH deficiency and testicular germ cell tumor, with alopecia areata as an initial symptom, suggesting a potential link between these conditions.

In this case report, researchers describe a 13-year-old phenotypic female with 46,XY karyotype, previously misdiagnosed with androgen insensitivity syndrome, who was later identified to have 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 3 deficiency, underscoring the importance of genetic and hormonal tests for accurate diagnosis of sex development disorders.

This study concluded that adding a topical agent to intense pulsed light therapy significantly improved hair reduction and patient satisfaction in Pakistani women with idiopathic facial hirsutism compared to light therapy alone, without increasing adverse effects.

This study suggests that stress intensity is highly correlated with hairfall severity, highlighting the potential of an inexpensive and accessible machine learning approach for forecasting and prevention.

In this study, researchers identified six novel prognostic biomarkers for bladder cancer and developed a predictive model that effectively stratifies patients into high-risk and low-risk groups based on immune cell infiltration differences and gene expression.

This study elucidated the multi-component and multi-target mechanisms by which TR and Am may provide therapeutic benefits for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that combining PRP with topical minoxidil or finasteride significantly improved hair density and thickness, with patient satisfaction highest for multiple treatment combinations and longer durations.

This cross-sectional survey found that individuals with alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia perceived stigmatization and impaired quality of life, with greater stigma reported in German-speaking participants; factors like gender, age, and disease severity influenced stigmatization levels.

The researchers identified a pathogenic variant in the SRD5A2 gene among siblings with 46,XY disorder of sexual development, highlighting the importance of comprehensive genetic testing in diagnosis and management.

This research highlights the potential of non-coding RNAs as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in dermatology, while experimental studies on a unique GVM case suggest CCM2L may modulate disease severity, advancing understanding of genetic mechanisms in rare skin disorders.

In this cross-sectional study at a hospital in Nandyala, researchers identified nine drugs with potential new uses, noting that Aspirin and Dapagliflozin were most frequently repurposed, and observed changes in indications, dosage, and frequency, suggesting further clinical validation is needed for safety and efficacy.

This study investigated the therapeutic potential of phytochemicals from Phyla nodiflora, identifying 50 bioactive compounds through GC-MS analysis. Among them, n-hexadecanoic acid, stigmasterol, and beta-sitosterol showed promise in molecular docking studies as drug candidates for diabetes, alopecia, cancer, and anti-diuresis.

This study identified subgroups of people with alopecia areata with varying levels of quality of life impairment, influenced by feelings of flaw, coping styles, and social factors.

In this study, researchers found varying levels of multiple autoantibody types among thyroid disorder patients, with 84.84% of those with immunological hypothyroidism reporting symptoms like weight gain and lethargy, whereas 81.81% of those with immune hyperthyroidism experienced hair loss.

This case report outlines a 10-year-old boy who experienced a six-year history of twenty-nail dystrophy, highlighting the importance of physical examination for early diagnosis and management of nail disorders, with his primary symptoms involving nail disfigurement and alopecia areata, but no other health issues.
