In this study, researchers found that intestine-derived human alpha defensin 5 enhances wound healing, reduces bacterial load, and promotes hair growth in murine burn wound beds by increasing LGR stem cell migration.

This review discusses findings from genetic studies on acne, highlighting progress in understanding its molecular pathogenesis without reporting new clinical results.

This review suggests that skin may largely protect itself from CYP-generated reactive metabolites due to higher conjugating enzyme activities, while highlighting limitations in modeling human skin metabolism experimentally.

This review summarizes various effects of bergamot components on multiple health conditions in humans and animals but reports limitations in their use for stress and anxiety relief in aromatherapy.

This article discusses the application and considerations of bariatric surgery for adolescents with severe obesity, highlighting the need for specialized programs but reporting no new clinical results.

Amenorrhea is when a woman doesn't have periods, with primary amenorrhea starting by age 15 or within five years of breast development, and secondary amenorrhea when periods stop for three months. It affects 3-4% of women not pregnant, breastfeeding, or in menopause, mainly due to polycystic ovary syndrome, hypothalamic amenorrhea, hyperprolactinemia, and ovarian failure.

This study identified several compounds from traditional Chinese medicines that may inhibit prostaglandin D2 synthase, potentially providing promising candidates for treating androgenic alopecia with minimal adverse skin reactions.
