Among reproductive-aged women in Iran, this study found that the prevalence of PCOS varied significantly depending on the diagnostic criteria used, with estimates ranging from 7.1% to 14.6%.

This study concluded that the 800-nm diode laser is effective in enhancing skin structure and collagen expression via the TGF-β/Smad pathway, suggesting potential for non-ablative rejuvenation.

This study identified the clinical aspects and dermatophyte types involved in tinea incognito in Iran, with Trichophyton verrucosum being the most frequently isolated species among affected patients.

In this study, helium-neon laser irradiation at approximately 1 J/cm² significantly increased the percentage of hair follicles in the anagen phase in both testosterone-treated and untreated mice, suggesting stimulation of hair growth.

This study found that Er–YAG laser treatment significantly enhanced skin absorption and follicular delivery of antialopecia drugs, suggesting a potential laser-assisted approach to treat alopecia.

This study found that higher melanin concentration in black hair offers photoprotection against sunlight-induced protein damage in the cortex, whereas the cuticle experiences similar photodamage regardless of hair pigmentation.

This study found that tamsulosin, finasteride use, and aging are significantly associated with increased risk of intraoperative floppy iris syndrome during cataract surgery, while doxazosin does not appear to pose this risk.

This study found that CI-1033 caused skin lesions in rats that resemble effects seen in humans receiving EGF receptor inhibitors, suggesting this animal model can help explore the mechanisms behind this cutaneous toxicity.

This study identified a new variety of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia that includes patchy hair loss on the lateral and posterior scalp in African-American women, which could be misdiagnosed as traction alopecia without dermatoscopy and pathology.

This study found that deferiprone significantly reduced dermal fibrosis and skin thickness in mice with chronic kidney disease treated with Omniscan, suggesting iron's role in gadolinium chelate toxicity and nephrogenic systemic fibrosis.

This study documented an outbreak of thallium poisoning in Iraq, highlighting its dermatological, neurological, and psychological signs, which are crucial for accurate diagnosis.

This review discusses the impact of COVID-19 on dermatology practice in Iran, emphasizing adaptation to challenges such as teledermatology and new cutaneous COVID-19 symptoms, but reports no new clinical results.

Finasteride's polymorphic form affects capsule quality and drug effect, requiring strict control.

The researchers reported that keratin 33A is a structural protein specific to goat cashmere hair, with increased winter expression in high-cashmere-producing breeds.

This study observed increased proliferation and certain gene expressions in dermal papilla cells exposed to an 808 nm laser diode array at doses above 0.5 J/cm².

This study found no association between serum concentrations of irisin or GIP and BMI in women with or without PCOS.

In this observational study, dermoscopy was found to be a useful tool in diagnosing lichen planopilaris among patients with primary cicatricial alopecia.

This study found that unilateral neutron irradiation in pigs significantly decreased the uptake of radioactive zinc in blood, impaired growth, and led to decreased organ weights and hair pigmentation changes on the irradiated side.

This study analyzed the genetics of the patchiness phenotype in New Zealand rabbits and found that the gene KRT82, with identified SNPs in its promoter, may serve as a potential biomarker for breeding these rabbits.

This study found that using a combination of ablative CO₂ fractional laser and fetal fibroblast transplantation significantly reduced scarring in mice, with long-term sphere-forming cultured fibroblasts producing scar appearances closest to normal skin.

In this study, researchers found a direct link between autism and the intake of sugar and maltose, while an inverse connection was observed with the intake of total carbohydrate, fructose, and lactose, indicating a potential relationship between dietary patterns and autism.

This study found that red light at an irradiance of 8 mW/cm² was most effective in promoting growth and modulating signaling pathways in dermal papilla cells treated with dihydrotestosterone, suggesting the need for personalized photobiomodulation treatment approaches for androgenetic alopecia.

In this prospective cohort study conducted in Iraq, 15.2% of children with confirmed COVID-19 experienced persistent symptoms beyond 12 weeks; common symptoms included fatigue and hair fall, with children aged 11-16 at greater risk.

This meta-analysis reports that male sex, hypertension, tamsulosin, finasteride, benzodiazepines, and antipsychotics are significantly associated with increased risk of developing intraoperative floppy-iris syndrome during cataract surgery.

This study found a significant prevalence of autoimmune gastritis among iron deficiency patients, suggesting guidelines should include non-invasive testing for this condition during initial evaluations.

In this randomized trial of Iranian men with moderate to severe androgenetic alopecia, researchers found that both finasteride and dutasteride improved hair density over 24 weeks, with dutasteride showing stronger PSA reduction but similar safety to finasteride.

In this case study, researchers described a 7-year-old girl with non-scarring alopecia marked by unique clinical features, likely due to congenital triangular alopecia, and planned a hair follicle transplant to enhance her quality of life.

In this study conducted among healthy Iranian girls in Isfahan province, researchers found that the median onset age for menstruation was 12.05 years, breast development began at 9.89 years, and pubic hair development started at 10.14 years, with earlier puberty onset potentially indicating precocious puberty.

In this cross-sectional study on Iraqis, 74.5% of participants self-reported hair loss following COVID-19 infection, with the highest prevalence among those aged 19-29, pointing to a potential link between COVID-19 and increased risk of telogen effluvium.

This study reports varying levels of potassium and iron in honey samples, contributing to the understanding of mineral content in honey.
