Among adult male rats, this study found that combined exposure to lithium carbonate and lead acetate over 28 days led to synergistic cardiotoxic effects, evidenced by oxidative stress, ECG abnormalities, and molecular markers of increased apoptosis, despite no observable structural damage to myocardial tissue.

This study observed that exposure to heavy metal salts affected skin and hair morphology in mice, with lead acetate decreasing keratinocyte proliferation and zinc sulfate and sodium dichromate increasing it.

This study describes a modified reduction-osmication method for staining human scalp hair that improves reagent penetration and visualization of hair cortex features using transmission electron microscopy.

This study found that both a high dose of CPA and GnRHa are effective for treating hirsutism in hyperandrogenic women, but GnRHa with add-back therapy may lead to a longer remission period.

This case report indicates that HAIR-AN syndrome can lead to severe hyperandrogenism with virilisation signs in women after excluding tumoral causes and identifying signs of insulin resistance.

Androgens like testosterone affect skin health and can lead to conditions such as acne and hair loss, with various treatments available.

This publication discusses the political rationale behind the French regulator ANSM's decision to withdraw Diane®-35 from the market, in response to health concerns associated with third-generation oral contraceptives.

This study reported that the combination of EE-CPA and raloxifene effectively manages PCOS-related infertility, enhancing pregnancy outcomes through improvements in metabolism, sex hormones, ovarian function, and endometrial receptivity, without significantly increasing adverse effects.

In this study, researchers observed that basil seed exudate provides a protective barrier against lead toxicity in the initial stages of seed germination, even though root hairs eventually suffer from necrosis, demonstrating acute but non-lethal phytotoxicity of lead in agricultural contexts.

This study found that women with androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata had significantly lower serum ferritin levels compared to women without hair loss.

This review discusses the management of androgenic disorders in women, highlighting that treatment is generally more effective than recognized, though improvement may take weeks or months to appear.

Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in causing acne, and treatments like hormone control pills and hormone-blocking medications can help.

This review discusses the impact of hormonal changes on female skin and hair loss and suggests that antiandrogenic treatments may help mitigate these effects, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reviewed various dermatological conditions associated with oral contraceptive use, highlighting increased pigmentation, decreased sebum production, and changes in hair growth, among other effects.

This review discusses the roles of androgens and estrogens in skin functions and disorders, and highlights the use of estrogen-progestin treatments and anti-androgens in managing hirsutism and acne, without reporting new results.

This review discusses various biologics for hair aging but reports no agent capable of reversing the natural aging process of hair.

The birth control pill containing ethinylestradiol and chlormadinone may help treat acne and other skin and hair conditions related to hormones.

In this study, Tithonia diversifolia extract was found to improve certain digestive parameters in crossbred sheep but did not enhance growth performance, as the improvements in digestion did not translate into increased body weight or feed conversion.

This review discusses mathematical correlations in hair restoration surgery but reports no new research findings.

This review describes the dermatological uses of the contraceptive ethinylestradiol/chlormadinone acetate for conditions linked to high androgen levels and reports no new clinical results.

The 1% ethyl acetate fraction ethosomal gel from Nothopanax scutellarium leaves promotes hair growth but can mildly irritate the skin.

In this animal study on albino rats, researchers reported that Tribulus terrestris extract significantly reduced liver damage markers caused by cyproterone acetate, suggesting a protective effect on liver function against this drug's hepatotoxicity.

This study found a strong dose-related increase in the risk of intracranial meningiomas associated with high doses of cyproterone acetate, with some reduction in risk after stopping the treatment.

This study found that combining cyproterone acetate with testosterone enanthate was highly effective in suppressing spermatogenesis, suggesting potential as a reversible male contraceptive method.

In this retrospective study, cyproterone acetate treatment in late-pubertal trans-girls was found to be generally safe and led to mild feminizing effects, with more rapid feminization occurring when combined with estrogens.

This report describes a case of meningioma in a transwoman treated long-term with estradiol and cyproterone acetate, suggesting possible concern over female sex steroids and meningioma risk.

This review summarizes the use of chlormadinone acetate for hormone replacement therapy and contraception, highlighting its anti-androgenic effects, contraceptive efficacy, and clinical tolerability, without offering new clinical results.

This study reported that both drospirenone and chlormadinone acetate oral contraceptives had similar beneficial effects on clinical, metabolic, and hormonal parameters in women with polycystic ovary syndrome over six months.

The researchers concluded that after the 2013 EMA recommendation, there was an overall reduction in CPA/EE prescriptions, but no substantial change in patient diagnoses or potential concurrent hormonal contraceptive use.

This study suggests that geranyl acetate may offer protective, anti-inflammatory, and cytoprotective effects against PPD-induced toxicity in keratinocyte cells, indicating its potential as a plant-derived treatment.
