research Retinol-Binding Protein 4, Leptin, and Insulin Resistance in Idiopathic Hirsutism and Hirsute Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with idiopathic hirsutism and PCOS have higher RBP4 levels, and PCOS is linked to greater insulin resistance; weight management may help both conditions.
research Evidence-Based and Potential Benefits of Metformin in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Comprehensive Review
Metformin helps with menstrual cycles and insulin levels in PCOS but is less effective for hair growth, diabetes prevention, and weight loss, and may improve fertility and reduce diabetes risk.
research Androgen Conjugates: Physiology and Clinical Significance
Androgen conjugates might be better indicators of skin sensitivity to hormones in women with excessive hair growth.
research Determination of Rat 5α-Reductase Type 1 Isozyme Activity and Its Inhibition by Novel Steroidal Oxazolines
New steroidal compounds moderately block an enzyme related to testosterone conversion, less effectively than finasteride.
research Inhibition of Rat 5α-Reductase Activity and Testosterone-Induced Sebum Synthesis in Hamster Sebocytes by an Extract of Quercus Acutissima Cortex
An extract from Quercus acutissima bark was found to reduce sebum production and block an enzyme linked to acne.
research Vitamin D Resistance and Alopecia
Vitamin D is important for more than just bone health.
research Acitretin
Acitretin treats severe skin conditions but requires careful monitoring due to serious side effects.
research Liver Transplantation for Propionic Acidemia in Children
Liver transplantation is a viable option for children with propionic acidemia, improving quality of life and diet, but does not remove all risks and long-term brain outcomes are uncertain.
research Sulfation of Minoxidil by Liver Sulfotransferase
Liver enzyme helps minoxidil work better for blood vessel relaxation.
research Evaluation of Serum Ferritin, Creatinine, and Liver Enzymes in Patients with Beta-Thalassemia After Administration of Deferasirox
The study on 85 patients with ß-thalassemia in Kirkuk, Iraq, found that deferasirox, an oral iron chelator, effectively reduced serum ferritin levels in 55.3% of patients, indicating a decrease in iron overload. Some adverse effects were observed, including elevated serum creatinine in 25.8% of patients, elevated liver enzymes, and hair loss in 2 patients. Despite these side effects, deferasirox was generally well-tolerated, and its adverse effects could be managed by adjusting the dosage. The study concludes that deferasirox is a suitable treatment for managing iron overload in ß-thalassemia patients.
