This study found that people taking Serenoa repens for more than 14 days had a higher likelihood of serious adverse reactions, particularly when also using multiple or interacting supplements, although higher SR doses were linked to lower risk.

In this study, Alhanshali and co-authors reported that low-dose oral minoxidil, used for treating androgenetic alopecia, may worsen hangover symptoms in some male patients, potentially due to interactions with alcohol that affect blood pressure and metabolic processes.

This study found that targeting peroxisomal dysfunction with catalytic nanozymes enhanced hair follicle regeneration and outperformed minoxidil in promoting hair growth and maintaining efficacy in immunodeficient mice.

This review highlights the limited effectiveness of current unlicensed treatments for male subfertility, like hormonal therapy and antioxidants, and emphasizes new drug discovery methods such as high-throughput screening and drug repurposing to improve treatment development for male subfertility.

In this study, young albino rats whose mothers received high doses of rosemary extract during lactation showed negative health effects, including inhibited weight gain and organ damage, suggesting potential teratogenicity of rosemary extract when used in such conditions.

This study describes the efficacy of oral isotretinoin in treating severe, hormonal, and treatment-resistant acne, noting significant side effects that depend on dose and duration, including teratogenic risks and common issues like skin dryness, while underscoring the importance of systematic monitoring to mitigate adverse effects.

This review explores the advantages and limitations of using zebrafish models to study various skin diseases, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that most participants were unaware that their symptoms could be related to zinc deficiency, highlighting a lack of awareness about zinc's importance in health.

This article discusses the characteristics, diagnosis, and clinical presentation of different variants of lichen planopilaris on the scalp, with emphasis on cicatricial alopecia and the importance of clinical and trichoscopic monitoring; it presents no new clinical results.

This review discusses guidelines for acitretin use in dermatology, reporting its efficacy in severe psoriasis and recommendations for combination therapies, without providing new clinical trial results.

In this study of Bulgarian women, the waist-to-stature ratio was a better marker for an unfavorable metabolic profile than the waist-to-hip ratio among those with PCOS and obesity.

This case report examines the long-term impact of extensive anabolic-androgenic steroid use on metabolic and cardiovascular health, highlighting adverse effects to guide primary care for this patient group.

This case study describes a three-year-old girl who developed acute hepatitis and pancytopenia, potentially due to chronic use of Senna, highlighting possible liver and bone marrow toxicity.

In this study, oral tofacitinib was associated with significant hair regrowth in patients with alopecia areata, achieving over 50% reduction in Severity of Alopecia Tool scores, with mild side effects.

This study found that laboratory testing practices for alopecia areata vary among international hair experts, with the majority routinely conducting thyroid function and complete blood count tests, yet exhibiting diverse approaches toward testing for other conditions or before prescribing systemic therapy.

These guidelines recommend testing thyroid function in patients with obesity due to common hypothyroidism, and highlight that weight loss is crucial for addressing hormonal imbalances, with only modest weight loss benefits from treating endocrine disorders.

This review discusses the role of the enzyme Δ9-desaturase-1 in skin lipid regulation and whole-body energy balance in mice and reports no new experimental results.

This study discusses the potential association between low vitamin D levels and insulin resistance, suggesting that vitamin D deficiency may contribute to disorders like obesity and diabetes, but emphasizes the need for further research to confirm these links.

This study found that human follicular papilla cells in the scalp produce leptin and express functional leptin receptors, suggesting leptin's significant role in hair biology.

This review discusses the impact of melatonin and its metabolites on skin aging, summarizing how they may serve as "aging neutralizers" through their anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory properties, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of iron from cosmetic sources in skin nutrition and reports no clinical results, highlighting its significance for skin, hair, and nail health.

In isolated rat lymph vessels, this study found that ATP-sensitive potassium channel openers impair lymph contractions and reduce lymph flow, potentially contributing to peripheral edema.

This study found that alopecia areata patients had a slightly decreased overall cancer risk, with significantly lower risks for some cancers but higher risks for lymphoma, breast, kidney, and urinary bladder cancers.

This study found that iron therapy improved nonhematological symptoms and cognitive function in women with iron deficiency anemia, highlighting the need for attention to these symptoms in improving quality of life.

In this study, an immortalized MSC line from human adipose tissue showed potential for applications in regenerative medicine and inflammatory diseases through production of active factors, demonstrated in vitro.

In this study, researchers observed that EGFR deficiency in the epidermis affects gene expression related to cell differentiation and structure, highlighting spatial and temporal roles of EGFR during skin and hair follicle development.

This review describes how liver and kidney diseases and diabetes may affect ethyl glucuronide levels in hair, impacting forensic and clinical interpretations, but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that combining ultrapulsed fractional CO2 laser with bovine basic fibroblast growth factor significantly improved acne scars more effectively and safely compared to laser therapy alone.

This article reviews in-vitro and cell-free methods for assessing the efficacy of herbal ingredients in cosmetic formulations for skin health and hair growth, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that α-ketoglutarate protected dermal papilla cells from oxidative stress by enhancing the Nrf2 pathway and mitigating cell damage through the ERK/Nrf2 axis.
