The EFSA panel concluded that coriander seed oil is safe for use as a novel food ingredient at the proposed intake levels for healthy adults.

This study found that both ethanol and aqueous extracts of Lepidium sativum seeds improved insulin signaling and reduced obesity-related metabolic changes in high-fat diet-fed rats, suggesting potential as a dietary supplement.

This article discusses laboratory and physical markers that may help detect androgenic anabolic steroid abuse in athletes and reports no new primary research results.

This study found that PGA-4HGF nanoparticles enhanced hair growth in mice more effectively than 4HGF alone by increasing anagen phase duration and dermal papilla cell proliferation.

This study in rats found that a new hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin formulation of minoxidil reduced the adverse cardiovascular and proliferative effects seen with traditional minoxidil solutions.

This study observed that testosterone therapy in transgender men enhances both physical and mental health, is safe in the short and middle term with proper follow-up, and highlights the need for endocrinologists to provide gender-affirming care despite its limited presence in medical education.

This study found that in a mouse model of Leigh syndrome, rapamycin alters brain proteome and may extend survival by targeting protein kinase C.

This review discusses how skin lesions and haircoat changes in adult horses can indicate systemic diseases, emphasizing the need for veterinary evaluation, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells improved liver function and pathology in a mouse model of liver cirrhosis, potentially by inhibiting the TGF-β/Smad pathway and reducing hepatic stellate cell activation.

In this research, animal tests confirmed that chromium supplementation effectively maintains glycaemic and insulinaemic balance and affects certain hormone levels, but the authors note that clinical evidence for chromium's benefits in PCOS treatment remains sparse and inconsistent, warranting further exploration.

This review discusses the structural and functional aspects of β-thymosin in invertebrates and reports no new experimental findings.

This study used homology modeling to create a detailed in silico structure of 5α-reductase type II, suggesting it can aid in designing steroid reductase drugs.

This study found that finasteride caused adverse effects on liver, kidney, and heart tissues in female mice, raising concerns about its potential use in females for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that Origanum vulgare extract significantly ameliorated finasteride-induced liver and kidney damage in mice by improving biochemical indices, reducing inflammation, and enhancing antioxidant status in a dose-dependent manner.

In this review, anabolic steroid use was reported to increase risks such as cardiovascular issues, liver damage, endocrine disruptions, and musculoskeletal injuries, with psychological impacts also noted, underscoring the need for education and preventive strategies.

This review explores how hair dyes and perms can damage hair structure and notes that while some adverse outcomes like skin irritation and allergic reactions have been reported, evidence from human studies remains inconsistent regarding potential risks, including cancer.

This chapter discusses genetic polymorphisms related to phenotypes that differentiate between populations and reports no new results; it highlights the role of DNA technology in understanding human adaptation history.

This study found that experimentally induced hypothyroidism in rats is associated with impaired skin structure, but topical application of triiodothyronine (T3) improved these changes to resemble normal skin.

This study provides a comprehensive analysis of anabolic-androgenic steroids, reporting that their use enhances muscle mass but is associated with significant health issues including cardiac muscle hypertrophy, liver disease, and changes in gender characteristics, emphasizing the need for patient awareness of these risks.

The researchers reported that integrating the naturopathic complex Detoxil into standard therapy for chronic dermatoses enhances detoxification, normalizes metabolic markers, and accelerates symptom resolution, suggesting potential benefits for managing skin conditions.

This review outlines the major health consequences of anabolic-androgenic steroid abuse, with a focus on sexual and reproductive issues, and suggests management prioritizes cessation and relapse prevention due to lack of robust randomized trials.

This review systematically evaluates Erzhi Pill's formulation, therapeutic potential, and challenges, exploring its traditional applications and modern prospects for developing integrated quality control and precise medical strategies.

This study found that bis-benzylisoquinoline and Amaryllidaceae alkaloids, especially aromoline, show potential as antiviral agents, suggesting they could serve as foundations for developing new treatments against coronaviruses by enhancing the understanding of their structure-activity relationships.

In this case study, a 5-month-old cat with dermatophytosis caused by Microsporum canis showed resolution of skin symptoms and hair regrowth after receiving topical antifungal shampoo and systemic itraconazole treatment for two weeks.

In this analysis, Professor Ma Shuanquan attributes androgenetic alopecia to liver, spleen, and kidney dysfunctions and describes a treatment approach using Chinese medicines focused on these organs, suggesting individualization and noting significant therapeutic effects.

This chapter reviews the presence and roles of stem cells in various body systems, focusing on their lifelong function in animals and humans, and reports no new experimental findings.
