In this study, finasteride was found to reduce cholesterol levels and delay atherosclerosis in LDL receptor-deficient mice, and men using finasteride reported lower cholesterol levels, suggesting potential cardiovascular benefits by improving lipid profiles.

In this study, hydrolysates of lactic acid bacteria were found to enhance hair growth in C57BL/6 male mice more effectively than 5% minoxidil.

This review discusses the role of ion channels in ovarian cancer progression and chemotherapy resistance, highlighting their potential as targets for diagnosis and treatment, but reports no new clinical results.

This study identified compound heterozygous mutations, c.1101del and c.736 T > A, in the LIPH gene responsible for causing autosomal recessive woolly hair in a child, with c.1101del being a novel frameshift mutation.

This review discusses the paracrine effects of adipose tissue-derived stem cells on surrounding cells and tissues, noting their potential therapeutic benefits, but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the pseudo 'fringe sign' in frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting that it is not solely related to traction, and it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that a gintonin-enriched fraction from ginseng promoted hair growth in mice by stimulating dermal papilla cell proliferation and increasing hair follicles and weight.

This review discusses insights into the role of lipase H in controlling hair form and texture, emphasizing genetic mutations linked to autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, and reports no new experimental results.

LIPH mutations cause woolly hair in some Chinese people.

This review discusses major advances in understanding inherited hair diseases through genetic research and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the potential for new preventive and therapeutic tools.

In this review, the role of DHT in male-type obesity and metabolic diseases is discussed, with increased levels potentially exacerbating cardiovascular disease risk; the paper reports no new results.

This report describes two cases of white piedra caused by Trichosporon inkin in a northern climate, detailing clinical findings and diagnosis without presenting new experimental results.

This study reports the first familial case of alopecia linked to a novel homozygous variant in the DSP gene, which did not coincide with heart abnormalities despite prior associations.

This study found that long-term finasteride therapy in men with BPH worsened erectile dysfunction and reduced testosterone levels, while these effects were not observed with tamsulosin.

This study observed phenotypic diversity in hair loss among Japanese individuals homozygous for the LIPH c.736T>A mutation and suggests that differences in hair thickness may contribute to varying severities.

This article discusses the potential effects of exogenous testosterone, highlighting that its impact on prostate cancer progression, cardiovascular health, and behavior remains uncertain and needs further investigation.

Men with early balding should be checked for metabolic syndrome, as there's a link between the two.

This study found that long-term dutasteride therapy in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia worsened erectile dysfunction, reduced testosterone levels, and increased blood glucose and lipid profile, indicating negative metabolic impacts.

This study found that young women with PCOS had normal thyroid function but showed alterations in lipid metabolism, which may predispose unmarried women in this group to cardiovascular diseases.

This study found that men with androgenic alopecia had significantly higher levels of lipoprotein (a), a risk factor for coronary artery disease, compared to men with normal hair.
