This report describes a three-generation family with Cantú syndrome linked to a novel ABCC9 gene variant, featuring acromegaloid appearance and hypertrichosis without growth hormone abnormalities, and suggests a potential association with pituitary adenomas.

Phenobarbitone can cause severe and sometimes fatal skin reactions.

In this study, researchers found no significant difference in bladder cancer incidence between men treated with finasteride and those given a placebo, suggesting that reduced dihydrotestosterone levels may not impact bladder cancer risk.

This article discusses the relationship between anemia and skin disease but does not present new research findings.

In this study, minoxidil and human platelet lysate affected gene expression related to hair growth signaling pathways in mouse hair follicle cells.

In this study, fisetin applied to the dorsal skin of mice activated hair follicle stem cells through exosome secretion from keratinocytes, promoting hair growth.

This study explored using a chitosan oligomer coating for topical delivery of dutasteride-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers, aiming to reduce systemic exposure and cytotoxicity.

This review discusses the diverse clinical manifestations of mucopolysaccharidoses in children and emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and treatment initiation, but it reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, constitutive expression of Del1 in mice did not affect wound healing but was associated with increased hair growth following anagen induction.

This study suggests that in mice, plasmalogens may enhance hair growth by activating TRPC4 channels, which increases calcium influx and subsequently stimulates AMPK in hair follicles.

This study developed a method to culture and maintain chicken feather follicles in vitro, preserving structure and biology similar to their in vivo state, though some gene expression was altered.

This study reports that a young man with severe testotoxicosis maintained spontaneous fertility despite suppressed FSH levels, underscoring the importance of high intratesticular testosterone levels for spermatogenesis.

Contact dermatitis may speed up hair loss in some cases.

This review discusses management strategies for androgenic alopecia using plant derivatives and highlights the need for prolonged efficacy but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the multifactorial causes of female sexual dysfunction and reports no clinical results; it emphasizes the need for thorough evaluation before considering androgen therapy.

This prospective observational study investigated 200 patients with non-scarring alopecia, concluding that accurate classification combined with individualized treatment, including combination therapies, significantly improved outcomes over monotherapy with topical minoxidil.

This study found that publications on skin changes and treatments in pregnant women increased from 2013 to 2022, although their citation rates moderately decreased over the same period.

In this study, nonobese normotensive women with PCOS had higher left ventricular mass index compared to healthy controls, which was linked to inflammation and insulin resistance rather than androgen excess.

This study suggests that the expression of VLCFA biosynthesis genes is suppressed in skin hyperplasia and cancer, which could influence keratinocyte function.

The document concludes that scalp conditions have various causes and can present in many different ways.

This study found that both 5-ALA and Photofrin can effectively destroy human microvascular endothelial cells in vitro and cause tissue necrosis in vivo, with Photofrin showing greater efficacy at lower concentrations or power densities.

This review discusses the evolution of hair restoration surgical techniques, emphasizing that gradual improvements to existing methods are safer than radical changes, and reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses methods to enhance finasteride delivery to scalp skin using heat and chemical penetration enhancers and reports no new experimental findings.

The guideline recommends mental health involvement in diagnosing gender identity disorder and outlines hormone and surgical treatment protocols, emphasizing safety, informed consent, and long-term monitoring.

This study estimates the total cost of evaluating and treating polycystic ovary syndrome in reproductive-aged women in the United States to be $4.36 billion, suggesting more liberal screening could be beneficial.

In this study, cross-sex hormone therapy affected hair growth patterns differently, with estrogen reducing hair growth in male-to-female transsexuals and testosterone increasing it in female-to-male transsexuals; however, male typical hair diameters were not fully reached in the latter group after 12 months.

This study found that activating the Sonic hedgehog pathway in scarring wounds can remodel the dermis to promote hair follicle regeneration, highlighting a potential new approach to enhance healing.

This review discusses the impact of sleep cycles and circadian rhythms on nighttime exacerbation of atopic dermatitis in children and presents potential treatment options for related sleep disturbances, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that children are susceptible to SARS-CoV, with good short- to medium-term outcomes, and that sore throat and neutrophilia can predict severe illness.

This study found that androgens inhibit hair follicle stem cell differentiation by disrupting the Wnt signalling pathway in dermal papilla cells, but Wnt activation can restore differentiation.
