This review discusses the phytochemistry, pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, and standardization of Forsythiae Fructus, detailing both unripe and ripe forms, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reports that patients with primary cicatricial alopecia have distinct bacterial colonization and higher antibiotic resistance compared to those with non-inflammatory scalp conditions, indicating the importance of bacterial culture and susceptibility testing for targeted therapies.

Nutrition plays a key role in managing skin disorders, with specific dietary changes helping improve conditions like acne, dermatitis, psoriasis, alopecia, and skin cancer.

This report from the National Registry of Drug-Induced Ocular Side Effects identifies 56 cases of alopecia associated with the use of topical ophthalmic β-blockers.

This study found that deletion of c-Jun and JunB in mouse bulge hair follicle stem cells was sufficient to trigger psoriasis-like skin disease through thymic stromal lymphopoietin signaling.

In this study, ustekinumab did not promote hair regrowth in human patients with alopecia areata or prevent disease development in an AA mouse model, suggesting limited efficacy for this treatment.

This article discusses the potential of acupuncture as a complementary or alternative therapy for PCOS, highlighting experimental evidence of its positive effects on reproductive and metabolic function, but reports no new clinical results.

This systematic review found that 5%–10% of COVID-19 cases develop long-term sequelae like neurocognitive impairment and cardiovascular damage, with higher risks in women and severe cases. Vaccination may reduce these risks, but further evidence is needed to confirm its efficacy.

This source outlines various antiandrogen and androgen inhibitor drugs used to treat cutaneous disorders of hyperandrogenism, detailing their mechanisms, uses, dosages, and side effects, with emphasis on spironolactone, finasteride, dutasteride, and oral contraceptives.

This review synthesizes recent research on exosomes, highlighting their role as key modulators in regenerative outcomes and suggesting they may offer advantages over stem cell-based therapies in process and regulation.

This study supports the conclusion that the hormetic dose-response model is the most prevalent and fundamental model in biological and biomedical sciences, applicable to a wide range of clinical conditions.

This study suggests that adjusting the ratios of keratin-associated proteins to keratin intermediate filaments can create keratin/chitosan hydrogels with more consistent gel properties for tissue engineering.

This study presented a new two-dimensional model that successfully predicts transdermal permeation of caffeine, highlighting the significant role of the follicular pathway in increasing systemic bioavailability.

This study developed a theoretical model that suggests finasteride may completely inhibit 5AR type 2, but not sufficiently suppress type 1, leading to only partial reduction of dihydrotestosterone at clinical doses.

This review examines the cognitive effects of medications for lower urinary tract symptoms and indicates that muscarinic antagonists, particularly oral oxybutynin, pose the highest risk for cognitive impairment.

Active oxygen species might be involved in skin tumor growth, but their exact role is unclear.

This study found that short-term exposure to PM2.5 and Asian dust particles did not increase skin symptoms in schoolchildren.

This study compiled an archive of 684 genes associated with monogenic hair disorders, identifying previously unrecognized components of Hippo signaling and proposing a new biologically-grounded disease taxonomy.

This study found that SMAD2 overexpression in human hair follicle stem cells promoted differentiation and apoptosis while inhibiting proliferation, and Smurf2 upregulation limited mouse wound healing by suppressing the SMAD2/NANOG/DNMT1 axis.

This review discusses the genetic basis of ectodermal dysplasia, highlighting that identification of gene pathologies enhances diagnosis and supports prenatal DNA testing, but it reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a rare occurrence of giant bilateral adrenal myelolipomas in a 28-year-old female with CAH, emphasizing that large, hormonally active, or painful myelolipomas should be surgically removed.

This thesis explores both environmental and genetic factors in prostate cancer, focusing on surrogate hormone markers, medical radiation, family history, and genetic polymorphisms related to DNA repair and hormone marker genes, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study concluded that dermatologists are integral to the care of cancer survivors by shifting focus from symptomatic skin treatment to preventive and rehabilitative strategies that enhance long-term skin health and quality of life post-oncology therapy.

This review reports that hair follicles are dynamic neuro-immuno-endocrine organs with intrinsic signaling pathways, which play a crucial role in hair disorders like alopecia. It highlights emerging regenerative approaches targeting these pathways for hair restoration.

This mini-review examines ethnopharmacological approaches to manage hair loss in postmenopausal women, highlighting promising botanical remedies like saw palmetto, rosemary oil, and ginseng. The authors underscore a need for more interdisciplinary trials and focus on traditional remedies' multifaceted benefits, while noting gaps in menopausal-specific evidence.

In this study, researchers found that CD4 T cells from the skin draining lymph nodes of mice with alopecia areata can transfer the disease to recipient mice, highlighting the key role of these cells and their interaction with CD8 T cells in the disease's development.

This study found that the prevalence of androgenetic alopecia increases with age among both men and women in Maryborough, Australia, with 57% of women and 73.5% of men aged 80 and over affected.

This study found that hypertrophic chondrocytes at the fracture callus border may convert to osteoblasts, influenced by vasculature and pluripotency gene expression.

This review indicates that estrogen loss during menopause significantly impacts skin health, while estrogen treatment may increase skin collagen, thickness, and elasticity, though effects on other skin characteristics are inconsistent.

This study found that topical niacinamide significantly improved the appearance of wrinkles, skin yellowing, and elasticity in aging facial skin over 12 weeks.
