In this case study, a 26-year-old female with PLEC mutations and features of muscular dystrophy and myasthenia gravis showed significant improvement in symptoms following steroid treatment.

This pharmacovigilance study analyzed FAERS data and found that finasteride is more frequently associated with neuropsychiatric reactions like depression and suicide risk, especially in younger men using it for alopecia, compared to dutasteride.

This study examined the cardiovascular safety of oral minoxidil, used off-label for androgenetic alopecia, particularly as its usage expands in real-world settings, although specific results were not detailed in the abstract.

In this study, analysis of FDA adverse event reports revealed that topical finasteride was associated with fewer post-finasteride syndrome-like adverse events than oral finasteride, but many reports lack critical data, suggesting caution in attributing causality.

This study found that reports of suicidal ideations linked to oral finasteride were significantly higher in 2013–2018 and 2019–2023 compared to 2006–2011, potentially due to increased awareness of post-finasteride syndrome from 2012 onward. No such signals were seen with oral dutasteride.

This study investigated paternal drug exposure using FDA data and identified significant associations with reproductive health risks, including congenital anomalies linked to immunosuppressive drugs, and emphasized specific risk combinations like biologics and abortion, diazepam and small for date baby, and finasteride and cryptorchidism.

Adding human hair to cement can make it tougher and better insulated but also more porous.

In this study using diabetic rat models, the combination of AMD3100 and low-dose FK506 reduced wound healing time and improved microcirculation in diabetic foot ulcers, indicating a promising new systemic therapy.

In a study on wound healing, researchers described injectable POEGMA‐DA hydrogels as a promising non-toxic alternative to traditional wound closure methods, showing effective tissue adhesion and enhanced regeneration of skin structures in a mouse model without significant inflammation.

This study found that Scalp med®, a solution including minoxidil, significantly improved hair count and thickness in men with androgenetic alopecia after 24 weeks of treatment.

This case report describes the first known instance of a patient with myotonic dystrophy presenting with type I diabetes, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, and follicular variant papillary thyroid cancer, suggesting a potential link between these conditions.

This review provides an overview of microneedle-assisted photomedicine, detailing diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, design principles, and challenges for translating this approach to skin disease management.

Using a call center to collect data in a trial for eye disease in diabetics led to high response rates and very little missing information.

Skin changes can help identify eating disorders early.

This study reports that a clinical sequence can help eye care practitioners identify Demodex mites, which are often underdiagnosed and undertreated in ocular surface diseases.

This study found that dimethyl fumarate improved delayed wound healing in Il36rn-/- mice by reducing neutrophil extracellular trap formation and oxidative stress.

This study found that Dock5 plays a crucial role in keratinocyte function and wound healing, with its expression reduced in diabetic models but improving healing when restored.

This study found that the E3 ligases NEDD4 and NEDD4L regulate intestinal stem cell priming by degrading the LGR5 receptor, and their loss leads to increased Wnt activation and crypt proliferation, which in turn accelerates intestinal tumor progression in mice.

This study investigated whether individuals with psoriasis have higher MDS-16 scores and potentially more maladaptive daydreaming compared to healthy individuals.

This case report describes a 58-year-old man with pretibial myxedema and hyperthyroidism, highlighting his cardiac symptoms, exophthalmos, weight loss, and specific dermatological findings over the last four years.

This study demonstrates that FMOD deficiency in mice alters TGF-β ligand and receptor expression during wound healing stages, leading to delayed wound closure and increased scar size.

This study found that megestrol acetate increases the proliferation, migration, and adipogenic differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells through glucocorticoid receptor phosphorylation.

This study found that dissolving microneedle array patches containing mesoporous silica nanoparticles can deliver antigen-loaded nanoparticles into mice effectively, inducing strong immune responses similar to traditional subcutaneous injection.

Low doses of oral minoxidil, a hair loss treatment, can cause temporary morning swelling around the eyes, but it's not serious and can disappear with continued use or dose adjustment.

This study tested a hydrogel microneedle patch delivering T reg attractants in mice with alopecia, finding it boosted regulatory T cell numbers at the site, leading to hair regrowth without causing peripheral immunosuppression, suggesting a potential new approach for autoimmune skin disease treatment.

This letter discusses a case of iododerma in pregnancy linked to iodinated multivitamin use, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that a newly created biomimetic microneedle platform effectively expedited wound repair in diabetic animal models by reducing inflammation, enhancing angiogenesis, and promoting skin regeneration through targeted drug delivery and immune response modification.

This study found that topical application of N,N-dimethylglycine sodium salt increased dermal blood flow and velocity in human subjects, likely through its effects on endothelial cells and NO-dependent vasodilation.

In this study, treatment of alopecia areata, totalis, and universalis with methyl prednisolone and ACTH injections resulted in complete regrowth in 62% of male and 58% of female patients.

This study found that fibroblasts from Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy patients with certain genetic mutations overexpress markers of fibrosis, and gene correction techniques reduced fibrogenic molecule expression in cell models, suggesting potential therapeutic applications.
