This study identified a mutation in the KRTHB6 gene in two monilethrix families of Indian origin, linking specific genetic variations to different severities of hair defects within the families.

In this descriptive research conducted in Tirunelveli City, Tamil Nadu, the study identified common health problems among radiographers, including tiredness, body pain, and emotional disturbances, highlighting the need to address these issues to ensure accurate disease diagnosis and treatment in healthcare settings.

This study found that supraphysiological and physiological androgen levels inhibited U937 macrophages' phagocytosis of MRSA compared to untreated controls, but AR antagonism reversed this effect, suggesting targeting AR or using 5alpha-reductase inhibitors might aid bacterial clearance in elderly males' chronic wounds.

This study found that rosemary extracts, both individually and in combination as shampoo and hair tonic, stimulated significant hair growth in male C57BL6//BIOU mice, even surpassing the growth achieved with the commercial drug 5% minoxidil.

This article reviews the role of LMNA gene mutations, particularly in Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome, but does not report new experimental findings.

This abstract reports no new research findings and instead provides information about the JAMA website features and usage terms.

In this study, rosemary was found to be a common hair care choice among adults in Saudi Arabia, with users reporting mixed perceptions of benefits and side effects; age and prior hair loss treatment use influenced these self-reported outcomes.

This case report suggests that long-acting injectable risperidone may induce hirsutism in some patients, and clinicians should monitor for this potential side effect when prescribing this antipsychotic.

This study found that psychiatric adverse drug reactions were more frequently reported with finasteride than with dutasteride, but it remains unclear if there is a causal relationship.

This study found that stress hormones, particularly CRF, can inhibit hair growth and induce hair loss by affecting human dermal papilla cells and hair follicles, suggesting a functional HPA axis in these cells.

Higher monocyte counts may predict poor response to adalimumab in hidradenitis suppurativa patients.

This study reports an improvement in lymphomatoid papulosis type A in a 52-year-old patient who concurrently used hormone-replacement therapy.

This study found that 2-ethylhexanoic acid impaired fertility in Wistar rats and delayed postnatal development of pups, suggesting potential reproductive toxicity at certain dosages.

This article discusses the classification of mental retardation based on IQ ranges and provides no new experimental findings.

This study utilized a sequence-structure alignment approach to improve the characterization of Class A Rhodopsin GPCR superfamily, including orphan and unclassified receptors, through evolutionary analysis.

In this first reported case, a 42-year-old female with Parry Romberg Syndrome was treated using hyaluronic acid filler, which the authors suggest may serve as a safe, simple, and cost-effective alternative to more complex surgical methods.

This article discusses the evaluation of minimal residual disease in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia using molecular methods and reports no new findings.

This study suggests that minoxidil may improve hypotrichosis in patients with ARWH due to LIPH variants, but a possible genetic factor could affect its efficacy within families.

This study found that a shampoo with a selective TAAR agonist reduced hair shedding during brushing by 31% in women and contracted the arrector pili muscle.

This study found that a combination of 5% hexane extract of Curcuma aeruginosa and 5% minoxidil slowed hair loss and increased hair growth in men with androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, researchers observed a dose-dependent occurrence of persistent radiation-induced alopecia in patients with primary CNS tumors or head and neck sarcomas, noting distinctive patterns and features, and suggesting potential benefits of topical minoxidil and procedural interventions for treatment.

This study found that ranitidine and finasteride may have cardiovascular and renal protective effects in mice by inhibiting TMAO synthesis and improving gut microbiota composition.

This study found that nuclear androgen receptors are not necessary for androgen self-administration, suggesting that plasma membrane receptors might be involved.

This article reviews current understanding of Hutchinson–Gilford Progeria Syndrome and suggests RNA-based treatments show promise, but no new clinical findings are reported.

The gene for Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis is located on chromosome 8p21, near the hairless gene.

This study identified a missense mutation in the rat Desmoglein 4 gene, causing abnormal hair shaft development in lanceolate hair mutant rats by disrupting a critical calcium binding site.

This study found pathogenic mutations in genes EDA, EDA1R, and EDARADD in 101 out of 124 hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia patients, revealing 23 novel mutations and indicating genetic variability.

In this study, a modified Ferriman-Galwey score greater than 4 was found to be effective for diagnosing hirsutism in Asian women, highlighting key areas such as the upper lip, thighs, and lower abdomen.

This study found that a medication error reporting system can significantly enhance patient safety through active participation of all stakeholders, with clinical pharmacists playing a crucial role in collaboration with other healthcare professionals.

This study suggests that using opioids along with 5αRI may reduce opioid use disorder risk in humans, supporting similar findings from animal studies.
