This review discusses the drug repurposing of cardiovascular medications like aspirin and statins for new uses, including potential anti-tumor effects, noting promising experimental outcomes but less conclusive clinical trials, particularly in the field of cancer treatment.

This article reviews various diagnostic tools for hair disorders, describing methods ranging from invasive to noninvasive, but reports no new research findings or clinical results.

This study found that 1-year use of 5alpha-reductase inhibitors, dutasteride or finasteride, significantly lowered dihydrotestosterone levels without adversely affecting bone density, lipids, or hemoglobin in normal men.

This review discusses current and emerging drug therapies for treating androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata, and reports no clinical results; it highlights a need for improved and novel treatments.

This study found that oral finasteride was more effective than 5% topical minoxidil in treating mild to severe androgenetic alopecia in males, with both treatments deemed effective and safe over 12 months.

This study reports that the TrichoScan method effectively measures hair growth parameters and detected significant improvements in hair counts and thickness in men with androgenetic alopecia after finasteride treatment.

This review examines factors influencing dermatophyte infection in companion animals, focusing on prevalence, clinical signs, pathogenesis, immune response, and the impact of cortisol and cytokines, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses genetic and nutritional causes of hair loss, highlighting that around 90% of treated men show noticeable hair regrowth with a dual inhibitor, while women's hair loss may improve by correcting iron and l-lysine deficiencies.

This study found that ectopic expression of Whn in transgenic mice caused impaired differentiation in epidermis and hair follicles, with hair growth defects and severe urinary tract issues leading to hydronephrosis.

This review discusses laser/light treatments for pattern hair loss and reports no clinical validation of current devices; experts recommend physician evaluation to exclude other medical conditions.

This review discusses phytotherapy options for managing benign prostatic hyperplasia, noting some herbal agents show promise in trials for mild-moderate symptoms but more evidence is needed for others.

This study found that oral JAK inhibitors, ruxolitinib and tofacitinib, are effective and well-tolerated for treating severe alopecia areata, with a similar degree of hair regrowth and relapse rates, but ruxolitinib induced faster initial hair regrowth.

This study reported no significant difference in efficacy or sexual dysfunction risk between 5α-reductase inhibitors and placebo for androgenetic alopecia, suggesting that dutasteride 0.5 mg may be considered pending further research.

This study suggests that 5 mg/day oral finasteride may increase hair density and thickness in normoandrogenic Asian women with female pattern hair loss over 12 months.

This article discusses the bi-compartmental organization of hair follicle stem cell niches for balancing stem cell cycling and organ growth and proposes similar structures may exist in other adult stem cell niches but reports no new experimental results.

This study analyzed changes in hair diameter and density with age in Caucasian women, highlighting variations in perception of hair amount over time.

This review discusses the progress and challenges in delivering CRISPR/Cas9 systems for in vivo genome editing, highlighting current methods and opportunities for future therapeutic applications.

This article reviews hair analysis for drug detection and its applications in various fields, but reports no new research findings, emphasizing the need to consider the method's complexities and potential pitfalls.

This study concluded that oral minoxidil is an effective and well-tolerated alternative to topical minoxidil for healthy patients struggling with application-related compliance issues.

This article reviews major types of genetic hair shaft defects and associated syndromes, emphasizing understanding histologic features and diagnostic methods, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that at least four different human sulfotransferase activities contribute to the sulfation of minoxidil, complicating predictions of individual responses based on ST levels.

This study suggests that finasteride-loaded liquid crystalline nanoparticles could be a viable alternative to oral administration for treating androgenetic alopecia due to their controlled release and skin permeation properties.

This paper describes various skin conditions associated with celiac disease and suggests that these dermatological signs might aid in diagnosing the disease, potentially improving with a gluten-free diet.

This review discusses recent advances in using nanocarrier-loaded gels for various medical applications and reports no new clinical results, highlighting potential advantages in therapeutic strategies.

This study found that 12 months of minoxidil treatment increased hair density and thickness in women with androgenetic alopecia, while alfatradiol primarily stabilized hair loss.

This study found that finasteride-loaded liposomal formulations achieved significantly higher skin permeation and deposition compared to conventional gels and solutions, suggesting potential for effective topical application.

This study found that low-level laser therapy was the most effective non-surgical treatment for androgenetic alopecia, although the overall quality of evidence supporting various therapies was generally low.

This article reviews therapy-related hair disorders in oncology patients, detailing underlying mechanisms and potential management strategies, but reports no new clinical findings.

This article reviews common skin eruptions in chemotherapy patients and discusses how recognizing these patterns can help avoid unnecessary changes to cancer treatment; it reports no new clinical results.
