This study in diabetic db/db mice found that treatment with the antihypertensive agents minoxidil or nebivolol stimulated elastogenesis and inhibited elastolysis, leading to restored elastic fibers, reduced aortic stiffening, and normalized blood pressure.

This study investigated the hair growth-promoting effect of topical nebivolol cream in mice, but the abstract does not provide specific results or conclusions.

This case study reported an improvement in lower limb edema for a patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus after starting dulaglutide treatment, suggesting a potential role of the drug in sodium retention disorders.

This chapter reviews adverse effects of anti-anginal and beta-blocker drugs, stating that starting a beta-blocker may temporarily affect driving ability, but it reports no new clinical findings.

In this rare case report, the researchers described a 66-year-old African woman with lipedematous alopecia, highlighting its clinical features, the significance of palpation in examinations, and the uncertainty of it being a distinct disease entity or a combination of two conditions.

Adding diltiazem to a beta blocker can cause dangerously slow heart rates.

Lichen Planus is a less common condition affecting skin and mucous membranes, with various types and associated risk factors, challenging to diagnose, significantly impacts life quality, and may have a risk of cancerous changes in oral lesions.

This study developed and validated a high-resolution mass spectrometry method to screen for prohibited substances and analyze six endogenous steroids in urine according to World Antidoping Agency requirements, demonstrating its effectiveness for antidoping analysis.

This review discusses how various reproductive factors are linked to increased risks of hypertension and cardiovascular disease, noting associations with impaired fetal growth, male hypogonadism, and effects of contraceptive use, but reports no new results.

This review focuses on the immunologic-based skin conditions that can result from β-blocker use, emphasizing potential adverse dermatologic effects rather than their therapeutic benefits.

This study demonstrated that a new topical treatment using ketotifen-loaded microneedles, designed for prolonged release, significantly reduced inflammatory markers in an animal model of allergic conjunctivitis, suggesting enhanced therapeutic delivery and sustained ocular benefits.

This joint position paper by several Polish medical societies examines guidelines and recommendations for managing conditions like obesity, hypertension, and liver disease, underscoring the importance of a collaborative, interdisciplinary approach in treatment. Results are not explicitly reported.

This study developed a caffeine-loaded solid lipid nanoparticle gel, observing significant reduction in subcutaneous fat tissue thickness in histological tests compared to an untreated group, suggesting it could effectively treat cellulite as a promising nanocosmeceutical gel.

Researchers created a reliable method to measure dexpanthenol and resorcinol in hair products.

This randomized controlled study reported that combining Ecklonia cava with Diane-35 significantly improved weight, waist circumference, hormonal balance, and inflammation markers in women with polycystic ovary syndrome over three months compared to Diane-35 alone.

This review study found that vesicular carriers like liposomes, niosomes, invasomes, and transferosomes can enhance drug penetration through follicles, benefiting treatments for alopecia, acne, and infections, as well as potentially facilitating systemic delivery of antihypertensive drugs and insulin.

This report details a six-month pharmacy internship in Portugal, where the author engaged in hospital and community pharmacy settings, and discusses scientific topics including obesity medication risks and alopecia treatment options. Results and conclusions are not explicitly reported.

Propranolol affects heart rate and renin levels in minoxidil-treated patients.

Nitrendipine and nifedipine effectively block muscle contractions, while papaverine relaxes them and minoxidil needs high amounts to work.

This report describes a case in which the use of the beta-blocker nadolol was associated with infiltrative dermatitis and significant alopecia, which resolved and resulted in total hair regrowth after discontinuation of the drug.

Metoprolol and propranolol may cause hair loss.

This study describes a case where metoprolol was associated with reversible telogen effluvium, suggesting a similar mechanism of alopecia as seen with other beta-adrenoceptor antagonists.

This review discusses the current understanding of propranolol's use in treating infantile hemangiomas, covering its indications, effectiveness, side effects, and ongoing clinical trials, without presenting new clinical results.

Minoxidil lowers blood pressure more effectively but has more side effects, so try hydralazine first.

This study found that minoxidil increased plasma renin activity in patients with hypertension through both an adrenergic mechanism related to heart rate changes and a secondary mechanism unrelated to propranolol.

This article reviews the use of hydralazine, minoxidil, and sodium nitroprusside in managing hypertension and hypertensive crises, noting specific indications, adverse effects, and the adjunctive therapies needed to mitigate side effects.

New drugs like clonidine and prazosin show promise for treating high blood pressure despite some side effects.

This study found that in a small cohort of patients with infections, tumor necrosis factor levels varied, challenging the interpretation that these levels are transient in gram-negative sepsis.
