This article presents an overview of uncombable hair syndrome, emphasizing its clinical and molecular characteristics and noting systemic manifestations such as neuropsychiatric, ophthalmic, and cardiopulmonary issues.

This study found that patients with androgenic alopecia had altered neuroactive steroid levels and depression symptoms after stopping finasteride treatment, suggesting lingering neuropsychiatric effects.

In this study, finasteride altered the expression of nine proteins in the rat nucleus accumbens, suggesting new therapeutic targets and mechanisms for its effects on neuropsychiatric conditions.

This case study describes a 45-year-old man who developed post-finasteride syndrome with various symptoms after stopping Finasteride, highlighting the condition's rarity and poorly understood pathophysiology.

This article discusses the complexities of diagnosing pituitary dependent hyperadrenocorticism in dogs and reports no new clinical findings, highlighting issues with varied symptoms and episodic hormone secretion complicating diagnosis.

This article reviews the clinical complications and increased mortality risks associated with Cushing's syndrome but does not present new clinical data; it emphasizes the need for prompt treatment to mitigate these risks.

Many recovered COVID-19 patients in Saudi Arabia still experience symptoms like fatigue and anxiety, especially older adults and those with other health issues.

This study found that certain gene sets, including those involved in ligand-gated ion channel signaling and cell adhesion, are associated with Tourette syndrome, suggesting a potential neurobiological basis for the disorder.

In this study, researchers found that Hashimoto's thyroiditis patients, despite being in euthyroid status, experienced more severe extrathyroidal symptoms compared to healthy controls, and elevated thyroid antibodies were linked to lower health-related quality of life and increased inflammation.

This review discusses post-finasteride syndrome, characterized by persistent symptoms despite discontinuation, and concludes that its existence cannot be confirmed; individualized assessment is advisable for those with a history of depression, sexual dysfunction, or infertility.

This review summarizes the association between 5-alpha reductase inhibitors and depression, discussing potential mechanisms such as neuroactive steroid alterations and neuroinflammation, but reports no new clinical results.

This study systematically reviewed recent literature to demonstrate that Long COVID involves complex, multi-systemic symptoms, influenced by factors such as pre-existing conditions and vaccination status, complicating its diagnosis and treatment.

This study suggests that low-dose radiotherapy may lead to temporary neurological improvements in some Alzheimer's patients, with 20% showing cognitive improvement at 6 months; it was well-tolerated, though larger trials are needed for confirmation.

This study identified gene sets associated with Tourette Syndrome, implicating Ligand-gated Ion Channel Signaling, Lymphocytic, and Cell Adhesion and Trans-synaptic Signaling processes in the disorder's neurobiology.

In this narrative review, researchers reported that oral finasteride significantly improved hair count and density in male androgenetic alopecia but had higher systemic exposure and potential side effects compared to topical formulations, which provided similar efficacy with lower systemic DHT suppression.

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 report describes two cases of glucocorticoid resistance syndrome highlighting genetic diversity; one patient improved with low-dose dexamethasone despite negative genetic testing, while the other is monitored with a novel NR3C1 variant.

Timely diagnosis of SLE is crucial due to symptom overlap with fibromyalgia.

This thesis found that in lupus nephritis, traditional classification criteria may not apply to patients with glomerular deposits without clinical SLE, indicating distinct prognostic and diagnostic challenges.

This article reviews the clinical signs, diagnostic approaches, and treatment options for hyperandrogenism in women, focusing on hirsutism and specifies that cyproterone acetate is effective for severe cases, but reports no new clinical results.

Foals with Rhodococcus equi infection often have other health problems that lower their chances of survival.

This study reports the discovery of endemic canine leishmaniasis in north central Oklahoma, suggesting the disease is present without dogs traveling abroad.

This study reported that Malassezia-associated dermatitis can cause pruritus in cats with feline paraneoplastic alopecia.

This case study suggests that systemic lupus erythematosus should be considered as a potential diagnosis for immune-mediated skin disease in horses, based on multisystemic signs and specific histopathologic and immunopathologic findings.

In this study, a 7-year-old male ferret was diagnosed with hyperadrenocorticism complicated by dilatative cardiomyopathy, chronic active hepatitis, and renal disease, following symptoms including progressive hair loss and severe dehydration.

This case report highlights that equine multisystemic eosinophilic epitheliotropic disease should be considered in horses presenting with skin lesions and gastrointestinal symptoms, as illustrated by the progression in a 5-year-old horse despite treatment.

This case report describes a 10-year-old British Shorthair cat with lethargy, weight loss, alopecia, and spontaneous pruritus, revealing severe skin changes upon examination.

In this case study, a miniature donkey with multisystemic eosinophilic epitheliotropic disease was euthanized due to laminitis despite treatment for pruritus, inappetence, hypertriglyceridemia, and alopecia.

This study observed mycobacterial infection with M. xenopi in a pet ferret, noting its resistance to doxycycline, and highlighted the potential zoonotic transmission risk associated with such infections.

In this case report, authors described a pet golden hamster with a confirmed adrenocortical adenocarcinoma, where laboratory testing and diagnostic imaging enabled antemortem diagnosis, despite the species' rarity for these procedures.
