This study found that activin affects both stromal cells and keratinocytes in skin morphogenesis and repair, with dose-dependent effects on keratinocytes demonstrated through transgenic mouse models.

This study found that Red Palm Oil was the most effective among tested oils in promoting hair growth in rabbits.

This study identified six belief themes that may contribute to hairpulling behavior in women with trichotillomania, suggesting an important role for cognitions in this disorder's phenomenology.

This study found that finasteride significantly alters urinary steroid profiles, complicating the detection of steroid abuse in doping-control analysis by potentially causing false-negative results.

In this study, researchers found that platelet-rich plasma therapy demonstrated significantly higher efficacy than topical minoxidil for treating androgenetic alopecia in a Pakistani population, with a 91.7% negative hair pull rate compared to 69.4% for minoxidil after 12 weeks.

This study found that androgenetic alopecia causes significant psychological distress, particularly in women, who exhibit a more negative body image and less adaptive functioning compared to controls.

This study indicates that MPZL3 negatively regulates sebaceous gland size in mice by controlling sebocyte proliferation, with implications for disorders like acne and psoriasis.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata had significantly lower Vitamin D levels compared to controls, with a negative correlation between Vitamin D levels and disease severity.

This retrospective study reported that in HER-2-negative metastatic breast cancer patients, anlotinib combined with taxane/capecitabine showed superior disease control rate, progression-free survival, and overall survival compared to bevacizumab plus chemotherapy, with both treatments having tolerable safety profiles.

This study of Egyptian patients with alopecia areata found no significant difference in Staphylococcus epidermidis gene expression between patients and healthy controls but reported a negative correlation between Staphylococcus epidermidis expression and the severity of alopecia areata, suggesting potential involvement in disease severity.

This study found that treating asymptomatic or mild COVID-19 with cepharanthine did not significantly reduce the time to a negative test result, though 60 mg/day showed a non-significant trend needing further validation.

In this study, 60 mg/day of Cepharanthine significantly reduced the time to a negative COVID-19 test among de novo infected patients with good compliance, though 120 mg/day showed no such effect.

This article reviews the negative effects of androgenic disorders and highlights that newer oral contraceptives with less androgenic progestins may reduce these effects and improve compliance, but it reports no new results.

This review examines the negative relationship between polycystic ovarian syndrome and cardiovascular health, suggesting treatments like oral contraception and lifestyle changes may mitigate these effects, but highlights the need for further research.

A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.

In this study, patients with alopecia areata displayed altered scalp microbiota compared to healthy controls, and treatment with JAK kinase inhibitors largely restored these microbial changes, providing insights into the potential role of the skin microbiome in alopecia areata.

In this pilot study, cryotherapy using a device that precisely controls cooling duration improved hair regrowth for patchy alopecia areata when applied for 20 seconds with two freeze-thaw cycles, similar to standard triamcinolone acetonide injections, but not when applied for 10 seconds.

In this study, content analysis of German YouTube videos revealed that women frequently experience both positive and negative symptoms related to oral contraceptive use and discontinuation, with bodily sensations often influencing their decisions to start or stop the pill.

This study reported that a single-session scalp procedure combining several components, including PRP and botulinum toxin, was associated with significant improvements in hair thickness and reduced vellus hair proportion in androgenetic alopecia patients, although further controlled trials are needed to establish causation.

In this study, the analysis of PCOS subreddit data revealed that lifestyle changes and supplements were perceived positively for managing PCOS symptoms, while contraceptives were often linked with negative experiences, except when they included anti-androgenic progestins.

Negative Pressure Wound Therapy reduces surgical site infections and speeds up healing.

This review discusses the role of the androgen receptor in breast cancer as a prognostic indicator and potential therapeutic target, highlighting its controversial therapeutic value and the need for further study.

This study found that overexpression of miR-214 in keratinocytes inhibits hair follicle development and cycling by targeting β-catenin in the Wnt signaling pathway.

This case report describes a sarcoptic mange outbreak caused by Trixacarus caviae in a guinea pig breeding colony, which was successfully treated with subcutaneous ivermectin injections and preventive spraying.

This study found that patients with androgenetic alopecia had significantly higher serum NF-κB levels compared to controls, and these levels correlated with disease severity, suggesting NF-κB as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target.

This study observed that patients with post-COVID telogen effluvium had lower serum ferritin levels than controls, but the levels were not indicative of nonanemic iron deficiency.

This randomized controlled trial found that vitamin D supplementation significantly improved various post-COVID-19 symptoms, such as fatigue and sleep disturbances, compared to placebo over two months, emphasizing the role of vitamin D deficiency in persistent symptoms among post-COVID-19 patients.

This study found that women with androgenetic alopecia reported more psychosocial problems and lower self-esteem than women with non-visible skin conditions and men with androgenetic alopecia, which they attributed to their hair loss.
