In this study, the authors reported that the time elapsed since acute COVID-19 symptom onset was the only independent factor associated with developing post-acute COVID-19 syndrome.

This review highlights significant research trends and challenges in utilizing plant-derived extracellular vesicles for drug delivery and biomedical applications, emphasizing the need for standardized protocols and advanced purification technologies.

In this study, Brazilian postmenopausal women reported that menopause significantly deteriorates the quality of their skin, nails, and hair, negatively affecting self-esteem and quality of life, with a need for better understanding of hormone replacement therapy's dermatological effects.

This study used a newly validated method to find that one-year finasteride treatment resulted in no significant differences in urinary androgen and prostaglandin levels between male pattern baldness patients and normal controls.

This study found differences in urinary androgen and estrogen concentrations between male pattern baldness patients treated with finasteride and healthy controls, suggesting potential biomarkers for post-finasteride syndrome.

In this study, researchers investigated the immunohistopathological characteristics of the skin in individuals during the acute phase of chikungunya infection, revealing CHIKV antigens and inflammatory infiltrates in various skin components and highlighting the role of cytokines/chemokines in the disease's skin manifestations.

This study suggests that porphyra-334 may have antiaging properties, promoting collagen synthesis, improving periorbital wrinkles, and supporting hair follicle growth through gene regulation.

This review discusses the psychological and emotional effects of common dermatologic conditions and highlights their impact on quality of life, but it does not present new clinical results.

This study found that a solution containing 0.5% Camellia japonica placenta extract increased scalp moisture and reduced sebum content, dead keratin, and erythema in adult females, suggesting potential as a scalp treatment.

This study reported that knocking out the HR gene in pigs using CRISPR/Cas9 led to hairless eyelids and abnormalities in the thymus and peripheral blood, suggesting pigs as a model for human HR-related hair disorders.

In this study, the authors reported that frontal rhytidectomy with a pre-hairline incision effectively reduces a long forehead in select patients, with patients feeling the benefits outweighed the visibility of the scar.

This study found that in healthy young men, oral minoxidil at 5 mg/day led to increased carotid intima-media thickness and vascular aging, suggesting potential cardiovascular side effects at higher doses. A dose-dependent effect was observed, while dutasteride displayed a favorable vascular profile without significant changes.

This study found that oral minoxidil was associated with short-term improvements in clinical severity for androgenetic alopecia, whereas oral dutasteride did not show significant early clinical changes in the six-month follow-up.

In this retrospective analysis, dutasteride mesotherapy was used in 10 patients with androgenetic alopecia and resulted in hair density and width changes measured at the scalp, but specific efficacy results are not detailed in the abstract.

This study introduces the PRECISE scale, a quantitative tool to classify androgenetic alopecia, aiming to improve planning and outcomes for hair transplantation surgeries by evaluating the whole hairless and thinning areas.

This study found no significant difference in urinary androgen and prostaglandin levels between male pattern baldness patients treated with finasteride for one year and normal controls.

This article discusses metabolomics in the context of finasteride treatment for male pattern baldness and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that finasteride treatment reduced urinary androgen and prostaglandin levels in male pattern baldness patients to levels similar to healthy controls.

This study found that women have more and deeper perioral wrinkles than men, possibly due to having fewer skin appendages.

Psoriasis patients experience moderate functional impairment related to disease severity and less satisfaction.

This review discusses normal menstrual variations and common menstrual disorders in adolescent girls, focusing on symptoms, evaluation, and management, but does not present new clinical results.

Chikungunya can cause hyperpigmentation in children and should be considered in diagnosis.

A girl's hair loss from a pharmacy error improved after getting the right medicine.

This review suggests that decreased serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels may play a role in different types of non-scarring alopecia, but further studies are needed to explore vitamin D supplementation as a therapeutic option.

The skin acts like an endocrine organ, making hormones that affect skin diseases and respond to stress.

This case study describes a child with rickets and alopecia who responded to a small dose of 1-a-hydroxyvitamin D3, but her alopecia remained unchanged despite treatment.

This study introduced a simple and reliable in vitro assay capable of large-scale simultaneous screening of hair growth-promoting compounds using a 3D co-culture system of human dermal papilla and outer root sheath cells.

This article is a letter discussing optical coherence tomography-assisted diagnosis of follicular keratosis of the chin and reports no new research findings.

This case report highlights a rare presentation of hair-thread tourniquet syndrome in a two-year-old child, emphasizing that prompt identification and removal of the constricting fiber is crucial for successful treatment and prevention of tissue damage.

In this case series, five pediatric patients with tinea capitis showed varied clinical presentations, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis and prompt systemic antifungal therapy to prevent permanent outcomes such as alopecia and scarring.
