This study indicates that hair analyses for calcium and phosphorus are unlikely to be useful for assessing the nutritional status of horses, suggesting soil and feed analyses as more effective alternatives.

This article reviews various types of primary cicatricial alopecias and emphasizes the importance of accurate diagnosis to improve management strategies, particularly detailing remaining lymphocytic forms and expanding on neutrophilic and mixed types.

This study found that prostate cancer aggressiveness in men with obesity is associated with changes in age, BMI, testosterone, and estradiol levels, and that adipocyte-secreted molecules increase cancer cell aggressiveness in vitro.

This review examines advances in computer-aided drug design for targeting membrane proteins in prostate cancer but reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the potential of structural insights and compound screening for therapeutic development.

A woman's unique dementia was misdiagnosed, a genetic mutation increases Parkinson's risk with age, and finasteride may help with Tourette syndrome.

This study identified 193 plasma proteins associated with prostate cancer risk, validating 20 high-risk proteins including KLK3, and pinpointed potential drug targets like HSPB1, RRM2B, and PSCA through genetic analysis, offering new insights for biomarkers and treatments.

This study found that women with post-COVID alopecia showed a diffuse telogen effluvium pattern and distinct trace element imbalances, such as reduced copper and increased selenium levels, helping differentiate this condition from androgenetic alopecia.

5-ARI therapy may help prevent prostate cancer progression.

This study identifies SOX9 as a critical downstream effector of ERG in TMPRSS2:ERG fusion-positive prostate cancer, indicating its role in tumor invasion and growth.

This study reports that in primary cicatricial alopecias, increased expression of certain immune markers in the hair-follicle bulge suggests a collapse of immune privilege, which may contribute to follicle destruction.

This study found that African American men with prostate cancer have higher rates of somatic and germline androgen receptor mutations than Caucasian American men, which may contribute to ethnic differences in disease progression and outcomes.

People with primary cicatricial alopecia have a higher risk of heart disease and stroke.

This review discusses the potential role of FGF5 as a therapeutic target in prostate cancer and other conditions but reports no new results, highlighting a need for further research on FGF5 inhibitors.

This study explores the use of in silico methods to identify potential diagnostic biomarkers for primary cicatricial alopecia, revealing significant interactions among genes and proteins related to disease pathogenesis.

The study found that CK15 expression, representing hair follicle stem cell activity, was reduced or absent in scarred primary cicatricial alopecia lesions, suggesting stem cell damage may contribute to the scarring process.

This review suggests that platelet-rich plasma may be a promising treatment for immune-mediated alopecias, including alopecia areata and primary cicatricial alopecias, but definitive recommendations are limited due to insufficient high-quality evidence.

This study suggests a possible link between late puberty onset and decreased prostate cancer risk, while over-the-counter ibuprofen use was associated with increased risk.

This abstract is a listing of affiliations and funding, with no new study or results reported.

This study found that disrupted cholesterol homeostasis in scalp samples from cicatricial alopecia patients hinders hair regrowth by affecting hair follicle stem cell markers, with resulting effects confirmed in vitro and in animal models.

This study found that patients with alopecia, particularly alopecia areata and female pattern hair loss, often have vitamin D deficiency, suggesting that screening for vitamin D could benefit these patients.

This case report describes the first recorded instance of posterior cerebral artery dissection in a patient with childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus, which uniquely progressed from cerebral infarction to subarachnoid hemorrhage.

This review addresses the challenges in treating frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting the limited effectiveness of medical treatments and the demand for hair transplantation despite its risks, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, finasteride exposure in human prostatic cell lines did not affect cell proliferation but significantly reduced MMP activity and increased TIMP expression, potentially inhibiting tumor cell invasion and metastasis.

This article reviews the impact of aging and related urologic conditions on male fertility, highlighting the effects of various treatments on sperm parameters and recommending pre-treatment counseling for fertility preservation. It reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that five cases of primary cicatricial alopecia showed an excellent response to a combination of oral zinc and long-pulsed Nd:YAG 1064-nm laser treatment, suggesting this approach may be beneficial for certain types of this condition.

This article discusses advancements in proteomic and metabolomic analysis techniques for studying hair damage but provides no new clinical results; the authors express interest in applying metabolomics to develop strategies for reducing hair damage from chemical treatments.

This article reviews the role of inflammation in scarring alopecia and reports no clinical findings; the authors note a need for further research into its etiology and pathogenesis.

This review updates on various methods for hair and scalp examination, encompassing non-invasive, semi-invasive, and invasive techniques, and reports no new results.

This study developed a sensitive and precise scFv-based ELISA for miroestrol quantification, aiding quality control in P. candollei plant materials and health supplements.

This review found that insulin-chitosan formulations, such as gels and dressings, show promise in wound healing through anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects, although most evidence is from preclinical studies and further research is needed to understand mechanisms.
