This study found that treating dogs with benign prostatic hyperplasia using osaterone acetate reduced prostatic volume and increased diffusion times of an ultrasound contrast agent, suggesting effective treatment and potential for CEUS monitoring.

This review discusses the state-of-the-art knowledge on pseudoxanthoma elasticum, summarizing recent advancements in genetics, pathomechanisms, and potential treatments but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report highlights a rare instance of erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp in a patient on afatinib, underlining the importance of early recognition and management of this adverse effect.

The authors concluded that establishing and standardizing methods for data collection are crucial to improving PCOS diagnosis and research due to challenges observed in data harmonization across diverse international cohorts.

This study utilized a pigmented human epidermal equivalent model to incorporate melanocytes into the epidermis and found enhanced differentiation potential compared to conventional in vitro systems, reflecting in vivo cellular trajectories and highlighting melanocyte-to-keratinocyte communication pathways.

This study found that FDA-cleared devices for preparing platelet-rich plasma showed inconsistent product quality, with variable platelet counts and inadequate quality control performance, suggesting clinical improvement may not rely on platelet concentration.

This study reports that fenugreek seed extract (Furocyst®) improved body weight, ovarian cysts, ovary size, hair growth, and menstrual regularity in women with PCOS, indicating its potential as an effective phytotherapeutic option for managing the condition.

This study found that the SAFE System may improve follicular unit extraction by reducing follicle transection rates and broadening patient eligibility, with only minor adverse reactions reported.

The author had undisclosed conflicts of interest related to the original article on post-finasteride syndrome.

This paper reports on the controversy surrounding post-finasteride syndrome and questions Merck and the FDA's handling of associated sexual side effects. Despite significant adverse event reports, both entities failed to conduct further studies or enhance patient safety warnings about finasteride's long-term effects.

This case report describes a 52-year-old woman with a rare combination of pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus on the scalp, initially misdiagnosed as psoriasis, who achieved clinical remission and hair regrowth with corticosteroid treatment.

In this study, a risk score was developed and validated to identify patients at high risk of clinical failure after femoropopliteal peripheral vascular intervention, aiming to guide the selection of patients who may benefit from paclitaxel-coated devices or alternative strategies.

This study observed that intrauterine and early postnatal exposure to finasteride affected prostatic development in Mongolian gerbils, with significant sex-based differences, particularly higher alterations in female prostates.

This study found that trichoscopy can effectively differentiate female pattern hair loss from chronic telogen effluvium based on specific features like hair shaft diameter variability and density differences, aiding in targeted treatment planning.

Isoflavones may help with menopause symptoms but could be risky for women with hormone-sensitive cancers.

In this study, researchers found that female rats exhibited more pronounced panic-related escape behavior during hypoxia, particularly in the diestrus phase, and that low-dose fluoxetine reduced this behavior, suggesting its potential for managing panic disorder symptoms related to hormonal cycles in women.

This study concluded that platelet rich fibrin (PRF) may enhance healing and functional recovery compared to platelet rich plasma (PRP) during immediate post-extractive dental implant procedures.

This review discusses the evolution of platelet concentrates in regenerative medicine, highlighting a proposed function-driven classification that distinguishes three generations of PCs by biological activity rather than development order, with third-generation exosome-based therapies showing superior therapeutic efficacy over earlier formulations.

This study introduces three spectrophotometric techniques for accurately determining finasteride and tadalafil in their combined pharmaceutical form, demonstrating their sustainability, sensitivity, and suitability for quality assurance, alongside a dissolution study following FDA guidelines.

This study validated the differential stripping technique on hairless rat skin and found that the P-08–016 formulation delivered more finasteride to the epidermis and appendages compared to P-10–008.

This study found that 2.5 mg/day of oral finasteride was effective in improving hair density in women with female pattern hair loss, especially in those with early onset and longer treatment durations.

In this study, finasteride was found to potentiate stress-induced disruption in sensory gating of rats by neutralizing the increase in allopregnanolone levels after acute stress.

The effectiveness of finasteride for preventing chronic bacterial prostatitis is unclear.

This study found that finasteride use was significantly associated with reports of obstructive sleep apnea and insomnia compared to other drugs in the FAERS database.

This qualitative study found that healthcare professionals view psychosocial needs as a major reason for offering therapeutic education and self-management support for psoriasis, but efficacy remains uncertain.

This review discusses fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution and highlights diagnostic features, but reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the value of trichoscopy and histology in diagnosis.

This study found that non-small-cell lung cancer patients experienced less adverse events with third-generation EGFR-TKIs compared to first and second generations, although fear of cancer progression, anxiety, and depression were still prevalent.

In this retrospective study, researchers found that coadministration of finasteride and sildenafil in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia improved both lower urinary tract symptoms and sexual function, without significant changes in vital signs, after a treatment period averaging 18 weeks.

This study developed a rapid and efficient in vitro method using high-performance liquid chromatography to screen for steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors, determining inhibition constants for Finasteride and Epristeride.
