This article discusses the introduction of the term 'prepubertal pattern hair loss' to describe hair thinning in children under 10 without physical abnormalities, and reports no new clinical findings.

This review article identifies a need for standardized guidelines in using photobiomodulation therapy for spinal cord injury repair, emphasizing that current inconsistencies in therapy parameters may hinder optimal outcomes and limit clinical trials.

This study found that the progesterone metabolite 3α-THP increased the proliferation and gene expression of human glioblastoma cells, suggesting a role in tumor progression.

This review examines the use of platelet rich fibrin for treating post-acne scars and reports no new clinical results; it highlights that fibrin's matrix enables a prolonged release of growth factors.

This study found that non-alcoholic fatty pancreas disease is significantly more prevalent in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, and is associated with metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and hyperandrogenism.

This study found that platelet-rich fibrin provides more sustained therapeutic effects than platelet-rich plasma in inhibiting apoptosis and enhancing proliferation and migration of human endometrial stromal cells.

This study discovered that the gene Tfap2b identifies a melanocyte stem cell population in zebrafish, essential for regenerating melanocytes with multi-fate potential into adult pigment cells.

This study found that FGF5-/- rabbits exhibited a significant long hair phenotype by prolonging the anagen phase, suggesting FGF5 acts as a negative regulator of hair growth.

This animal study found that berberine may alleviate benign prostatic hyperplasia by reducing inflammation and oxidative stress through inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway.

In this clinical trial, the topical agent AP-FHG0604T significantly increased hair counts and growth rates in women with female pattern hair loss compared to a placebo, though some reported mild local irritation.

This study reports that the dye peri-xanthenoxanthene (PXX) can act as an efficient photocatalyst for various radical reactions, including complex dual catalytic processes and the synthesis of an investigational drug intermediate.

This chapter discusses the synthesis and analysis of near-infrared fluorescent activity-based probes for imaging cysteine protease activity, reporting potential benefits for disease diagnosis but noting challenges in imaging specific locations with high cathepsin activity.

In this case study, a 29-year-old woman with Pseudopelade of Brocq, a type of scarring alopecia, showed significant hair density improvement following a combination of scalp reduction surgery and concentrated growth factor injections postoperatively, which addressed scar complications and inflammation.

This review highlights that pomegranate leaf exhibits potential health benefits, such as anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective effects in vitro and in animal models, but calls for comprehensive human clinical trials to confirm these therapeutic benefits and ensure safety.

This study found that both finasteride and a new steroidal compound, PM-9, competitively inhibit the 5α-reductase enzyme in Penicillium crustosum broth.

This study reports that oral tofacitinib treatment in a patient with refractory lichen planus pigmentosus and frontal fibrosing alopecia resulted in near-complete resolution of hyperpigmentation and cessation of hairline recession over 18 months, and suggests it may be a promising therapy for these challenging conditions.

The authors present a case of punctate follicular porokeratosis, suggesting it as a distinct clinical entity distinguished by keratotic lesions originating specifically from hair follicles.

In this study, dermatologists from the Spanish Hair and Nail Disorders Group viewed post-finasteride syndrome as rare and primarily of psychiatric origin, with limited scientific evidence supporting its existence.

A male patient developed frontal fibrosing alopecia after antiandrogen therapy for prostate cancer.

This study found that loss of the Pten gene in Lgr5+ hair follicle stem cells promoted squamous cell carcinoma formation through the Akt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This article is a letter to the editor about fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution and reports no new research findings.

This article discusses the case of a 59-year-old woman with a history of progressive facial hyperpigmentation and explores potential connections between her condition and her family history, but reports no clinical findings.

In this study, fibroblasts treated with the small molecule peficitinib were reprogrammed into dermal papilla cell-like cells capable of inducing hair growth, offering a new strategy for hair loss treatment.

This study reported that a novel filler, BM-PHA, demonstrated similar efficacy and safety to Restylane Perlane in treating moderate to severe nasolabial folds over 24 weeks, showing only minor local side effects and similar improvements in wrinkle severity scores between the two treatments.

This study describes the development of a prototype clinical expert system that uses a belief rule-based inference methodology to improve the risk stratification and diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome by addressing uncertainties in clinical data and domain knowledge.

This abstract contains subscription and access information for Wolters Kluwer Health journals but reports no research findings.

This report details a case study where a 40-year-old woman experienced allergic contact dermatitis and angioedema-like symptoms after using PPD-containing hair dye. Patch testing confirmed a positive reaction to PPD, highlighting the substance's potential to cause both T-cell and IgE-mediated hypersensitivity reactions.

In this study, Paljeong-san pharmacopuncture reduced dihydrotestosterone levels and inhibited prostate tissue proliferation in a rat model of benign prostatic hyperplasia.
