Certain factors like being female, having high cholesterol, using Medicaid, and previous non-biologic treatments increase the risk of multiple biologic failures in psoriasis patients.

This study found that serum anti-müllerian hormone levels above 3.2 ng/ml are both sensitive and specific for diagnosing polycystic ovary syndrome, linked with increased ovarian size and menstrual disturbances.

This case report observed vemurafenib-induced pityriasis amiantacea, a scalp scaling reaction, in a patient with metastatic melanoma, which was managed symptomatically without altering vemurafenib treatment.

This study found that multiphoton microscopy imaging allows for detailed observation and quantitative analysis of collagen alterations in the progression of endometrial cancer, potentially offering a faster, more accurate method for early diagnosis compared to current protocols.

This study found that the monophasic oral contraceptive ethinylestradiol/chlormadinone acetate was more effective in treating mild to moderate papulopustular acne in women than ethinylestradiol/levonorgestrel.
