This article updates on the medical management of benign prostatic hyperplasia in companion animals and reports no new clinical findings; the authors discuss existing treatments.

This review synthesizes research on hederagenin's anticancer and anti-inflammatory potential, emphasizing chemical modifications to enhance its bioactivity, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that after oral administration of finasteride in healthy volunteers, the drug was extensively metabolized, with the majority being excreted as metabolites in urine and feces.

This study found that rapidly administered intravenous cimetidine may cause a significant drop in blood pressure in critically ill patients, whereas ranitidine does not appear to have the same effect.

This case report describes a 36-year-old female patient with panhypopituitarism, experiencing severe adrenal insufficiency and thyroid hormone deficiency, which led to electrolyte imbalance, QT interval prolongation, and ventricular tachycardia; treatment stabilized her condition, underscoring the importance of hormonal evaluation in arrhythmia assessment.

This study found that two finasteride preparations were bioequivalent in human volunteers when tested using a new HPLC method for pharmacokinetics.

In this study, researchers isolated new compounds from the plant *Calanthe cardioglossa* and found that five of these compounds, particularly calancardin B, significantly reduced TNF-α levels in immune cells relevant to multiple sclerosis, suggesting potential for immunomodulatory effects.

In this study, a female dog with ectoparasite infestation was treated for two weeks using wormectin, diphenhydramine, chlorpheniramine maleate, dexamethasone, and amoxicillin, resulting in improved symptoms such as reduced itching, closure of skin ulcers, and hair regrowth.

This article reviews guidelines and medications for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia but presents no new clinical results.

In this study, Diane was reported to effectively treat acne, seborrhoea, androgenic alopecia, and mild hirsutism in hirsute women, with its effectiveness influenced by the severity and duration of the condition.

This study found that octahydrobenzo[c]quinolizin-3-one derivatives, particularly compound 3, were potent and selective inhibitors of the enzyme 5α-reductase type 1.

This study investigated the metabolic pathways of epristeride, a new Type II 5α‐reductase inhibitor, using in vitro models and found that its metabolites show significant interactions with key proteins, suggesting implications for its role in doping control.

In a clinical trial, this study found that a modified slow-release oral testosterone formulation improved pharmacokinetics, delaying serum testosterone peaks and reducing serum DHT compared to immediate-release formulations, especially when combined with finasteride.

This study found that a dutasteride tablet formulation using cyclodextrin complex, solubilizing polymer, and surfactant achieved similar bioavailability in beagle dogs to that of a commercial capsule.

This study found that finasteride's solubility and bioavailability were improved when using a dimethyl-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex compared to the drug alone.

In this study, both cyproterone acetate-estrogen combination (Diane®) and finasteride were effective in reducing hirsutism, but Diane® showed greater long-term efficacy and cost-effectiveness.

This study found that both topiramate and divalproex sodium were similarly effective in reducing headache frequency by over 50% among episodic migraine patients after three months of treatment.

In this study, complete to excellent hair regrowth was observed in 63.3% of patients with extensive alopecia areata treated with biweekly dexamethasone pulses, although mild side effects were frequent.

Minoxidil effectively controls blood pressure in severe cases, but has serious side effects and causes hair growth in women.

This research article focuses on nonsteroidal inhibitors of human type I steroid 5-alpha-reductase but reports no new results.

The study observed that Tai Chi and Wuqinxi, when combined with antihypertensive medication, might be particularly effective in lowering systolic and diastolic blood pressure, respectively, suggesting they could be prioritized as treatment options.

This study aimed to develop a new transdermal patch for treating androgenetic alopecia using finasteride, combined with chemical permeation enhancers to improve drug delivery through the skin, but results of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics evaluations are not reported.

In this study, the aqueous extract of Eclipta alba and its hydrolyzed fraction showed nootropic activity and reduced stress-induced alterations in rats.

This review examines recent advancements in analytical techniques used to quantify dutasteride, a medication for enlarged prostate, in various biological samples and its commercial forms, emphasizing methods such as HPTLC, GC-MS, and HPLC.

This letter discusses a case of iododerma in pregnancy linked to iodinated multivitamin use, but reports no new clinical findings.

This case report describes severe hypothyroidism exacerbated by nephrotic syndrome in a 62-year-old woman, with a diagnosis of membranous nephropathy linked to significant proteinuria.

This study found that fluconazole increased water transport in renal cells via effects on aquaporin-2 channels, suggesting potential as a treatment for nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, though clinical trials are needed to confirm efficacy in humans.
