This review discusses the complex relationship between stress and various skin conditions, highlighting the role of the skin in the stress response and the brain-skin communication pathways, but reports no new research findings.

In this study, hirsutism in women with PCOS was strongly associated with hyperandrogenism and metabolic abnormalities, while acne and androgenic alopecia were not effective markers for hyperandrogenism.

This study found that the transcription factors Msx2 and Foxn1 are crucial for maintaining Notch1 expression in the hair follicle matrix, which is necessary for proper hair differentiation.

This study found that overexpression of the mineralocorticoid receptor in a mouse model led to premature epidermal barrier development, keratinocyte apoptosis, and postnatal alopecia, indicating new roles for MR signaling in skin physiology.

These guidelines review the management of complications and specific forms of congenital ichthyosis and report no new results; they summarize expert and evidence-based recommendations for clinicians.

This study found that 5α-reductase inhibitors significantly increase the risk of erectile dysfunction and hypoactive sexual desire in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia, compared to placebo.

This review discusses how macro-environmental factors such as intradermal adipose tissue and sex hormones influence hair and feather stem cell niches, suggesting environmental targets for regenerative medicine, but reports no new clinical results.

This chapter reviews the role of androgen receptors in mediating the actions of androgens in specific tissues and provides no new experimental findings.

This review indicates that most studies reported positive effects of platelet-rich plasma injections for treating androgenic alopecia, with no major side effects, suggesting it may be a safe alternative to Minoxidil and Finasteride.

In this retrospective study at a New Delhi children's hospital, the authors found that pediatric skin diseases were most commonly infections and infestations, with bacterial infections and scabies leading, followed by eczemas.

This article reviews the diagnosis and treatment of tinea capitis in children, noting that newer antifungal agents can offer effective systemic therapy alongside supportive topical treatments; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that men receiving enzalutamide and other androgen-deprivation therapies may be at increased risk for QT prolongation and torsades de pointes.

In this study using an animal model, researchers found that PEGL-DOX, unlike DOX, causes Hand-Foot Syndrome due to reactive oxygen species interacting with skin tissue, leading to skin-specific inflammatory responses.

This study concluded that combined hormonal contraceptives containing desogestrel, drospirenone, or cyproterone acetate were associated with a higher risk of venous thromboembolism compared to those containing levonorgestrel.

Vitiligo causes white skin patches and is linked to autoimmune issues.

This study established a new in vitro culture system that supports the growth and dynamic self-organization of hair follicle stem cells and their progeny, promoting a stable population equilibrium.

This study reports that men with androgenic alopecia experience altered neuroactive steroid levels associated with persistent depression symptoms even after stopping finasteride treatment.

This review discusses the dermatological adverse events from immunosuppressive and anti-TNF therapy in IBD, finding increased risks of non-melanoma skin cancer and other skin conditions, and recommends regular cancer screening.

This study suggests that adding metformin to diet and exercise improves insulin resistance and hyperandrogenism in women with PCOS, though lifestyle changes alone may enhance menstrual cycles.

This study found that inhibiting PKC-β activity with bisindolylmaleimide reduces pigmentation in the skin and hair of guinea pigs and mice by preventing tyrosinase activation.

This study suggests that cerebrospinal fluid levels of the neurosteroids allopregnanolone and pregnanolone correlate negatively with PTSD and negative mood symptoms, with potential sex-specific differences in synthesis enzyme blocks.

In this study, the researchers optimized the extraction conditions for crude polysaccharide from Hibiscus rosa-sinensis leaves, achieving a yield of 9.66% and demonstrated strong antioxidant activities in vitro.

This study found that the prevalence of autoimmune thyroiditis was significantly higher in Italian patients with polycystic ovary syndrome compared to controls, suggesting that these patients should be screened for the condition.

This paper discusses the variability in COVID-19 susceptibility and severity, emphasizing factors like biological differences and suggesting potential precision medicine approaches, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses various substances that can impact male fertility and stresses that products should be confirmed 'sperm-safe' through rigorous testing, not assumptions; it reports no new study results.

This article reviews the use of medical tattooing for cosmetic and therapeutic purposes across various fields, but reports no new clinical results.

Finasteride reduces hair loss and treats BPH without major hormone changes, but may cause sexual dysfunction.

This article discusses the interactions between keratinocytes and melanocytes in maintaining epidermal and hair follicle homeostasis, without reporting new experimental results.

Burn reconstruction improves with new techniques, materials, and tissue engineering.

This article discusses the complexities of treating hair and scalp disorders in African American patients, emphasizing the importance of understanding their specific hair care practices and the unique impact on quality of life, but reports no new empirical findings.
