This review examines various immunomodulatory therapies for cutaneous lymphoma and notes that they are most effective in the disease's early stages.

This review found that hormonal therapies, including FDA-approved combined oral contraceptive pills and spironolactone, are effective and well-tolerated treatments for acne vulgaris in adolescents with or without endocrine disorders, providing alternative options to antibiotics.

Oral cyclosporin doesn't stop hair loss.

This comprehensive review analyzes androgenetic alopecia treatments, discussing the mechanisms, costs, efficacy, and safety of FDA-approved drugs like minoxidil and finasteride, as well as newer non-FDA-approved options that have shown effectiveness across various studies.

Lichen planopilaris is a rare, chronic condition causing hair loss, mainly in middle-aged women, and early treatment is important to prevent permanent baldness.

This review examines obesity's role in PCOS and reports that obesity treatment guidelines can likely be applied to women with PCOS without substantial changes.

This study found a significant relationship between androgenetic alopecia and insulin resistance-associated indicators like obesity in young men, suggesting a potential risk for developing cardiovascular and metabolic disorders.

This review discusses the roles of Wnt signaling in skin organogenesis and related processes but reports no new experimental results, highlighting areas for future research.

Hair can regrow after certain stem cells are lost because other stem cells can take over their role.

This study suggests that activating retinoic acid signalling can inhibit Wnt signalling and induce regression in certain skin tumors, providing potential therapeutic strategies for tumor regression.

This study identified 21 novel circular RNAs in cashmere goats, with nine significantly more expressed during the anagen phase of hair follicle growth, suggesting roles in hair regeneration and cashmere yield enhancement.

This study found that in a mouse model of Focal Dermal Hypoplasia, treatment with lithium carbonate improved skin disease symptoms compared to controls, though disease severity varied and posed interpretation challenges.

This study found that neurosteroids can reorganize GABA A receptors in mice, mimicking ovarian cycle changes, with the process being mediated by neurosteroid levels rather than direct hormone receptor activation.

This review summarizes the current understanding of Wnt signaling in relation to its roles in tissue regeneration and cancer progression and discusses recent medical advancements targeting this pathway for therapeutic purposes.

Minoxidil is the only FDA-approved topical drug for treating male or female pattern hair loss, and other medications like finasteride and dutasteride can also increase hair growth.

This study suggests that nerve growth factor plays a crucial role in the stress-induced termination of hair growth in mice, and its antagonism might offer a therapeutic approach to mitigate stress-related hair loss.

This consensus statement outlines a treatment algorithm for alopecia areata, discussing when to consider systemic treatment and how to assess outcomes, without providing new clinical results.

This study found that inhibiting neurosteroidogenesis affected GABA A receptor-mediated synaptic inhibition in immature rats but not in adults, suggesting age-dependent modulation of synaptic strength in the spinal dorsal horn.

This review discusses the use of dermal regeneration templates for treating burn injuries and other wounds, highlighting their effectiveness in reducing scars and aiding in regenerative processes, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that both finasteride and flutamide effectively reduce hirsutism in women with polycystic ovary syndrome or idiopathic hirsutism, but flutamide was more effective.

This review discusses the clinical manifestations and diagnostic challenges of polycystic ovary syndrome in adolescents, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and intervention to manage symptoms effectively, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the emotional and psychological impact of severe alopecia areata on patients, emphasizing feelings of loss, vulnerability, and self-identity changes, and reports no new results.

This article reviews the classification, diagnosis, and management of hair disorders, emphasizing the role of trichoscopy and early diagnosis for effective treatment but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses female androgenetic alopecia, highlighting its diagnostic challenges and management strategies, but it reports no new results.

This review discusses post-SSRI sexual dysfunction and post-finasteride syndrome, highlighting unknowns about their true incidence and underlying causes, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that dutasteride pretreatment reduced certain sedative effects of alcohol and may decrease drinking behavior in adult men, likely by impacting neuroactive steroid levels.

Hormonal treatments are effective as a second-line option for moderate-to-severe acne in females, but should be used with caution due to health risks.

This review discusses cutaneous adverse effects of psychotropic medications and reports no new findings, emphasizing the importance of psychiatrists being aware of these potential skin reactions.

This review discusses adverse effects of 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors, particularly persistent side effects such as post-finasteride syndrome, and highlights the need for further investigation.

This study suggests that stress may worsen Tourette syndrome symptoms in mice by increasing allopregnanolone synthesis, with findings supporting finasteride as a potential treatment to manage symptom fluctuations.
