This study found that among men with androgenetic alopecia, the M-type pattern, either isolated or combined with others, was observed most frequently, using the BASP classification.

This study investigated a nanostructured system using PS-b-PAA diblock copolymer for incorporating the hydrophobic photosensitizer ClAlPc, finding it effective in causing cellular damage in Caco-2 cells under light while demonstrating no cytotoxicity without light, suggesting its potential use in photodynamic therapy.

This review discusses recent molecular biology advances in the human phenol sulfotransferase gene family and reports no new results; the authors highlight its relevance for studies of endogenous and xenobiotic metabolism.

In this study, researchers identified a recurrent MBTPS2 splice-site variant as a mutational hotspot in IFAP syndrome across diverse families, with phenotype severity suggesting the influence of additional modifiers.

This study suggests that paeoniflorin's protective effects on brain astrocytes may be mediated by TSPO and neurosteroids biosynthesis.

This document reviews various studies presented at the Plastic Surgery Research Council (PSRC) Annual Meetings and reports no new research findings; it discusses topics ranging from reconstructive techniques to gender-affirming surgeries.

This review discusses the diagnosis, management, and treatment options for peripheral arterial disease and does not report new clinical findings; the authors emphasize the need for early diagnosis and comprehensive management.

This study found that patients with post-finasteride syndrome exhibited major depressive disorder, severe erectile dysfunction, and neuropathy, alongside altered neuroactive steroid levels in cerebrospinal fluid.

This review covers recent advances in prostate cancer risk assessment, diagnosis, and treatment but does not report new clinical results; further studies on androgen deprivation therapy's cardiovascular risks are particularly noted.

This report describes a unique case of Schöpf–Schulz–Passarge syndrome in a Taiwanese man linked to a previously unreported homozygous WNT 10A mutation, underscoring its role in ectodermal dysplasia.

This study found that early treatment with estradiol or dihydrotestosterone significantly reduced prostate adenocarcinoma development in Lobund-Wistar rats, while later treatments were ineffective.

In this laboratory study, procyanidin B2 inhibited early plant growth and biochemical responses in wheat seedlings treated with lipopolysaccharides from Azospirillum brasilense, suggesting that plant response activation requires LPS recognition by plant cells.

Finasteride significantly reduced tics and obsessive-compulsive symptoms in patients with Tourette syndrome.

This study found that short-term NB-UVB treatment significantly reduced anxiety levels in psoriasis patients, but not depression.

This study found that the prevalence of PCOS among Australian women aged 16-29 was 12% using NIH criteria, with fertility concerns being the most distressing aspect for those diagnosed.

This case report describes a 26-year-old man who experienced persistent sexual dysfunction and other symptoms for 19 months after stopping finasteride for androgenetic alopecia. The authors highlight post-finasteride syndrome's impact on quality of life and stress the need for careful risk-benefit assessment before prescribing.

Taking 1mg of finasteride daily for hair loss can lower PSA levels by 40-50%, so to keep PSA effective as a cancer screening tool, the PSA value should be doubled during treatment.

Finasteride lowers PSA levels about the same whether taken at 1 mg or 5 mg daily.

This article reviews the discovery and various physiological effects of cyproterone acetate, reporting its established indications for several androgen-driven conditions but providing no new clinical data.

In this study, reports from individuals using Serenoa repens indicated a possible post-Serenoa syndrome characterized by persistent sexual and neuropsychiatric symptoms, with causality assessed as 'probable' in 54% of cases, highlighting an underrecognized safety concern that warrants further investigation.

In this study, BPA rapidly increased dendritic spine and synapse densities in cultured rat hippocampal neurons, with involvement of estrogen receptors and ERK1/2 and p38 pathways, but disrupted dihydrotestosterone's effects on synaptic plasticity.

This study found no association between androgenetic alopecia and increased prostate volume or serum PSA levels in male patients aged 25–45.

This study found that the 1 mg dose of finasteride was associated with a wide range of adverse effects, including sexual, psychological, and metabolic symptoms, in the FAERS data.

This study found that combining ASA with conditioned medium from adipose tissue-derived MSCs may offer a promising approach for protecting against hippocampal injuries, suggesting potential synergistic therapeutic benefits that merit further investigation.

This study found that combining finasteride and anastrozole was more effective in preventing and treating benign prostatic hyperplasia in rats than using either drug alone.

This article reviews the regulation and roles of spermidine/spermine-N(1)-acetyltransferase (SSAT) in polyamine metabolism and its potential as a target in cancer and other diseases, without reporting new experimental results.

This study found that men with a cutaneous melanoma diagnosis had an increased risk of subsequently being diagnosed with prostate cancer compared to those without melanoma.

This study found that while a modified BASP classification for pattern hair loss could classify previously unrecognized types, it was less accurate and harder to use than the existing BASP classification.

This study explored the localization of phenolsulphotransferase in human embryonic and fetal kidneys, finding distinct patterns of PST immunoreactivity in developing mesonephric and metanephric structures over time.
