This study found that males treated with serotonergic antidepressants had an increased risk of erectile dysfunction, with an adjusted odds ratio of 3.2, and the risk for post-SSRI sexual dysfunction was 0.46%, emphasizing the importance of informed consent due to these potential irreversible side effects.

Pill splitting increased generic finasteride sales but didn't affect branded finasteride sales.

This study examines how conditions like PSSD, Long COVID, and ME/CFS form a "Post-Exposure Syndromes" family, initiated by transient exposures but persisting due to complex state-space dynamics, and suggests improving pharmacovigilance to better address and understand these persistent syndromes.

This presentation argues that post-exposure syndromes like PSSD and Long COVID form a coherent group of conditions driven by complex interactions in high-dimensional state spaces rather than singular molecular pathways.

This paper introduces a framework attributing Post-SSRI, Post-Finasteride, Post-Retinoid, and an unnamed sexual dysfunction syndrome to downregulated estrogen receptor activity, potentially guiding future treatments in sexual medicine.

This review assessed patient-reported outcome measures for alopecia treatments but found that none met current FDA guidelines; however, some could potentially be adapted for more comprehensive use.

This study found that the oral Janus kinase inhibitor CP-690,550 has a direct effect on reducing pruritus in patients with psoriasis, independent of clinician-assessed improvements in psoriasis severity.

Treating chronic hand eczema costs about the same in statutory and occupational health insurances in Germany, but work-related cases may lead to higher indirect costs due to longer work absences.

Cataract surgery guidelines vary across Europe, and generic finasteride sales for hair loss have grown due to pill splitting.

Cataract surgery in Europe varies in frequency and cost between countries.

Real-life dosing of biologics for plaque psoriasis often deviates from recommended guidelines, especially for high-need patients.

Using a call center to collect data in a trial for eye disease in diabetics led to high response rates and very little missing information.

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.

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 premature hair graying in young Turkish men and women is associated with emotional stress, alcohol consumption, chronic diseases, and a family history of graying.

This paper describes the development of diagnostic criteria for several enduring sexual dysfunction conditions following the use of certain medications, highlighting common sexual and non-sexual symptoms.

This study found that a vegetarian diet preference, atopy history, and paternal family history were associated with a higher likelihood of premature hair graying in young adults.

This study found that patients with telogen effluvium experienced higher stress, depression, anxiety, and lower quality of life compared to healthy controls.

This study suggests that post-finasteride syndrome and post-SSRI sexual dysfunction share potential etiopathogenetic mechanisms involving brain modulators, neurotransmitters, and gut microbiota, although more research is needed to understand these conditions fully.

This source highlights that while plant sterols show potential benefits and applications in various industries, significant research gaps, including their complex structures and mechanisms, hinder their broader use, emphasizing the need for innovative sources and sustainable methods for their study.

This study found that coadministration of tadalafil and finasteride improved lower urinary tract symptoms and erectile function in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia better than finasteride alone over 26 weeks.

This review discusses the molecular pathology of progeroid syndromes and reports no new results; the authors emphasize understanding these mechanisms to develop treatments and potentially improve quality of life for affected individuals.

This retrospective study in pediatric patients with Sjögren's syndrome found consistent indications of tear film instability and identified systemic features like arthralgia, Raynaud's phenomenon, and frequent autoantibody positivity, underscoring the value of integrating clinical and ophthalmological assessments for early diagnosis.

This study highlights the use of hair and fingernail cortisol levels as retrospective indicators of chronic stress, particularly in minoritized populations facing social stressors that increase the risk of mental health issues.

This study reported that the coexistence of myasthenia gravis and primary Sjögren's syndrome is rare, and managing the progress of myasthenia gravis is crucial for treatment, while it does not adversely impact Sjögren's syndrome.

This study reported that the combination of a 308-nm excimer lamp and 10% liquor carbonis detergens significantly improved scalp psoriasis symptoms compared to the excimer lamp alone, with more patients achieving 75% reduction in their Psoriasis Scalp Severity Index.

Preoperative stress markers alone don't predict chronic post-surgical pain.

This review introduces a framework to integrate bioinspired conductive materials and advanced 3D/4D printing in regenerative medicine for dynamic, responsive tissue regeneration, emphasizing the potential of smart scaffolds to adapt to physiological cues.

This study concluded that oral tofacitinib significantly improved symptoms in patients with lichen planus pigmentosus who did not respond to conventional treatments, showing it as a viable alternative.

This study reported that a 29-year-old woman with telogen effluvium experienced improved hair growth and reduced hair loss through 12 sessions of plum blossom acupuncture combined with electroacupuncture, as evidenced by new hair growth, improved hair-pull test results, and decreased telogen phase hair percentage.
