The HAIR-Q is a reliable tool for assessing patient satisfaction with hair loss treatments.

In this retrospective study of eight Saudi children with hereditary vitamin D resistant rickets, researchers observed that adjunctive cinacalcet appeared safe and showed initial promise in improving serum PTH levels, though further investigation is needed to confirm its efficacy.

This study found that both the natural ligand 1alpha,25(OH)(2)D(3) and the synthetic agonist LG190178 bind similarly to the vitamin D receptor's coregulator motifs, suggesting similar biological functions.

This study found that OPC-17116 can be reliably detected in hair, suggesting it can serve as an index of drug exposure and a time-marker in hair analysis.

This study concluded that the combination of all-trans-retinoic acid and tocopherol-α is not recommended for treating del(5q) myelodysplastic syndromes due to low efficacy and high incidence of adverse effects.

This study found that certain VDR gene polymorphisms are more prevalent in female pattern hair loss patients than in healthy controls, suggesting these polymorphisms may increase disease risk.

In this study, a Chinese Han family with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets was found to have a homozygous missense mutation in the VDR gene, and the affected individual uniquely responded well to treatment with oral calcium and low-dose calcitriol.

This article presents a case of giant cell arteritis occurring in a patient with de Quervain's thyroiditis but reports no new clinical findings.

This study developed and validated a 50-item questionnaire, the PCOSQ-50, to effectively assess the quality of life in Iranian women with polycystic ovary syndrome, addressing aspects often missed by previous questionnaires.

This study found that long-term imiquimod treatment on mice intensified skin inflammation early on, but topical corticosteroids significantly reduced skin infiltration and inflammatory cytokines after initial inflammation subsided.

This study explored how modifying the 8-substituent of 8-bromobenzoquinolinone affects its selectivity in inhibiting both 5 alpha-reductase isozymes in the scalp.

This review examines the potential therapeutic effects and mechanisms of quercetin for treating polycystic ovary syndrome, noting improved clinical parameters in some studies but presenting no new results.

This study found that vitamin D receptor expression is associated with proliferating keratinocytes, while retinoid X receptor α is linked to differentiating keratinocytes, suggesting differential targeting by vitamin D metabolites.

This study found that engineered high-affinity soluble CD200R agonists, including ARQ-234, showed superior efficacy in reducing immune responses in various preclinical models of inflammatory conditions, suggesting potential as a therapeutic for atopic dermatitis and other related diseases.

In this study, researchers identified a novel p.R50X mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene, linked to hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets in two siblings.

In this study, a 37-year-old Moroccan man experienced hair loss after two months of quetiapine treatment for major depressive disorder, which resolved after discontinuation, highlighting the need for awareness of this potential rare side effect.

This research reported that eflornithine HCl 13.9% cream generally has a favorable dermal safety profile for managing unwanted facial hair in women, though it can cause mild irritation under certain conditions.

This study found that a novel R343H mutation in the vitamin D receptor gene impairs its transcription activity, contributing to hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets and alopecia in the affected family.

This study identified potent dual inhibitors of 5α-reductases 1 and 2 that may aid in designing new drugs for related diseases.

This study found that the revised 43-item PCOSQ had better validity and reliability than the original version, although further studies are needed to assess its predictive efficacy.

In this case report, a 25-year-old woman with VKHD experienced an unusual occurrence of vellus-like hair growth on her normally hairless palm, observed twice over two years, expanding the known integumentary manifestations of VKHD.

This study suggests that caveolin-1 may be a potential target for treating psoriasis, as its downregulation was linked to psoriasis markers that improved with soluble caveolin scaffolding domain peptide treatment.

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

In this study, imiquimod was found to increase regression of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia compared to placebo, though it commonly caused side effects that rarely led to treatment discontinuation.
