This case report describes a 19-year-old female who experienced reversible severe alopecia and ascites after a large partial hepatectomy for minimal deviation hepatoma, despite incomplete liver regeneration.

This study suggests that Vigilon®, a new occlusive wound dressing with high water content, may promote better wound healing than other similar dressings in dermatologic surgery.

This study found that liposomes coated with cationic polymers, chitosan and Eudragit EPO, showed improved physicochemical stability and enhanced skin diffusion of aciclovir and minoxidil compared to uncoated liposomes.

This study reported new crystallographic structures and polymorphs of finasteride, including several solvates with distinct X-ray diffraction patterns and thermally characterized properties.

This article reviews hair analysis for drug detection and its applications in various fields, but reports no new research findings, emphasizing the need to consider the method's complexities and potential pitfalls.

This study found that 4 weeks of finasteride treatment significantly decreased DHT levels in bald scalp to levels similar to hair-containing scalp in men with male pattern baldness.

This study found that finasteride may decrease and control the frequency of priapism episodes in patients with sickle cell anemia, with fewer side effects compared to other treatments.

This review discusses the range and causes of adipose tissue diseases, emphasizing genetic and acquired forms of lipodystrophy, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review highlights that idiopathic hirsutism is characterized by local hyperandrogenization affecting hair growth, without other signs of hyperandrogenism, and shows no new results; racial differences in prevalence are noted but not in androgenic steroids.

This review discusses the symptoms, diagnosis, and current treatment recommendations for polycystic ovary syndrome, noting that many women may remain undiagnosed and at risk for complications.

This review discusses the steroidogenic properties of human skin and suggests that impaired steroidogenesis may be linked to conditions like acne, rosacea, atopic dermatitis, and androgenic alopecia, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that women with androgenetic alopecia showed higher levels of certain hormones and lower levels of sex hormone-binding globulin than healthy controls, potentially linking these factors to alopecia severity.

This study found that women with PCOS had lower fasting serum ghrelin levels and a reduced ghrelin response to an oral glucose load compared to controls, with an inverse relationship to insulin resistance.

Minoxidil controls blood pressure but may cause kidney damage and needs diuretics to prevent swelling.

This study found that the DexIEME hydrogel promotes complete skin regeneration and scar attenuation in murine and porcine models, suggesting potential for treating deep dermal injuries.

This review explores the connection between psoriasis and hair loss, noting that both the disease and its treatments can contribute to alopecia, and reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that 2% minoxidil solution was at least as effective as 3% for increasing hair growth and stabilizing bald areas in men with male pattern baldness.

This case report describes a patient with an allergic sensitization to minoxidil, indicating that such patients should pursue alternative therapies to treat androgenetic alopecia.

This paper discusses the limitations of clinical trials in evaluating combination treatment regimens for Alzheimer's disease and ischemic stroke, highlighting the extensive resources required for such trials.

In this systematic review and meta-analysis, methotrexate and leflunomide were compared for treating rheumatoid arthritis, showing similar efficacy overall. Methotrexate reduced swollen joints more effectively, while leflunomide was associated with fewer gastrointestinal side effects but more frequent liver enzyme increases.

In this study, most hair disorders among HIV-1 positive patients were associated with low helper T cell counts, with papulosquamous conditions like seborrheic dermatitis and psoriasis being the most common.

In this study, the combination of finasteride and minoxidil significantly increased hair growth in balding male stumptail macaques compared to each drug alone.

This study found that co-delivery of minoxidil and caffeine in transfersomes with an optimized polysorbate formulation enhanced hair length and weight in vivo.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, focusing on its multifactorial etiology and challenges in clinical diagnosis, and calls for more research and better treatment options.

This review summarizes the effects and complications of bariatric surgery on skin, noting it can alter existing skin conditions like psoriasis and trigger new dermatoses, but provides no new clinical results.

This review discusses the differential diagnosis of low-renin hypertension and highlights recent genetic discoveries related to familial forms, but it presents no new clinical results.

In this study, finasteride treatment did not negatively impact bone development or density in male rats, suggesting that DHT deficiency is not harmful to the male rat skeleton.

This study found that men with androgenetic alopecia had significantly lower levels of sex hormone binding globulin and higher salivary testosterone compared to controls, while plasma testosterone levels did not differ.

This document studied minoxidil in healthy volunteers. Minoxidil is quickly absorbed and eliminated from the body.
