This study found that liarozole is more effective than cyproterone acetate for improving PSA response and survival in metastatic prostate cancer after first-line endocrine therapy, while maintaining quality of life.

In this study, the researchers reported that baricitinib improved hair loss in a real-world setting for Japanese adults with alopecia areata, with a 64.7% success rate at 60 weeks, though prolonged episodes reduced efficacy. Common side effects were acne and mildly decreased renal function.

This study found that oral isotretinoin may slightly improve physician-assessed acne severity but is associated with more minor adverse effects compared to standard oral antibiotics plus topical treatment, based on low-quality evidence.

This article discusses the potential of topical ruxolitinib as a treatment for alopecia universalis and acknowledges the need for alternatives to systemic JAK inhibitors due to the risk of serious side effects.

This study found that rapidly administered intravenous cimetidine may cause a significant drop in blood pressure in critically ill patients, whereas ranitidine does not appear to have the same effect.

This study found that while both topical cetirizine and minoxidil improved female pattern hair loss, minoxidil was significantly more effective in increasing hair density.

This case report describes a patient with lamotrigine-associated drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome requiring prolonged and complex treatment, with observed complications including extensive alopecia areata and autoimmune thyroiditis.

This case report describes a 48-year-old male with severe, itchy hypertrophic lichen planus who showed a 90% improvement in lesions following 4 months of treatment with oral acitretin, with no recurrence 6 months posttreatment.

This study suggests that both the central biosynthesis and metabolism of progesterone to 3α,5α‐THP in the ventral tegmental area are crucial for facilitating lordosis in female rats.

This study found that the LH response to nafarelin effectively distinguished gonadotropin deficiency from constitutional delay of puberty, performing comparably to the sleep test and offering certain advantages.

In this study, the novel isoprenylcysteine analog SIG-1451 was shown to inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokine release in various cell-based assays relevant to allergic dermatitis, acting on targets such as IL-4 and IL-6 with potential anti-inflammatory benefits.

In this study, Chinese children with central precocious puberty receiving 6-monthly injections of triptorelin showed luteinizing hormone suppression and slowed development of sexual characteristics over 12 months, without severe adverse events, suggesting it may be an effective treatment option for this population.

This study found that applying ivermectin 1% cream significantly improved both visible symptoms like erythema and invisible symptoms such as stinging, burning, and dryness in rosacea patients over a period of at least 16 weeks.

This study reported that extended-release valproate significantly reduced seizure frequency and improved quality of life in epilepsy patients over six months, despite some adverse effects like weight gain and tremor.

This study reports a case where a patient with rheumatoid arthritis and alopecia areata saw significant improvement in both conditions after switching to daily upadacitinib treatment, specifically achieving complete hair regrowth within six months.

This study found that red ginseng oil (RXGIN) significantly improved lower urinary tract symptoms and some aspects of sexual function in men, with no serious adverse events reported.

This study developed and validated a label-free assay using LC-MS to screen for S5αR inhibitors, identifying Thai herbal extracts, Impatiens balsamina L. and Curcuma longa L., as promising sources.

Current evidence reviewed in this study indicates that finasteride, a drug for hair loss, can cause depression and suicidality, with delayed recognition partly due to insufficient post-approval pharmacovigilance by manufacturers and regulators.

Minoxidil helps lower high blood pressure in kids, but can cause fluid retention and hair growth.

In this case study, a 5-year-old girl with alopecia areata and atopic dermatitis that were unresponsive to previous treatments achieved substantial improvement with long-term tofacitinib, highlighting its potential safety and efficacy in managing both conditions concurrently.

Among participants in a 26-week trial, this study by REVIAN Inc. reported that their REVIAN RED dual wavelength LED light treatment for androgenetic alopecia was both safe and effective at the 16-week mark.

This study identified LY191704 as a specific noncompetitive inhibitor of human 5 alpha-reductase type 1, which may be useful in treating endocrine disorders related to DHT overproduction.

This review discusses the potential uses of 5α-reductase inhibitors for conditions ranging from benign prostatic hyperplasia to skin disorders like acne and male pattern baldness, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that clinicians treating alopecia areata prioritize JAK inhibitor treatments with higher efficacy and faster initial hair growth, regardless of dosing frequency, and preferred the treatment option with ritlecitinib 50-mg data the least among several blinded profiles.

This study found that the synthetic retinoid EC23 effectively induces keratinocyte hyperproliferation and enhances hair growth in mice, showing more potency than all-trans retinoic acid.

In this study, a herbal mixture (RAA) was found to promote hair growth in mice, showing increases in hair density and follicle size similar to minoxidil treatment.

This study found that videoconferencing enabled reliable and consistent assessment of negative symptoms in patients with schizophrenia, demonstrating high interrater reliability among blinded independent raters.
