Meibomian glands are highly specialized and differ significantly from other sebaceous glands in structure and function.

The conclusion is that skin, mucous, and eye problems after Stevens-Johnson syndrome and Lyell syndrome significantly affect patients' lives, highlighting the need for comprehensive care and eye check-ups.

DHT may increase the risk of heart disease and death in elderly men.

Higher dihydrotestosterone may be linked to more inflammation in COVID-19 patients with low testosterone.

Higher testosterone levels can increase the risk of certain diseases like type 2 diabetes in women and prostate cancer in men, but can also protect against autoimmune diseases and hair loss. It also affects body fat and bone density.

A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.

The patient was diagnosed with anorexia nervosa and severe malnutrition, requiring urgent refeeding and monitoring.

The Rotterdam Study found risk factors for elderly diseases, links between lifestyle and genetics with health conditions, and aimed to explore new areas like DNA methylation and sensory input effects on brain function.

The study found that alopecia areata and hypothyroidism increase the risk of each other, but androgenetic alopecia and hypothyroidism do not.

Androgen use may increase the risk of stroke, but more research is needed.

Finasteride helps reduce lung inflammation and damage after trauma and infection.

A special hydrogel helps heal skin without scars and regrows hair.

Antiandrogens are effective for conditions like prostate cancer and skin issues, but more research is needed to confirm their benefits and minimize side effects.

Finasteride improves immune response and reduces organ damage after trauma hemorrhage in mice.

Antiandrogens have important biological effects, but more research is needed to understand them fully and compare their effectiveness and side effects to other treatments.

Hair loss patients have different microbes in hair follicles, possibly affecting hair loss.

Measuring the distance from the anus to the clitoris may moderately help diagnose polycystic ovary syndrome, especially in certain cases.

The Rotterdam Study aims to understand various diseases in older adults.

Men generally have more severe COVID-19 cases and higher death rates than women due to biological differences.

Lamins are vital for cell survival, organ development, and preventing premature aging.

Lymphocytes, especially CD8+ T cells, play a key role in causing alopecia areata, and targeting them may lead to new treatments.

The document concludes that future heart disease research should account for sex-specific differences to improve diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes.
