This study suggests that a newly discovered protein, AMY117, found in Alzheimer's disease brain lesions may be crucial in the disease's development and progression.

This case report highlights two cases of alopecia areata in patients with celiac disease, noting the rare occurrence of one patient also having acquired hypertrichosis lanuginosa, which may be the first documented instance of this combination in the literature.

This review discusses the off-label use of drugs like Minoxidil, Aripripazole, and others, providing insights for physicians and pharmacists but reports no new clinical findings.

A new protein linked to Alzheimer's was discovered, and a hair loss treatment showed effectiveness but had some sexual side effects.

This abstract reports preliminary data on the antidepressant reboxetine, noted for its different mode of action, discussed at a major psychiatry conference; it provides no new research findings.

This review addresses the effects of testosterone on brain development and examines both the established sex differences in brain functions and the debate surrounding structural dimorphism in neuropsychiatric conditions.

This study found that male 5α-reductase 2 knockout mice showed deficits in social dominance behaviors and reduced dopamine receptor binding in a brain region related to social ranking.

This article discusses challenges primary care physicians face in diagnosing and treating depression, noting that up to one-third of antidepressant prescriptions involve non-indicated use; it also introduces FDA-approved treatments, esketamine nasal spray, and brexanolone IV injection.

This study used computational methods to identify pranlukast and mirabegron as promising candidates for repurposing against diabetes due to their good binding interactions with the DPP-IV target.

The meeting showcased rare skin disease cases, highlighting the need for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

This study found that glucose starvation and hypoxia are physiological triggers of ER stress in in vitro differentiated adipocytes, rather than high concentrations of saturated fatty acids, cholesterol, or proinflammatory cytokines.

This review discusses the diagnostic and treatment challenges of trichotillomania and emphasizes the need for better-designed studies to optimize treatment approaches.

In this study, finasteride was found to inhibit the dopaminergic system and reduce open-field behaviors in adolescent male rats by decreasing dopamine levels and related proteins.

This review discusses the limitations of serum androgen measurements in diagnosing and treating women with potential androgen-related disorders and the potential role of androgen replacement therapy for those with sexual interest/arousal disorders, reporting no new results.

This study found that lower serum BDNF levels were associated with higher depression severity and more severe alopecia areata in patients.

MRI helps distinguish between pituitary adenomas and craniopharyngiomas, guides treatment for pediatric CNS tumors, and assesses rhinocerebral mucormycosis with a high mortality rate in transplanted patients.
