This study found that a 3D wound model, the 3DWoundSE, showed improved responsiveness to injury and cytotoxic stimuli compared to an intact 3D skin equivalent, offering a reproducible and ethical alternative to animal models for early wound response assessment in dermatological research and drug development.

This article reviews the differential diagnosis and management approaches for androgen excess disorders, highlighting the predominance of polycystic ovary syndrome as the underlying cause and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that in men with androgenetic alopecia, elevated triglycerides were the only factor consistently associated with the condition, suggesting a potential link between AGA and lipid metabolism, although other hormonal, metabolic, and sleep factors were not significantly different after propensity score matching.

This study reports that the prevalence of female pattern hair loss increases with age, affecting 12% of women by age 29, 25% by age 50, and 41% to 50% by age 70 and older, with risk factors including genetics and certain endocrinological conditions.

This study evaluated a polyherbal hair oil formulation that included hibiscus flower and other plant extracts, suggesting it may increase hair growth, reduce hair loss, and provide dandruff protection.

This study developed a polyherbal chocolate formulation aimed at managing PCOS and hormonal balance, finding that formulation F2 showed excellent organoleptic properties and stability, with future in vivo studies being suggested.

This study found that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease was prevalent among women with polycystic ovarian syndrome and was linked to higher BMI, waist/hip ratio, testosterone levels, and deranged lipid profile.

This study observed that 65.6% of acne patients also had PCOS, with these individuals showing more severe acne, higher testosterone levels, and greater prevalence of hirsutism and androgenic alopecia compared to those with isolated acne.

This study found that dutasteride significantly reduces the risk of acute urinary retention and surgical intervention in men with benign prostatic enlargement compared to placebo.

This study developed a rapid and efficient in vitro method using high-performance liquid chromatography to screen for steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors, determining inhibition constants for Finasteride and Epristeride.

This abstract provides a brief introduction to Propecia® (finasteride 1mg) but reports no new research findings.

In this study, researchers formulated an herbal antidandruff shampoo using plant extracts like neem, fenugreek seed, aloe vera, and clove, demonstrating its antifungal activity against Malassezia furfur and potential as a natural alternative for addressing dandruff.

This case study suggests that the most likely diagnosis for the patient with a pink, scaling rash is secondary syphilis.

This review discusses the evolution of diagnostic criteria for polycystic ovary syndrome and emphasizes its association with various metabolic and cardiovascular risks, but it provides no new research findings.

This article reviews various models used in dermatopharmacology research, exploring their applications in studying skin conditions and hair growth, but reports no new findings.

This review highlights the challenges in screening for steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors and discusses significant variability in the effectiveness of finasteride and dutasteride, calling for standardized testing methods to develop safer, more specific inhibitors from herbal preparations.

This study found that metformin treatment improved clinical outcomes in Taiwanese women with polycystic ovary syndrome, notably in overweight and insulin-resistant patients.

This study found a high prevalence of sexually transmitted infections, particularly anogenital warts and syphilis, among HIV-infected adults in Serbia, underscoring the importance of education on safe sex practices.

This article discusses the characteristics, diagnosis, and clinical presentation of different variants of lichen planopilaris on the scalp, with emphasis on cicatricial alopecia and the importance of clinical and trichoscopic monitoring; it presents no new clinical results.

Certain compounds can protect hair cells from aging and promote growth.

This study found no baseline factors that predicted flibanserin efficacy for HSDD, though low testosterone or use of hormonal contraceptives were associated with reduced efficacy.

Recognizing new allergens can help reduce contact dermatitis cases.

In this study, anemia was commonly observed in exercising women, especially those with heavy menstrual bleeding, and the authors recommend using a simple screening tool involving haemoglobin testing.

This study suggests that breast cancer-associated phospholipids may alter the X-ray diffraction pattern of hair, potentially enabling the development of a sensitive and specific screening test for breast cancer.

The researchers reported finding a recessive nonsense variant in the EGFR gene responsible for perinatal lethality in the "Blonde d'Aquitaine" cattle breed, prompting the development of a screening test to help eradicate this genetic flaw.

In this study, 35.4% of telogen effluvium patients showed ferritin deficiency and 34.2% had vitamin D deficiency, suggesting these should be included in TE screening; TSH testing should be individualized.

This study review reports that alopecia areata is often associated with autoimmune thyroid diseases like Hashimoto thyroiditis, suggesting targeted thyroid screening based on symptoms and risk factors may improve detection while minimizing unnecessary tests.

In laboratory tests, this study found that aqueous extracts of Myristica fragrans showed significant membrane stabilization, suggesting its potential as an anti-inflammatory agent, though further research is needed to confirm its pharmacological application.

A new test helps find drugs to treat head and neck cancer by targeting c-Rel.

This study found that laboratory testing practices for alopecia areata vary among international hair experts, with the majority routinely conducting thyroid function and complete blood count tests, yet exhibiting diverse approaches toward testing for other conditions or before prescribing systemic therapy.
