This study presents a new survey instrument that was cognitively tested for understanding menstrual cycle characteristics and androgen excess, including hirsutism, alopecia, and acne.

This study evaluated an online survey tool designed to identify polycystic ovary syndrome, identifying areas for improvement that can aid in accurately assessing PCOS prevalence in general populations.

This essay discusses the relationship between communication and a sense of self through the metaphor of material, drawing on a children's story to explore the material basis of storytelling and creation, without providing new research results.

This study found that the urgency of self-triage decisions can be influenced by whether a disorder is presented using newer medical terminology rather than lay terms.

This scoping review seeks to map existing research on appearance care and self-management for adolescent and young adult cancer survivors in Japan, aiming to highlight knowledge gaps and guide future studies and interventions to enhance supportive care for this population.

This study found that a significant portion of the Beyond-COVID cohort reported persistent symptoms, with Omicron variants showing lower rates and severity of symptoms compared to other variants.

This study found that a sericin-based hydrogel containing Psidium guajava L. extract significantly improved healing of full-thickness burn wounds in mice, with 89.66% wound closure by day 15 compared to 37.16% in controls, and exhibited beneficial effects on inflammation and oxidative stress markers.

Low oxygen and metabolic changes help organoids grow and repair tissues.

This study found that total head shaving during brain tumor surgery is significantly associated with lower postoperative self-esteem in patients, suggesting that minimizing shaving when possible could improve psychological recovery.

This study reviewed the use of self-supervised Auto ML models for detecting alopecia areata, finding significant advancements in automated diagnosis but also challenges such as model explainability and data bias, which may guide future AI-driven dermatological diagnostics.

In this study, the researchers found no link between finasteride use and increased suicide attempt risk among Danish males, noting unadjusted and adjusted odds ratios close to one.

In diabetic mice, this study reported that the multifunctional hydrogel CPGel achieved complete wound closure in 21 days, showing promise in improving chronic wound healing through antibacterial, antioxidative, and tissue regeneration properties.

In this study, researchers found that the histone demethylase UTX is crucial for regulating skin differentiation through retinoic acid signaling, mainly impacting females, as males compensate with a Y-linked paralog.

This study found that OCT4-overexpressing human hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells show promise for artificial hematopoiesis by enhancing self-renewal through cytoskeletal remodeling and the beta-catenin-dependent adherens junction pathway.

In this study, a novel injectable hydrogel with antibacterial and hemostatic properties showed promise in promoting the healing of MRSA-infected skin wounds.

In this study, women with a PCOS diagnosis were more likely to report clinical signs of androgen excess, including hirsutism, acne, and alopecia, with ethnic patterns in symptom prevalence.

This study found that seniors using finasteride or dutasteride for benign prostatic hyperplasia may have an increased risk of depression and self-harm, especially during the first 18 months of treatment.

This study found that finasteride reduced opioid self-administration in zebrafish and rats without affecting pain relief, suggesting steroidogenic pathways may offer new treatment avenues for opioid use disorder.

In this study, knockout of B-raf and C-raf genes in mice showed they are not needed for early melanocyte development, but are crucial for maintaining melanocyte stem cells, as evidenced by hair graying due to stem cell depletion.

This study reports that increased knowledge of chemotherapy side effects is moderately associated with improved self-care practices among cancer patients.

In this study, researchers developed a hyaluronic acid-coated copper peroxide nano-antimicrobial system that demonstrated precise antimicrobial activity and accelerated wound healing by releasing reactive oxygen species in response to bacterial enzymes, in both laboratory and animal tests.

In this study, nursing interventions based on the health belief model improved medication compliance, reduced self-perceived burden, and enhanced quality of life in renal transplant recipients compared to routine nursing care.

In this study, patients with polycystic ovary syndrome self-reported higher hirsutism scores compared to clinician assessments, but only clinician scores correlated with biochemical markers of hyperandrogenism.

In this study, researchers developed an in vitro airway-organoid model using human lung-derived cell lines on RADA16-I hydrogels to serve as a potential tool for studying adenovirus isolation, pathogenesis, and antiviral drug screening.

Finasteride reduces opioid use and withdrawal symptoms in animals.

This review examines regulatory mechanisms of quiescent stem cells in tissue homeostasis, drawing on observations from the intestine and other self-renewing tissues, without presenting new data.

This study found that a bilayer wound dressing capable of releasing hydrogen sulfide promoted wound healing in rats by reducing inflammation, enhancing vascularization, and facilitating hair follicle regeneration.

This study found that relatives of women with symptoms of oligo-amenorrhoea and hirsutism experienced higher rates of hirsutism, menstrual disorders, infertility, childlessness, diabetes, and hypertension compared to relatives of symptomless women.
