This study explored the complex roles of niche cells in regulating hair follicle stem cells, identifying specific cell functions such as signaling, sensing, and relaying messages, which could provide insights into treating hair loss conditions like androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata.

In this case series, four adults developed severe, disabling multisymptom illness potentially linked to fluoroquinolone use, which persisted and progressed even after discontinuation of the drug.

This study investigated a patient with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy who had 68 CAG repeats, revealing early onset and unique symptoms not previously documented in the condition.

This narrative review summarizes evidence on NAD⁺ biosynthesis and turnover, highlighting that while NAD⁺ precursors like NR and NMN consistently boost NAD⁺ levels in preclinical and human studies, clinical outcome results remain varied, indicating a need for more standardized human trials.

This study suggests that inhibitors of steroidogenic enzymes may have therapeutic potential for certain behavioral disorders linked to dopaminergic hyperfunction, despite concerns about their endocrine impacts.

This paper describes the development of diagnostic criteria for several enduring sexual dysfunction conditions following the use of certain medications, highlighting common sexual and non-sexual symptoms.

This review discusses post-finasteride syndrome, emphasizing its serious psychological and cognitive symptoms and the need for more research and awareness in the medical community, but provides no new clinical findings.

This paper discusses the adverse effects of finasteride, including sexual dysfunction and depression, and suggests that treatment customization based on individual factors like hand preference and sexual orientation could improve outcomes and reduce these side effects.

Menopause often leads to lower sexual desire and discomfort during sex, but treatment should be personalized and only if it bothers the woman.

This study identified the TALE homeodomain transcription factor Meis2 as a crucial regulator for the maturation and end-organ innervation of certain mechanoreceptors in mice, with its absence leading to altered sensory neuron structure and impaired touch sensitivity.

This review discusses the neurobiology of sexual function and reports no new results; the authors cover multiple endocrine and neurotransmitter influences on sexual desire, arousal, and orgasm stages.

This study highlights that adverse effects from finasteride may persist in men after discontinuation, indicating a potential "post-finasteride syndrome.

This article discusses Kennedy's disease, detailing its genetic cause, symptoms, and diagnostic criteria, but reports no new clinical findings and highlights a lack of causal therapy.

This study found that patients with post-finasteride syndrome exhibited major depressive disorder, severe erectile dysfunction, and neuropathy, alongside altered neuroactive steroid levels in cerebrospinal fluid.

This article reviews the challenges of using disease-modifying therapy for multiple sclerosis and offers strategies to improve treatment adherence and manage adverse effects, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study observed that Ptprq mutant mice exhibit significant abnormalities in hair bundle structure and vestibular dysfunction, suggesting similar issues may contribute to hearing loss and vestibular problems in humans with PTPRQ mutations.

This review examines medical literature on postfinasteride syndrome and reports no new results; the authors call for more controlled studies on permanent sexual dysfunction and mood changes linked to 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors.

This study found that in Japanese male patients with androgenetic alopecia, dutasteride 0.5 mg daily over 52 weeks was associated with improvements in hair growth and appearance, with reported adverse events mostly mild.

This review covers recent developments in inner ear therapeutics and gene delivery methods but reports no new clinical results; it highlights potential strategies for treating hearing and balance disorders.

This article discusses nutritional contributions to hair health and highlights the need for identifying risk factors for deficiencies but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the multifaceted roles of hair follicles in skin health, including potential contributions to skin neoplasias, and reports no new results.

In this study, researchers observed that spiral ganglion neurites created more branched networks near FGF-1-coupled beads compared to control beads, highlighting FGF-1's role in hair cell innervation development.

This review discusses sexual side effects in men with androgenic alopecia treated with 5-alpha reductase inhibitors and reports no new clinical findings.

This review explores how androgen administration might help alleviate inflammation and mitochondrial impairment in traumatic brain injury but reports no new experimental findings, calling attention to the need for further investigation.

This case report identifies two specific mutations in the WRN gene in a 40-year-old female with Werner syndrome, highlighting the need for awareness of its early manifestations and treatment options.

In this study, finasteride was found to potentiate stress-induced disruption in sensory gating of rats by neutralizing the increase in allopregnanolone levels after acute stress.

This review discusses the challenges of diagnosing and managing somatization in dermatology patients, highlighting the need for comprehensive evaluation of unexplained dermatologic symptoms, and reports no new results.

This abstract describes a study that found fluoxetine HCl can be absorbed through cat skin when applied as a transdermal gel, though its bioavailability was about 10% compared to oral dosing.

This study explores the potential of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) as a novel adjuvant therapy for eczema, positing that it may alleviate inflammation, enhance skin barrier function, and reduce recurrence.

In this study, researchers reviewed the roles of autophagy and mitophagy in hair follicle cycles, exploring their potential links to hair loss and investigating how manipulating these pathways might offer new therapeutic strategies.
