research The Effect of 5α-Reductase Inhibition with Dutasteride and Finasteride on Semen Parameters and Serum Hormones in Healthy Men
Dutasteride and finasteride may reduce sperm count and volume but don't affect movement or shape; effects are reversible after stopping.
research The Effects of Two Doses of Spironolactone on Serum Androgens and Anagen Hair in Hirsute Women
Spironolactone reduced hair thickness and some testosterone levels in women with excessive hair growth.
research A Nonredundant Human Protein Chip for Antibody Screening and Serum Profiling
The technology can help diagnose and subtype autoimmune diseases by identifying specific autoantibodies.
research Effect of 1 mg/Day Finasteride on Concentrations of Serum Prostate-Specific Antigen in Men With Androgenic Alopecia: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Taking 1 mg/day finasteride for hair loss significantly lowers PSA levels in men, which may affect prostate cancer screening.
research There Is No Clear Association Between Low Serum Ferritin And Chronic Diffuse Telogen Hair Loss
Low iron levels are not directly linked to chronic hair loss and iron supplements may not help.
research The Importance of Adequate Serum Ferritin Levels During Oral Cyproterone Acetate and Ethinyl Estradiol Treatment of Diffuse Androgen-Dependent Alopecia in Women

research Exogenous Testosterone Alone or With Finasteride Does Not Improve Measurements of Cognition in Healthy Older Men With Low Serum Testosterone
Testosterone with or without finasteride doesn't improve thinking skills in older men with low testosterone.
research Analysis of Serum Zinc and Copper Concentrations in Hair Loss
People with hair loss, especially those with certain types, have lower zinc levels, and zinc supplements might help.
research The Effect of 5α-Reductase Inhibition With Dutasteride and Finasteride on Bone Mineral Density, Serum Lipoproteins, Hemoglobin, Prostate Specific Antigen, and Sexual Function in Healthy Young Men
Dutasteride and finasteride do not significantly affect bone density, blood fats, or blood production, but slightly lower PSA levels and minimally impact sexual function in healthy young men.
research Serum Biotin Levels in Women Complaining of Hair Loss
Biotin deficiency is not a major cause of hair loss in women, so biotin supplements are not likely to be an effective hair loss treatment.
research Serum Metabolomics Study of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Based on Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry
Women with PCOS have different levels of certain fats and proteins in their blood, which could help diagnose the condition.
research The Therapeutic Effect and Changed Serum Zinc Level After Zinc Supplementation in Alopecia Areata Patients with Low Serum Zinc Level
Zinc supplements increased zinc levels in some hair loss patients but didn't significantly improve hair growth.
research The Effects of Finasteride on Scalp Skin and Serum Androgen Levels in Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride effectively reduces hair loss by decreasing androgen levels.
research Serum Ferritin and Vitamin D in Female Hair Loss: Do They Play a Role?
Low iron and vitamin D levels are linked to hair loss in women.
research No Association Between Serum Ferritin Levels Greater Than 10 μg/l and Hair Loss Activity in Women
Higher iron levels in the blood are not linked to increased hair loss in women.
research Serum Levels of Retinol-Binding Protein 4 and Adiponectin in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Associations with Visceral Fat but No Evidence for Fat Mass-Independent Effects on Pathogenesis in This Condition
Women with PCOS have similar levels of certain proteins compared to women without PCOS, and these proteins don't independently cause PCOS.
research Effects of a Novel Finasteride 0.25% Topical Solution on Scalp and Serum Dihydrotestosterone in Healthy Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
The 0.25% finasteride solution, when applied once a day, effectively reduces scalp DHT, potentially minimizing sexual side-effects linked to a systemic DHT reduction.
research SLE and Serum Complement: Causative, Concomitant or Coincidental?
Low serum complement levels in SLE patients don't always match with disease flares; monitoring C3 and C4 is useful, but cell-bound complement products might better indicate disease activity.
research Proliferation and Differentiation of Cultured Human Keratinocytes Is Modulated by 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 and Synthetic Vitamin D3 Analogues in a Cell Density-, Calcium-, and Serum-Dependent Manner
Vitamin D3 and its analogues affect skin cell growth and development depending on cell density, calcium levels, and serum presence.
research BMI and Levels of Zinc, Copper in Hair, Serum, and Urine of Turkish Male Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia
Lower hair zinc and copper levels found in Turkish males with hair loss; higher BMI linked to less hair zinc.
research The Influence of Valproic Acid Treatment on Hair and Serum Zinc Levels and Serum Biotinidase Activity
Valproic acid treatment may cause temporary hair loss due to reduced zinc and biotinidase levels, which tend to normalize after 6 months.
research Serum Androgens and Genetic Linkage Analysis in Early Onset Androgenetic Alopecia
