This review discusses 46,XY disorders of sex development caused by defects in androgen production and highlights the need for long-term care from experienced multidisciplinary teams, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the various causes of hirsutism other than PCOS, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing potentially life-threatening conditions like androgen-secreting tumors from more benign causes; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found no statistically significant association between the use of 5α-reductase inhibitors and male breast cancer incidence.

This review discusses the unique healthcare needs and disparities faced by transgender individuals, highlighting the importance of cultural competency and skills in providers, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that finasteride alone is highly effective in preventing Candida albicans urinary biofilms and shows synergistic activity with fluconazole in vitro, suggesting potential for further clinical investigation.

This review discusses the side effects associated with ovarian cancer treatment and highlights the need for tools to assess, prevent, and manage these effects; it reports no clinical results.

This review discusses potential treatments for androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no new findings, emphasizing the importance of individualized antiandrogenic management to minimize side effects.

This commentary honors Shoji Okuda's pioneering but overlooked work on hair transplantation techniques from 1939, detailing comprehensive experiments that were rediscovered and translated into English decades later.

This review discusses available treatments for androgenetic alopecia in men, like finasteride and 5% minoxidil, and notes that hair growth results are unpredictable and often driven by industry-sponsored studies.

This review systematically analyzed 22 clinical trials on hair care, finding that while most studies employed appropriate statistical methods, significant inconsistencies in reporting test assumptions and effect sizes may hinder reproducibility, highlighting a need for better standardization and transparency in these research practices.

This review discusses the topical use of systemic drugs for cutaneous disorders and reports a lack of strong evidence from randomized controlled trials, highlighting the need for larger comparative effectiveness studies.

In this study, spironolactone and spironolactone plus metformin both significantly reduced hirsutism scores in women with PCOS, but the combination therapy was not more effective than spironolactone alone regarding BMI, hormone levels, or insulin resistance.

This systematic review found that chitosan-based wound therapy may accelerate wound healing by reducing inflammation and modulating immune response, but notes limited clinical trials to date.

This review highlights that nanoemulsions, especially those with droplet sizes under 200 nm, show promise in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics by improving drug stability, bioavailability, and reducing side effects, with potential applications in CNS diseases, cancer treatments, and skincare products.

This study found that using a standardized protocol with microspheres of approximately 1.5 micrometers enhances penetration into hair follicles, particularly when skin is treated with cyanoacrylate skin surface stripping.

This review discusses the effects of visible light on human skin, highlighting its role in pigmentation, thermal damage, and the treatment of several skin conditions, while noting limited sunscreen protection against it; no new clinical results are reported.

This review discusses the development and applications of microneedles, particularly through 3D printing, highlighting their potential in transdermal drug delivery but reporting no new results.

This study suggests that using particle-bound antiseptics may provide more effective and longer-lasting skin antisepsis compared to their non-particulate forms.

This study discusses the potential of thermoresponsive nanogels for improving dermal delivery of therapeutics, highlighting their ability to enhance skin penetration and control drug release with minimal damage to the skin's natural barrier.

This article discusses strategies for changing hair color by regulating target genes in hair follicles using advanced delivery systems, but it reports no new experimental findings.

This study observed that in mice, small-scale x-ray irradiation resulted in uniquely rapid healing of hair follicles, differing from the hypertrophic and hyperplastic responses seen in larger irradiated areas.

Nanoparticles can be used to deliver drugs to hair follicles, potentially improving treatments for conditions like acne and alopecia, and could also be used for vaccine delivery and gene therapy.
