This study found that PRP injections may safely improve penile curvature and PDQ scores in men with stable-phase Peyronie's Disease, although the curvature reduction observed was not enough to determine long-term clinical significance.

This study found that women with negative or mixed feelings about Botox and facial fillers reported diverse and sometimes persistent physical and psychological impacts, feeling commodified, fractured, abandoned, reflective, and transformed.

This review discusses the protective roles of skin-resident immune cells in maintaining tissue homeostasis and facilitating wound healing, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study explores how Ayurveda concepts, specifically Prakruti, relate to male pattern baldness, suggesting that individual constitutional types may predict susceptibility to earlier hair loss when influenced by modern lifestyle factors.

This study found that 78% of patients continued taking oral minoxidil for androgenetic or traction alopecia, with 33% reporting decreased hair shedding and 28% noting increased scalp hair.

In this study, transplantation of hair follicle stem cells and nerve growth factor-modified stem cells significantly reduced amyloid deposition and tau hyperphosphorylation in an Alzheimer's disease rat model, suggesting potential as a treatment option.

This study developed a multifunctional injectable hydrogel that effectively provided hemostasis and accelerated healing of infected skin wounds, demonstrating significant potential for clinical wound dressing applications.

This study found that the ovarian stromal area to total ovarian area ratio alone is not a strong predictor of biochemical hyperandrogenism in Thai women with PCOS, but combining it with clinical hyperandrogenism improves prediction.

This study found that free testosterone levels were a more sensitive indicator of hyperandrogenism in women with acne than total testosterone levels.

This review highlights that idiopathic hirsutism is characterized by local hyperandrogenization affecting hair growth, without other signs of hyperandrogenism, and shows no new results; racial differences in prevalence are noted but not in androgenic steroids.

This study found that scalp injection of fat enriched with stem cells may offer a promising alternative for treating early genetic alopecia in both men and women.

This article provides an endocrine perspective on evaluating and managing hirsutism but reports no new research findings.

This article reviews assessment and management strategies for adolescent females with excessive hair growth and highlights the importance of evaluating potential androgen sources.

This review aims to help medical practitioners understand inferential statistical methods to critically evaluate clinical trial design and analyses, but it doesn’t present new research findings.

This study reports improved methods for harvesting and processing keratinocytes from plucked human hair, enhancing their utility in generating donor-specific induced pluripotent stem cells more efficiently and reliably.

This article reviews the process of obtaining NHS ethical approval for research involving children and highlights the challenges faced in interdisciplinary work, without presenting new research results.

This article discusses ovarian steroid cell tumors, which can produce testosterone and manifest symptoms like hirsutism, emphasizing surgery as the primary treatment, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that activating CB1 receptor signaling in human hair follicles increased stem cell proliferation while reducing differentiated cell survival, suggesting CB1's role as a survival stimulus for epithelial stem cells.

The researchers reviewed artificial hair implantation's history and controversies, noting that studies show promise but suffer from poor methodology. They emphasized the need for higher-quality research to confirm the procedure's safety and efficacy.
