Many COVID-19 survivors experience long-term symptoms like fatigue and sleep issues, needing ongoing medical support.

This review explores potential early-stage pharmacologic interventions for COVID-19 by targeting virus entry into host cells, identifying several existing drugs for further investigation, but reports no new clinical results.

This study concluded that dermoscopy enhances the diagnostic capability for cicatricial alopecia beyond clinical inspection and identified novel dermoscopic features such as blue-grey dots.

This study suggests that finasteride may be a promising treatment for chronic central serous chorioretinopathy, but larger controlled trials are needed to confirm its efficacy.

Skin stem cells maintain and repair the outer layer of skin, with some types being essential for healing wounds.

This study found that a 6-month treatment with either metformin or rosiglitazone significantly improved endothelial function in young women with PCOS without any one drug being superior.

The study found that severe insulin resistance and premature diabetes are common in patients with PCNT genetic defects, primarily affecting those over four years old, while not impacting early insulin signaling in adipocytes.

Using finasteride with TIP extends time off period for prostate cancer patients.

This review discusses the unique capacity of fetal skin to heal wounds without scarring and notes that while many factors have been identified, the complete mechanism of fetal wound healing remains unclear.

This review discusses cutaneous adverse effects of psychotropic medications and reports no new findings, emphasizing the importance of psychiatrists being aware of these potential skin reactions.

This review of stem cell-based tissue engineering treatments in preclinical burn wound models reports promising improvements in skin repair, suggesting potential as an enhanced therapy for burn wounds.

This review discusses the potential role of androgen receptor CAG repeat polymorphism testing in hypogonadism management for both sexes, but its clinical utility remains unclear and requires further investigation.

This study reported no significant improvement in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia treated with various therapeutic agents, highlighting the need for more evidence-based treatments, especially in those with active disease.

This study observed that dental erosion was common among adolescents in Pasto, Colombia, with dietary habits like frequent juice consumption and snacking on artificially flavored lemon products linked to increased risk.

This study found that using valproic acid during radiotherapy for glioma was associated with delayed hair loss and improved survival outcomes.

This study found that long-term finasteride therapy in men with BPH worsened erectile dysfunction and reduced testosterone levels, while these effects were not observed with tamsulosin.

A fatty acid/protein complex in human hair helps protect it from damage.

This literature review suggests that early and aggressive intervention may improve outcomes for avulsive ballistic facial injuries, although further comparative studies are needed.

This study reported that new drugs, despite lower specificity compared to certain immunobiological therapies, are effective across various challenging dermatological diseases, such as psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, atopic dermatitis, alopecia areata, and vitiligo.

This study identified a new subtype of lichen planopilaris that mimics androgenetic alopecia, selectively affecting vellus hair follicles and presenting unique histopathological features.

In this randomized controlled trial, occipital donor sites for split-thickness skin grafts showed superior re-epithelialization, reduced pain, fewer complications, and better cosmetic outcomes compared to femoral donor sites.

This study reported that an open surgical technique for lateral brow lifts produced satisfactory results in most patients (94.41%) and was associated with long-lasting effects and some complications.

This study found that prolonged acute tissue expansion notably increased the amount of scalp tissue removed during scalp reduction surgery in three patients.

This study suggests that using both finasteride and dutasteride may increase the risk of acute coronary syndrome in patients with benign prostate hyperplasia.

This study found that the distribution of mast cell prostaglandin d-synthase in the scalp spatially aligns with the pattern of androgenetic alopecia, suggesting a programmed vulnerability to hair loss.

This study found that men with androgenetic alopecia at age 20 years may have a higher risk of developing aggressive prostate cancer, particularly advanced stage disease.

This study used in vivo confocal microscopy and a ResNet34 deep learning model to classify meibomian gland images with an AUROC greater than 0.95, indicating its potential for automatic diagnosis and screening of meibomian gland dysfunction.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy can identify four specific hair morphology patterns in alopecia areata patients, offering a less invasive diagnostic option compared to punch biopsy.

This article reviews the commonality of androgenic alopecia in men over 30 and the use of finasteride, without reporting new research findings.
