This chapter reviews pharmacodynamic evaluations in endocrine disorders focusing on oral antidiabetics, insulin analogues, and hormone interactions, but reports no new results.

This study found that using medical terminology for newly medicalized disorders leads people to perceive them as more serious, more representative of a disease, and less common than when common language is used.

This review discusses recent advances in the genetic understanding of inherited hair and nail disorders and reports no new clinical results.

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.

This case report found that intense focused skin tightening ultrasound reduced excessive underarm sweating by nearly 80% in two patients and was associated with temporary side effects like tenderness and redness.

This study found that the urgency of self-triage decisions can be influenced by whether a disorder is presented using newer medical terminology rather than lay terms.
