This study found that adding hydroxypropyl cellulose to minoxidil formulations significantly increased scalp retention and penetration compared to other formulations, potentially leading to reduced application frequency and improved efficacy.

This case report describes a 30-year-old man's scleroderma-like skin changes and segmental thrombosis in the left leg, along with elevated blood sugar and advised weight management and limb care.

This study demonstrates that exfoliative cutaneous lupus erythematosus in German short-haired pointers involves a cellular and humoral immune response against the epidermal basement membrane, with poor response to immunosuppressive therapy.

This review discusses common hair and nail diseases in the elderly and reports no new clinical results, noting their significant impact on quality of life.

Minoxidil lowers blood pressure and increases heart efficiency, but may raise lung artery pressure in some people.

This case report highlights the first known instance of ANA-negative systemic lupus erythematosus presenting as spontaneous coronary artery dissection, emphasizing a need for rheumatological evaluation in such patients.

This study found that topically administered spironolactone in healthy volunteers resulted in no detectable systemic absorption or changes in related hormone levels over 72 hours, indicating local effect only.

This study found that incorporating 0.5% TPGS into topical minoxidil solutions enhanced hair growth in mice, although increasing TPGS to 2% decreased effectiveness.

This review discusses current topical treatments, natural products, and complementary therapies for androgenetic alopecia, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study examined 27 DRESS patients diagnosed in Thailand, identifying phenytoin, allopurinol, and nevirapine as common causes, with a 3.7% mortality rate and systemic corticosteroids being a common treatment.

This article reviews challenges in diagnosing new-onset SLE during pregnancy, emphasizing the complexity of distinguishing it from normal pregnancy changes and preeclampsia, and reports no new results.

This study suggests that epidermal turnover could be a regulated mechanism of iron excretion, with systemic iron levels influencing keratinocyte behavior and differentiation markers in the skin.
