This study observed that a video-assisted teaching program significantly improved the knowledge of polycystic ovarian syndrome among female computer engineering students, with a notable increase from poor to excellent understanding from pre-test to post-test.

This study found that a single topical dose of fluralaner effectively eliminated Lynxacarus radovskyi mites from naturally infested domestic cats within 42 days, with treated cats remaining mite-free until day 98, unlike the untreated control group which continued to test positive.

This study, conducted on 17 dogs with hyperadrenocorticism in Germany, concluded that while common symptoms like polyuria and polydipsia were observed in all cases, clinical signs and blood parameters did not significantly correlate with diagnostic test results for the condition.

In this community outreach, participants in Langkat were educated about the benefits of gotu kola leaves as a natural facial moisturizer, resulting in improved knowledge, especially among children, teenagers, and mothers, as shown by pre- and post-test gains.

This review discusses zinc's role in dog nutrition, emphasizing that zinc absorption may be improved when provided as an amino acid chelate rather than an inorganic source, but reports no new results.

This study found that 42% of healthy men aged 18-49 in a community setting experienced moderate to extensive male pattern hair loss.

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 study reported that a new two-point bending stiffness method effectively correlated with sensory assessments for hair styling gels but not for hair styling sprays, likely due to differences in polymer/hair composites.

In this study, researchers examined the genetic factors impacting cortisol and DHEA concentrations in the hair of healthy pigs; they found that cortisol levels were heritable and genetically correlated with behavioral stress responses, suggesting these hormones could potentially serve as indicators for selecting disease-resilient pigs.

This case report highlights the significance of alopecia totalis and knuckle pad hyperpigmentation as early indicators of azathioprine-induced myelosuppression and pancytopenia.

This review discusses zinc's role in dog metabolism and suggests that zinc from amino acid chelates might be better absorbed than from inorganic sources, but reports no new experimental results.

The researchers reported that finasteride prevents further hair loss in males with androgenetic alopecia by promoting hair growth, which helps maintain scalp coverage, but it is not effective for females.

This review discusses strategies for developing semi-solid topical generic products to match the quality of reference-listed drugs, using concepts like quality by design and reverse-engineering, but reports no new results.

In this study, patients receiving adipose-derived stromal vascular cell transplantation for alopecia areata experienced significant hair regeneration, increased growth, and improved hair quality after 3 and 6 months, indicating potential efficacy of this stem cell-based therapy for hair loss.

This article provides an overview of diagnosing Cushing's syndrome, emphasizing the importance of assessing clinical signs and the appropriate use of first-line biochemical screening.

This study found that Malassezia carriage was significantly more common among participants experiencing hair shedding, suggesting a potential link between this fungal presence and hair loss.

This study suggests that botanical 5AR inhibitors like Serenoa repens and β-sitosterol may improve symptoms of androgenetic alopecia, with 60% of treated subjects showing improvement compared to placebo.

This article discusses the challenges in diagnosing non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia and emphasizes personalized treatment approaches, reporting no new clinical results.

This article reviews the evidence regarding the role of sex hormones in occult hyperadrenocorticism and reports no new findings, highlighting the unproven nature of their involvement.

This study concluded that antimullerian hormone levels are not generally effective for distinguishing late onset congenital adrenal hyperplasia from all hyperandrogenic polycystic ovary syndrome subtypes, except one specific subtype.

This study found that the wash test reliably measures hair shedding in children, with the number of shed hairs increasing with age and suggesting a potential early onset of androgenetic alopecia.

This letter discusses the use of serial trichoscopy versus a modified hair pull test for monitoring localized alopecia areata but reports no new clinical results.

This study documented a variety of skin lesions in COVID-19 patients, indicating that skin rashes might be an early or sole symptom of the disease.

In this animal study, serum biotin levels and clinical symptoms in gilts suggested that serum biotin could serve as a sensitive indicator of biotin deficiency, and a system to evaluate biotin status was proposed.

This commentary disputes Beckett et al.'s conclusion that boron exposure causes reversible alopecia, suggesting instead that alopecia areata is a more plausible cause based on patient histories and typical clinical features.

In this study, the use of Selencin, both in tablet and peptide lotion form, over two months showed significant improvements in reducing hair loss and restoring hair structure and volume in patients with diffuse alopecia, with effects persisting up to four months after treatment.

This study explains that congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency presents as a continuous phenotype and involves symptoms ranging from virilization to accelerated growth in children, with diagnosis relying on clinical, biochemical, and genetic evaluation.

Hair is culturally and economically valuable, and its weight is now used to measure the effectiveness of hair growth treatments.

In this study of 1,015 adults, 57.3% reported improved hair fall after using multivitamins for over three months, though side effects like abdominal pain and diarrhea were noted in 18.5%; only 37.4% used them under medical supervision.

This review examines scalp contact dermatitis, attributing most positive patch test reactions to hair dyes, hair cleansing products, and medicaments, but presents no new research findings.
