This study found that finasteride does not increase the risk of high-grade prostate cancer but instead improves the prostate-specific antigen test's sensitivity to detect such cancers.

Isotretinoin can raise CPK levels, so patients need monitoring, especially before surgery.

In this study, researchers observed that patients with Alopecia Areata had significantly lower serum zinc and higher copper levels compared to healthy controls, indicating a disrupted zinc-copper balance that may contribute to the disease's pathogenesis.

This study found that women with telogen effluvium had significantly lower serum ferritin levels compared to healthy controls, suggesting an association between iron deficiency and this form of hair loss.

In this study, researchers found that patients undergoing one-anastomosis gastric bypass experienced a greater incidence of low serum zinc levels and related symptoms, such as hair loss and delayed wound healing, compared to those undergoing sleeve gastrectomy.

This study found that low serum ferritin levels were significantly associated with non-scarring alopecia in women from Punjab, Pakistan, suggesting that assessing ferritin could help identify iron deficiency as a modifiable factor in hair loss.

This study found that breast cancer treatment with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and/or hormonal therapy led to a significant increase in blood urea and creatinine levels, indicating nephrotoxicity among non-diabetic, non-cardiac post-menopausal patients with infiltrating ductal carcinoma.

This study suggests that foods and drugs containing sulfhydryl groups may induce or worsen pemphigus vulgaris.

In this case report, a 20-year-old woman exhibited progressive asymptomatic hair loss with a pattern inconsistent with alopecia areata or female pattern hair loss, showing areas of both extending and improving hair loss.

In this research on cinnamon and virgin coconut oil hair tonics, F2 and F3 demonstrated stable physical properties and mild irritation potential, while formula 1 remained non-irritating but less stable regarding pH and viscosity.

This study found that lower GPX4 mRNA levels in polymorphonuclear neutrophils of systemic lupus erythematosus patients were negatively associated with disease activity and serological markers, suggesting a diagnostic value for GPX4 mRNA.

In this study, researchers found that serum dihydrotestosterone levels were significantly lower in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes compared to healthy controls, with 90% of diabetics displaying subnormal levels.

In this study, patients with alopecia areata had significantly lower serum zinc levels compared to healthy controls, with an inverse relationship between zinc levels and disease severity.

In this study, 25% of CCHCR1-deficient mice exposed to stress developed hair loss similar to human alopecia areata, suggesting CCHCR1 is a susceptibility gene for the disease.

This study found that redhaired individuals consistently had higher calcidiol levels compared to non-redhaired subjects, suggesting a physiological adaptation for vitamin D synthesis in low UV-B conditions.

This study observed that Egyptian patients with discoid lupus erythematosus have significantly lower serum vitamin D3 and antioxidant levels compared to healthy controls, suggesting potential benefits of vitamin D3 and antioxidant supplementation.

This study found that nonobese women with idiopathic hirsutism had higher fibrinogen levels and lower nitrite/nitrate concentrations compared to controls, similar to those with PCOS.

This study found that PRP with high estrogen levels increased hair density more effectively and earlier than autologous PRP in male patients with androgenic alopecia.

This study examined serum PSA levels in women with androgenetic alopecia to evaluate their potential as a marker for androgen effects on target organs.

This study observed that smokers and alcohol consumers with androgenetic alopecia had significantly lower serum levels of antioxidant vitamins, and these habits may trigger earlier onset of alopecia in susceptible individuals.

This study found that Mueller-Hinton Agar performed better than Dermasel Agar for antifungal susceptibility testing of feline dermatophytes, providing reliable susceptibility data for effective antifungal therapy.

This manuscript describes a proposed ‘trichoscopy-assisted hair pull test’ that enhances the diagnosis of hair loss conditions by allowing immediate examination of proximal hair shafts and roots in patients with a positive hair pull test.

This study found that a green tea extract gel was stable across various temperatures, did not cause eye irritation, and significantly increased eyelash growth compared to a placebo after two months of use in human volunteers.

Finasteride can cause gum swelling and bleeding, but stopping the drug helps recovery.

This study found that metformin, insulin, and ACE inhibitors were associated with lower PSA levels, but statins did not decrease PSA, whereas low dose finasteride (1 mg) reduced PSA levels similarly to the higher 5 mg dose.

This study found high levels of toxic heavy metals in water sources of mining communities in Abakaliki, Nigeria, posing potential health risks including Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases.

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

This study found that Synechococcus elongatus PCC 11801 responded to increased CO2 concentrations by enhancing photosynthesis and carbon fixation while reducing other metabolic pathways, suggesting its potential for efficient CO2 capture.

This study found that women with early-onset androgenetic alopecia had higher aldosterone levels and blood pressure, suggesting a possible link to the increased prevalence of hypertension in this group.

This study found that women experiencing diffuse hair loss had significantly lower levels of plasma sex-hormone binding globulin compared to controls, while their testosterone levels remained normal.
