Some medications and supplements can cause serious side effects, including hair loss, heart rhythm problems, liver injury, and other health issues.

This pilot study found that using platelet rich fibrin in combination with dressings after revascularization surgery in patients with critical limb ischemia accelerated wound healing compared to dressings alone.

This study found differential expression of growth factors and cytokines in umbilical cord blood-derived platelet-rich plasma, with the highest concentrations observed in the B blood type, but also noted weak correlations with ABO blood groups, suggesting other influencing factors.

The conclusion is that future trials should report specific details about the PRP composition to better understand its effects on urologic conditions.

This study found that critically ill pulmonary patients with deficiency syndrome were at a higher risk of developing type 2 myocardial infarction than those with phlegm syndrome.

This article discusses arsenic trioxide as a treatment for refractory or relapsed acute promyelocytic leukemia, noting its effectiveness and manageable side effects.

This study reports that prostate volume, operation time, resected tissue weight, and smoking increase risks of blood loss and fluid absorption during PK-TURP, while finasteride treatment and surgeon experience may reduce these risks.

The researchers reported that VEGF increases vascular permeability in mesenteric microvessels of anaesthetized frogs through specific cellular pathways involving tyrosine autophosphorylation and PLC activation.

This book chapter reviews the subclasses and applications of platelet-rich plasma in tissue engineering and highlights the challenges in clinical translation without reporting new clinical results.

In this report, a 35-year-old patient with beta thalassemia experienced thyroid dysfunction following repeated blood transfusions, highlighting that such disorders are common among transfused thalassemia patients.

This study found that using a centrifugation speed of 1800 rpm for 10 minutes is optimal for preparing platelet-rich plasma with PRPBAG®, yielding an eightfold increase in platelet concentration.

This study found that while iron depletion through phlebotomies is safe for women with functional ovarian hyperandrogenism, it does not improve their cardio-metabolic profile and may reduce non-enzymatic antioxidant capacity.

This review discusses anti-angiogenic therapy for cancer, highlighting VEGF blockers' effectiveness but also their limitations, such as resistance and adverse effects; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that methanolic extracts from Capparis decidua fruits showed significant in vitro clot lysis activity, indicating potential as a safer anti-thrombotic alternative, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness in vivo.

This study reports that a new protocol using Angio PRP improved wound healing in mice by enhancing key healing processes and regulating inflammation, suggesting potential for clinical advancements.

This article discusses the FDA's decision not to approve 5α-reductase inhibitors for prostate cancer prevention, citing an increase in high-grade tumors but no mortality evidence, and reports no new results.

In this review, the authors summarized the potential therapeutic effects of metal ions in treating cardiovascular diseases, highlighting their roles in protecting cells, inducing angiogenesis, and adjusting ion channel functions, as well as discussing delivery strategies involving biomaterials.

This article discusses dermatologic adverse events associated with topoisomerase inhibitors and anthracyclines, such as alopecia and hand-foot syndrome, but reports no new clinical results.

In this case report, researchers observed that the monoclonal antibody bevacizumab may worsen hypothyroidism in patients, as seen in a 60-year-old woman with metastatic duodenal carcinoma. The authors suggest that thyroid function should be monitored when using VEGF inhibitor therapies due to potential adverse effects.

This article lists the clinically important interactions and skin reactions of several drugs and substances, including THA, FK506, tamoxifen, tamsulosin, tartrazine, tea tree oil, temazepam, and temozolomide, but provides no new clinical results.

This source reports that trastuzumab deruxtecan improves outcomes in HER2-positive and HER2-low metastatic breast cancer, emphasizing the need for careful adverse event monitoring, particularly for interstitial lung disease, and managing emetic risk to maximize benefits.

This study found that injecting xeno-free, three-dimensional cell masses from human adipose-derived stem cells improved blood perfusion and preserved limb function in mice without causing tumors or toxicity, suggesting potential for treating severe ischemic diseases.

This study found that using a new technique to apply platelet-rich plasma during surgery improved early outcomes in hips with avascular necrosis, including in patients previously treated for Covid-19.

This review highlights that iPSC-derived artificial platelets offer a promising alternative to platelet-rich plasma for regenerative medicine, with standardized manufacturing and reproducible pharmacological properties, addressing variability issues associated with donor-derived platelets and showing therapeutic potential in preclinical models of osteoarthritis.

This review analyzed observational studies on endogenous sex steroids and CVD risk, reporting mixed findings: lower testosterone and higher estradiol levels were associated with increased CVD risk, but significant literature gaps remain.

This study found that PRP combined with dalteparin and protamine microparticles may enhance hair growth by increasing hair thickness compared to PRP alone.

In this study, combining thalidomide with CHOP treatment showed a significantly higher effective rate in treating peripheral T-cell lymphoma compared to CHOP alone, while both regimens were associated with similar levels of adverse reactions.

This review discusses the historical development of platelet-rich fibrin from fibrin glue to platelet-enriched formulations and reports no new clinical results.

This commentary suggests that shifting from inconsistent autologous PRP to more standardized PRP-inspired formulations could improve treatment consistency for alopecia, emphasizing the need for careful characterization and clinical studies to validate safety and efficacy.

This case study reports a 44-year-old man with criminal sublethal thallium poisoning who demonstrated diminished contrast sensitivity, a tritan color vision defect, and a relative cecocentral scotoma leading to optic atrophy.
