This review discusses the 2023 International Guideline for PCOS assessment and management, highlighting updated evidence-based recommendations and practice points aimed at improving care and health outcomes, but notes that research quality remains generally low to moderate.

This study comparatively evaluated different extraction techniques for Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi leaf extracts and found that conventional extraction with ethanol yielded the highest antioxidant activity and beneficial effects on skin cell viability, supporting its potential use in sustainable cosmeceutical formulations targeting skin aging.

This study reports the development of a microemulsion using Momordica charantia extract, which demonstrated strong antioxidant and 5α-reductase inhibitory activity, potentially aiding hair loss management. The microemulsion was stable over 12 weeks, suggesting its future potential for cosmetic or pharmacological applications.

In this randomized controlled trial, researchers found that a 2.5 mg daily dose of oral minoxidil was more effective than a 1 mg dose in improving hair growth parameters in patients with androgenetic alopecia over three months, with both doses being well tolerated.

This study reported that 5% topical minoxidil lotion may be beneficial for enhancing hair regrowth in patients with telogen effluvium, although its effectiveness is limited by the self-healing nature of the condition and the small sample size.

This study suggests that Equisetum debile extracts, particularly the ethyl acetate fraction, may offer natural cosmeceutical benefits for treating hyperpigmentation, delaying skin aging, and remediating hair loss due to androgenic alopecia.

This study reported that fermented grapeseed oil may enhance hair permeability and improve strength and color retention in chemically treated hair compared to regular grapeseed or silicone oils.

This review discusses the composition, preparation, and applications of autologous platelet and extracellular vesicle-rich plasma, highlighting its potential benefits and the need for further research, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that Silybum marianum flower extract may promote hair growth and reduce hair loss by increasing proliferation and VEGF production in dermal papilla cells and suppressing cell senescence.

This review compiles evidence indicating that rosemary essential oil may enhance cognitive function, sleep quality, mood, and pain management in aromatherapy; however, it also notes potential allergic reactions, emphasizing caution in its use.

This study explored the potential of human hair keratin as a filtration material, finding that it may effectively absorb the pollutants diclofenac and perfluorobutanesulfonate. The researchers reported significant binding affinities through molecular simulations, supporting further investigation into keratin's use for water purification.

This study observed that men who conform more strongly to traditional masculinity norms are likelier to undergo cosmetic surgery as a way to assert power, success, dominance, and sexual success.

This research reported that liposomal systems made from pig-derived skin lipids enhanced finasteride delivery to hair follicles for treating androgenetic alopecia, showing improved drug deposition, hair length, and growth compared to conventional finasteride forms in vitro.

This research outlines the significant morbidity and economic impact of dermatophytosis, a contagious fungal disease affecting skin, hair, and nails, with heightened severity in immune-compromised individuals and poor environmental conditions.

This study concluded that while home-based intense pulsed light, laser diodes, radiofrequency, and light-emitting diode devices are recommended for certain skin conditions, ultraviolet B phototherapy for psoriasis showed mixed evidence compared to clinic treatments.

This article reviews global insights on how COVID-19 has transformed the practice of dermatology, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study characterized the hair follicle patterns of Indian bison, Black buck, and Nilgai, providing valuable data to help identify these endangered species' skins, commonly targeted by poachers.

This guideline summary, endorsed by six Spanish pediatric societies, outlines consensus recommendations for managing childhood asthma, emphasizing diagnosis, maintenance treatment with low-dose inhaled corticosteroids, and patient education for effective control.

This study found that grape leaves, especially from the 'Razaki' white cultivar, are rich in phenolic compounds and flavonols, suggesting potential use in developing functional products.

This study found that dual 5α-reductase inhibition in rats led to decreased sperm motility and altered morphology, resulting in subfertility.

This study found that stem cells can temporarily act as non-professional phagocytes during hair cycle regeneration by clearing apoptotic cells through a process requiring local lipids and retinoids for activation, providing insights into their dual role in maintaining tissue integrity.

In this study, researchers developed a wearable red and blue LED patch and a sprayable fibrin gel to treat infected wounds at home, demonstrating effective infection control and enhanced wound healing in diabetic mice and minipigs.

This study demonstrates that FMOD deficiency in mice alters TGF-β ligand and receptor expression during wound healing stages, leading to delayed wound closure and increased scar size.

In this study, Polygonum multiflorum Radix promoted hair growth in mice, with oral administration being more effective, likely through FGF-7, while topical application favored SHH-related mechanisms.

Pumpkin seeds may help expel parasites, but findings are retracted.

This study found that AI using YOLOv11 architecture can reliably differentiate between hyaluronic acid and silicone oil cosmetic fillers on ultrasound, achieving high accuracy, whereas identifying calcium hydroxyapatite and polymethylmethacrylate remains less consistent, requiring further improvements.

High-resolution imaging is crucial for diagnosing and planning treatments in clinical anatomy and aging.

This study found that penetration enhancer-containing vesicles significantly improved minoxidil delivery to the skin compared to traditional liposomes and penetration enhancer-containing ethanolic solutions, with deformability linked to enhanced deposition.

This review examines recent advancements in analytical techniques used to quantify dutasteride, a medication for enlarged prostate, in various biological samples and its commercial forms, emphasizing methods such as HPTLC, GC-MS, and HPLC.

In this study, fenugreek seed extract showed significant androgenic and spermatogenic effects in male rats, likely through inhibiting testosterone metabolism, without impacting cardiovascular health.
