This study optimized conditions for extracting saponins from Eclipta prostrata, achieving maximum yield with specific ethanol concentration, time, temperature, and liquid/solid ratio.

This study confirmed that a sulfotransferase enzyme test can effectively rule out 95.9% of nonresponders to 5% topical minoxidil for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This guideline provides recommendations for prescribing systemic testosterone to women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder, emphasizing safe dosing, monitoring, and the need for informed consent despite regulatory challenges.

Testosterone therapy aims to treat hormone deficiencies and various conditions safely and effectively, but requires careful patient monitoring due to potential side effects.

This study found that TGPC plus CGT was more effective than CGT alone in reducing alopecia areata severity in children over 12 months, with similar safety profiles.

This case report describes total alopecia in a 53-year-old woman after 13 months of tamoxifen treatment for breast cancer, with normal hair distribution maintained elsewhere.

In this study, a plasma-fluorescent corticoid test effectively differentiated patients with adrenal insufficiency from those with normal adrenal function based on their response to corticotropin.

Testosterone may both worsen and protect against COVID-19 effects in men.

This study found that testosterone enhances insulin secretion in human pancreatic islets by being converted into DHT and E2, processes that are necessary for this effect.

This review summarizes current understanding and genetic insights into androgenetic alopecia, female pattern hair loss, and alopecia areata, noting the potential future role of molecular diagnostics, but it reports no new clinical results.

Finasteride increases hair growth, prolongs hair cycle, and lowers dihydrotestosterone levels.

This study found that the non-steroidal antiandrogen RU58841 increased hair growth rates and promoted hair cycle initiation in balding human scalp grafts on testosterone-conditioned nude mice, indicating a positive effect on hair growth.

This study developed a DPC cell line by introducing mutant CDK4, Cyclin D1, and TERT, making it a promising tool to study downstream signaling pathways activated by testosterone in androgenetic alopecia.

This study measured plasma testosterone glucosiduronate levels and found no overlap in those with hyperandrogenism compared to normal females, despite normal testosterone and dihydrotestosterone levels in half of the affected patients.

In this review and meta-analysis, the authors concluded that 5α-reductase inhibitor therapy is not consistently associated with significant increases in serum testosterone levels in men.

This study optimized and validated a dissolution test method for immediate-release finasteride capsules, highlighting the need for an official standard due to variability in commercial products.

This study found that a regimen combining cyproterone acetate and testosterone buciclate induced reversible azoospermia in bonnet monkeys, highlighting its potential as an effective male contraceptive.

This study presents a new survey instrument that was cognitively tested for understanding menstrual cycle characteristics and androgen excess, including hirsutism, alopecia, and acne.

This review discusses the therapeutic and pharmacological potential of total glucosides of paeony in dermatological treatment and notes the need for more rigorous scientific studies.

This study concluded that the topical gel VB1953 reduced inflammatory and non-inflammatory acne lesions and resistant bacteria in patients with clindamycin-resistant acne, showing promise as an effective treatment.

This review discusses the potential of using human hair proteomics for non-invasive diagnostic and forensic applications but reports no new results; the authors highlight areas needing further research.

Hair testing is a reliable method for detecting workplace drug use when done with proper sample preparation and confirmation.

This study examined the most common chemotherapy side effects among patients with prostate, bladder, and testicular cancer, noting hair loss, fatigue, and decreased appetite as frequent symptoms.

This study reported that testosterone replacement therapy was not linked to worse COVID-19 outcomes in men, though the data showed high hospitalization and fatality rates that suggest otherwise.

This study found that administering testosterone increased the expression of sexual behavior and elevated serum testosterone and DHT levels in female capuchin monkeys, hinting at potential insights into testosterone use and its risks in humans.

This study found that administering an alcoholic extract of Mentha spicata leaves significantly reduced testosterone levels and aggressive behavior in female rats with elevated testosterone, suggesting its potential protective role against such symptoms.

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 hair testosterone concentrations show some consistency over time, but factors like hair washing and individual growth rates influence these levels, suggesting the need for careful sampling and analysis adjustments.

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 described clinical manifestations such as alopecia and hyperpigmentation in male dogs with hypoandrogenism, suggesting a need for further research on these endocrinopathies in animals.
