In this case-control study, individuals with alopecia areata showed significantly elevated levels of inflammatory markers IL-4, IFN-γ, and CRP, as well as reduced serum Folate and Ferritin, suggesting the condition's multifactorial pathophysiology involves immune activation, systemic inflammation, and micronutrient deficiencies.

This study observed that while the androgen receptor is expressed in 65.6% of breast cancer patients in Iraq, it is not significantly associated with conventional clinicopathological characteristics, suggesting limited prognostic value.

This study found that gray mongooses have more numerous and well-developed sebaceous glands compared to domestic cats, suggesting they may benefit from enhanced lipid-derived skin protection.

This pilot study observed that post-bariatric surgery, both zinc and iron deficiencies increased among Iraqi patients, underscoring the importance of lifelong nutritional monitoring and targeted supplementation to address these issues and prevent related complications.

In this animal study, finasteride was found to significantly lower cortisol and increase testosterone levels in female rats, indicating its broader impact on endocrine regulation by altering adrenal and gonadal hormones.

The study found that metformin alone most effectively reduced insulin resistance in Iraqi women with PCOS, but combining metformin with finasteride produced greater improvements in insulin sensitivity markers.

In this study conducted on Iraqi individuals with celiac disease not on a gluten-free diet, researchers observed elevated serum urea and creatinine levels, which may indicate an increased risk of renal dysfunction, alongside decreased magnesium, zinc, and vitamin C compared to healthy controls.

This study explored deep learning's potential in diagnosing scalp conditions like alopecia, psoriasis, and folliculitis, using a two-dimensional Convolutional Neural Network, achieving high accuracy and precision despite challenges of a small and uneven dataset.

This study suggests that L-Selectin and adiponectin may be useful markers for distinguishing between Metformin-treated and untreated PCOS patients.

This study found that in males with alopecia areata, adult patients had significantly higher levels of adrenaline and prolactin compared to healthy controls, suggesting these hormones may play roles in the condition's development.

In this study, researchers observed increased hormone levels such as testosterone and LH in both obese and non-obese women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, but concluded that the enzyme 3βHSD shows poor diagnostic value for PCOS compared to healthy women.

This study found that Syzygium aromaticum oil may improve the anagen/telogen ratio in testosterone-induced alopecia in mice, indicating potential as an alternative treatment to minoxidil for androgenic alopecia.

This study found that certain pyrazole derivatives may serve as effective 5α-reductase inhibitors with potential use in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia, based on molecular docking analyses.

In this study with diabetic rats, the researchers found that combining Amoxicillin/Clavulanate with metformin may enhance the glucose-lowering effects of metformin, without affecting cholesterol, triglycerides, or certain electrolytes.

This article reviews the genetic diversity, clinical symptoms, diagnosis, and prevention strategies of feline calicivirus in domestic cats, but reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the importance of vaccination and proper hygiene.

This study found that higher Dietary Inflammatory Index scores were significantly associated with an increase in both the occurrence and severity of alopecia areata.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata had significantly higher serum T3 and cortisol levels compared to healthy controls, although both remained within normal ranges, highlighting potential hormonal involvement in the condition. However, no significant differences were observed in T4 and TSH levels.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome had significantly higher serum lactate dehydrogenase levels and lower levels of cortisol, dopamine, zinc, and vitamin D3 compared to healthy controls.

This study found that variations in the genes PDCD4, miR-21, and miR-449b may significantly influence breast cancer progression, with higher PDCD4 serum levels linked to increased breastfeeding.

The study reported that patients with alopecia areata had significantly higher serum levels of IL-17A and IL-2 compared to healthy controls, suggesting these interleukins may play an important role in the disease, though they did not correlate with its severity or duration.

In this study, zinc oxide nanoparticles were synthesized using a sustainable method from the Lepidium sativum L. plant, and incorporating these nanoparticles into Sunblock Lotion significantly increased its sun protection factor.

This study found that in Kirkuk City, prescription and over-the-counter omega-3 supplements were widely used, often without clear distinction by healthcare providers and consumers regarding their appropriate use.
