In this study, researchers found that androgen receptor gene polymorphism is associated with higher androgenetic alopecia grades and PSA levels in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia, but not with prostate cancer.

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

This study found that the Spanish version of the Hair Specific Skindex 29 (HSS29) is a reliable and valid tool for assessing the quality of life impact of female androgenetic alopecia.

This study developed a high-resolution phototrichogram system that can automatically and accurately assess hair growth metrics in cosmetic trials, achieving over 90% correlation with manual measurements.

This study observed that acanthosis nigricans is highly prevalent in Latin American youths, especially at the knuckles, and may indicate early insulin resistance even in those with a normal BMI.

This study found that newborn hair caffeine content reflects maternal caffeine intake during the third trimester, providing a potential method for assessing fetal caffeine exposure.

In this study of Indian patients with pattern hair loss, 40.8% showed low sulfotransferase enzyme activity in hair follicles, with a higher prevalence of low activity in men compared to women.

This study observed that most women with PCOS in the United States use adaptive coping strategies, while those with higher psychological severity may resort to maladaptive coping methods.

This study on Alzheimer's patients found that chronic sodium selenate treatment (up to 23 months) was safe and well-tolerated, with most adverse events being mild, and suggested potential slowing of cognitive decline, though confirmation requires further controlled studies.

This study found that using age-specific AMH cut-off levels can help better identify PCOS patients across different age groups from 20 to 40 years.

This report documented a case of thrombocytopenia and leukopenia linked to the long-term use of itraconazole in a patient with acute myelogenous leukemia.

In this study, intradermal injections of 0.5% minoxidil significantly improved hair growth and volume in women with female androgenetic alopecia compared to a placebo, with a good safety profile reported.

This study found that stress plays a significant role in altering phenotypic features and body composition among PCOS patients, potentially worsening due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in this study had significantly higher anxiety and depression scores compared to controls, but showed no significant differences in temperament and character traits.

This study found that a vegetarian diet preference, atopy history, and paternal family history were associated with a higher likelihood of premature hair graying in young adults.

This study found that dutasteride treatment in pregnant mares significantly increased progesterone concentrations but did not alter gestational length or neonatal outcomes.

This study reported that both phlebotomy and oral contraceptive pills with cyproterone acetate effectively improved insulin resistance and androgenic profiles in women with PCOS, but OCs had more impact on regularizing menstrual cycles.

This study demonstrated that genetic markers can predict human ear morphology with moderate to good accuracy, potentially aiding forensic identification in crime scene investigations where traditional DNA matches are unavailable.

This study found that metformin treatment improved clinical outcomes in Taiwanese women with polycystic ovary syndrome, notably in overweight and insulin-resistant patients.

This study found that relatives of women with symptoms of oligo-amenorrhoea and hirsutism experienced higher rates of hirsutism, menstrual disorders, infertility, childlessness, diabetes, and hypertension compared to relatives of symptomless women.

This study found that acanthosis nigricans in the knuckles correlates with higher insulin and HOMA-IR values, potentially serving as an early, accessible marker for insulin resistance even without excess weight.

This study suggests obstructive sleep apnea may increase the risk of male-pattern baldness in men with a family history of hair loss, and links low serum transferrin saturation levels to both conditions.

This study optimized a screening assay to identify molecules that inhibit or enhance TRPM5 ion channel activity, which may have implications for treating dysfunctions linked to cardiac arrhythmias and diabetes.

DNA can predict physical traits like eye and hair color accurately, especially in Europeans, but predicting other traits and in diverse populations needs more research.

In a study involving adults with mild to moderate dandruff, researchers observed that post-hair wash interventions significantly reduced dandruff as measured by three assessment methods, showing substantial reliability and correlation, which supports their use in clinical settings for evaluating scalp dandruff treatments.

This study found that nursing women in the West Bank of Palestine who lived in cities and consumed energy beverages had higher blood zinc levels.

This study suggests that combining baricitinib with narrowband UV-B therapy is an effective and well-tolerated approach for treating active nonsegmental vitiligo.

In this study, researchers examined chronic hepatitis B patients and found that those undergoing interferon therapy reported higher quality of life than those on non-antiviral or nucleoside/nucleotide analogue treatments, despite potential side effects.

In this study on C57BL/6 mice, researchers found that cadmium chloride exposure led to metabolic disruption, accelerated skin aging, and impaired hair regeneration, with more severe effects observed at higher doses.
