This case report describes a 72-year-old woman with a steroid cell tumor of the ovary, highlighting the critical role of imaging, biochemical evaluation, and pathology in diagnosing and managing hormonally active ovarian tumors that cause virilization in postmenopausal women.

This review discusses the effects of vacuum massage on skin structures and concludes that there is insufficient evidence for its efficacy in treating burn scars, suggesting more research is needed on its potential benefits and mechanisms.

Poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) monoliths can be made using heat separation for various uses.

In this study, Hedgehog signaling in dermal papilla fibroblasts was found to accelerate hair growth and induce follicle multiplication in mice via the SCUBE3/TGF-β pathway, with some effects observed in human scalp hair follicles.

In this study, Msx2-deficient mice showed progressive hair loss due to shortened anagen phase and prolonged catagen and telogen phases, resulting in cyclic alopecia with structurally abnormal hair shafts.

This animal study found that testosterone treatment increased vas deferens fluid secretion rate in rats, with potential implications for male fertility through the upregulation of AQP-1, 2, and 9 proteins.

This study identified several patient-specific factors that can predict both the likelihood of undergoing and failing a post-TURP void trial, aiding in the selection of candidates for immediate assessment.

This article discusses the development and clinical progress of PROTAC technology, particularly focusing on the New Drug Application for vepdegestrant, an estrogen receptor-targeting PROTAC, marking significant advancements in targeted protein degradation therapies.

This study describes a double embedding technique for preparing tangential sections of hair and wool fibers, recommending specific staining methods for quantitative analysis and demonstrating wool fiber cortical fractions.

This review highlights recent advancements in FUE hair transplantation techniques and technologies, noting significant improvements in reducing follicle damage and increasing procedure speed, while emphasizing the need for surgeons to choose suitable devices for each patient's specific needs.

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 discusses the causes and diagnosis of telogen effluvium, highlighting traction alopecia as a useful model for studying hair loss, but reports no new clinical results.

This review explores how metabolic and psychological factors contribute to binge eating disorder in women with PCOS and highlights the need for non-punitive, comprehensive management strategies.

This study revealed that Vav2 and Vav3 play roles in regulating hair follicle bulge stem cells in normal conditions and cancer stem cell activation and remodeling in mice.

In this study, researchers developed an innovative training model using oranges to practice designing the scalp's parietal whorl for hair transplantation. They reported that a density of 40-50 follicular units per cm² achieved better results, aiding surgeons in improving their technique.

This case report details a postmenopausal woman with increased libido, hirsutism, and spontaneous orgasms, noting elevated testosterone levels and enlarged ovaries.

This study found that fibroblast behavior switching between proliferation and ECM deposition is vital for dermal architecture, where cell migration is primarily important for tissue repair during wound healing.

This study examined developing hair cortex with electron microscopy and found that keratin fibrils form between specific regions in hair follicles and aggregate into twisted cables.

This study indicates that the OVOL1-OVOL2 axis may play a significant role in hair follicle differentiation and growth, potentially serving as therapeutic targets for hair disorders like alopecia and in the tumorigenesis of pilomatricoma.

The study demonstrated that bulge stem cells from rat vibrissa follicles respond to adult dermal papilla signals, inducing hair bulb formation and regenerating hair structures in vivo.

This study observed that multiphoton excitation microscopy revealed changes in vascular structure and hair papillae in mice subcutaneous tissue following cyclophosphamide treatment for chemotherapy-induced alopecia.

Human growth factor 20 can boost mouse whisker growth.

This study examined the unique structural features of sinus hair follicles in the shrew Sorex unguiculatus, which suggest a specialization for vibration sensing.

This study found that vibration assisted analgesia reduced pain during intralesional corticosteroid therapy for hair loss, enabling treatment in a broader range of patients, including those with needle phobia.

This study introduced a new computational method for simulating vibrational frequencies, finding that the multi-molecular fragment model showed the best agreement with experimental data for Finasteride, Lamivudine, and Repaglinide, outperforming traditional models in accuracy.

This study reports on eight previously unpublished cases of Bohring-Opitz syndrome with ASXL1 mutations, suggesting the importance of screening for Wilms tumors in these patients.

This study provides a comprehensive review of trichotillomania, focusing on its clinical symptoms, etiology, diagnostics, and treatment methods, while also addressing serious complications like trichobezoars and Rapunzel Syndrome.

This study reported that polarized dermoscopy was better for visualizing vascular patterns, scaling, and reticular pigmentation, while nonpolarized mode better documented features like black dots and tapered hair in various hair and scalp conditions.

This study found that the estrous cycle influences the effect of the δ-GABAAR agonist THIP in reducing binge drinking behavior in female mice, with receptor expression elevated during diestrus.
