This study examined extracts from the heartwood of Kouyousan trees for anti-termite activity against Japanese termites. The researchers reported that cedrol showed strong anti-termite effects, with feeding deterrent activity at low concentrations and lethal effects at high concentrations, while isoabienol mainly contributed to feeding deterrence.

In this case study, a 15-year-old obese boy was diagnosed with acanthosis nigricans and hair casts in the axillae, with Wood's lamp and dermoscopic examination revealing specific features, yet fungal infection was ruled out through a negative KOH test.

This study evaluated an herbal emulgel formulation containing extracts from Wedelia chinensis and Cassytha filiformis for hair growth promotion in rats, finding that the combined formulation significantly increased hair growth compared to both individual extracts and the control group.

In this study, researchers investigated the effects of Aqueous Artocarpus heterophyllus seed extract on testosterone enanthate-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia in adult Wistar rats, using three different dosages to assess its potential as an alternative therapy. Results are not reported in this abstract.

This study highlights the phenotypic variability in 5 patients with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome carrying the c.436delC mutation, suggesting a broader range of clinical presentations than previously recognized.

This study suggests that the GPX-PDE1 and GPX-PDE2 genes in white lupin enhance root hair development and contribute to Pi limitation acclimation by facilitating glycerophosphodiester degradation.

This study introduces ALUDWIG, an automated tool for assessing female androgenic alopecia severity from smartphone images, which may offer a more consistent alternative to current scoring methods like the Ludwig scale.

The CWARTS tool is a promising method for assessing warts and could improve treatment and research.
