This review discusses the clinical use of anti-androgen medications and highlights emerging evidence supporting plant-derived anti-androgens like spearmint tea for managing PCOS, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the influence of menopausal status on hair parameters in women without alopecia, finding significant differences in hair growth rate, percentage anagen, and hair diameter distributions, particularly in the frontal scalp.

This study found that serum vaspin levels were elevated in women with polycystic ovary syndrome compared to controls, but treatment with metformin or weight loss did not significantly change these levels.

This study found that the TrichoScan method for evaluating hair loss showed excellent correlation with manual marking and provided more consistent, reproducible results with less variability and operator error.

This study reported that women with PCOS had higher levels of certain hormones and lower SHBG levels compared to non-PCOS women with similar symptoms, highlighting a less favorable endocrine profile in PCOS cases.

Testosterone causes hair loss in AGA mice, which are good for testing baldness treatments, and both minoxidil and cyproterone acetate can prevent this hair loss.

This review summarizes recent discoveries about how tissue-resident stem cells interact with their environments during normal conditions and after injury, without reporting new results.

In this study, photodynamic therapy significantly reduced inflammatory acne lesions and sebum secretion, possibly by inducing apoptosis in sebaceous glands and down-regulating TLR-2 and TLR-4 expression.

This article highlights adverse skin reactions due to injectable therapies for MS, noting that while generally mild, some cases can progress to serious lesions requiring medical intervention.

This study observed that dietary intake of glucoraphanin during juvenile and adolescent stages prevented cognitive deficits and abnormal gene expressions in the brain of adult offspring exposed to maternal immune activation, potentially implicating centrosome-related genes in the development of psychosis.

This review outlines the main findings from clinical trials on teriflunomide's efficacy and safety for relapsing multiple sclerosis, noting clinical considerations and exploring its mechanisms based on various studies.

This review found evidence supporting the effectiveness and safety of topical minoxidil for treating female pattern hair loss, though many included studies were at high risk of bias.

This study found that children with intracranial injuries had significantly lower odds of achieving satisfactory early academic performance compared to those without head injuries.

This review discusses the pharmacological properties and physiological regulation of neuroactive steroids, focusing on their varied responses to stress and ethanol in rats, mice, and humans, but it reports no new findings.

This workshop review discusses the dual role of cellular senescence in cancer, highlighting both its anticancer effects and pro-tumorigenic potential, while reporting no new research results.

In this study, DHT was associated with increased production of proinflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α in cultured sebocytes, suggesting a role in acne pathophysiology beyond sebum production.

This study found that both finasteride and flutamide effectively reduced hirsutism, with flutamide being more effective than finasteride in decreasing hirsutism scores and hair diameter over 12 months.

This retrospective study found that a hairline-lowering technique effectively advanced the female hairline by an average of 2.1 cm with high patient satisfaction and minimal complications over 20 years.

This review discusses the mechanisms by which isotretinoin and hormonal therapy treat acne through their effects on sebaceous glands, reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, Meis1 was found to regulate epidermal homeostasis and act as a proto-oncogenic factor in skin tissues, with differences in expression patterns between normal and tumor cells.

This study found that photodynamic therapy using 5-aminolevulinic acid or methyl aminolevulinate is a safe and effective treatment for acne vulgaris, particularly with 30 to 60 minutes of contact time and three treatments for significant long-term improvement.

This study found that an intermittent low-dose regimen of finasteride (2.5 mg every 3 days) effectively reduced hirsutism scores in women with idiopathic hirsutism or polycystic ovary syndrome, with fewer side effects than continuous daily administration.

This study found that ancient and modern Chinese goats share close genetic ties, originating from the Fertile Crescent, with genetic divergence influenced by China's climatic divisions.

This review highlights similarities in the development of thymus and skin epidermis, reporting no new results; the authors emphasize shared molecular mechanisms despite different embryonic origins.

This study found that older men with vertex balding had lower levels of IGFBP-3 and higher levels of IGF-1 in their plasma.

This article reviews Cronkhite-Canada syndrome as a distinct condition from Peutz-Jeghers syndrome and familial polyposis, with cases showing gastrointestinal polyposis, skin, hair, nail abnormalities, and hypoproteinemia.

This study found that in mice lacking EGFR, elevated Wnt signaling disrupts hair follicle development by affecting cell proliferation and differentiation, revealing a critical role for EGFR in regulating these processes.

This study found that allogeneic platelet gel significantly improved healing in non-healing chronic lower leg ulcers compared to hydrogel treatment.

This study demonstrated that a bio-3D printed artificial skin scaffold, seeded with adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells, showed promising wound healing properties by enhancing cell recruitment, migration, and gene expression related to tissue regeneration.

This study found that chemotherapy in female breast cancer patients caused significant early hair loss, which began to recover three months after completion, whereas tamoxifen did not affect hair growth.
