This review discusses the potential of platelet-rich plasma in regenerative medicine and aging-related diseases but notes that clinical efficacy remains unclear due to varying study results and preparation inconsistencies.

This review discusses the use of methotrexate for pediatric dermatoses and reports increased use in certain conditions like psoriasis, but mainly isolated case reports for others.

This study, involving patients with early rheumatoid arthritis, found that treatment regimens combining methotrexate and glucocorticoids, with or without initial high-dose methylprednisolone, showed higher remission rates over one year compared to methotrexate or leflunomide alone, and all regimens were generally well-tolerated.

This study found that using methotrexate with corticosteroids may support hair regrowth in severe alopecia areata, but adverse effects and relapses were common, suggesting more controlled trials are needed.

This study found that while both microneedling-assisted methotrexate and triamcinolone acetonide treatments led to improvements in recalcitrant alopecia areata, methotrexate-treated areas had significantly better outcomes in terms of SALT score reduction, patient satisfaction, and relapse rates, suggesting its superior short-term efficacy.

In this study, the combination of pulse intravenous corticosteroids and methotrexate was associated with positive hair regrowth in severe alopecia areata patients, with half achieving total regrowth.

This study observed that methotrexate combined with low- to moderate-dose oral corticosteroids may effectively treat severe alopecia areata, though long-term maintenance is often necessary due to relapse after tapering.

This study reports promising results for alopecia universalis treatment using a combination of systemic methotrexate and low-dose corticosteroids with topical minoxidil, though monitoring for side effects is necessary.

This study reported the development of a novel and reliable liquid chromatographic method to measure testosterone and epitestosterone in human urine, offering sensitive detection for doping control.

This study found that forming spheroids using silicone micro-wells improved the viability and neural differentiation potential of human adipose-derived stem cells after thawing.

This study found that the proposed LC-MS/MS method accurately quantified the drug content in split tablets of finasteride and terbinafine, revealing significant variability and suggesting that non-scored tablets should not be split.

This study introduced a new laser-only method called EKA for acne treatment, which is reported to be safe, painless, and heat-free, showing promising results for both acne and scar repair in initial sessions without combining with LED light.

This study reported that mice with more diverse gut microbiota showed higher hair levels of certain hormones and 1-AG compared to those with less diverse microbiota, though plasma differences were more complex and varied by stress and sex.

This article is a letter to the editor about high-dose pulsed corticosteroid therapy combined with methotrexate for severe childhood alopecia areata and provides no new clinical results.

This study validated a facial aging scale that predicts patients' age with good reliability and validity, potentially serving as a useful tool for assessing facial rejuvenation treatments and clinical research.

This review outlines the biological effects of various placental extracts, noting their reported antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory activities, but highlights that the relationship between these effects and the extracts' specific contents remains unclear.

This study found that line-field confocal optical coherence tomography effectively visualized key diagnostic features of classic lichen planopilaris in real time, suggesting its potential as a valuable diagnostic tool.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma may influence the proliferation of human hair dermal papilla cells by affecting gene expression related to the cell cycle.

This review discusses the development and advances in studying trichogenic dermal cells for hair follicle morphogenesis, summarizing methods, bioassays, and molecular markers, but reports no new research findings.
