research Quantitative assessment of female pattern hair loss
Computer-aided imaging system helps measure balding area in female pattern hair loss.
research Recent therapeutic developments for acne
New acne treatments include combination creams, advanced retinoids, and light therapies, focusing on safety and patient adherence.
research Complémentarité et équilibre de l’apport alimentaire en protéines et en lipides
Vegetable protein lowers cholesterol and protein deficiency can cause health issues.
research Anti-Androgen Treatment of Hirsute Women: A Study on Stress Responses
The treatment reduced hair growth and testosterone in women with excess hair and had some effects on stress responses.
research Restoring neuropetide Y levels in the hypothalamus ameliorates premature aging phenotype in mice
Increasing neuropeptide Y in the brain can slow aging signs in mice.
research Remote photobiomodulation ameliorates behavioral and neuropathological outcomes in a rat model of repeated closed head injury
Remote photobiomodulation improves brain injury outcomes and behavior in rats.
research Influence of sex and functional status on the value of serum steroid profiling in discriminating adrenocortical carcinoma from adrenocortical adenoma
Serum steroid profiling, especially 11-deoxycortisol, helps distinguish between adrenocortical carcinoma and adenoma, considering sex and functional status.
research Efficacy and safety of 1565-nm non-ablative fractional laser versus long-pulsed 1064-nm Nd:YAG laser in treating enlarged facial pores
Both 1565-nm laser and 1064-nm laser safely and effectively reduce enlarged facial pores, with the 1064-nm laser causing fewer side effects.
research Diagnosis, Manifestations, Laboratory Investigations, and Prognosis in Pediatric and Adult Cushing’s Disease in a Large Center in China
Children and adults with Cushing's disease show different symptoms and males have more severe cases; surgery outcomes can be predicted by certain factors.
research How good is artificial intelligence (AI) at solving hairy problems? A review of AI applications in hair restoration and hair disorders
AI is effective in diagnosing and treating hair disorders, including detecting hair loss and scalp conditions with high accuracy, but it should supplement, not replace, doctor-patient interactions.
research Differential risk for COVID-19 in the first wave of the disease (February-April 2020) among migrants from several areas of the world living in Alcorcón (Spain): A population-based cohort study
Migrants from certain regions had a higher risk of COVID-19 than Spaniards.
research Hyperuricemia is associated with androgenetic alopecia in men: A cross‐sectional case‐control study
High uric acid levels link to male pattern baldness, especially in young men.
