research Clinico-biochemical characteristics of 229 Portuguese infertile women with polycystic ovary syndrome: clinical relevance and relationship with fertility treatment results
Certain health factors can worsen fertility treatment results in women with PCOS.
research A case of systemic mastocytosis - an ultrastructural and immunohistochemical study of the dermal mast cells in relation to activation of the epidermal melanin unit
Prednisone reduces organ mast cell infiltration but does not alter the abnormal appearance of mast cells in systemic mastocytosis.
research Hair loss is an important symptom of the menopause
Many women experience significant hair loss during menopause, and topical minoxidil is an effective treatment.
research Analysis of changes in microRNA expression profiles in response to the troxerutin-mediated antioxidant effect in human dermal papilla cells
