research Clinical Evaluation of Women Presenting with Low Libido and Determination of Whether Androgen Therapy Might Be Appropriate
Androgen therapy might help some women with low libido, but it has risks and should be used carefully.
research Prevalance, clinical characteristics, possible etiological and diagnostic approach in dogs with acral lick dermatitis
The study concluded that Acral lick dermatitis is most common in young male Labrador retrievers, often caused by psychological factors, and leads to skin inflammation and stress-related blood changes.
research Dupilumab: A Review of Present Indications and Off-Label Uses
Dupilumab is being tested for many new skin, respiratory, and gastrointestinal conditions.
research Omenn syndrome in a 10-month-old male with athymia and VACTERL association
A 10-month-old boy with a rare combination of genetic conditions has severe immune deficiency and treatment challenges.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: A Chronic or Pubertal Onset Disease Retarded by Blood Donation
Androgenetic alopecia is a long-term, immune-related disorder that starts during puberty due to androgen secretion, and it might be improved with iron tablets, platelet transfusion, and anti-inflammation therapy.
research Testosterone in COVID-19: An Adversary Bane or Comrade Boon
Testosterone's effects on COVID-19 are unclear and need more research.
research Alopecia - the search for novel agents continues
Many potential alopecia treatments need more testing to confirm they promote acceptable hair growth with minimal side effects.
research 1. Medical Practice; Therapy; Adverse Reactions
Blood pressure drugs can cause skin lupus, but it improves after stopping the drug. The glycoprotein D vaccine works against genital herpes in some women, and the HPV-16 vaccine reduces HPV-16 infection and related diseases. More frequent light therapy clears psoriasis faster. A cream called imiquimod effectively treats a type of skin cancer. Iron supplements don't necessarily help with chronic hair loss in women.
research 9. Immunology
Blood pressure drugs can cause skin lupus, early treatment is key for baby herpes and diabetic foot ulcers, a certain vaccine works against genital herpes and HPV in women, more frequent light therapy helps psoriasis, smoking and drinking can worsen psoriasis, a cream clears up a type of skin cancer, and low iron levels don't cause chronic hair loss.
research Diffuse alopecia areata is associated with intense inflammatory infiltration and CD8+ T cells in hair loss regions and an increase in serum IgE level
Diffuse alopecia areata involves more inflammation and higher allergy-related antibodies than patchy types.
research LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Careful management of blood thinners is crucial for lupus patients with APS.
research Ex Vivo Treatment with Allogenic Mesenchymal Stem Cells of a Healthy Donor on Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells of Patients with Severe Alopecia Areata: Targeting Dysregulated T Cells and the Acquisition of Immunotolerance
Using healthy donor stem cells can potentially calm overactive immune cells and reduce inflammation in severe hair loss patients, offering a possible treatment method.
research 4. Bullous/Mucous Membrane
High blood pressure drugs often cause skin lupus, stopping the drug usually helps. A vaccine helps prevent genital herpes and HPV-16. More frequent light therapy clears psoriasis faster. No link was found between low iron and chronic hair loss.
research DHT deficiency perturbs the integrity of the rat seminiferous epithelium by disrupting tight and adherens junctions
DHT deficiency can disrupt cell connections in rat testes, possibly affecting fertility.
research Changes in the Hydrophobic Proteins in Response to Biotin Administration in Serum of Infant Patients with Alopecia as Assessed by the Protein Micro-Sequencing Method
Biotin helps regulate proteins in the blood, which may explain its role in hair growth.
research The injectable contraceptives depot medroxyprogesterone acetate and norethisterone enanthate substantially and differentially decrease testosterone and sex hormone binding globulin levels: A secondary study from the WHICH randomized clinical trial
Both injectable contraceptives lower testosterone and SHBG levels, with NET-EN having a greater effect than DMPA-IM.
research In vitro hair follicle growth model for drug testing
Researchers developed a new method to test hair growth drugs and found that adult cells are best for hair growth, but the method needs improvement as it didn't create mature hair follicles.
research Diffuse hair loss associated with hyperprolactinaemia: report of three cases
High levels of prolactin in the blood can be linked to widespread hair loss.
research Higher percentage of CD34 + stem cells and elevated efficacy in androgenetic alopecia treatment observed in CGF prepared from 640 nm laser‐pretreated blood: A preliminary study
Laser-pretreated blood for hair loss treatment was more effective and increased stem cells.
research Fresh Umbilical Cord Blood—A Source of Multipotent Stem Cells, Collection, Banking, Cryopreservation, and Ethical Concerns
Umbilical cord blood is a valuable source of stem cells for medical treatments, but its use is less common than other transplants, and there are ethical issues to consider.
research Musculoskeletal and body composition response to high-dose testosterone with finasteride after chronic incomplete spinal cord injury—a randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled pilot study
Testosterone with finasteride improved muscle and bone health in men with spinal cord injury.
research A Clinician's approach to the investigation of otitis externa
The document concludes that a thorough examination and various tests are crucial for diagnosing and treating ear inflammation in pets.
research A Porcine Model for the Development and Testing of Preoperative Skin Preparations
