research Journal Watch
A test for nail fungus was most accurate with PAS stain, low-dose spironolactone helped two-thirds of acne patients, metformin reduced symptoms of HIV-related fat distribution changes with some side effects, and skin examination with dermoscopy was better at detecting abnormal moles, while temporary tattoos can cause skin reactions.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common condition in women that can cause metabolic, reproductive, and psychological issues, and requires lifestyle changes and medication for management.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Cutaneous xanthomas with concurrent demodicosis and dermatophytosis in a cat
A cat with skin bumps and itching had high blood fats and skin infections, which improved with diet and medication changes.
research Women’s Health Care During the Perimenopause
The document concludes that low-dose oral contraceptives and hormonal therapies can manage perimenopause symptoms and reduce some health risks, but lifestyle changes and disease screening are also important.
research Feasibility of implementing current best clinical practice for people who are using anabolic androgenic steroids within a Swiss primary care practice: a quality assurance study
Integrating best practices for steroid users in Swiss primary care is feasible and beneficial, but doping laws need change.
research Adult‐onset hair loss in Chesapeake Bay retrievers: a clinical and histological study
Chesapeake Bay retrievers' hair loss is likely a breed-specific, hereditary condition linked to abnormal steroid levels and distinct skin changes.
research Expression of the RORα gene in Inner Mongolian cashmere goat hair follicles

research Comparison of MMP1 gene expression and collagen percentage in response to polydioxanone, poly-L-lactic acid and polycaprolactone thread implantation in ageing rat skin
PDO, PLLA, and PCL threads increase collagen in ageing skin but don't change MMP1 gene expression.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
