research Comparing the frequency of isotretinoin-induced hair loss at <0.5-mg/kg/d versus ≥0.5-mg/kg/d dosing in acne patients: A systematic review
Higher doses of isotretinoin may lead to more hair loss.
research Finasteride: a steroid-unsparing drug?
Adequate steroid treatment needed to limit bone loss in PMR patients.
research Impact of androgen deprivation therapy on mortality of prostate cancer patients with COVID-19: a propensity score-based analysis
Androgen deprivation therapy doesn't lower the risk of death from COVID-19 in prostate cancer patients.
research Table_2.docx
Androgen suppression therapy (AST) doesn't significantly lower bladder cancer risk, but using finasteride, a type of AST, might decrease the risk. AST also lessens the chance of cancer coming back but doesn't really affect survival rates. More research is needed to understand AST's benefits for different bladder cancers.
research Experimental model of radiodermatitis in rabbits
A 30 Gy radiation dose effectively causes severe radiodermatitis in rabbits.
research Safety of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors in Patients With Differentiated Thyroid Cancer: Real-World Use of Lenvatinib and Sorafenib in Korea
