research ACNE
Acne significantly affects mental health and quality of life, with research suggesting hormonal and genetic factors in its development and emphasizing early treatment to prevent scarring.
research Divergent neuroactive steroid responses to stress and ethanol in rat and mouse strains: relevance for human studies
Stress and alcohol affect brain chemicals differently in rats, mice, and humans, influenced by genetic differences.
research Current evaluation of amenorrhea
Amenorrhea is when a woman doesn't have periods, with primary amenorrhea starting by age 15 or within five years of breast development, and secondary amenorrhea when periods stop for three months. It affects 3-4% of women not pregnant, breastfeeding, or in menopause, mainly due to polycystic ovary syndrome, hypothalamic amenorrhea, hyperprolactinemia, and ovarian failure.
research Current evaluation of amenorrhea
Amenorrhea, or the absence of periods, should be evaluated by age 15 or within five years of early breast development, and is most commonly caused by conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome and hypothalamic amenorrhea.
research The 5alpha-reductase type 1, but not type 2, gene is expressed in anagen hairs plucked from the vertex area of the scalp of hirsute women and normal individuals
The gene SDR5A1 is found in scalp hair of both hirsute and normal individuals, but it does not explain differences in hair growth.
research Systematic review of low-level laser therapy for adult androgenic alopecia
Low-level laser therapy can stimulate hair growth more effectively than fake devices, but patient satisfaction is similar for both. Results should be taken with caution due to small study sizes and differences between studies. More research is needed.
research Finding Long-COVID: temporal topic modeling of electronic health records from the N3C and RECOVER programs
Long-COVID causes more health issues after COVID-19, varying by age, sex, and infection wave.
research A comparative study of skin transcriptomes and histological observations for black and white hair colors of giant panda
The study found that giant pandas have more melanin in black hair follicles than white, with gene expression differences that could affect hair color and skin health.
research The heart of the hair fiber: How the inner structure of the coat reflects adaptive variation across color, sex, age, and body region in dromedary camels (Camelus dromedarius)
Camel hair structure, not color, helps camels stay cool in the desert.
research N02. Hair and Nails
Researchers found new hair and nail genes, how hair reacts to UV, differences in white and pigmented hair growth, nerve changes in alopecia, treatments for baldness and alopecia, a toenail condition linked to a genetic disorder, and that nail fungus is more common in people with psoriasis.
research Buschke-Ollendorff syndrome
Buschke-Ollendorff syndrome is a rare genetic disorder causing skin and bone changes, with some cases also showing ADHD or developmental delays.
research Cancer risk in polycystic ovary syndrome patients: Common treatments and future perspectives
PCOS is linked to a higher risk of endometrial cancer but not ovarian or breast cancer, and more research is needed on its role in cancer development and treatment effects.
research The GPR30 agonist G-1 promotes hair growth via Wnt/Hedgehog signaling in mice
G-1 promotes hair growth in female mice by activating specific signaling pathways.
research Transcriptome Profiling of Pilosebaceous Units in Male Androgenetic Alopecia Reveals Altered Junctional Networks
Hair loss in male pattern baldness is linked to changes in specific genes and proteins that affect hair growth and scalp health.
research Discovery of Natural Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors
Natural herbal compounds might treat certain medical conditions by reducing DHT levels, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Wokeness in Our Practice
Dermatologists should address discrimination and consider ethnic and gender differences in treatments.
research Endocrine intervention for transsexuals
Hormone treatment for transsexual individuals is effective but carries risks like thromboembolic events and mood changes, with most side effects being minor and reversible.
research Cosmetics and hair and nails
Hair and nails are skin parts that develop early and serve protective and functional roles.
research The Alopecia Areata Investigator Global Assessment scale: a measure for evaluating clinically meaningful success in clinical trials
The AA-IGA scale reliably measures treatment success in alopecia areata by considering both clinician and patient views.
research Inhibitors of 5α-Reductase in the Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
5α-reductase inhibitors and alpha-1 adrenergic antagonists together effectively treat benign prostatic hyperplasia, with long-term benefits.
research A novel missense mutation in the mouse hairless gene causes irreversible hair loss: Genetic and molecular analyses of Hrm1Enu
A new genetic mutation in mice causes permanent hair loss and skin wrinkling.
research Dihydrotestosterone, and Not Testosterone, Enhances the LPS-Induced Inflammatory Cytokine Gene Expression in Human Adipocytes
Dihydrotestosterone boosts inflammation in fat cells more than testosterone.
research Quercetin and polycystic ovary syndrome
Quercetin may help improve symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Prevalence and Predictors of Impaired Glucose Tolerance and Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Many women with polycystic ovary syndrome have normal blood sugar, but some may have higher blood sugar levels or diabetes, especially if they are older, overweight, and have certain hormone levels.
research Whole-Genome Resequencing Reveals Selection Signal Related to Sheep Wool Fineness
Genes linked to wool fineness in sheep have been identified.
research How to Choose the Optimal Starting Dose of Clomiphene Citrate (50 or 100 mg per Day) for a First Cycle of Ovulation Induction in Anovulatory PCOS Women?
Choosing the right starting dose of Clomiphene Citrate for ovulation induction in PCOS women is challenging; higher BMI and hormone levels may indicate resistance to the standard dose.
research The Biological Actions of Dehydroepiandrosterone Involves Multiple Receptors
