Research
150-180 / 1000+ results research Can zinc depletion play a role in LEV-induced hair loss? Considerations from a case study
research Aromatase inhibition by letrozole attenuates kainic acid-induced seizures but not neurotoxicity in mice
Letrozole reduces seizures but not brain damage in mice.
research Low Serum Biotinidase Activity in Children with Valproic Acid Monotherapy
Children taking higher doses of valproic acid had lower biotinidase activity, which may lead to biotin deficiency, but biotin supplements could help.
research 2‐Deoxy‐d ‐glucose enhances tonic inhibition through the neurosteroid‐mediated activation of extrasynaptic GABA A receptors
2-DG reduces seizures by enhancing brain inhibition through specific receptor activation.
research Long-term control of epileptic drop attacks with the combination of valproate, lamotrigine, and a benzodiazepine: A ‘proof of concept,’ open label study
The drug combination significantly reduced epileptic drop attacks in patients.
research The Acute Anticonvulsant Effects of Deoxycorticosterone in Developing Rats: Role of Metabolites and Mineralocorticoid‐receptor Responses
Deoxycorticosterone and its metabolites help prevent seizures by interacting with specific receptors.
research Neurosteroids as Endogenous Regulators of Seizure Susceptibility
Stress increases neurosteroids that help prevent seizures.
research Neurosteroids and epileptogenesis in the pilocarpine model: Evidence for a relationship between P450scc induction and length of the latent period
Neurosteroid production in the brain may delay seizure onset.
research Secondary Syphilis in Patients Treated at the City Institute for Skin and Venereal Diseases in Belgrade from 2010 to 2014
The conclusion is that cerebrovascular diseases can cause seizure-like activity in stroke patients, which can be improved with antiepileptic drugs.
research Finasteride and male fertility
Finasteride may decrease semen quality but not harm sperm production, and stopping the drug can improve semen quality; hyperprolactinemia can cause infertility but is treatable with medication.
research Stress-Induced Deoxycorticosterone-Derived Neurosteroids Modulate GABAAReceptor Function and Seizure Susceptibility
Stress increases neurosteroids that help prevent seizures.
research A New Look at the 5?-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate and hair loss, but may cause side effects in some patients.
research Consumption of a low-carbohydrate and high-fat diet (the ketogenic diet) exaggerates biotin deficiency in mice
The ketogenic diet can worsen biotin deficiency, suggesting a need for biotin supplements.
research Hepatitis C Treatment and Alopecia Totalis
Hepatitis C treatment may trigger complete hair loss, especially in those with a history of patchy hair loss, but hair usually grows back within a year.
research Deoxycorticosterone’s anticonvulsant effects in infant rats are blocked by finasteride, but not by indomethacin
Finasteride blocks deoxycorticosterone's anticonvulsant effects in infant rats, but indomethacin doesn't.
research Resolution of pseudoainhum with acitretin therapy in a patient with palmoplantar keratoderma and congenital alopecia
Acitretin helped improve hand mobility and skin condition in a patient.
research Rheumatoid arthritis and gouty arthritis in an adult patient with Down's syndrome
A 44-year-old woman with Down's syndrome was diagnosed with both rheumatoid and gouty arthritis and treated with multiple medications.
research Temporal triangular alopecia
Temporal triangular alopecia is a lifelong condition with hairless patches on the side of the head that may be present from birth.
research Survey of alimentary radiological findings.
The document concludes that most hair loss treatments don't work, balding isn't caused by dandruff, and hair loss may indicate serious health issues that require medical attention.
research Neurosteroid Synthesis-Mediated Regulation of GABAAReceptors: Relevance to the Ovarian Cycle and Stress
Ovarian and stress hormones can change GABA A receptors through neurosteroids.
research Acne
Acne affects most teenagers and can continue into adulthood, with various treatments available that show improvement but have concerns like antibiotic resistance and side effects.
research Health-related quality of life in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: A comparison with the general population using the Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Questionnaire (PCOSQ) and the Short Form-36 (SF-36)
Women with PCOS have lower quality of life, especially in mental health and energy, and managing weight can help improve it.
research Group-ICA Model Order Highlights Patterns of Functional Brain Connectivity
Choosing the right model order in brain connectivity analysis can affect the detection of differences between healthy individuals and those with seasonal affective disorder.
research Midazolam Inhibits Hippocampal Long-Term Potentiation and Learning through Dual Central and Peripheral Benzodiazepine Receptor Activation and Neurosteroidogenesis
Midazolam impairs learning and memory by increasing neurosteroids through specific receptor activation.
research Finasteride Blocks the Reduction in Ictal Activity Produced by Exogenous Estrous Cyclicity
research Health-related quality of life and psychological distress in polycystic ovary syndrome: a hidden facet in South Asian women
South Asian women with PCOS experience more psychological distress and have a poorer quality of life, especially in social relationships, with hirsutism affecting them more than obesity.
research Exploring the Drug Repurposing Versatility of Valproic Acid as a Multifunctional Regulator of Innate and Adaptive Immune Cells
Valproic Acid could potentially be used to treat immune-related conditions due to its ability to modify immune cell functions.
research Potassium channel openers: therapeutic potential in cardiology and medicine
Potassium channel openers show promise for treating heart disease and other conditions, but more research is needed to fully understand their effects and safety.
research Antioxidant and prebiotic activities of selenium-containing green tea
Selenium-enriched green tea might be a safe prebiotic for gut health.
