research Penile vascular abnormalities in young men with persistent side effects after finasteride use for the treatment of androgenic alopecia
Finasteride for hair loss may cause lasting sexual, genitourinary, mental, and anti-androgenic side effects in young men.
research Omics for Precious Rare Biosamples: Characterization of Ancient Human Hair by a Proteomic Approach
The study developed a method to analyze ancient hair proteins using very small samples.
research Why were Sardinians the shortest Europeans? A journey through genes, infections, nutrition, and sex
Sardinians were historically short due to a mix of genetics and factors like disease and poor nutrition, but recent height increases suggest better living conditions had a bigger impact.
research Clinical Case Notes. Malignant melanoma in eviscerated eyeball
Finasteride, often used for hair loss, can potentially cause cataracts.
research Essential Role of STAT3 Signaling in Hair Follicle Homeostasis
STAT3 signaling is important for healthy skin and hair follicles, and its disruption can lead to skin conditions like atopic dermatitis.
research Diversity of vibrissal follicle anatomy in cetaceans
Different whale and dolphin species have unique whisker follicle structures, suggesting they might use their whiskers in various ways.
research Clinical Case Notes. Retinoblastoma, microphthalmia and the chromosome 13q deletion syndrome
The document concludes that careful diagnosis is crucial for chromosome 13q deletion syndrome, tamoxifen can cause reversible eye damage, finasteride may be linked to cataracts, and OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.
research Predicting Human Appearance from DNA for Forensic Investigations
DNA can predict physical traits like eye and hair color accurately, especially in Europeans, but predicting other traits and in diverse populations needs more research.
research The anti-androgen combination, flutamide plus finasteride, paradoxically suppressed LH and androgen concentrations in pregnant spotted hyenas, but not in males
Flutamide and finasteride reduced sex hormones in pregnant hyenas, but increased them in males.
research Clinical Case Notes. Optical coherence tomography of adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy
Multiple eye conditions were studied, highlighting the importance of various imaging methods for diagnosis, the vision side effects of drugs tamoxifen and Propecia, and the usefulness of optical coherence tomography for diagnosing and monitoring macular and retinal diseases.
research K15 promoter-driven enforced expression of NKIRAS exhibits tumor suppressive activity against the development of DMBA/TPA-induced skin tumors
NKIRAS2 can suppress certain skin tumors but its effect on cancer varies with context and expression level.
research Safety and efficacy of oral administrated cepharanthine in non-hospitalized, asymptomatic or mild COVID-19 patients: a Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial
Cepharanthine is safe but not effective in significantly reducing COVID-19 recovery time.
research Spontaneous fertility in a male patient with testotoxicosis despite suppression of FSH levels
A man with testotoxicosis was fertile despite low FSH levels, suggesting high testosterone may allow sperm production without FSH.
research The genetically programmed hair growth cycle and alopecia: what is there to know?
The document concludes that hair loss is complex, affects many people, has limited treatments, and requires more research on its causes and psychological impact.
research Role of the Wnt signaling pathway in keratoacanthoma
The Wnt signaling pathway is not a major factor in the development of keratoacanthoma, a type of skin tumor.
