The document concluded that more research is needed to understand how estrogen affects the enzyme involved in hirsutism development.
research Stem cell secretome as a mechanism for restoring hair loss due to stress, particularly alopecia areata: narrative review
Stem cells and their secretions could potentially treat stress-induced hair loss, but more human trials are needed.
research Dunnigan-Type Familial Partial Lipodystrophy: Understanding and Treating the Syndrome
The document concludes that managing Dunnigan-Type Familial Partial Lipodystrophy involves treating associated health issues and using medications like metformin and leptin replacement.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia
Frontal fibrosing alopecia causes hair loss at the front hairline, and no effective treatment exists.
research Non‐biologic immunosuppressive drugs for inflammatory and autoimmune skin diseases
Non-biologic immunosuppressive drugs are crucial for treating autoimmune and chronic inflammatory skin diseases.
research Challenges in treatment of patients with non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Treating non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia is complex because the benefits of hormone treatment must be weighed against potential health risks.
research The Modulation of Aromatase and Estrogen Receptor Alpha in Cultured Human Dermal Papilla Cells by Dexamethasone: A Novel Mechanism for Selective Action of Estrogen via Estrogen Receptor Beta?
Dexamethasone may influence hair growth by altering estrogen receptor activity in hair cells.
research Central precocious puberty secondary to peripheral precocious puberty due to a pineal germ cell tumor: a case and review of literature
A pineal tumor caused a boy's early puberty, which changed from peripheral to central after treatment.
research Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, hair, and sebum: Stress-mediated dermatologic disasters of the pandemic era
Pandemic stress worsens hair loss and skin issues, suggesting combined mental and skin care treatments.
research Embolic Stroke as the Initial Manifestation of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Early recognition and management of connective tissue diseases like lupus are crucial in young patients.
research Gray Hair: From Preventive to Treatment
Gray hair can potentially be managed or reversed with treatments that boost melanin production and address nutritional deficiencies.
research Testosterone in COVID-19: An Adversary Bane or Comrade Boon
Testosterone's effects on COVID-19 are unclear and need more research.
research Can Extra Adrenal Cortisol Secretion Occur in an Adrenalectomized Patient?
A patient produced cortisol after adrenalectomy, possibly due to residual tissue or other body parts making steroids.
research Chapter 17. Selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs)
Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs) are drugs that can control the effects of androgens in different tissues, potentially having fewer side effects and promising for treating various conditions.
research Treatment of hirsutism with the pure antiandrogen flutamide
Flutamide effectively reduced excessive hair growth and improved related symptoms in hirsutism patients without significant side effects.
research The Effect of Parathyroid Hormones on Hair Follicle Physiology: Implications for Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Parathyroid hormones are important for hair growth, but their use in treating hair loss from chemotherapy is still uncertain.
research The clinical management of hirsutism
The document concludes that managing hirsutism involves identifying the cause, using a scoring system for severity, combining cosmetic and medical treatments, encouraging weight loss, and providing psychological support, while noting the need for more research on drug treatments.
research Functionally enhanced placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cells inhibit adipogenesis in orbital fibroblasts with Graves’ ophthalmopathy
Enhanced stem cells from the placenta can reduce fat cell formation in eye disease.
research PHARMACOLOGICAL BASIS FOR CLINICAL USE OF ANTIANDROGENS
Cyproterone acetate is used to treat conditions like prostate cancer, early puberty, excessive sexual drive, and female androgenization by affecting androgen functions and suppressing certain hormones.
research Prostaglandin D2-Mediated DP2 and AKT Signal Regulate the Activation of Androgen Receptors in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
PGD2 increases androgen receptor activity in hair cells, which could be targeted to treat hair loss.
research COVID-19 and hypopituitarism
COVID-19 and hypopituitarism (reduced pituitary gland function) are linked, with the latter's related health issues potentially worsening COVID-19 outcomes, and COVID-19 possibly increasing risk for pituitary complications.
research Neurosteroids, neuroactive steroids, and symptoms of affective disorders
Certain steroids in the brain affect mood and symptoms of depression, and treatments targeting these steroids show promise for improving these symptoms.
research Management of Hair Loss
Minoxidil and finasteride are effective for male hair loss, minoxidil for female hair loss, and various treatments like corticosteroids work for alopecia areata; treatment should be tailored to the individual.
