research Prevalence of dermatologic manifestations and metabolic biomarkers in women with polycystic ovary syndrome in north China
Women with PCOS in North China often have hirsutism and acne, with hirsutism linked to metabolic issues.
research Free androgen index (FAI)’s relations with oxidative stress and insulin resistance in polycystic ovary syndrome
Oxidative stress, not insulin resistance, is significantly related to free androgen index in PCOS.
research Androgenetic alopecia is associated with increased arterial stiffness in asymptomatic young adults
Young adults with hair loss face higher risk of stiff arteries.
research The effect of platelet‐rich plasma injection in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia
PRP injections improve hair thickness and density in hair loss, but more research needed.
research A systematic review of the effect of platelet‐rich plasma on androgenetic alopecia of women
PRP treatment improves hair density and diameter in women with androgenetic alopecia.
research Bone Mineral Density is Unaltered in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS have similar bone density to healthy women, but those who are obese have higher bone density at some body sites.
research Transcriptomic inspection revealed a possible pathway regulating the formation of the high-quality brush hair in Chinese Haimen goat ( Capra hircus )
Scientists found genes linked to the growth of high-quality brush hair in Chinese Haimen goats.
research Human platelet lysate versus minoxidil stimulates hair growth by activating anagen promoting signaling pathways
Both human platelet lysate and minoxidil can promote hair growth, but they affect different genes and cell survival rates.
research Simultaneous determination of androgens and prostaglandins in human urine using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
Researchers developed a reliable way to measure hormones in urine, showing that a baldness treatment doesn't change hormone levels.
research The effect of alfacalcidiol and metformin on metabolic disturbances in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Metformin effectively improves metabolic symptoms in women with PCOS, while alfacalcidiol does not have a significant impact.
research Medical Treatment of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Suggestive of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia involves drugs that either quickly relieve symptoms or reduce prostate size, with a combination offering more benefits but more side effects.
research Androgenetic alopecia and COVID ‐19: A review of the hypothetical role of androgens
Possible link between androgens and COVID-19 severity; more research needed.
research Evaluation of Cysteic Acid in Bleached Hair Using Infrared Spectroscopy
Bleaching hair increases cysteic acid levels in a predictable way.
research Synthesis, Anticancer and Molecular Docking Studies of 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-aryl-1,3,4-Oxadiazole Analogues
The compound 4c showed strong potential as an anticancer agent.
research Variations in alanine aminotransferase levels within the normal range predict metabolic and androgenic phenotypes in women of reproductive age
Normal-range ALT levels can indicate metabolic and hormonal imbalances in young women.
research Novel Systematics of Nomenclature and Classification of Female Functional Androgenization (Including Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Non-Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia)
A new system helps better diagnose and treat female androgenization conditions like PCOS.
research Effect of phlebotomy versus oral contraceptives containing cyproterone acetate on the clinical and biochemical parameters in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a randomized controlled trial
Blood removal and birth control pills both helped with hormone levels in women with PCOS, but birth control was better for regular periods and blood removal had fewer side effects.
research Alopecia in women submitted to childhood X-ray epilation for tinea capitis treatment
Women treated with X-ray for scalp fungus as children had a higher chance of hair loss, especially with higher radiation doses and severe fungus infections.
research Progranulin, a secreted tumorigenesis and dementia-related factor, regulates mouse hair growth
Progranulin overexpression leads to shorter, thinner hair and increased cell death in mouse hair follicles.
research Severe metabolic disorders coexisting with Werner syndrome: a case report
A patient with Werner syndrome showed a range of aging-like symptoms and metabolic issues, underscoring the need for early detection and treatment.
research Assessment of markers expressed in human hair follicles according to different skin regions
Different body parts have varying levels of certain hair follicle markers.
research Influence of the alkylsulfonylamino substituent located at the 6-position of 2,2-dimethylchromans structurally related to cromakalim: From potassium channel openers to calcium entry blockers?
New compounds similar to cromakalim were less effective at inhibiting insulin release but improved in solubility and one acted as a calcium entry blocker, not a potassium channel opener.
research Hyperadrenocorticism in Ferrets
Hyperadrenocorticism in ferrets is linked to neutering and indoor housing, and is best treated with surgery and a deslorelin implant.
research Medical consequences of long-term anabolic-androgenic Steroids (AASs) abuses in athletes
Long-term steroid abuse in athletes causes serious health risks, outweighing any benefits.
research Characterization of nonkeratinous proteins extracted from human hair by permanet wave lotion.
Permanent wave lotion can extract proteins from hair, especially when pH is higher, and repeated treatments or bleaching can damage hair.
research Platelet-rich fibrin in the management of oral mucosal lesions: a scoping review
Platelet-rich fibrin shows promise for treating oral lesions but needs more research.
research Cardiovascular profile of pharmacological agents used for the management of polycystic ovary syndrome
Medications for PCOS don't seem to raise heart disease risk.
research Comparison of Finasteride, Metformin, and Finasteride Plus Metformin in PCOS
Finasteride and metformin both help treat PCOS, but using them together works best.
research Safety of Janus Kinase inhibitors in Patients with Alopecia Areata: A Systematic Review
JAK inhibitors for alopecia areata are linked to minor side effects like headache and acne, but not to an increased risk of serious adverse events.
