research Clinical features, with video documentation, of the original familial lewy body parkinsonism caused by α‐synuclein triplication (Iowa kindred)
The document describes a woman with familial Parkinson's disease due to a genetic mutation, showing severe symptoms and poor response to treatment, and suggests finasteride may help reduce symptoms in Tourette syndrome.
research The effect of polyphloretin phosphate, polyoestradiol phosphate, a diphosphonate and a polyphosphate on calcification induced by dihydrotachysterol in skin, aorta and kidney of rats
The diphosphonate was the most effective at preventing calcification in rats.
research Reduced estradiol synthesis by letrozole, an aromatase inhibitor, is protective against development of pentylenetetrazole-induced kindling in mice
Letrozole may help prevent seizures by reducing certain hormone levels.
research Call Yourself a Surgeon? The use of the title surgeon among non-surgical cosmetic practitioners in the United Kingdom
research 1323 Human dermal fibroblasts and mast cell populations are altered in hidradenitis suppurativa, with epithelial-mesenchymal-transition signals ameliorated by spleen tyrosine kinase antagonism.
Skin cells and immune cells change in a skin condition called hidradenitis suppurativa, and a certain treatment can improve these changes.
research A Simple Assessing Method for Screening Prevalence of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (The Thief of Womanhood) and Emotional Distress in Female Students at Northern Border University (NBU) in Arar, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA)
Many female students at Northern Border University in Saudi Arabia may have Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and related emotional distress, so those at risk should get further tests and treatment.
research A comparison of self-reported signs of facial aging among women in Australia vs. those in the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada
Women in Australia report different signs of facial aging compared to women in the US, UK, and Canada; men with Lichen planopilaris often have hormonal abnormalities and thyroid disease.
research Melatonin membrane receptors in peripheral tissues: Distribution and functions
Melatonin affects many body functions beyond sleep by interacting with specific receptors in various tissues.
research Deletion of Deoxyribonucleic Acid Binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor Abrogates Genomic and Nongenomic Functions of Vitamin D

research North American clinical management guidelines for hidradenitis suppurativa: A publication from the United States and Canadian Hidradenitis Suppurativa Foundations
There is no standardized treatment for hidradenitis suppurativa, and individualized plans are needed.
research A randomized, double-blind, placebo- and active-controlled, half-head study to evaluate the effects of platelet-rich plasma on alopecia areata
Platelet-rich plasma treatment significantly increased hair regrowth and decreased discomfort in alopecia patients, making it a potentially better and safer treatment option.
research Cutaneous adverse effects of targeted therapies
Targeted cancer therapies often cause serious skin problems that need careful management.
research The structure of human trichohyalin. Potential multiple roles as a functional EF-hand-like calcium-binding protein, a cornified cell envelope precursor, and an intermediate filament-associated (cross-linking) protein
Trichohyalin helps in hair and skin cell structure and function by binding calcium and linking proteins.
