research Treatment of female sexual dysfunction in postmenopausal women—What is the evidence?
Hormonal changes and psychological issues can cause sexual dysfunction in postmenopausal women. Behavioral therapy is recommended first, with hormone replacement helping some symptoms but not libido. Testosterone can improve libido, but its effects on overall sexual function are unclear. Emotional and relationship issues should be addressed before using medication, and the benefits and risks of testosterone supplementation should be considered.
research Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome—Current Status and Prospects for Gene Therapy Treatment
Gene therapy has potential as a future treatment for Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome.
research From gene to therapy in spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy: Are we there yet?
Effective treatments for spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy are not yet available; more research is needed.
research Zinc in the Soil and Its Importance for the Plants and Human Health. An integrated review
Zinc is essential for plant growth and human health, but many soils lack enough zinc, affecting crops and potentially leading to health problems.
research Penetration and storage of particles in human skin: Perspectives and safety aspects
Particles around 100 nm can penetrate and stay in hair follicles without passing through healthy skin, making them safe for use in topical products and useful for targeted drug delivery.
research Hormonal Treatment Strategies Tailored to Non-Binary Transgender Individuals
Non-binary transgender individuals need personalized hormonal treatments for better well-being and quality of life.
research Potential of nano-phytochemicals in cervical cancer therapy
Nano-sized plant-based chemicals could improve cervical cancer treatment by being more effective and causing fewer side effects than current methods.
