Mesenchymal stromal cells may help treat severe COVID-19, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness.
research Medical Treatment of Noncicatricial Alopecia
Minoxidil and finasteride can help with hair loss, but more research is needed to improve treatments for certain types of hair loss.
research Advancements in research on the immune-inflammatory mechanisms mediated by NLRP3 inflammasome in ischemic stroke and the regulatory role of natural plant products
Natural plant products like Proanthocyanidins and curcumin may help treat ischemic stroke by reducing inflammation.

research Niosomal delivery of pumpkin seed oil: development, characterisation, and physical stability
The pumpkin seed oil niosomes are promising for skin and hair treatments because they are stable and effectively deliver the oil.
research Discovery of Natural Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors
Natural herbal compounds might treat certain medical conditions by reducing DHT levels, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Drug eruptions in dermatology
Skin reactions to drugs are common and can be deadly, usually requiring stopping the drug and may be better prevented with genetic testing in the future.

Taking Propecia might lead to the development of cataracts.
research Feasibility of implementing current best clinical practice for people who are using anabolic androgenic steroids within a Swiss primary care practice: a quality assurance study
Integrating best practices for steroid users in Swiss primary care is feasible and beneficial, but doping laws need change.
research Bicalutamide: A potential new oral antiandrogenic drug for female pattern hair loss
Bicalutamide may be a promising alternative treatment for female pattern hair loss.
research Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia in Men: Presentations in 12 Cases and a Review of the Literature
FFA in men, often mistaken for other hair loss types, may be more common than thought and needs larger studies for confirmation.
research Interconnected PolymerS TeChnology (IPSTiC): An Effective Approach for the Modulation of 5α-Reductase Activity in Hair Loss Conditions
A new anti-baldness patch effectively treats hair loss by blocking enzymes linked to the condition.
research Finasteride and Suicide: A Postmarketing Case Series
Finasteride may increase suicide risk; more research needed.
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 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.
