research Pigmented Epithelioid Melanocytoma (PEM)/Animal Type Melanoma (ATM): Quest for an Origin. Report of One Unusual Case Indicating Follicular Origin and Another Arising in an Intradermal Nevus
The conclusion is that Pigmented Epithelioid Melanocytoma can start from hair follicle stem cells or from a mole on the skin.
research A rational approach to the diagnosis of polycystic ovarian syndrome during adolescence
Diagnosing PCOS in teenagers should focus on signs of excess male hormones and not rely solely on ovarian ultrasound or irregular periods, and should be reassessed in adulthood.
research Exploring the new horizons of drug repurposing: A vital tool for turning hard work into smart work
