research Assessing diagnostic skill in dermatology: A comparison between general practitioners and dermatologists
Dermatologists are more accurate than general practitioners in diagnosing skin conditions, especially skin cancer.
research Treatment with and withdrawal from finasteride alter ethanol intake patterns in male C57BL/6J mice: Potential role of endogenous neurosteroids?
Finasteride affects alcohol intake in male mice, possibly due to neurosteroids.
research Bacteria induce skin regeneration via IL-1β signaling
Skin bacteria, specifically Staphylococcus aureus, help in wound healing and hair growth by using IL-1β signaling. Using antibiotics on skin wounds can slow down this natural healing process.

FOXN1 gene variants cause low T cells and immune issues from birth.
research Defects in mitochondrial DNA replication and oxidative damage in muscle of mtDNA mutator mice
Defective mitochondrial DNA replication causes aging symptoms and increased oxidative damage in mice.
research Disruption of the hedgehog signaling pathway contributes to the hair follicle cycling deficiency in Vdr knockout mice
Mice without Vitamin D receptors have hair growth problems because of issues in the hedgehog signaling pathway.
research Malassezia spp. overgrowth in allergic cats
Allergic cats with yeast overgrowth improved with antifungal treatment.
research Decreased Androgen Receptor Gene Methylation in Premature Pubarche: A Novel Pathogenetic Mechanism?
Reduced AR gene methylation may cause early pubic hair growth in girls.
research Dermatologic Manifestations of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection
HIV can cause unusual and severe skin problems that are hard to treat.
research Metabolic syndrome and the skin: a more than superficial association. Reviewing the association between skin diseases and metabolic syndrome and a clinical decision algorithm for high risk patients
Some skin conditions may indicate metabolic syndrome, which could help with early detection and management of related health issues.
research Clinician vs Self-ratings of Hirsutism in Patients With Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Patients with PCOS rate their hirsutism higher than clinicians, and these self-ratings are more closely related to their quality of life and risk of depression.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: An update
The document concludes that mouse models are crucial for studying hair biology and that all mutant mice may have hair growth abnormalities that require detailed analysis to identify.
research Advances in nucleoside monophosphate prodrugs as anti-HCV agents
New treatments for Hepatitis C show promise but need more research to confirm their safety and effectiveness for clinical use.
research Association of biochemical hyperandrogenism with type 2 diabetes and obesity in Chinese women with polycystic ovary syndrome
High androgen levels in Chinese women with PCOS are linked to a higher risk of diabetes and obesity.
research Phenotypic Diversity and Mutation Spectrum in Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy
Different harmful mutations in the CDH3 gene cause HJMD, but symptoms vary among individuals.
research ANTIANDROGEN TREATMENT OF POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME
Antiandrogen treatments combined with oral contraceptives can help manage hair growth and hair loss in women with PCOS.
research Compliance With Contraceptives and Other Treatments
People often struggle to consistently use contraceptives and other medications, and long-acting options might be better for those who want to avoid daily doses.
research High proliferation and delamination during skin epidermal stratification
High proliferation and cell delamination drive early skin development, while later stages may not rely on cell division orientation.
research Diagnosis and Management of Alopecia in Children
The guide explains how to identify and treat children's hair loss, including fungal infections, autoimmune disorders, hairstyle changes, self-correcting conditions, and behavioral therapy for hair-pulling.
research Small molecules and small molecule drugs in regenerative medicine
Small molecule drugs show promise for advancing regenerative medicine but still face development challenges.
research Steroidal 5α-reductase and 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase (CYP17) inhibitors useful in the treatment of prostatic diseases
Certain drugs that block specific enzymes can help treat prostate diseases.
research The prevalence of idiopathic hirsutism and polycystic ovary syndrome in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study
About 13% of women had idiopathic hirsutism and 8.5% had polycystic ovary syndrome in a group of Iranian women.
research Analysis of hormone antagonists in clinical and municipal wastewater by isotopic dilution liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry
Researchers developed a method to detect hormone-blocking drugs in wastewater and found them in Beijing's sewage, suggesting they can survive sewage treatment.
research Comparison of high-dose finasteride (5 mg/day) versus low-dose finasteride (2.5 mg/day) in the treatment of hirsutism
Low-dose finasteride effectively treats hirsutism, is safe, and cost-effective.
research The therapeutic use of androgens in women
Testosterone replacement may improve sexual desire and bone health in women with low androgen levels, but more research is needed on its long-term safety.
research The spectrum of inflammatory skin disease following jejuno-ileal bypass for morbid obesity
Some patients developed skin inflammation after obesity surgery, and a medication called dapsone helped treat it.
research Four days of simulated shift work reduces insulin sensitivity in humans
