960-990 / 1000+ results research Sensitive Scalp and Trichodynia: Epidemiology, Etiopathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Management
Sensitive scalp causes discomfort and may relate to hair loss, with treatment focusing on scalp care and medication.
research Control of androgen receptor expression in human keratinocytes and in a reconstituted human epidermis model with selective antisense oligonucleotides
Antisense oligonucleotides can reduce androgen receptor levels in skin cells, suggesting potential for treating skin disorders.
research Sex Steroids, Precursors, and Metabolite Deficiencies in Men With Isolated Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism and Panhypopituitarism: A GCMS-Based Comparative Study
Men with isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism have partial steroid deficiencies, while those with panhypopituitarism have severe deficiencies.
research On the Effect of Estrogen Receptor Agonists and Antagonists on the Mouse Hair Follicle Cycle
β-estradiol slows hair growth in mice.
research Distinctive features of steroid hormone metabolism in female patients with androgenic alopecia
Women with hair thinning have disrupted steroid hormone levels, but this doesn't often show as other health issues. More research is needed on hormone balance in this condition.
research Intraethnic variation in steroid-5-alpha-reductase polymorphisms in prostate cancer patients: a potential factor implicated in 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor treatment
Genetic differences within ethnic groups may affect prostate cancer treatment effectiveness.
research Heterozygous 21‐hydroxylasedeficiency as a cause of hyperandrogenism
A woman's hyperandrogenism was caused by a genetic mutation leading to non-classic adrenogenital syndrome.
research Indirect clinical markers for the detection of anabolic steroid abuse beyond the conventional doping control in athletes
New signs like changes in blood markers, physical symptoms, and behavioral shifts may help detect hidden steroid use in athletes.
research Estrogen and Progesterone Receptors in Androgenic Alopecia Versus Alopecia Areata
Estrogen and progesterone don't directly affect hair growth in androgenic alopecia and alopecia areata.
research Expression Level of Prostaglandin D2 Receptor 2 Regulates Hair Regression
Higher levels of the DP2 receptor may lead to hair loss.
research Sensitive skin
Sensitive skin is often caused by nerve fibers and environmental factors, and can be managed with mild skincare and professional advice.
research Becker's nevus associated with chromosomal mosaicism and congenital adrenal hyperplasia
High androgen levels and genetic factors likely cause Becker's nevus and related symptoms.
research Novel potential avenues for the therapy of Tourette syndrome: Cannabinoid- and steroid-based interventions
Cannabinoid and steroid-based drugs could be new treatments for Tourette syndrome, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Suspected upadacitinib-associated drug hypersensitivity mimicking disease exacerbation in ulcerative colitis
Upadacitinib can cause hypersensitivity that worsens ulcerative colitis symptoms.
research Type A insulin resistance syndrome due to a novel heterozygous c.3486_3503del (p. Arg1163_Ala1168del) INSR gene mutation in an adolescent girl and her mother
A new gene mutation causes insulin resistance in a girl and her mother.
research Estradiol protects hair cells from cisplatin-induced ototoxicity via Nrf2 activation
Estradiol may protect ear cells from hearing loss caused by a chemotherapy drug by activating a protective pathway.
research Impaired responses of peripheral blood mononuclear cells to T-cell stimulants in alopecia areata patients with a poor response to topical immunotherapy
Poor response to topical immunotherapy in alopecia areata patients is linked to impaired cell responses.
research Six-year Retrospective Review of Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms
Early detection and stopping the drug are key to managing DRESS, and careful monitoring is important due to possible severe reactions.
