research Folliculotropic mycosis fungoides in a child: a rare case
Folliculotropic mycosis fungoides can occur in children and is diagnosed with specific tests, but often stays in early stages with treatment.
research Permeation of topically applied caffeine through human skin – a comparison of in vivo and in vitro data
Caffeine penetrates human skin in lab tests similarly to real-life conditions, but actual skin use is still essential for accurate results.
research Combination Therapies and the Theoretical Limits of Evidence-Based Medicine
The current system can't fully test all combination treatments, so alternative methods and regulatory flexibility are needed.
research Dermoscopic evaluation of therapeutic response to an intralesional corticosteroid in the treatment of alopecia areata
Intralesional triamcinolone acetonide is effective for treating patchy hair loss, and dermoscopy helps detect treatment response and side effects early.
research A Thallium-Based Screening Procedure to Identify Molecules That Modulate the Activity of Ca2+-Activated Monovalent Cation-Selective Channels
The conclusion is that a new test was created to find substances that affect specific ion channels, and it works well for drug discovery.
research Molecular mapping of lymph node metastases by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction in two melanoma patients
The conclusion is that a certain test might help find cancer spread in lymph nodes for melanoma patients, but more research is needed due to false positives.
research Evaluation and Management of the Hair Loss Patient in the Primary Care Setting
Doctors should diagnose hair loss by examining the patient and possibly doing tests, and then treat it based on the type, which may prevent permanent hair loss.
research External light activates hair follicle stem cells through eyes via an ipRGC–SCN–sympathetic neural pathway
Light can turn on hair growth cells through a nerve path starting in the eyes.
research Dermatology consultations significantly contribute to efficient care of hospitalized patients: A prospective study of dermatology inpatient consults at a tertiary care center
Hirsutism and acanthosis nigricans are reliable skin signs of PCOS and suggest the need for further tests for related health issues.
research Morphological characteristics and notes of the skin in preclinical toxicity assessment
Skin structure complexity and variability are crucial for assessing skin toxicity in safety tests.
research The convergence between diagnostic methods in women with non-scarring hair loss.
Clinical exams are good for diagnosing some women's hair loss, but lab tests aren't always needed.
research 210 THE NEW APPROACH TO EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF ADENOMYOSIS
A new method can almost perfectly distinguish adenomyosis from similar conditions using blood tests.
research Human Derived Immortalized Dermal Papilla Cells With a Constant Expression of Testosterone Receptor
Researchers created immortal human skin cells with constant testosterone receptor activity to study hair loss and test treatments.
research What should it take to describe a substance or product as 'sperm-safe'
Products should be called 'sperm-safe' only after thorough, well-designed tests.
research Guidelines of care for superficial mycotic infectionsof the skin: Tinea capitis and tinea barbae
Treat scalp and beard fungal infections early with oral antifungal medication and sometimes topical therapy, avoiding unnecessary allergy tests and surgery.
research An isotope dilution-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry-based candidate reference measurement procedure for the quantification of 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone in human serum and plasma
The procedure accurately measures 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone in blood, useful for standard tests.
research Origin, Clinical Presentation, and Diagnosis of Facial Hypermelanoses
Facial dark spots can be caused by the sun, genetics, makeup, or medicine, and are diagnosed by patient history and skin tests.
research Plain Language Summaries
Eczema patients have a lower skin lipid to protein ratio, older and longer-staying hospital patients are more likely to get pressure ulcers, hair loss in AGA is linked to muscle degeneration, vitamin D deficiency is common in alopecia areata and linked to its severity, standard liver tests don't effectively detect fibrosis in psoriasis patients on methotrexate, and bullous pemphigoid patients have a higher death risk but combination therapy may reduce it.
research The Current Landscape for Direct-to-Consumer Genetic Testing: Legal, Ethical, and Policy Issues
The document concludes that the fast-growing direct-to-consumer genetic testing market lacks sufficient regulation, posing risks to consumers due to questionable test quality and accuracy.
research Immune-Mediated Diseases of the Central Nervous System
The document explains the difficulty in diagnosing and treating brain diseases caused by the immune system and stresses the need for quick and accurate tests.
research Why Do Promising Therapies Stall in Development and How Can We Move Them Forward?
Most drugs fail to reach the market, but understanding their properties and using strategies like early toxicity tests and drug repurposing can help advance their development.
research Canadian Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery 41st Annual Meeting
Dr. WP Unger suggested that traditional strip harvesting might be better for hair transplants than Follicular Unit Extraction due to higher hair survival rates and less risk of a patchy look at the donor site.
research Correlation of monosynaptic field potentials evoked by single action potentials in single primary afferent axons and their bouton distributions in the dorsal horn
The study found that nerve signals are stronger when there are more connection points, but not necessarily denser, along the nerve's path in the spine.
research Fabrication of astaxanthin-loaded electrospun nanofiber-based mucoadhesive patches with water‐insoluble backing for the treatment of oral premalignant lesions
