research Effects of lifelong testosterone exposure on health and disease using Mendelian randomization
Higher testosterone levels can increase the risk of certain diseases like type 2 diabetes in women and prostate cancer in men, but can also protect against autoimmune diseases and hair loss. It also affects body fat and bone density.
research A Comparison of Minoxidil and Hydralazine in Non-azotemic Hypertensives
Minoxidil lowers blood pressure more effectively but has more side effects, so try hydralazine first.
research Metabolic syndrome – a new definition and management guidelines A joint position paper by the Polish Society of Hypertension, Polish Society for the Treatment of Obesity, Polish Lipid Association, Polish Association for Study of Liver, Polish Society of Family Medicine, Polish Society of Lifestyle Medicine, Division of Prevention and Epidemiology Polish Cardiac Society, “Club 30” Polish Cardiac Society, and Division of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Society of Polish Surgeons
The Polish medical societies have redefined metabolic syndrome and recommend lifestyle changes, certain medications, and possibly bariatric surgery for treatment. They also discuss managing related health conditions.
research Hair growth-promoting effects of Sargassum glaucescens oligosaccharides extracts
Extracts from a type of brown seaweed can help promote hair growth.
research Androgenetic alopecia as an early marker for hypertension
Men with androgenetic alopecia may have higher blood pressure, suggesting early screening for hypertension.
research A Fast and Efficient UPLC-ESI-MS/MS Method for Detection, Identification, and Quantitative Analysis of Bioactive Substances in Medicinal Herbal Extracts of Preventing Hair Loss
Researchers developed a quick and sensitive method to identify and measure hair growth-promoting substances in a herbal mix.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Androgenic modulation of arterial baroreceptor dysfunction and neuroinflammation in endotoxic male rats
Testosterone affects blood pressure control and inflammation in male rats with endotoxic shock, and blocking certain hormones may help treat it.
research Author response: Effects of lifelong testosterone exposure on health and disease using Mendelian randomization
Long-term high testosterone levels can improve bone density and reduce body fat but may increase the risk of prostate cancer and high blood pressure.
research Determination of finasteride in human plasma by liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry with flow rate gradient
Researchers developed a quick and sensitive way to measure finasteride in blood using a small sample size.
research Dietary Patterns and Metabolic and Hormonal Parameters in Women with Suspected PCOS
Long-term healthy eating lowers testosterone and improves health in women with suspected PCOS.
research A Large Benign Adrenocortical Adenoma Cosecreting Testosterone and Cortisol
A woman's rare benign tumor that released both cortisol and testosterone was successfully removed, improving her health.
research 4. Bullous/Mucous Membrane
High blood pressure drugs often cause skin lupus, stopping the drug usually helps. A vaccine helps prevent genital herpes and HPV-16. More frequent light therapy clears psoriasis faster. No link was found between low iron and chronic hair loss.
research Cause of Androgenic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness may be caused by scalp pressure on hair follicles, which increases with age and leads to a cycle of hair loss. This process is not directly determined by genes.
research Micro-mechanical approaches to characterize tip growth: Insights into root hair elasto-viscoplastic properties
Root hair growth mechanics depend on turgor pressure and cell wall properties.
research Adrenal causes of endocrine hypertension in childhood or adolescence
Adrenal disorders often cause high blood pressure in young people.
research Agent: Minoxidil
Minoxidil helps lower severe blood pressure and promotes hair growth but can have serious side effects and must be used continuously.
research Pharmacological evidences for the extracts and secondary metabolites from plants of the genus Hibiscus
Hibiscus plant extracts may have health benefits like lowering blood pressure and protecting the heart.
research K channel therapeutics at the bedside
Potassium channel openers are effective in treating heart conditions, high blood pressure, pulmonary diseases, bladder issues, and hair loss, but more selective drugs are needed.
research Male, Female, Other: Transgender and the Impact in Primary Care
Healthcare providers need better education and resources to give competent and sensitive care to transgender patients.
research Micro-mechanical approaches to characterize tip growth: Insights into Root Hair Elasto-Viscoplastic Properties
Root hair stiffness is mainly influenced by tip compression and turgor pressure.
research Cardiometabolic risks in polycystic ovary syndrome: long-term population-based follow-up study
Young women with PCOS have a higher risk of high blood pressure and metabolic syndrome, but these risks may decrease after age 40.
research Relationship between Serum Concentrations, Hemodynamic Effects, and Cardiovascular Lesions in Dogs Treated with Minoxidil
Higher minoxidil doses in dogs cause faster heart rate, lower blood pressure, and heart issues.
research Standards of Care for the Health of Transsexual, Transgender, and Gender-Nonconforming People, Version 7
The guidelines recommend informed consent for gender-affirming treatments and stress the importance of personalized, culturally sensitive care for transgender individuals.
research Enzymatic and non-enzymatic sulfation mechanisms in the biological actions of minoxidil
Minoxidil needs activation to work, and minoxidil sulfate helps with hair growth and blood pressure.
research Significant effects of mild endogenous hormonal changes in humans: considerations for low-dose testing.
Small changes in hormones can significantly impact health, showing the importance of sensitive testing for chemicals that disrupt hormones.
research Simultaneous determination of minoxidil and minoxidil sulfate by high-performance liquid chromatography with UV-detection and its applications
The study developed a method to detect minoxidil and its sulfate form, found that minoxidil sulfate is temperature-sensitive, and identified a way to potentially increase its stability for hair loss treatment.
research Significant Effects of Mild Endogenous Hormonal Changes in Humans: Considerations for Low-Dose Testing
