Products should be called 'sperm-safe' only after thorough, well-designed tests.
research Clinical features, with video documentation, of the original familial lewy body parkinsonism caused by α‐synuclein triplication (Iowa kindred)
The document describes a woman with familial Parkinson's disease due to a genetic mutation, showing severe symptoms and poor response to treatment, and suggests finasteride may help reduce symptoms in Tourette syndrome.
research Alopecia areata – hyperactivity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis is a myth?
The study found no significant difference in stress hormone levels between people with alopecia areata and healthy individuals, suggesting that the disease is not caused by an overactive stress response system.
research An animal study on the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma as a direct pulp capping agent
Platelet-rich plasma is as effective as mineral trioxide aggregate for pulp capping and may offer better cellular responses.
research A proteoglycan-based topical treatment for hair greying: in vitro antioxidant and pro-melanogenic effects
PP-PTKL may help treat hair greying, but more testing is needed.

research Air Pollution, Autophagy, and Skin Aging: Impact of Particulate Matter (PM10) on Human Dermal Fibroblasts
Air pollution (PM10) increases skin inflammation and aging by reducing collagen and may trigger a repair response in skin cells.
research Treatment of frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planopilaris: a systematic review
No effective treatment for frontal fibrosing alopecia was found, but oral 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors had the best response; for lichen planopilaris, topical corticosteroids were commonly used but had a high relapse rate.
research Non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency revisited: an update with a special focus on adolescent and adult women
The update highlights that non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia is common in women with excess male hormones, requires specific hormone tests for diagnosis, and has various treatment options depending on age and symptoms.
research 4D polycarbonates via stereolithography as scaffolds for soft tissue repair
4D polycarbonate scaffolds show promise for soft tissue repair due to their biocompatibility, shape memory, and minimal immune response.
research Recent advances in the molecular mechanisms determining tissue sensitivity to glucocorticoids: novel mutations, circadian rhythm and ligand-induced repression of the human glucocorticoid receptor
New findings explain how genetic changes, body clocks, and certain molecules affect tissue response to stress hormones.
research Drug eruptions in dermatology
Skin reactions to drugs are common and can be deadly, usually requiring stopping the drug and may be better prevented with genetic testing in the future.
research Immunological aspects and gender bias during respiratory viral infections including novel Coronavirus disease‐19 (COVID‐19): A scoping review
Men are more likely to have severe respiratory viral infections like COVID-19 due to hormonal and genetic differences, while women generally have stronger immune responses.
research The Role of Vimentin in Tissue Repair and Cell Growth
Vimentin is crucial for wound healing, cell growth, and managing immune responses.
research Two Hypomorphic Alleles of Mouse Ass1 as a New Animal Model of Citrullinemia Type I and Other Hyperammonemic Syndromes
Researchers created a new mouse model for studying Citrullinemia Type I and similar conditions, showing symptoms and treatment responses like those in humans.
research Evaluating hair growth promoting effects of candidate substance: A review of research methods
The document concludes that while lab results for hair growth promotion are promising, human trials are needed and better testing methods should be developed.
