research Fertility evaluation of infertile women: a committee opinion
The conclusion is that women under 35 should start fertility checks after 12 months of trying to conceive, women over 35 after 6 months, and women over 40 should start immediately. The checks should include ovulation status, reproductive tract structure, and male partner's semen evaluation.
research Dynamic interplay between IL-1 and WNT pathways in regulating dermal adipocyte lineage cells during skin development and wound regeneration
IL-1 promotes fat cell growth in skin, while WNT inhibits it and encourages scar formation.
research The developmental basis of fingerprint pattern formation and variation
Fingerprints form uniquely before birth due to specific genetic pathways and local signals.
research Genome-wide meta-analysis implicates mediators of hair follicle development and morphogenesis in risk for severe acne
Genetic variations affecting skin structure play a key role in severe acne.
research The genetics of alopecia areata: What's new and how will it help our patients?
New genetic discoveries in alopecia areata could lead to better treatments.
research Dermatologic Features of Classic Movie Villains
Most classic movie villains have skin conditions, unlike the heroes, which may cause bias against real people with similar conditions.
research Cysteine Prevents the Reduction in Keratin Synthesis Induced by Iron Deficiency in Human Keratinocytes
Cysteine helps maintain keratin production in skin cells even when iron is low.
research Genetic Basis of Alopecia Areata
More research is needed to understand the genetic causes of Alopecia areata to develop better treatments.

Testosterone replacement is recommended for men with low testosterone levels and symptoms of hypogonadism.
research Epidermal keratinocytes initiate wound healing and pro-inflammatory immune responses following percutaneous schistosome infection
Epidermal keratinocytes start wound healing and inflammation after schistosome infection.
research Optical hair removal
Optical hair removal devices showed potential for long-term hair removal in 1999.
research The cDNA-deduced amino acid sequence for trichohyalin, a differentiation marker in the hair follicle, contains a 23 amino acid repeat.
Trichohyalin, a hair follicle protein, has a part with repeating patterns of 23 amino acids.
research Levetiracetam in the Treatment of Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsies
Levetiracetam is widely used and generally well-tolerated for treating idiopathic generalized epilepsies, with tiredness as the main side effect.
research Surrogate end-points or primary outcomes in clinical trials in women with polycystic ovary syndrome?
The document suggests that clinical trials for PCOS should focus on meaningful primary outcomes like live birth rates, rather than less reliable surrogate markers.
research Skin inflammation activates intestinal stromal fibroblasts and promotes colitis
Skin inflammation can worsen intestinal inflammation and colitis.
research Distinct Phenotypic and Genomic Signatures Underlie Contrasting Pathogenic Potential of Staphylococcus epidermidis Clonal Lineages
Staphylococcus epidermidis A/C strains are more antibiotic-resistant and infection-adapted, while B strains thrive in hair follicles.
research Assessment of a Bidirectional Association Between Major Depressive Disorder and Alopecia Areata
People with Major Depressive Disorder have a higher chance of getting Alopecia Areata, and vice versa; antidepressants may lower this risk.
research Effect of shampoo, conditioner and permanent waving on the molecular structure of human hair
Perming significantly changes hair's molecular structure, while shampoo and conditioner do not.
research Regulation of human dermal papilla cell production of insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 by retinoic acid, glucocorticoids, and insulin-like growth factor-1
Retinoic acid, glucocorticoids, and IGF1 increase IGFBP-3 production in human dermal papilla cells, affecting hair growth.
research Scalp Seborrheic Dermatitis: What We Know So Far
Scalp seborrheic dermatitis is a common skin condition linked to oil production and bacteria, with specific diagnostic features and treatments like antifungals and corticosteroids.
