Human Clinical Trials Using Topical Bakuchiol Formulations for the Treatment of Skin Disorders: A Systematic Review

Skin disorders in women with poor obstetric history: < em > MTHFR < /em > polymorphisms and importance of preconceptional counseling
CONCLUSIONS: The increased prevalence of psoriasis and acrochordons among women with MTHFR deficiency underscores the complex relationship between genetic factors and dermatological health.
