This study found that diagnosing nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia in women based solely on serum 17OHP measurements can lead to false positives, suggesting the need for urinary steroid profiles and genetic testing for confirmation.

This review of DAVID syndrome cases found that ACTH deficiency often preceded by sinus infections or alopecia is linked to specific NFKB2 gene mutations, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis to prevent complications.

This case report describes a 65-year-old woman with childhood-onset growth hormone deficiency who developed panhypopituitarism, including late-onset secondary hypoadrenocorticism, affecting her respiratory and renal function.

This study reviewed the current understanding of congenital adrenal hyperplasia from 21-hydroxylase deficiency, highlighting the impact of universal newborn screening in reducing mortality and discussing ongoing treatment challenges and future therapeutic prospects.

This study found that diagnosing non-classical 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency solely based on elevated serum or urinary 5-ene-steroids may not be reliable.

This study explains that congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency presents as a continuous phenotype and involves symptoms ranging from virilization to accelerated growth in children, with diagnosis relying on clinical, biochemical, and genetic evaluation.

This review discusses the challenges in optimizing glucocorticoid treatment for classic 21-hydroxylase deficiency, emphasizing individualized care and the need for comprehensive management, but presents no new findings.

This report presents a rare case of suspected 3β HSD deficiency in an adult female with symptoms like male pattern hair loss and low testosterone, suggesting a non-classical presentation.

This case report presents a patient with idiopathic isolated ACTH deficiency and testicular germ cell tumor, with alopecia areata as an initial symptom, suggesting a potential link between these conditions.

Non-classical 21 hydroxylase deficiency is an underdiagnosed cause of female hair loss and polycystic ovarian syndrome.

This study used a glucocorticoid-injection model to mimic kidney-yang deficiency syndrome and reported symptoms related to hormonal imbalances in the hypothalamic-pituitary-target gland axes.

This study concluded that heterozygous NFKB2 mutations lead to a distinct and severe form of primary immunodeficiency with early onset, primarily T cell-mediated autoimmunity, and impaired B-cell differentiation.

This case study reports the clinical features of triple H syndrome in a 25-year-old man, including ACTH deficiency, alopecia universalis, and anterograde amnesia, which were improved with hydrocortisone treatment.

In this case report, a 36-year-old woman was diagnosed with iatrogenic Cushing Syndrome caused by topical steroid use, leading to skin ulcers, diabetes, and anemia. Her condition improved after discontinuing the steroids and receiving appropriate treatment.

This case study reports an Asian female with congenital adrenal hyperplasia presenting atypically with polymenorrhagia, who showed improvement with oral dexamethasone, despite no change in hirsutism or clitoromegaly.

This review examines the hormonal causes of hair loss, noting how androgen excess can lead to follicle miniaturization and linking estrogen deficiency and thyroid dysfunction to common alopecia types. It further discusses hormonal treatments such as finasteride, dutasteride, and spironolactone.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, but reports no new research results.

This review discusses clinical, hormonal, and genetic aspects of nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia and reports no new findings; the condition is highlighted as a potential cause of premature adrenarche and other symptoms in young people.

This review covers the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to P450c21, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses various skin lesions associated with endocrinologic disorders such as Cushing's syndrome and adrenal insufficiency, and it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, molecular genetics, and management of non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, with no new clinical findings reported.

This review discusses the evaluation, clinical presentation, and cutaneous manifestations of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, focusing on differential diagnosis challenges with polycystic ovary syndrome, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that plasma androgen levels tend to be lower than normal in patients with multiple pituitary hormone deficiencies, particularly those with ACTH deficiencies, and that human growth hormone treatment does not affect adrenal androgen secretion.

This study concluded that neither basal nor ACTH-stimulated 17-OHP concentrations effectively indicate carrier status for 21-hydroxylase deficiency among Slovenian hyperandrogenic women, recommending molecular analysis of the CYP21 gene for reliable screening.

This review discusses the clinical features, genetics, and treatment of 21-hydroxylase deficiency, a common type of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and reports no new research findings.

This review discusses the challenges in diagnosing different causes of adult androgen excess and outlines current screening and management strategies but reports no new findings.

This article discusses congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21 hydroxylase deficiency as a cause of ambiguous genitals in 46XX individuals and reports no new research findings.

A woman's hyperandrogenism was caused by a genetic mutation leading to non-classic adrenogenital syndrome.

This case report describes a 36-year-old female patient with panhypopituitarism, experiencing severe adrenal insufficiency and thyroid hormone deficiency, which led to electrolyte imbalance, QT interval prolongation, and ventricular tachycardia; treatment stabilized her condition, underscoring the importance of hormonal evaluation in arrhythmia assessment.

In this case study, a 12-year-old boy with Cushing's Disease experienced a complex diagnostic journey; ultimately, a left-side ACTH-secreting microadenoma was identified and treated with gamma knife therapy, normalizing hypercortisolism but resulting in growth hormone deficiency.
