In this study, prolonged intravenous Fenoterol infusion was associated with intensive hair growth in most patients, although hormonal changes typically linked to such effects were not observed.

This study found trilostane to be an effective and generally safe treatment for improving symptoms in dogs with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism.

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.

Testosterone needs to be converted to DHT to reduce stress response in male rats.

This case study reports that hormonal imbalances in a young boy with precocious pseudopuberty returned to normal after the removal of a testicular interstitial cell tumor, with normal spontaneous puberty following.

This case report describes a challenging diagnosis of Cushing’s syndrome using endocrine tests and imaging, which ultimately identified an adrenal etiology. Successful treatment involved a non-invasive desmopressin stimulation test and right adrenalectomy, leading to improvement in symptoms and health outcomes for the patient.

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.

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

This review discusses the genetics and variable phenotypic expression of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and reports no new clinical results; the authors call for further research on long-term health impacts and treatment strategies.

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 article discusses the challenges in diagnosing non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia and emphasizes personalized treatment approaches, reporting no new clinical results.

This article reviews the evidence regarding the role of sex hormones in occult hyperadrenocorticism and reports no new findings, highlighting the unproven nature of their involvement.

This study concluded that antimullerian hormone levels are not generally effective for distinguishing late onset congenital adrenal hyperplasia from all hyperandrogenic polycystic ovary syndrome subtypes, except one specific subtype.

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 review discusses androgenization symptoms like hirsutism, alopecia, and acne in reproductive-age women, focusing on diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, and highlights postmenopausal considerations, but presents no new clinical findings.

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 case report details a 7-year-old Shih Tzu with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism, where initial trilostane treatment did not improve skin conditions, necessitating a dosage increase.

This article discusses various causes of hyperandrogenism in women and highlights diagnostic considerations for conditions such as PCOS, NCCAH, Cushing's disease, and androgen-secreting tumors, without reporting new clinical results.

In this study, a dog with canine pattern alopecia showed improved multifocal alopecia and general hair regrowth after 3 months of melatonin treatment.

This study found that in patients with nonclassical 21-hydroxylase deficiency, genotypes do not reliably predict the severity of hyperandrogenic symptoms, suggesting other genetic factors may influence the phenotype.

This study reported that ketoconazole may effectively normalize menstruation and reduce testosterone and hair growth in women with ovarian hyperandrogenism, though its safety needs further evaluation.

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.

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.

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 describes a rare occurrence of giant bilateral adrenal myelolipomas in a 28-year-old female with CAH, emphasizing that large, hormonally active, or painful myelolipomas should be surgically removed.

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 covers the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency and reports no new findings.

This study describes the first case of female pseudohermaphroditism due to a novel homozygous glucocorticoid receptor gene mutation, indicating possible pre- and postnatal virilization in affected females.

This study found that surgical removal of adrenal glands resolved clinical signs of adrenocortical tumors and hyperplasias in ferrets, but cortisol levels were not excessively high.

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