This study developed a model using cardiovascular radiomics to estimate biological heart age, finding obesity and other health factors strongly correlated with accelerated heart aging.

This study observed that serum AMH concentration and LH/FSH ratio showed comparable diagnostic value for PCOS among infertile women, though neither is adequate alone for diagnosis.

This study found that Indian women with PCOS following a vegetarian diet had higher pro-inflammatory and lower anti-inflammatory marker levels compared to age and BMI-matched non-vegetarian counterparts.

This study suggests that the TNF-α system may contribute to hyperandrogenism, obesity, and insulin resistance in polycystic ovarian syndrome, independent of the C850T polymorphism.

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 study observed that women aged 63 with androgenetic alopecia had higher insulin resistance and more role limitations due to physical health compared to those with normal hair.

This review discusses the physiological basis, history, and current development of male hormonal contraception, highlighting its potential risks and benefits, but reports no new research findings.

This study found that among Filipino women, a modified Ferriman-Gallwey score of 7 or above indicates hirsutism and is significantly associated with elevated calculated free testosterone.

This study found that the prevalence of PCOS among Australian women aged 16-29 was 12% using NIH criteria, with fertility concerns being the most distressing aspect for those diagnosed.

This study found that metabolic syndrome or related metabolic issues are common among the family members of women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

In this study, HIIT increased adiponectin levels and improved cholesterol profiles in women with PCOS, but did not change leptin or vaspin levels.

This study found a significant association between female pattern hair loss and metabolic syndrome in Egyptian women, with waist circumference and hypertension particularly linked to the severity of hair loss.

This study found that lipin 1β expression in both visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue is significantly lower in PCOS patients compared to controls, suggesting its involvement in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance.

This study found that an 8-week low-starch/low-dairy diet led to weight loss, improved insulin sensitivity, and reduced testosterone levels in women with PCOS.

This study found that alopecia areata patients had increased insulin resistance compared to controls, suggesting a potential link between inflammation, stress axis activation, and insulin resistance in this population.

The authors concluded that increased expression of the HSD11B1 gene in adipose tissue correlates with obesity markers and predicts insulin resistance, but this association is independent of polycystic ovary syndrome when adiposity is controlled for.

This study found no general elevation in androgen levels among men predisposed to balding, despite a correlation with the free-to-total testosterone ratio; no link was observed with acne.

This study found that the gut microbiota composition in patients with post-finasteride syndrome differs significantly from healthy controls, with reduced diversity and specific microbial changes, suggesting a potential diagnostic marker and therapeutic target.

This study reports an increased frequency of the DI genotype of the ACE gene polymorphism among women with PCOS, notably in those with hyperandrogenism, and an association of the II genotype with insulin resistance.

This study found that men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia had a higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome and carotid atheromatous plaques than control subjects, suggesting a need for cardiovascular screening in this group.

This study found that increasing the follicle number criteria for diagnosing PCOS to 25 per ovary excluded some women who continue to show evidence of metabolic risk.

This study found that Roux-en-Y gastric bypass was effective in significant weight loss and improved lipid profiles in obese women during the first postoperative year, though some experienced alopecia, asthenia, dry skin, and cramps.

In this study using data from young women in West Bengal, India, the researchers identified that leptin signaling impairment, insulin resistance, and specific gene mutations significantly contribute to PCOS, with obesity commonly manifesting in affected individuals.

This review highlighted the pharmacological potential of Mor, noting its protective effects on the kidneys, liver, bones, nervous system, heart, digestive system, skin, and lungs, as well as its anti-obesity and anti-inflammatory properties, revealing areas for future research.

This study reported that pulverizing hair samples significantly improves the precision of testosterone measurement, with higher testosterone concentrations observed in men than in women.

This study found that policemen aged 40-59 years had a twofold higher prevalence of androgenetic alopecia compared to the general population, with obesity and sunlight exposure contributing to the risk.

This study found that women with nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (NC-CAH) reported lower sexual function and higher sexual distress compared to those with classic CAH (C-CAH), particularly among those showing signs of androgen excess.

This study found that serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D was inversely associated with serum ferritin levels in Korean men, positively associated in premenopausal women, and not associated in postmenopausal women.

This study found that men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia and certain risk factors may have worse gonadal steroidogenesis and an increased likelihood of developing gonadal dysfunction, suggesting a male equivalent of polycystic ovarian syndrome.

This study investigated the identity of Victor Vinnetou as Mbuyisa Makhubu using forensic facial comparison and DNA testing, but the findings were inconclusive, requiring further investigation.
