In this study, researchers observed that chronic stress affected wild-derived house mice differently by sex, with females showing less weight gain and distinct behavioral changes, while males exhibited higher hair corticosterone levels, suggesting divergent coping strategies and implications for sex-specific stress assessment protocols.

This study found that 29.6% of patients seeking treatment for hair loss meet the criteria for hair-related body dysmorphic disorder, significantly higher than in general dermatology patients.

This study aims to compare the safety and effectiveness of bariatric surgery versus medical care on ovulation rates in women with PCOS and obesity, as current observational data suggests surgery may improve fertility prospects, but no randomized trial has yet confirmed this effect.

This study developed two highly reliable Arabic HRQoL questionnaires for evaluating quality of life in married and unmarried women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

This review discusses the roles of hormonal pathways in regulating male sexual function, particularly highlighting the impact of testosterone, and reports no new research findings.

This study suggests that post-finasteride syndrome and post-SSRI sexual dysfunction share potential etiopathogenetic mechanisms involving brain modulators, neurotransmitters, and gut microbiota, although more research is needed to understand these conditions fully.

This study reports that six shampoo brands in Saudi Arabia generally comply with the national specifications, demonstrating good physicochemical properties such as foam stability and pH levels.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome often experience isolation, helplessness, resilience, and grief, suggesting a need for better support during diagnosis and treatment to improve wellbeing.

This study identified six belief themes that may contribute to hairpulling behavior in women with trichotillomania, suggesting an important role for cognitions in this disorder's phenomenology.

This study suggests that behavior modification, semistarvation ketogenic regimens, and surgical therapy could be experimental approaches for different degrees of obesity, with their efficacy varying by the degree of weight excess.

This paper explores the mechanisms causing depression in women with PCOS and suggests that lifestyle modifications, such as dietary changes and weight loss, as well as cognitive behavioral therapy and antidepressants, can help manage PCOS-induced depression.

In this study, a multidisciplinary psychodermatology service treating children and young people with compulsive hair pulling reported varied success, with 45.4% achieving complete resolution and 36.4% seeing substantial improvement, suggesting a hybrid care model may benefit patient engagement and therapy outcomes.
