This study identified a heterozygous de novo mutation in the ODC1 gene causing a new disorder characterized by overgrowth and developmental delay, and suggests that DFMO treatment may help manage elevated ODC activity and putrescine levels.

Hair follicles have unique proteins that vary by species and are influenced by nutrition.

This study found an association between total ovarian volume, pre-antral follicle number, total follicular volume, and some biochemical indices of PCOS, but not with ovarian stromal volume.

This study suggests that biotin therapy may be beneficial for individuals with partial biotinidase deficiency, as some developed symptoms later, which resolved with treatment.

In this study, hirsutism in women with PCOS was strongly associated with hyperandrogenism and metabolic abnormalities, while acne and androgenic alopecia were not effective markers for hyperandrogenism.

This study found that women with female pattern hair loss had significant hormonal imbalances, specifically involving adrenal androgens, suggesting these may play a central role in the condition's development.

Acne and hair loss are not good indicators of hormone imbalance in PCOS, but excessive body hair is.

This review summarizes recent research on the molecular properties and functions of L-PGDS and PGD2, but reports no new findings, highlighting their pathophysiological roles and guiding future studies.

Chronic telogen effluvium is a common hair loss condition with specific characteristics and treatment options.

This study found that androgenic alopecia is present in 22% of women with polycystic ovary syndrome and is associated with acne and hirsutism, but not with increased biochemical hyperandrogenemia or metabolic dysfunction beyond PCOS.

This case study of a young Palestinian woman illustrates the diagnostic and treatment challenges of ovarian steroid cell tumors, highlighting the importance of detailed examination when hormonal therapy fails.

This case report highlights a Palestinian woman with a rare ovarian steroid cell tumor, underscoring the diagnostic challenges and potential for disease progression despite treatment attempts with various chemotherapy regimens.

This study found that androgenic alopecia is common in polycystic ovary syndrome, correlates with other hyperandrogenism signs, but not with increased biochemical or metabolic risk compared to PCOS alone.

This study provides further evidence for a genetic basis of PCOS, showing that polycystic ovarian morphology is a marker of inherited biochemical features in families with PCOS.

This review discusses the pathogenesis of hirsutism and related diagnostic criteria for polycystic ovary syndrome in Korean women, but reports no new clinical results.

This study concluded that wedge resection in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome did not significantly affect androgen status or the biochemical features of the condition, though most regained regular menstrual cycles and some became pregnant.

In this case report, a 10-month-old ethnic minority infant from Xinjiang with acrodermatitis enteropathy improved clinically and biochemically after zinc supplementation, underscoring the importance of early genetic testing for SLC39A4 mutations and individualized zinc therapy in managing this disorder.

This study found that bioavailable testosterone and the free androgen index were significantly associated with various clinical and biochemical features of PCOS, including hirsutism, showing higher levels in PCOS patients compared to controls.

In this study of dogs with mucocutaneous lesions caused by various dermatological conditions, the researchers observed notable changes in haemato-biochemical parameters and trichographic features, including anaemia, elevated platelet counts, and significant telogen phase hair involvement.

In this study, researchers found that the evolutionary and structural features of the oFGF5 gene in sheep may influence hair follicle development and hair growth regulation.

This study found that while female pattern hair loss in young to middle-aged women was commonly associated with markers of hyperandrogenism and specific histopathological features, its exact causes and treatment remain unclear.

This study observed that among Iraqi women with hirsutism, most had hypothyroidism and elevated hormone levels, particularly DHEAS and testosterone, with acne being the most common associated clinical feature.

This article outlines the clinical features, evaluation, and treatment strategies for androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome, highlighting important diagnostic and management approaches but reporting no new research results.

This study observed that human hair keratin showed distinct morphological features depending on the dissolution speed, which could have potential applications in clinical settings for developing self-tendons.

This study reports that adding androgen deprivation therapy to salvage radiation therapy for patients with non-metastatic biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy improves progression-free survival, particularly in those with higher post-prostatectomy PSA levels.

This study evaluated machine-learning models to predict PCOS among reproductive-aged women in Bangladesh, finding that the XGBoost model achieved high accuracy (99.63%) and effectiveness, particularly when prioritizing clinical features over psychological ones in the predictive process.

In this study, hyperandrogenemia was observed in 78.2% of Greek women with polycystic ovary syndrome, with testosterone being the most commonly elevated androgen and acne the most frequent clinical feature.

This review discusses the various phenotypes and systemic manifestations of polycystic ovary syndrome, including metabolic, reproductive, and psychological aspects, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that self-reported androgen-driven phenotypes, like balding and finger length ratios, were not associated with cancer aggressiveness or biochemical recurrence in prostate cancer after prostatectomy.

This case report describes a rare and atypical presentation of primary hypothyroidism with myxedema in a two-year-old boy, highlighting the importance of recognizing unusual symptoms for timely treatment.
