This dissertation examines how The Body Politic newspaper shaped and challenged concepts of gay male masculinity and identity in Toronto's gay community from 1971 to 1987.

This study observed that perinatal androgen deprivation in male rats increased serum estrogen levels, which was associated with improved spatial working memory and increased body weight.

This study concluded that Micanfin did not cause leukotrichia in a Rottweiler dog, which was diagnosed with hypothyroidism after ruling out other causes of alopecia.

This study found that hair follicle characteristics vary significantly across different body sites, with the forehead and calf showing the highest potential follicular reservoirs, challenging previous assumptions about skin appendage distribution.

This review discusses the role of the enzyme Δ9-desaturase-1 in skin lipid regulation and whole-body energy balance in mice and reports no new experimental results.

This study found that mice lacking alkaline ceramidase 1 with elevated skin ceramide levels showed disrupted skin homeostasis, including altered hair follicle structures, increased water loss, and a hypermetabolism phenotype.

This study found that chronic low-grade inflammation exists independently of excess weight or obesity in women with PCOS, with notable increases in specific cytokines such as IL-9, MCP-3, and MIP-1α.

This study observed significant differences in immune cell infiltration and gene expression across different skin sites, with the back displaying higher tolerance-promoting immune mechanisms, which may enhance epicutaneous immunotherapy outcomes.

This research examined the ultrastructure of deer hair fibers and found significant variations in diameter, cuticle thickness, and intermediate filament arrangements among different fiber types.

This study analyzes the cultural ideology of female body image as portrayed in makeover TV programs, focusing on the impact of patriarchy, but it reports no new empirical results.

This perspective highlights how advancements in single-cell sequencing and digital pathology can help understand the complex mechanisms of immune responses, fibrosis, and tissue remodeling related to medical implants, aiming to address the challenges of implant-related tissue reactions reported in this study.

This article highlights the need for dermatologists to understand male-specific anatomical and physiological differences to optimize aesthetic treatment outcomes for men, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study demonstrated that testosterone treatment increases muscle strength and alters body composition in transmen, and the addition of dutasteride does not impair these anabolic effects.

This case report documents a 3-year-old guinea pig with hormonally active ovarian cysts, cystic endometrial hyperplasia, and bacterial endometritis associated with a uterine foreign body.

This article reviews the mechanisms controlling long bone growth and suggests that new research approaches are needed to explore the role of extrinsic signals and tissue interactions.

In this study, researchers evaluated the antifungal effectiveness of topical products on infected kitten hair, finding most were effective after one application, with enilconazole and lime sulfur showing residual activity; however, 0.15% ketoconazole with chlorhexidine had no such lasting effect.

This study concluded that PCOS patients, regardless of weight, have significantly lower serum amylin levels than healthy BMI-matched controls, while serum preptin levels did not vary significantly between groups.

In this study, elevated prolactin and DHEA-S levels along with reduced SBP were observed in fertile non-obese women with moderate body hair compared to controls, and ethynylestradiol plus desogestrel or cyproterone acetate treatment improved clinical outcomes by increasing SBP.

In this in vitro study, niacinamide was found not to stimulate VEGF synthesis across a wide range of doses.

This study examines the potential effectiveness of Barever natural hair inhibitor, which includes papaya and other herbal ingredients, in reducing hair growth permanently when applied after hair removal.

This review discusses lifestyle interventions to manage weight and reduce metabolic consequences in women with PCOS but reports no new clinical results, highlighting the need for more randomized studies.

This study identified 22 genetic loci potentially linked to body weight and wool traits in Ordos fine-wool sheep, highlighting six candidate genes that could be pivotal in understanding and improving these economically important characteristics.

This study explored how men's perceived height and androgenetic alopecia affect social and personality impressions, reporting a potential "attractiveness malus" but noting limitations due to an older dataset, selective sample, and cultural homogeneity among raters.

This study compared serum and hair steroid hormone profiles in adolescents and found that hair steroid profiling is a feasible, non-invasive alternative to serum analysis, with androgen levels in both mediums correlating more strongly with body size and composition in boys than in girls.

This study found that hair steroid profiling is a feasible, non-invasive alternative to serum analysis in adolescents, with androgen levels correlating more strongly with body size and composition in boys than girls.

This case report presents a rare subtype of hypomyelinating leukodystrophy linked to a PYCR2 gene mutation, emphasizing exome sequencing's value in diagnosing undiagnosed childhood HLDs with atypical symptoms.

This review discusses the adverse effects and societal influence of anabolic-androgenic steroid abuse, emphasizing its severe long-term health risks and calling for increased awareness and regulation; it reports no new results.

This study explored social perceptions of men with androgenetic alopecia, finding that increased hair loss was associated with perceptions of being older, less attractive, smaller, and less masculine, but more family-oriented and socially agreeable, highlighting how hair loss influences first impressions.

This manuscript discusses a large-scale cross-sectional analysis on addressing variance in responses to a set of questions by identifying underlying factors, but specific results are not reported in the abstract.
