The new compounds may be more effective and cheaper than current treatments for conditions like baldness.

This review discusses the potential mechanisms by which androgens may elevate blood pressure, particularly through impacts on the renin-angiotensin system, but reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the complex effects of testosterone on the brain, emphasizing sex differences, and reports no clinical results; the authors highlight the inconsistencies in current study findings.

This review discusses the production, role, and measurement of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in various disorders of sexual development but does not report new clinical results.

This review discusses the hormonal impact on hair growth and the relationship between endocrine disorders and hair changes, reporting no new clinical results.

Androgens, like DHT, affect hair growth and treatments like finasteride may help.

This review discusses the mechanisms of androgenic alopecia and reports no new results; the development of a mouse model for further study is described.

This study found that during dialysis, lower plasma-potassium levels were associated with hyperglycemia, suggesting potassium correction is vital when using glucose-rich dialysate.

Hormones and genetics play key roles in male and female baldness, which can affect mental health and may be linked to other health issues.

This study found that the retinoid receptor and PPAR pathway are involved in hair follicle miniaturization in androgenetic alopecia, alongside androgen receptors.

This commentary discusses how common latent viruses might contribute to male-pattern baldness through mechanisms involving transcription factor deficiency and overexpression of specific proteins, based on a concept called microcompetition; it reports no new research results.

This study reports that diffuse alopecia of the scalp developed in some women during or after using oral contraceptive drugs, suggesting a potential link between the medication and hair loss.

Hormonal treatments can help with acne, especially in women, by lowering androgen levels or blocking their effects.

This paper discusses spironolactone as a potential off-label treatment for female pattern hair loss, noting its ability to halt hair loss progression and induce partial regrowth in a significant number of women but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that several compounds from Yangxue Shengfa capsule may promote hair growth by enhancing cell proliferation in vitro, suggesting potential use in treating androgenetic alopecia.

The authors suggest that male-pattern hair loss may be linked to neuropathy caused by tension on scalp nerves, potentially worsened by testosterone, and propose electrical stimulation as a temporary treatment.

This study established a predictive model for water intake in hair sheep, finding significant associations with dry matter and its intake but not with sex classes, suggesting a more accurate and efficient way to predict and manage water use in these animals.

Different drugs are used to manage breeding, prevent or end pregnancy, and treat reproductive issues in dogs and cats.

In this case series, researchers observed androgenetic alopecia in 20 prepubertal children with a strong genetic predisposition, despite the condition typically not occurring before puberty.
