This review discusses management strategies for sexual side effects of aromatase inhibitors in postmenopausal breast cancer patients and reports no original clinical findings.

This case report describes a 70-year-old woman whose obstructive sleep apnea resolved after the removal of a testosterone-producing ovarian tumor, supporting the theory that testosterone influences OSA in women.

This article discusses the challenges in diagnosing female androgen insufficiency syndrome due to unreliable testosterone measurement methods but notes symptom improvement with testosterone therapy, emphasizing the need for women-specific formulations and safety guidelines.

This study in mice found that overexpressing Sonic Hedgehog in basal cells caused skin anomalies and a lack of certain hair fibers, underscoring its key role in hair follicle development.

This study found that illness perception, as measured by the Revised Illness Perception Questionnaire, was significantly associated with health-related quality of life in patients with primary cutaneous T- and B-cell lymphomas.

This study found that applying a topical inhibitor of TGF-β1 may enhance scar maturation and improve the appearance of hypertrophic scars in a nude mouse model after two weeks.

This review found limited evidence on the effectiveness of different antiandrogens for feminization in transgender women, suggesting cyproterone acetate, leuprolide, and medroxyprogesterone acetate may better suppress testosterone than spironolactone or estradiol alone.

This study found that conditioned medium from keratinocytes improved the hair-inductive properties of cultured dermal papilla cells, suggesting potential for enhancing hair follicle regeneration.

This study concluded that MEX3A is critical for maintaining Lgr5+ intestinal stem cells by regulating the PPARγ pathway, impacting intestinal homeostasis during postnatal development in mice.
