This study reported that women with polycystic ovary syndrome had a higher prevalence of impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes, with variations influenced by ethnicity and obesity.

This article discusses the role of estrogens in skin aging and reports no new findings; it highlights the potential of selective ER modulators to improve skin health without systemic side effects.

This study found that shorter CAG-repeat lengths in the androgen receptor may be associated with the development of androgen-mediated skin disorders like androgenetic alopecia, acne, and hirsutism in both men and women.

This study identifies a bipotent stem cell in adult hair follicles that self-renews and contributes to dermal sheath and papilla cell populations, potentially aiding hair regrowth after injury, disease, or aging.

The document concludes that the exact way alcohol causes harm to fetal development is unknown, but it significantly affects nutrient transport to the fetus and a safe level of alcohol during pregnancy is not determined.

This study found that women with androgenetic alopecia or alopecia areata have significantly lower serum ferritin levels than those without hair loss, suggesting a potential link between these types of alopecia and decreased iron stores.

This guideline review discusses updated evidence-based recommendations for managing tinea capitis, with a focus on accurate diagnosis, effective treatment, and prevention strategies, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, the researchers did not confirm previously reported links between AGA and smoking or benign prostatic hypertrophy, but found potential associations with alcohol consumption and lean body mass at age 21 that merit further investigation.

This review discusses recent advances in understanding gender differences in skin and their implications for dermatologic diseases, but it reports no new experimental results; ongoing research is necessary for translating these insights into clinical practice.

Humans lost body hair relatively recently in evolution.

This review explores the mechanisms of adult stem cell self-renewal, using skin as a model, and reports no new results but raises important unanswered questions in the field.

In this retrospective cohort study, women with polycystic ovary syndrome showed high incidence and age-specific prevalence rates of type 2 diabetes, myocardial infarction, and angina, particularly in those over 65.

Women with PCOS have overall higher body fat, not abnormal fat placement, and more insulin resistance.

Male hormones affect COVID-19 severity and certain drugs targeting these hormones could help reduce the risk.

This review discusses the potential role of vitamins and minerals in managing non-scarring alopecia but reports no clinical results; the authors advocate for further controlled trials to explore these relationships.

In this study, researchers used genetic data from over 52,000 men to identify over 250 genetic loci associated with severe hair loss and developed a predictive algorithm for determining hair loss risk.

This review provides a comprehensive guide to serum-free human hair follicle organ culture methods, highlighting research opportunities, standardization efforts, and potential applications without reporting new empirical findings.

This review discusses recent findings on the plasticity and regulation of epithelial stem cells and reports no new experimental results.

Obesity is linked to various skin problems and may increase the risk of skin cancer.

This review discusses sex-based differences in immune responses, focusing on genetic, hormonal, and microbiome factors influencing infections like COVID-19, and reports no clinical results.

This review discusses the functions and potential therapeutic targeting of TRP ion channels in the skin, noting their involvement in both physiological processes and various pathological conditions, but reports no new experimental results.

This article argues that androgen sensitivity could be a key factor in the severity of COVID-19, suggesting that trials with anti-androgen agents may be warranted.

This review discusses the effects of estrogens on skin aging and highlights the potential benefits of estrogen replacement therapy and selective estrogen receptor modulators for improving skin health in postmenopausal women, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have a higher prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and increased androgen bioavailability may be involved alongside metabolic factors.

This essay discusses the establishment, maintenance, and role of skin stem cells in tissue homeostasis, wound repair, and their relation to skin cancer, without reporting new experimental findings.

This study highlights the potential increased frequency of advanced liver disease in obese PCOS patients with NAFLD and underscores the importance of lifestyle modifications as initial treatment.

This study found that young indigenous South Asian women with polycystic ovary syndrome are more likely to be centrally obese and have metabolic syndrome, particularly with increasing age, higher BMI, and acanthosis nigricans.

In this study, high-dose dutasteride significantly reduced several core symptoms of PMDD compared to placebo, supporting the role of neurosteroids in this condition.

Hair loss linked to higher heart disease risk in both men and women.

This study observed that 62% of premenopausal women with female pattern hair loss reported improvement when treated with oral finasteride and an oral contraceptive containing drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol.
