This case report describes a 60-year-old woman with an ovarian Leydig cell tumor leading to elevated testosterone levels and hirsutism, highlighting the need to consider androgen-secreting tumors in similar postmenopausal cases.

Minoxidil can cause deadly skin reaction; monitor patients closely.

This article reviews the differential diagnosis of mild hyperandrogenism in adolescent girls, discussing potential causes such as PCOS and nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia, but presents no new data.

This study examines the development and application of cultured models for gallbladder carcinoma and highlights innovations and challenges in constructing effective in vitro growth models for cancer research.

This study found that anti-mullerian hormone levels are significantly elevated in infertile women with polycystic ovarian syndrome compared to those with regular cycles, suggesting it as a potential marker for diagnosing PCOS-related infertility.

This study found that combining MSM with MAP significantly enhanced hair growth in mice, comparable to or better than minoxidil, due to increased intradermal retention of MAP.

Finasteride interacts with terazosin, but not doxazosin; caution needed.

This chapter discusses Bayesian networks, their properties, and how they enable probabilistic inference with continuous variables, but it reports no new findings.

This study developed two sensitive chromatographic methods for determining finasteride and tamsulosin hydrochloride in pharmaceutical forms, validated against International Conference on Harmonisation guidelines.

This case report describes a rare instance of a patient with anorexia nervosa who was subsequently diagnosed with Cushing's syndrome, highlighting diagnostic challenges due to overlapping symptoms.

In this study, Chinese children with central precocious puberty receiving 6-monthly injections of triptorelin showed luteinizing hormone suppression and slowed development of sexual characteristics over 12 months, without severe adverse events, suggesting it may be an effective treatment option for this population.

This source reports that trastuzumab deruxtecan improves outcomes in HER2-positive and HER2-low metastatic breast cancer, emphasizing the need for careful adverse event monitoring, particularly for interstitial lung disease, and managing emetic risk to maximize benefits.

Doctors used a special blood sampling technique to diagnose a woman's rare ovarian tumor that was producing male hormones.

Terbinafine can cause hair loss.

This case series observed the efficacy of GnRH analogues in diagnosing and treating various forms of ovarian hyperandrogenism, illustrating their role in symptom management without surgery, particularly for benign conditions and refractory androgen excess.

This case report describes a 64-year-old postmenopausal woman with hirsutism due to a rare case of bilateral diffuse ovarian Leydig cell hyperplasia, leading to normalized testosterone levels and improved glycaemic control following surgery.

This review in SEDA Volume 40 summarizes new adverse reaction data for diuretics published in 2017, highlighting specific risks such as fractures with loop diuretics and hyperkalemia with spironolactone.

This study found that young women with PCOS exhibited altered white matter microstructure and reduced cognitive performance compared to matched controls.

This study validated a new RP-HPLC method for accurately determining doxazosin mesylate and finasteride in bulk powders and capsule formulations.

This article reviews the diagnosis of hyperandrogenism in PCOS, discussing its clinical and biochemical components, but reports no new clinical results.

This review found that 5α‐reductase inhibitors were associated with slightly increased rates of decreased libido, erectile and ejaculatory dysfunction, gynecomastia, and mood disorders compared to placebo, though their long-term effects remain unclear.

This study investigated the dynamic mechanical properties of fluid-immersed elastic hair beds under oscillatory shear flows, revealing a nonlinear response influenced by driving frequency and amplitude, which impacts mechanosensory signaling stability in biological processes like vasodilation and ciliary remodeling.

This study introduced a novel framework called SL-HyDE that significantly improved zero-shot dense retrieval accuracy in medical information retrieval without relying on labeled data.

This case report described a 43-year-old male with trichotillomania, experiencing severe alopecia and an ulcerated plaque, who improved with a combination of antibiotic, antidepressant, and psychotherapy treatments, suggesting that these interventions may benefit individuals with psychiatric comorbidities linked to this condition.

This report describes a complex case of postmenopausal hyperandrogenism with virilization and concurrent rare ovarian tumors, highlighting the critical role of interdisciplinary collaboration in diagnosing and managing such challenging scenarios.

In this study, researchers identified a novel genetic variant in the NR3C1 gene in a mother and her son that predicts a truncated protein, leading to glucocorticoid resistance syndrome with mild hyperandrogenic features, although no clear genotype-phenotype correlation has been established.

This study found that a catalytically active version of Vav2 significantly altered gene expression patterns in hair follicle stem cells in mice, with these changes varying over the animals' lifespans.

This study concluded that both pure-PRP and leukocyte-PRP injections significantly reduced serum CD 68 levels in knee osteoarthritis patients, with pure-PRP being more effective than leukocyte-PRP.

This study found that patients with systemic lupus erythematosus often experience oral mucosal pathologies, with oral ulcers being the most common, and observed significant associations between oral and systemic manifestations.

A postmenopausal woman's virilization was caused by a rare ovarian tumor that was hard to detect but was successfully treated with surgery.
