This review discusses the definition of polycystic ovary syndrome proposed by the AE-PCOS Society Task Force, emphasizing hyperandrogenism, ovarian dysfunction, and excluding related disorders, while noting potential variations needing more research.

This review concluded that corticosteroids improve muscle strength and function in boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy over short-term periods, but evidence on prolonging walking ability remains insufficient, and side effects are common.

This study observed that the majority of side effects from laser-assisted hair removal were associated with ruby and alexandrite lasers, particularly in patients with tanned or darker skin types.

This study demonstrated that stress-derived neurosteroid THDOC shifts from inhibiting to activating the HPA axis under stress, presenting potential therapeutic targets for stress-related disorders.

Hair cortisol analysis can help diagnose stress-related conditions but needs more refinement for widespread use.

This review discusses how ophthalmic findings can reveal key endocrine disorders and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the eye's role in diagnosing and managing systemic diseases like diabetes and Graves' ophthalmopathy.

This review outlines the challenges in diagnosing hyperandrogenism in women, focusing on its manifestations like hirsutism, acne, and virilization, but provides no new results.

This article reviews the hormonal and medication-related factors associated with acne development but does not present new research findings.

This paper reviews causes of hirsutism in women and emphasizes the importance of identifying underlying conditions for risk assessment, though it reports no new clinical findings.

This study concluded that a 26-year-old woman had autosomal dominantly inherited hereditary cortisol insensitivity, leading to increased adrenocortical cortisol and androgen secretion, which caused clinical symptoms unlike in her male relatives.

This review discusses the categorization of hair loss and increased hair density disorders related to systemic diseases and reports no clinical results, emphasizing the potential diagnostic value of history, physical examination, and histopathologic data.

This study suggests that Malassezia spp. overgrowth may contribute to pruritus and skin lesions in allergic cats, with antifungal treatments alone providing substantial improvements.

This review highlights that idiopathic hirsutism is characterized by local hyperandrogenization affecting hair growth, without other signs of hyperandrogenism, and shows no new results; racial differences in prevalence are noted but not in androgenic steroids.

This study found that normal mode ruby laser treatment for hirsutism is well tolerated and results in significant hair count reduction for at least six months, with multiple treatments offering greater effects.

This study found that fractional bipolar RF energy significantly reduced acne scar severity and improved skin texture, with high subject satisfaction and limited side effects.

This study demonstrates that glucocorticoid hepatopathy in Beagle dogs led to rapid and lasting clinical, morphologic, and biochemical changes, which may aid in the future diagnosis and prognosis of similar conditions.

This review discusses various skin lesions associated with endocrinologic disorders such as Cushing's syndrome and adrenal insufficiency, and it reports no new clinical results.

To diagnose Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, two out of three signs—irregular periods, high male hormone levels, or cysts on the ovaries—are needed.

In this study, PCOS was the most common cause of hirsutism among Turkish women, but about 17% had idiopathic hyperandrogenemia with no clear cause identified.

This review discusses the causes, clinical features, diagnostic approach, and treatment options for hirsutism in women, but reports no new findings.

This study reports cutaneous atrophy and alopecia in four patients following greater occipital nerve blockade with triamcinolone and lidocaine, suggesting that alternative steroids may reduce these side effects.

This review highlights that children with adrenal disorders may experience neurological and psychiatric symptoms, with potential long-term cognitive and behavioral effects from excess glucocorticoids.

Oral dexamethasone may help regrow hair in adults with alopecia totalis and universalis.

In this study, researchers developed an LC-MS/MS method to accurately quantify cortisone and cortisol levels in human scalp hair, finding that concentrations decrease predictably along the hair shaft, which could assist in identifying abnormal glucocorticoid exposure.

This review explores the relationship between androgenetic alopecia and metabolic syndrome, suggesting an association that supports considering cardiovascular risk assessments in patients with this type of hair loss.

This case study diagnosed a cat with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism, confirmed by specific hormonal tests and post-mortem findings of adrenal hyperplasia and a pituitary adenoma.

This study established a mouse model for Cushing's syndrome due to a specific Crh mutation, which may help explore the effects of glucocorticoid excess and evaluate treatments for corticosteroid-induced osteoporosis.
