This study found that introducing warning symbols and educational programs significantly reduced the erroneous crushing of medications in nursing homes.

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 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 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 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.

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.
