Sex hormones affect reproduction, sexual development, and oral health, and it's important for dental practitioners to understand their effects and interactions.

This chapter reviews pharmacodynamic evaluations in endocrine disorders focusing on oral antidiabetics, insulin analogues, and hormone interactions, but reports no new results.

This review found that fulvestrant is well tolerated in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive advanced breast cancer, showing lower incidence of joint disorders than non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors.

This article reviews various strategies, primarily developed by the Turin University Pharmaceutical Technology group, for increasing entrapment efficiency of hydrophilic molecules in nanoparticulate systems and reports no clinical results.

This article discusses the need for rational strategies in developing hair loss drugs targeting specific events in hair follicle cycling, reporting no clinical findings but emphasizing the importance of understanding molecular controls.

This article reviews recent advances in the synthesis of oxasteroids and reports no new experimental results.

Minoxidil effectively treats hair loss, with better results in women.

This retrospective study found that serum hormone levels and MRI detection of ovarian nodules contributed to distinguishing virilizing ovarian tumors from ovarian stromal hyperthecosis in postmenopausal women, though histopathology remains crucial for diagnosis.

This review discusses androgen manipulation strategies for conditions like benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostatic carcinoma but reports no new clinical results.

This chapter reviews selective androgen receptor modulators, discussing their therapeutic potential beyond current androgen applications, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that polymeric micelle nanocarriers delivered pharmacologically relevant amounts of spironolactone to the epidermis and upper dermis, with higher delivery to pilosebaceous units, suggesting potential for treating glucocorticoid-induced impaired wound healing and pilosebaceous androgen-related skin diseases.

This review discusses Charnoly bodies as biomarkers of cell injury and potential therapeutic targets in neurodegenerative, cardiovascular, and cancer treatments but reports no new clinical results.

The meeting discussed medical findings, including benefits of certain treatments for cancer and heart conditions, and highlighted issues like poor adherence to preventive measures and skill gaps among interns.

This paper reviews the links between COVID-19 infection and cutaneous, oral, and periodontal lesions but reports no new clinical findings.

In this pilot study, topical latanoprost acid was observed to increase hair count and improve hair follicle structure in women with androgenetic alopecia, with no serious adverse events, suggesting potential for further investigation to confirm its efficacy and safety.

In this study, TENS of the T6 dermatome over a longer term was explored for its effects on weight, blood pressure, heart rate, and appetite-regulating hormones in obese subjects with moderate obstructive sleep apnea; however, results are not reported in the abstract.

This review discusses the side effects of gender-affirming hormone therapy and reports no clinical results; it highlights the potential to reduce adverse effect risk factors with healthy eating guidelines.

This study found that tideglusib delivered topically in a bacterial cellulose hydrogel showed positive effects on the wound healing of rat palatal mucosa, as observed through macroscopic, histomorphometric, and immunohistochemical evaluations.

This case report describes a 77-year-old woman with female pattern hair loss and elevated testosterone levels, who showed no improvement with minoxidil and lacked adrenal tumors on imaging.

This case report describes a postmenopausal woman with hirsutism and hair loss attributed to ovarian stromal hyperplasia; surgical removal of the ovaries normalized testosterone levels and resolved symptoms.

This review investigates the relationship between certain gene polymorphisms associated with obesity (FTO and MC4R) and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, reporting no new results but suggesting a potential genetic link.

In this case study, laparoscopic bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was associated with reduced androgen levels and partial reversal of male-pattern hair loss in a postmenopausal woman with ovarian hyperandrogenism.

This study found that flutamide at 250 mg daily modestly improved hair thinning in premenopausal women with hyperandrogenic alopecia over one year, while cyproterone acetate and finasteride were not effective.

This study found that LGR5 is uniquely expressed in human corneal endothelial cells and maintains endothelial cell phenotypes while inhibiting mesenchymal transformation through the Wnt pathway.

This study found that newly synthesized steroidal trienones demonstrated stronger 5α-reductase inhibitory activity compared to dienones in various biological models, suggesting potential for developing enhanced antiandrogenic drugs.

The study found that daily use of bimatoprost ophthalmic solution 0.03% for one year was effective in improving eyelash growth and patient satisfaction in both idiopathic and chemotherapy-induced hypotrichosis, with no serious drug-related adverse events reported.

This study reports that newly synthesized steroidal trienones exhibit higher 5α-reductase inhibitory activity than dienones in various biological models, suggesting potential use in treating androgen-dependent diseases.

This study found that variations in the androgen receptor gene influenced memory function in women, with GGN repeat polymorphisms significantly affecting logical memory performance only in females.

This study involving male patients with androgenic alopecia found that a higher baseline zinc plasma level, specifically above 10 µmol/L, may predict the success of treatment with 5% topical minoxidil, correlating with increased hair density and diameter in the parietal area.

This study suggests that extracellular vesicles from prostate cancer cells could aid in identifying tumor heterogeneity and serve as biomarkers, while also playing a role in SARS-CoV-2 infection in nasopharyngeal mucus.
