The researchers reported a case of Beau's lines in a 65-year-old man, potentially linked to past severe COVID-19 infections, suggesting that identifying these nail changes might signal prior infection and increased risk of reinfection.

This study found that fermented red ginseng marc alleviated skin lesions, reduced inflammation, and demonstrated antioxidant effects in an AD-like mouse model, suggesting potential therapeutic applications for atopic dermatitis.

In this study, Pomeranians with non-illness, generalized alopecia did not exhibit adrenal or pituitary abnormalities, suggesting a breed-specific hormonal pattern as a potential cause rather than a functional adrenal anomaly.

This study found that fermented red ginseng marc alleviated atopic dermatitis-like symptoms in mice, demonstrating antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects similar to those of dexamethasone.

This review discusses androgenization symptoms like hirsutism, alopecia, and acne in reproductive-age women, focusing on diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, and highlights postmenopausal considerations, but presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that hucMSC-EXOs delivered via intratympanic injection effectively target vestibular sensory tissues, significantly reducing gentamicin-induced balance issues and high-frequency hearing loss, with some measured outcomes surpassing those achieved with dexamethasone.

This case report describes a middle-aged woman whose scalp condition, cutis verticis gyrata, was an early sign of systemic amyloidosis that went undiagnosed until after she experienced a stroke.

This study analyzed social media posts on alopecia areata treatments and found that while most reported perceived improvement, many treatments, particularly dexamethasone, were associated with underlying negative emotions.

Tofacitinib partially improved hair regrowth in a patient with severe hair loss.

This case study reports an Asian female with congenital adrenal hyperplasia presenting atypically with polymenorrhagia, who showed improvement with oral dexamethasone, despite no change in hirsutism or clitoromegaly.

A woman's hyperandrogenism was caused by a genetic mutation leading to non-classic adrenogenital syndrome.

Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in causing acne, and treatments like hormone control pills and hormone-blocking medications can help.

This study observed that women with PCOS had significant differences in body composition and some physiological markers compared to healthy women, which may have implications for pregnancy outcomes and long-term health risks.

The authors of this study concluded that higher calcium levels in hair may indicate early metabolic changes leading to osteopenia or osteoporosis in menopausal women, even before detectable by standard DEXA imaging.

This case report suggests that genetic evaluation for glucocorticoid resistance, such as the NR3C1 gene variant, is crucial for proper diagnosis and management of patients showing atypical signs of hypercortisolism.

This review examines the clinical features, causes, diagnosis, and treatment of Chrousos syndrome but reports no new experimental findings on this condition.

This study found that alkaloids isolated from Cucumis metuliferus fruit pulp demonstrated antiviral activity against IBDV in chicken embryo fibroblast cells and NDV in 10-day-old embryonated chicken eggs, while being non-cytotoxic.

This review discusses female hyperandrogenism, detailing diagnostic criteria and treatment options without reporting new study results; it emphasizes improving health and quality of life for affected women.

This study identified a new genotype, V281+I172N/V281L, linked to non-classical 21-hydroxylase deficiency, suggesting it should be considered in genetic panels for the condition.

This study developed a novel ferritin-based delivery system (LR@Fn) that effectively co-delivers RG108 and LLY283 for hearing loss treatment in animal models, reducing hair cell loss and synaptic damage more effectively than dexamethasone.

This study reviewed evidence suggesting that systemic corticosteroids, particularly in pulse regimens like dexamethasone and betamethasone oral mini-pulse, effectively slow vitiligo progression and support repigmentation, while offering a favorable safety profile compared to continuous therapy.

In this study, cedrol was found to reduce lipid accumulation in the liver and adipose tissues of dexamethasone-treated mice by antagonizing glucocorticoid receptors, suggesting its potential utility in treating dexamethasone-induced lipid metabolism disorders.

In a mice model of atopic dermatitis, this study reported that a formulated cromolyn sodium oleate gel significantly reduced scab size and provided better healing than dexamethasone, with fewer adverse effects.

This study found that therapy significantly reduced serum IgM levels in dogs with severe dermatitis, but not in those with mild dermatitis, highlighting the effect of treatment on immune response in severe cases.

This report describes two cases of glucocorticoid resistance syndrome highlighting genetic diversity; one patient improved with low-dose dexamethasone despite negative genetic testing, while the other is monitored with a novel NR3C1 variant.

This case study details the successful treatment of macrophage activation syndrome with dexamethasone and cyclosporine in a 36-year-old woman with adult-onset Still's disease, highlighting the critical importance of timely aggressive treatment.

In this prospective study of 135 women with hirsutism, researchers reported that treatment approaches varied, with oral contraceptives, dexamethasone, and metformin widely used, and emphasized a holistic approach including lifestyle changes and mental health support to effectively manage the condition.

This case report highlights that insulin resistance in PCOS can occur even in underweight patients, as demonstrated by a 24-year-old woman who improved her menstrual cycle, acne, and hirsutism with metformin and dexamethasone over 6 months.

This case report details a postmenopausal woman whose hyperandrogenism was attributed to ovarian stromal hyperplasia, ultimately resolved with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy.

This case report highlights that in severe illnesses like sepsis, myxedema coma can occur with less elevated TSH levels than typical for primary hypothyroidism, likely due to inflammatory cytokines affecting TSH secretion, even when central lesions are absent.
