This study retrospectively analyzed 3028 patients with telogen effluvium, finding that 6.2% had iron deficiency anemia and vitamin D deficiency was common, especially in women who were more often prescribed vitamin D therapy.

This study found that several demographic, familial, lifestyle, and metabolic factors were independently associated with androgenic alopecia, differing by severity across various subtype classifications.

This study reports that women with hair loss had significantly lower levels of several biomarkers, including hemoglobin, iron, copper, selenium, vitamin D, vitamin B12, folate, and thyroid hormones, compared to healthy controls.

In this study, researchers found that certain vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms are significantly related to insulin concentration during a glucose tolerance test in young women with hyperandrogenism, but these polymorphisms did not affect bone metabolism or other biochemical parameters.

In this study, researchers found that biotin levels increase with age but not gender, and there is a notable negative relationship between biotin levels and triglyceride levels, suggesting biotin should be checked in patients with high triglyceride levels.

This case report describes a 14-year-old girl with coeliac disease who presented with severe hypercalcaemia due to a parathyroid adenoma, which resolved after its excision.

The research observed that among Ecuadorian Andean women with polycystic ovary syndrome, classical phenotypes A and B were more prevalent and associated with higher risks of insulin resistance and metabolic disorders compared to phenotypes C and D.

This study found that premenopausal women with non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia may have increased cardiometabolic risk compared to healthy women.

This study observed that female mice with disrupted 5α-reductase 1 showed increased insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis, suggesting altered glucocorticoid metabolism contributes to metabolic disorders.

In this case report, a 35-year-old woman was diagnosed with Sheehan's syndrome years after severe postpartum hemorrhage, leading to multiple hormonal deficiencies, highlighting delayed diagnosis's impact on treatment and quality of life.

This study found that testosterone therapy increased bone mineral density in older men with low testosterone, and combining it with finasteride may reduce prostate enlargement associated with testosterone treatment.

This case report describes a 27-year-old man hospitalized with fatigue, myalgias, weakness, profound weight loss, and abnormal liver function, leading to a diagnosis after chest imaging revealed pneumomediastinum.

This study reports that low levels of HDL cholesterol and IGF-1 were associated with a higher risk of hair loss in middle-aged women, but causal relationships remain uncertain.

This study observed that pediatric patients with diffuse, non-scarring alopecia had significantly lower levels of zinc and folate compared to matched healthy controls, suggesting a possible link between these deficiencies and hair loss in children.

This study found that finasteride does not increase the risk of high-grade prostate cancer but instead improves the prostate-specific antigen test's sensitivity to detect such cancers.

This study explores the medicinal and environmental applications of Physalis species, highlighting the wound healing properties of Physalis angulata L. and the antibacterial and antitumor activities of its fruit extracts.

This study found that men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia may experience less benefit from rosuvastatin treatment in terms of improving cardiometabolic risk factors compared to men with normal hair growth.

In this case-control study, researchers observed that women with female pattern hair loss exhibited significantly lower serum IGF-1 levels than controls, while IGFBP-3 levels showed no significant difference, suggesting a potential role for IGF-1 in the condition.

This research explores if COVID-19, analogous to SARS-CoV, may result in long-term pulmonary fibrosis in recovered patients, although current evidence on the persistence or resolution of lung changes over time remains unknown.

This review discusses the potential of single cell technologies to improve understanding and treatment of impaired wound healing and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the complex mechanisms regulating skin immunity to balance host defense with inflammation, but reports no new findings.

Postinflammatory hyperpigmentation causes dark skin patches and needs personalized treatment.

This review discusses developments in oral contraceptives, highlighting improved individualization, reduced side effects, and enhanced suitability for various women's health needs, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article outlines the clinical features, evaluation, and treatment strategies for androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome, highlighting important diagnostic and management approaches but reporting no new research results.

This study proposes the miR-22-5p-LEF1 axis as a novel pathway that may regulate hair follicle stem cell proliferation.

In this study, oral dienogest combined with ethinylestradiol provided effective contraception with a Pearl Index of approximately 0.2 and improved androgenic symptoms without significant metabolic effects.

This article discusses the complexities of androgen and antiandrogen therapies in women, detailing diagnostic measures, the effects on libido, and the potential benefits of new progestins with antiandrogenic properties, but presents no new empirical findings.

This review found that combined oral contraceptives and spironolactone are effective treatments for adult acne in women, but noted that oral contraceptives increase the risk of venous thromboembolism and require individual risk assessment before use.

This review highlights that Cyproterone acetate combined with ethinylestradiol is highly effective for treating severe acne and hirsutism in women with hyperandrogenism, and it also provides benefits for cycle control and mood improvement, according to the analysis of 78 studies.

This review discusses the effects and selection criteria of different progestogens in various treatments but reports no direct clinical comparisons of their metabolic effects.
