This case study reports a rare instance of RC11 associated with precocious puberty, severe hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes, suggesting a possible link to 11q-syndrome.

This study found that VDR polymorphisms, particularly ApaI and FokI variants, are associated with hormonal and metabolic disturbances in women with PCOS, with notable variations across different ethnicities.

This study reviewed Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome and found it consistently associated with hypogonadism, decreased IGF1, and frontotemporal alopecia, with additional symptoms like intellectual disabilities and diabetes in some patients.

This review found that lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, are beneficial for managing metabolic and endocrine abnormalities in obese patients with PCOS and suggests combining these with anti-obesity agents for enhanced effects.

This article reviews the historical development of understanding the hair growth cycle, particularly anagen, catagen, and telogen phases, and reports no new clinical findings.

This article reviews current evaluation and treatment options for androgenic alopecia in women and reports no new clinical results.

This review examines the causes, assessment, and treatment options for hirsutism but presents no new clinical findings, highlighting the need for further research on managing this condition.

Among women with hirsutism studied, this research found a high prevalence of acne, particularly associated with polycystic ovarian syndrome and endocrine changes.

Acne is a common skin condition linked to diet, hormones, and genetics, and early treatment can prevent scarring.

This study found that high prepubertal and pubertal androgen levels, originating from both adrenal and gonadal secretion, were negatively associated with adult height outcomes in males with Silver-Russell syndrome.

Hair loss in women often doesn't follow a pattern, isn't linked to age, may be genetic, and can be related to thyroid issues or other health factors.

This review examines metformin use in PCOS treatment, noting that while non-randomized studies show improvements, randomized controlled trials suggest benefits are limited and highlight lifestyle changes as potentially more effective.

Alopecia areata's causes are unclear, treatments exist but relapses are common.

This report on a 37-year-old patient found that trichorhinophalangeal syndrome type I is associated with hair abnormalities, including fine and brittle hair with altered biomechanical properties, but no treatment exists for the hair defects.

This review details the characteristics, associations, and differential diagnoses of vitiligo and reports no new clinical findings.

In this study on adult-onset, whole body Spry1/2/4 triple knockout mice, researchers observed endocrine abnormalities and no increased tumor incidence, despite similar food intake and motor function.

This article reviews the physiological changes underlying normal pubertal milestones and emphasizes the importance of understanding these changes to assess pubertal abnormalities, without reporting new clinical findings.

This review discusses PCOD, highlighting its hormonal abnormalities and contributing factors, such as lifestyle and genetics. The authors emphasized that lifestyle changes and medications are central to effectively managing symptoms and improving fertility in impacted women.

This paper summarizes proceedings from a PCOS Special Interest Group, reporting recent advances in the understanding of PCOS follicular abnormalities, associated cardiovascular risks, and dermatological issues, but does not present new clinical findings.

In this study, silver foxes given a yeast "filtrate factor" supplement retained their fur and normal pelts, while those without it experienced fur loss and thymus abnormalities.

This case report identifies an association between trichothiodystrophy and a urologic malformation with primary hypercalciuria, adding to the spectrum of TTD-related abnormalities.

This review discusses the etio-pathogenetic factors in benign prostatic hyperplasia and their role in the development of lower urinary tract symptoms but reports no new research findings.

This study found that 11-oxygenated androgens were higher in women with PCOS compared to those with idiopathic hirsutism, with no difference from controls, and higher Bisphenol A levels in obese women with PCOS may worsen metabolic issues.

This guideline from the Endocrine Society recommends using the Rotterdam criteria for diagnosing polycystic ovary syndrome and outlines first-line treatments, emphasizing hormonal contraceptives and lifestyle intervention.

This study found that women with PCOS had significantly higher levels of several autoantibodies compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential autoimmune component to PCOS that might aid in better disease characterization and personalized management.

This study found that young indigenous South Asian women with polycystic ovary syndrome are more likely to be centrally obese and have metabolic syndrome, particularly with increasing age, higher BMI, and acanthosis nigricans.

This abstract provides background information on polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no new research findings.

Hairless mice lack fur due to a genetic mutation affecting skin response, not hormone issues.
