This paper reviews obesity diagnosis and screening methods, emphasizing BMI's practicality in low- and middle-income countries, but provides no new clinical results.

This systematic review and meta-analysis found that male first-degree relatives of women with PCOS have increased rates of metabolic issues, hormonal imbalances, and androgenic features compared to controls, suggesting a male equivalent of PCOS.

This article reviews the challenges in diagnosing mild hyperandrogenism in adolescent girls, discussing potential causes like PCOS and treatment options, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the potential link between long-term transdermal exposure to sex hormones from antiperspirants and increased breast and prostate cancer rates, calling for further research to confirm this theory.

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

This review discusses the multifactorial etiology of hypospadias, including genetic predispositions and possible environmental factors, and highlights the need for further studies on genetic and environmental contributions to its increasing prevalence, without presenting new findings.

This review explores whether oligomenorrhoea in exercising women is a mild subclinical phenotype of PCOS or part of a spectrum of energy deficiency-related menstrual disturbances, without new clinical results.

This article discusses the importance of lifestyle management, like physical activity and healthy habits, in mitigating polycystic ovarian syndrome's impact and reports no new clinical findings.

This study observed that among women with polycystic ovary syndrome, those with the most severe phenotype showed the highest levels of metabolic disturbances, indicating the need for metabolic screening in these cases.

This study observed that patients with androgenetic alopecia in a western Indian population had a significantly higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome compared to a matched control group, suggesting that individuals with this type of hair loss may benefit from screening for metabolic syndrome.

This study found that severe androgenetic alopecia was associated with metabolic syndrome components in male psoriatic patients, particularly those over 59 years old, suggesting the need for regular screening.

This review emphasizes the importance of considering race and ethnicity-specific factors in diagnosing and treating polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and calls for diagnostic criteria tailored to these differences.

This case report highlighted a rare occurrence of both adrenocortical carcinoma and uric acid kidney stones in a 5-year-old boy, with hormonal levels and clinical symptoms returning to normal after treatment and no recurrence over four years, emphasizing comprehensive endocrine evaluations in pediatric ACC management.

This review discusses expert consensus on PCOS, emphasizing its impacts and supporting evidence-based treatments, while recommending further research into nutraceutical benefits for managing the condition; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that older age and obesity are predictors of metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance syndrome among infertile Vietnamese women with PCOS.

This study found that DNA methylation changes in granulosa cells from PCOS patients affect gene expression related to insulin resistance, fat cell differentiation, and steroid metabolism, suggesting an epigenetic contribution to PCOS pathogenesis.

The guidelines advise against using testosterone and DHEA in women for most conditions due to safety and effectiveness concerns, but suggest considering testosterone for postmenopausal women with low sexual desire.

This review discusses the creation of transgender-specific guidelines by WPATH and the Endocrine Society, based mostly on clinical experience, and reports no new results.

This study found no significant differences in metabolic characteristics between different phenotypes of PCOS or between women with PCOS and healthy controls among reproductive-aged Iranian women.

This review discusses the complex links between polycystic ovary syndrome, insulin resistance, and potential metabolic risks starting in adolescence, noting the need for early screening and treatment but reports no new clinical results.

This review highlights that obesity is linked to various hormonal imbalances beyond diabetes, prompting attention to related endocrine disorders in obese patients, including their prevalence, clinical presentation, and treatment considerations.

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 study highlights that polycystic ovary syndrome develops through genetic and environmental factors, with insulin resistance as a key mechanism, impacting the risk of metabolic and cardiovascular conditions.

This review discusses the prevalence and contributory factors of polycystic ovarian syndrome and reports no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize the importance of early detection through screening.

In this retrospective review, increased frequencies of certain HLA-DRB1 alleles and low vitamin D3 levels were observed in men with androgenetic alopecia, suggesting an association with immunogenetic factors and potential relevance for screening and treatment decisions.

This study reports that NIH PCOS is linked to more severe metabolic issues, including higher obesity and insulin resistance, compared to non-NIH PCOS phenotypes.

This review explores the relationship between androgenetic alopecia and metabolic syndrome, suggesting an association that supports considering cardiovascular risk assessments in patients with this type of hair loss.

This review discusses the association between various skin conditions and metabolic syndrome, reporting no new clinical results but suggesting a potential reciprocal relationship that warrants further investigation.

This review highlights the increasing association of metabolic syndrome with various dermatological conditions and suggests a link through chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and endocrine abnormalities, yet reports no new findings.

In this study, researchers observed an association between androgenetic alopecia and metabolic syndrome, suggesting potential benefits in screening individuals with this type of hair loss for metabolic issues to prevent further health complications.
