This article examines the morphological and physiological characteristics of eyelash follicles and offers clinical management suggestions for conditions like eyelash loss and trichomegaly, but presents no new clinical results.

This review summarizes the clinical and endocrinologic features of androgenetic alopecia and mentions potential treatments, but it reports no new findings.

This study developed a deep learning-based tool to quantify individual hair fibers in mice, revealing distinct hair phenotypes linked to hormonal, genetic, and age-related factors, and suggesting its potential for new diagnostic methods through hair analysis.

This study reviews polycystic ovary syndrome and vitamin D, reporting no new results, and notes the involvement of vitamin D receptors and insulin in ovarian function.

The researchers reported two brothers with a new variant of X-linked trichothiodystrophy associated with an RNF113A gene mutation, highlighting features such as intellectual disability and growth failure, but without previously reported endocrinological or genital abnormalities, underlining the importance of genetic counseling for such variants.

This review discusses clinical features, differential diagnosis, and treatments for female pattern hair loss, emphasizing the use of 2% topical Minoxidil and exploring alternative off-label therapies.

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

This article reviews the clinical and histological features of acanthosis nigricans and its associations with insulin resistance and other conditions, but highlights the need for more research on its classification, severity assessment, and treatment options.

This case report highlights how persistent hyperphosphatemia, albeit often overlooked, can precede clinical acromegaly symptoms in women, complicating diagnosis due to overlapping features with oral contraceptive use and polycystic ovary syndrome.

This review discusses how women with PCOS have an increased risk of insulin resistance and cardiometabolic features regardless of body fat, and calls for targeted prevention and management strategies.

In this study, metformin, pioglitazone, and ethinylestradiol cyproterone all improved various clinical features and quality of life in Pakistani women with PCOS, though no drug significantly reduced hirsutism.

This review discusses the latest findings presented at the 4th Intercontinental Meeting of Hair Research Societies, covering advances in hair follicle biology, genetic bases for hair disorders, and potential new therapeutic approaches, but it reports no original study results.

This study found that acne, hirsutism, and other skin conditions are prevalent among Jordanian women with polycystic ovary syndrome, often linked to specific hormonal imbalances and higher BMI.

This study found that participation in a training workshop can significantly improve the reliability of evaluating ultrasonographic features of polycystic ovaries, suggesting standardized training modules should be used for consistent diagnosis of PCOS.

This review summarizes the current knowledge on polycystic ovary syndrome, including its features, diagnosis, and treatment, and highlights the need for further research to fill existing knowledge gaps.

This study found that in men, elevated androgen levels can occur at any age, with older men potentially exhibiting increased total testosterone due to higher levels of SHBG, and younger men showing various clinical manifestations like acne and alopecia.

This study found that genetic risk factors for PCOS are linked to increased body mass index and earlier developmental milestones in childhood, indicating that PCOS may affect both sexes from early life.

This study observed that "physiological" hyperandrogenism due to elevated total testosterone was associated with a 23.5% incidence of arterial hypertension, unlike hyperandrogenism due to elevated DHT levels.

This study found that PCOS is common among Iranian women, with phenotypes involving hyperandrogenism exhibiting worse lipid profiles and higher rates of metabolic syndrome compared to healthy women.

This review outlines the challenges in diagnosing hyperandrogenism in women, focusing on its manifestations like hirsutism, acne, and virilization, but provides no new results.

This study provides further evidence for a genetic basis of PCOS, showing that polycystic ovarian morphology is a marker of inherited biochemical features in families with PCOS.
