In this study, the ChatGPT-5 model accurately answered 76.47% of questions on the Polish endocrinology specialty exam, surpassing the 60% passing threshold, yet its role in clinical decision-making remains uncertain, highlighting the need for further research.

This study found that androgenic alopecia is common in polycystic ovary syndrome, correlates with other hyperandrogenism signs, but not with increased biochemical or metabolic risk compared to PCOS alone.

This case study of a young Palestinian woman illustrates the diagnostic and treatment challenges of ovarian steroid cell tumors, highlighting the importance of detailed examination when hormonal therapy fails.

This case report highlights a Palestinian woman with a rare ovarian steroid cell tumor, underscoring the diagnostic challenges and potential for disease progression despite treatment attempts with various chemotherapy regimens.

This study found that polycystic ovary syndrome is the most common cause of hirsutism in premenopausal Algerian women, with recommendations for thorough endocrinologic evaluations.

This article reviews the social and functional impact of eyebrow loss and highlights the limited treatment options compared to scalp alopecia, but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses treatment options for androgenetic alopecia, noting that medical interventions like finasteride and minoxidil can halt and partially reverse hair loss in mild to moderate cases, especially when combined with surgery.

This study found moderate to poor agreement among observers assessing ultrasonographic features of polycystic ovaries, suggesting the need for standardized training modules to improve consistency.
