This review discusses the diagnostic criteria for polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no new results; the authors propose more robust criteria to address diagnostic variability and measurement uncertainty.

This review discusses various substances that can impact male fertility and stresses that products should be confirmed 'sperm-safe' through rigorous testing, not assumptions; it reports no new study results.

This study defined menstrual phase-specific reference intervals for circulating androgen levels in young women, highlighting that anovulatory females showed higher androgen, LH, and FSH levels compared to ovulatory females.

In this study, synthetic vitamin D3 analogs stimulated hair growth and formation of normal hair follicles in nude mice, unlike the natural form 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D3.

This study estimates the prevalence of hyperandrogenic states in late adolescent and young females, revealing that these disorders often begin at a young age.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome in the UK show significant differences in phenotypic and metabolic characteristics based on ethnicity, age, and obesity, influencing management strategies.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome had significantly higher serum and intrafollicular levels of anti-Müllerian hormone compared to normovulatory women, indicating a potential marker for ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome risk.

In this study, the researchers found that vitamin D and calcium signaling in keratinocytes are essential for normal skin regeneration after wounding, with deficiencies significantly delaying wound closure and re-epithelialization in mice.

This study established a mouse model for Cushing's syndrome due to a specific Crh mutation, which may help explore the effects of glucocorticoid excess and evaluate treatments for corticosteroid-induced osteoporosis.

This study created a humanized mouse model of hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets that lacks alopecia, indicating the mutant receptor's potential to explore the syndrome's characteristics beyond vitamin D binding.

This study found that while ethinyl oestradiol and cyproterone acetate effectively treated hirsutism in 90% of patients, 80% experienced relapse within six months after stopping treatment, suggesting long-term use is necessary.

This study identified novel selective androgen receptor modulators with enhanced in vivo pharmacological activity through structure-activity relationship analysis in castrated rats.

This study suggests that moderate elevated prolactin levels are unlikely to cause significant hair loss in women, but still warrant further diagnostic investigation to rule out a prolactin-producing pituitary tumor.

The researchers reported that among Mediterranean Sicilian women with PCOS, Phenotype B exhibited the most severe metabolic abnormalities, notably obesity and altered glucose metabolism, whereas Phenotype D showed no such issues.

This study found that higher Lnk expression in PCOS patients may contribute to insulin resistance by inhibiting insulin signaling pathways.

This review discusses recent advancements in female contraception and covers topics like adapted regimens, non-invasive sterilization, and the promise of new methods, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that growth in rats hindered by thyroid removal at birth can be normalized through the administration of thyroid preparations like thyroxine and artificial thyroprotein.

This study assessed various androgens' diagnostic effectiveness for hyperandrogenaemia in PCOS using ROC curve analysis, but it reports no specific new results.

This case report describes a woman with hyperandrogenism and menstrual disturbances, where an ovarian steroid cell tumor was identified and removed, leading to resolution of symptoms.

This study indicates that sheep prenatally androgenized with testosterone show wool fiber diameter changes that parallel the increased hair diameter in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

This chapter reviews the biosynthesis, mechanism of action, and therapeutic effects of testosterone and related androgens, but reports no new research findings.

This case study reported a postmenopausal woman with a testosterone-secreting ovarian tumor that was not detected through standard clinical or radiological examination but was found via biopsy.

In this study, researchers found that pregnant mice exposed to excessive androgen led to thinner ventricular walls and cardiac hypertrophy in offspring, suggesting that prenatal androgen exposure adversely affects cardiac health through reduced cardiomyocyte proliferation.

This case report concludes that a combination of physical examination, hormonal evaluation, and imaging studies is crucial for identifying malignant adrenal masses, with radical excision and adjuvant therapy improving patient outcomes.

This case report describes a 64-year-old postmenopausal woman with hirsutism due to a rare case of bilateral diffuse ovarian Leydig cell hyperplasia, leading to normalized testosterone levels and improved glycaemic control following surgery.

This abstract reviews the characteristics and health risks associated with polycystic ovary syndrome and does not report new findings, highlighting the syndrome's multifactorial nature.

This article provides an overview of treatment options for hirsutism, summarizing both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic approaches, but reports no new clinical results.

This study concluded that among men with normal testosterone levels, a small increase in serum dihydrotestosterone may reduce symptoms of hypogonadism, suggesting its potential diagnostic use after ruling out hypogonadism.

This review discusses the molecular mechanisms of androgens and androgen receptors in skin disorders, particularly androgenetic alopecia, and reports no new clinical results; it highlights potential areas for future treatment development.

This review provides a comprehensive overview of melatonin's physiological roles, effects, and clinical implications, but it does not present new experimental findings.
