This study found that transgender men using testosterone therapy had higher rates of acne and increased body hair growth, resembling male patterns more closely than those not on testosterone.

This review summarizes recent advances in Treg cell biology, focusing on Foxp3's role in immune regulation and therapeutic reprogramming for immune dysregulatory disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that testosterone administration reduced the expression of uterine receptivity molecules in ovariectomized rats, which may negatively affect early pregnancy establishment and female fertility.

Targeted testing for telogen effluvium patients can save healthcare costs.

This study found that serum 3α-androstanediol glucuronide levels were higher in Indian women with female pattern hair loss and correlated with the severity of the condition.

This study suggests that analyzing hair samples with a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometric assay may offer a reliable method to measure average quarterly vitamin D levels, potentially complementing blood tests.

This study found that testosterone enhances insulin secretion in human pancreatic islets by being converted into DHT and E2, processes that are necessary for this effect.

This study found that free testosterone levels were 29% higher with the levonorgestrel implant than with the DMPA injection, which may impact sexual function, mood, and side effects like acne.

This study found that women with female pattern androgenic alopecia have significantly higher levels of certain androgens and androgen sulfates compared to normal premenopausal women, suggesting markers for diagnosis and treatment efficacy.

The drug TGU was ineffective against small cell lung cancer and caused significant bone marrow suppression.

This study found that low serum ferritin levels were significantly associated with chronic telogen effluvium in adult menstruating females, suggesting that serum ferritin is a better indicator of low iron stores than hemoglobin levels in this condition.

This study found that thymus transplantation in infants with FOXN1 deficiency led to T-cell reconstitution and functional immunity, resolving serious infections and cytopenias.

This study found that diagnosing non-classical 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency solely based on elevated serum or urinary 5-ene-steroids may not be reliable.

This study found that intermittent treatment with FTI lonafarnib and sulforaphane may be a promising therapeutic approach for children with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome, as it improved the cellular phenotype.

This study found that a self-assessed modified Ferriman-Gallwey score of 10 or higher indicates excess body hair, and suggests androstenedione measurement should accompany testosterone when evaluating hyperandrogenism.

This study suggests that finasteride at doses of 5 mg/kg BW or higher may adversely affect spermatogenesis and male fertility in NMRI mice.

In this study, nearly half of the female patients with androgenetic alopecia reported symptoms of hormonal disorders, but hormone test results did not show significant abnormalities.

Vitamin D deficiency is common in temporary hair loss, and stress is often a suspected cause.

This study observed that a majority of female patients with chronic telogen effluvium had low serum ferritin levels without signs of clinical anemia, suggesting a possible link between low iron stores and hair loss.

In this case study, a 41-year-old woman with a solitary thyroid nodule was found to have a benign colloid goiter after biopsy, and she successfully underwent right hemithyroidectomy with good postoperative recovery and management of symptoms using various supportive medications.

In this study, FCE 28260 showed greater potency than finasteride in inhibiting 5α-reductase enzymes and reducing prostate DHT levels in rats.

In this study, researchers found varying levels of multiple autoantibody types among thyroid disorder patients, with 84.84% of those with immunological hypothyroidism reporting symptoms like weight gain and lethargy, whereas 81.81% of those with immune hyperthyroidism experienced hair loss.

This study found significant gender differences in total testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate levels among noncritical COVID-19 patients, which were associated with severity markers in males.

In this study of healthy men, low levels of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone were associated with higher body mass index, fat content, and insulin resistance, but their effects on lipid and glucose metabolism were similar in quality.

This study observed that combined treatment with thyroxine and hydrocortisone increased lipid accretion and fat cell development in hypophysectomized fetal pigs, suggesting a key role of these hormones in fetal adipogenesis.

This study concluded that intraprostatic injection with drugs and high frequency thermotherapy was more effective for treating prostatitis after TURP than a combination of antibiotherapy, tamsulosin, and finasteride.

This case report describes a 60-year-old woman with an ovarian Leydig cell tumor leading to elevated testosterone levels and hirsutism, highlighting the need to consider androgen-secreting tumors in similar postmenopausal cases.

This letter discusses how outdated measurement technology may obscure evidence of essential fatty acid deficiency in low-fat diet patients, potentially leading to undiagnosed EFA insufficiencies related to heart disease.

In this study, researchers found that the thyroxine receptor agonist TDM10842 accelerated the onset of anagen, a hair growth phase, in C3H mice, potentially through activation of the Wnt/beta-catenin and Hedgehog pathways, with Pclaf playing a key role in this process.

This study developed a method using LC/APCI-MS to measure the activity of steroid 5α-reductase, applied to kinetic studies and inhibitory tests with Finasteride in a rat prostatic enzyme model.
