This review discusses the impact of COVID-19 on the endocrine system and reports no clinical results; the authors emphasize the need to investigate endocrine damage during and after COVID-19 infection.

This study found that alopecia in captive Rhesus macaques may be linked to chronic hypersensitivity dermatitis with CD4+ cell inflammation, possibly influenced by altered housing and reduced pathogen exposure.

This study found that metabolic syndrome or related metabolic issues are common among the family members of women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Greek women with PCOS have a higher risk of metabolic syndrome and are more likely to be overweight compared to healthy controls.

This study identified polycystic ovarian syndrome as the most common cause of hirsutism among patients and found a positive correlation between hirsutism severity and free testosterone levels.

This study found that Super Merino sheep have a higher wool follicle density, finer fleece, and distinct gene expression compared to Small Tail Han sheep, which may inform future breeding and genetic interventions.

In this study, the researchers found that the choice of diagnostic criteria significantly affects the rate of PCOS diagnosis in adolescents.

This study reports that a 14-year-old female rhesus monkey with alopecia universalis was found to have a T-cell-mediated autoimmune disease similar to human alopecia areata universalis.

This study found that irregular menstrual cycles in Brazilian adolescents were significantly associated with a higher occurrence of metabolic syndrome and polycystic ovary syndrome indicators.

This study found that women with PCOS had significantly higher angiotensin converting enzyme activity and insulin resistance compared to controls, suggesting a correlation between these factors.

Some people with chronic hair loss may have thyroid autoimmunity.

This review discusses the potential role of the dietary antioxidant index in reducing the risk of various diseases, including obesity-related conditions, certain cancers, osteoporosis, and mental illnesses, but calls for further studies to confirm these findings.

This study retrospectively analyzed 3028 patients with telogen effluvium, finding that 6.2% had iron deficiency anemia and vitamin D deficiency was common, especially in women who were more often prescribed vitamin D therapy.

This study found that Greek women with classic PCOS phenotypes have a higher risk of metabolic syndrome and impaired glucose homeostasis compared to those with newer PCOS phenotypes.

This study found that normal ALT levels in women of reproductive age are linked with metabolic and androgenic abnormalities, suggesting ALT could be used beyond liver disease diagnoses.

This study reports a novel TRbeta gene mutation associated with resistance to thyroid hormone syndrome, which may contribute to various forms of alopecia in the affected family members.

This study suggests that hair loss in Chesapeake Bay retrievers is a breed-specific syndrome characterized by unique histological features and abnormal steroid production, possibly influenced by familial factors.

This paper presents a case study of a 21-year-old male with thyroid hemiagenesis, where the left thyroid lobe and isthmus are absent, and discusses the anomaly's potential clinical consequences based on existing literature.

This study found that the count of CAG trinucleotide repeats in the androgen receptor gene may be associated with acne in female patients without hyperandrogenism.

This case report describes a testosterone- and cortisol-secreting adrenocortical oncocytoma causing hirsutism in a 23-year-old woman, highlighting adrenal oncocytomas as an important consideration for differential diagnosis.

This case report identifies two specific mutations in the WRN gene in a 40-year-old female with Werner syndrome, highlighting the need for awareness of its early manifestations and treatment options.

This case report describes a novel integrative treatment approach leading to symptom improvement and significant reduction of thyroid antibodies in a young woman with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.

This study found an association between atopic dermatitis and autoimmune diseases in both adults and children, with women more likely to experience these complications, but further research is needed due to limited participant numbers.

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 review discusses current strategies for head and neck cancer treatment, highlighting the effectiveness of cisplatin in combination therapies, and notes increased toxicity with multimodal treatments but no overall survival advantage for doublet regimens; it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, a novel DCAF17 gene mutation was identified in a Chinese family, suggesting a potential role in pancreatic β cell dysfunction and diabetes development in Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome.

This chapter discusses hypothyroidism in dogs, highlighting that most cases are due to primary thyroid gland issues and that some breeds may have a hereditary predisposition; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found no significant difference in the prevalence of PCOS between women with and without PSD, although some clinical and blood parameters did differ.
