This review discusses the physiological skin changes during pregnancy and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing these changes from pathological conditions.

This review discusses the age-related diagnostic challenges and comorbidities of polycystic ovarian syndrome and provides no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize the role of obesity in insulin resistance among affected women.

Healthy mitochondria in skin cells are essential for proper hair growth and skin cell interaction in mice.

This review discusses the molecular basis and clinical implications of primary generalized glucocorticoid resistance and hypersensitivity, attributing them to mutations in the human glucocorticoid receptor gene, and reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, young, nonobese PCOS patients showed significant insulin resistance, but no significant difference in endothelial function compared to healthy controls, suggesting other factors may influence endothelial health.

This article proposes criteria to differentiate between medicalization and over-medicalization, examining the consequences and ethical considerations of misidentifying medical issues, and suggests guideline questions to help draw clearer boundaries in medicine.

This study found that ionizing radiation primarily affects keratinocyte stem cells in the hair follicle, suggesting they play a central role in radiation-induced hair graying, rather than melanocyte stem cells.

This review explores the significant impacts of hormonal changes within normal physiological ranges and suggests examining low-dose effects from chemicals disrupting hormonal activity; it presents no new clinical results.

This review highlights similarities in the development of thymus and skin epidermis, reporting no new results; the authors emphasize shared molecular mechanisms despite different embryonic origins.

This case report describes an elderly multiple myeloma patient whose hair repigmentation was associated with lenalidomide use, suggesting hair graying may be reversible.

This article addresses the complexity of treating acne in female-to-male transgender adolescents undergoing testosterone therapy, highlighting concerns about co-administered treatments and their potential risks.

This study found that the loss of Msx2 in knockout mice led to phenotypes similar to Peters anomaly and microphthalmia, suggesting that MSX2 plays a critical role in anterior segment development of the eye.

This study found significant differences in gene expression between newborn and adult skin, with infant skin notably increasing processes related to ECM organization, cell adhesion, and collagen fibril organization.

This study found that keratin derivatives with functionalized thiol groups improved binding to both natural and bleached hair fibers, suggesting a promising strategy for enhancing keratin's durability in hair repair.

This study found that long-term dutasteride therapy in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia worsened erectile dysfunction, reduced testosterone levels, and increased blood glucose and lipid profile, indicating negative metabolic impacts.

This report describes a three-generation family with Cantú syndrome linked to a novel ABCC9 gene variant, featuring acromegaloid appearance and hypertrichosis without growth hormone abnormalities, and suggests a potential association with pituitary adenomas.

This article reviews the uses, mechanisms, and side effects of valproate in treating bipolar disorder, noting its first-line status for several manic conditions but also highlighting serious risks such as fetal abnormalities.

This study found that a genetic deletion causing truncated desmoglein 3 protein in mice led to severe pathologies, including cyclic hair loss and immunodeficiency, suggesting possible implications for human desmosome-related diseases.

This review summarizes evidence indicating that body image issues in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus should be addressed with the same importance as physical symptoms like pain and disability.

In this study, echocardiographic measures of cardiac function in women with polycystic ovary syndrome were found to be similar to those of healthy women.

This study found that the gene SRD5A1, associated with methylation changes due to early-life environment, may play a role in altering reproductive phenotypes in women by delaying pubertal onset and decreasing ovarian reserve.

This review discusses the impact of testosterone therapy on postmenopausal women's sexual function and well-being but notes a lack of long-term safety studies and debates on defining androgen insufficiency.

This study found that ginger supplementation significantly improved persistent hypothyroid symptoms and may aid in weight and lipid profile management in hypothyroid patients with normal TSH levels.

This study reported that the use of composite RGDmix hydrogel improved the survival and proliferation of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells and increased growth factor expression, enhancing wound healing through the RGDSP/integrin αv/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

This review discusses the role of androgens in women's sexual health and highlights the need for further research on androgen replacement therapy to optimize quality of life, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews infertility diagnosis and initial management for advanced practice clinicians, emphasizing the role of midwives and advanced practice nurses, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that plasma jets can effectively clean and oxidize human hair fibers, with argon/oxygen plasma having the strongest effects, suggesting potential as an alternative to peroxide treatment.

This study characterized the CYP154C7 enzyme from *Streptomyces* sp. PAMC26508, highlighting its ability to hydroxylate steroids efficiently, particularly androstenedione, and identified key amino acids important for substrate selectivity and catalytic efficiency.

In this research, animal tests confirmed that chromium supplementation effectively maintains glycaemic and insulinaemic balance and affects certain hormone levels, but the authors note that clinical evidence for chromium's benefits in PCOS treatment remains sparse and inconsistent, warranting further exploration.

This case report describes a rare instance of a patient with anorexia nervosa who was subsequently diagnosed with Cushing's syndrome, highlighting diagnostic challenges due to overlapping symptoms.
