This review highlights that children with adrenal disorders may experience neurological and psychiatric symptoms, with potential long-term cognitive and behavioral effects from excess glucocorticoids.

This study reviewed Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome and found it consistently associated with hypogonadism, decreased IGF1, and frontotemporal alopecia, with additional symptoms like intellectual disabilities and diabetes in some patients.

In this review, researchers examined the physiological benefits of Cheonggukjang, a salt-free fermented soybean paste, highlighting its various health-promoting components that may contribute to improved heart health, diabetes management, and cancer prevention, among other benefits.

This study suggests that hormonal changes may contribute to the persistent symptoms of long COVID, with specific patterns observed in serum hormone levels related to fatigue and sensory dysfunction.

This review examines hormonal influences on acne development and available hormonal therapies but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the classic skin characteristics of hypothyroidism, notably generalized myxedema caused by increased glycosaminoglycan deposition, and reports no clinical results.

This study identified five distinct scalp whorl patterns, noting that white males have the most distinct whorls, while African Americans and women more often exhibit a diffusion pattern.

This review discusses hypopituitarism's bidirectional relationship with COVID-19 due to metabolic comorbidities and pituitary risks, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study indicates that targeting the PTH/PTHrP receptor may potentially stimulate hair growth, particularly for chemotherapy-induced alopecia, as observed in hairless and cyclophosphamide-treated mice.

This review discusses causes of hair loss in cats, highlighting self-inflicted trauma due to flea allergy dermatitis, and presents no new clinical findings.

Skin health and diseases are closely linked to metabolic processes.

This case report describes the first documented occurrence of pili torti in a healthy young adult cat, marked by noninflammatory and nonpruritic symmetrical multifocal alopecia.

This review discusses the link between metabolic syndrome and various inflammatory skin diseases and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the importance of recognizing skin manifestations as early indicators of systemic metabolic disorders.

This article reviews the possible therapeutic activities of Angelica gigas Nakai root extracts and their components, noting their potential effects on neuro-cognitive, metabolic, and other health conditions, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that sex hormone-binding globulin promotes facial aging, while sex steroid hormones such as testosterone and estradiol inhibit it, with growth hormone levels showing no significant effect.

This study demonstrates that combining gene expression data with a random forest algorithm provides highly accurate diagnosis of childhood growth hormone deficiency, showing potential utility in distinguishing it from non-GHD short stature.

This study found that dihydrotestosterone treatment in female rats altered anterior pituitary gland gene expression, with significant repression of prolactin and inhibition of GnRH receptor gene expression, suggesting specific hormone production changes.
