This study developed and validated a comprehensive method using mass spectrometry to profile sex (pro)hormones in plasma, with results showing reliable calibration and detection of 31 analytes in samples from pre- and postmenopausal women and men, while addressing potential over- or underestimations in analyte concentrations.

This consensus statement outlines a treatment algorithm for alopecia areata, detailing systemic treatment indications and options, including EMA-approved medications baricitinib and ritlecitinib for severe cases, as well as other off-label treatments and adjuvant therapies like oral minoxidil.

This review analyzed past research on hormonal treatments for hidradenitis suppurativa, finding that anti-androgens like finasteride and spironolactone, along with metformin, showed promise but large-scale trials are needed to understand their full potential.

This review discusses various treatment options for non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21α-hydroxylase and 11β-hydroxylase deficiencies without providing new clinical results.

This study revealed that chronic restraint stress in mice led to significant alterations in metabolic pathways and gene expression associated with hair growth inhibition, using metabolomics and transcriptomics analyses.

This paper discusses the complex interplay between Long Covid symptoms and various chronic fatigue-related conditions but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that metformin's metabolic benefits, such as reducing fat content and improving insulin sensitivity, were less pronounced in men with early-onset androgenic alopecia compared to those with normal hair growth, possibly due to differences in systemic inflammation and vitamin D status.

This study systematically compared pediatric and adult Cushing's disease patients, revealing more severe and earlier-onset symptoms in males, and distinct gender-specific clinical manifestations.

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.

Sorafenib may cause hair loss in a way similar to alopecia areata.

This article reviews the diagnosis and management of polycystic ovary syndrome, emphasizing lifestyle changes and treatment strategies, and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses polycystic ovary syndrome, its diagnosis criteria, and treatment options, including weight loss and medications, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that both finasteride and metformin effectively reduced androgen levels and insulin resistance parameters in women with PCOS, without clear evidence of one treatment being superior.

This review discusses the safety of dermatological medications used during pregnancy, highlighting that retinoids have strong teratogenic risks and should be used with caution; it reports no new clinical results.
