This study found that oral contraceptive pills containing cyproterone acetate and drospirenone were more effective at reducing hirsutism in women with PCOS than those containing levonorgestrel over a 6-month period.

This study explains that congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency presents as a continuous phenotype and involves symptoms ranging from virilization to accelerated growth in children, with diagnosis relying on clinical, biochemical, and genetic evaluation.

This study found that hair cortisol concentrations in mother-daughter pairs are a potential biomarker for cortisol responses to chronic stress, with daughter-mother similarities affected by parenting styles and children's symptoms.

This study observed that five out of fourteen individuals aged 13-16 years, who were homozygous for the p.C282Y mutation related to hemochromatosis, had increased liver and phlebotomy-mobilized iron levels.

This review discusses recent advancements in congenital adrenal hyperplasia research, including improved diagnostic techniques, alternative treatments, and insights from long-term outcome data, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that the HCR risk allele within the PSORS1 locus may contribute to psoriasis susceptibility by altering gene expression related to skin structure and differentiation, although these changes alone might not result in clinical symptoms.

This review discusses the unique challenges of diagnosing and managing polycystic ovarian syndrome in adolescents and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that both a high dose of CPA and GnRHa are effective for treating hirsutism in hyperandrogenic women, but GnRHa with add-back therapy may lead to a longer remission period.

This study found that US adults with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia most preferred a hypothetical adjunctive therapy that prevents glucocorticoid-induced weight gain over other potential benefits.

This article describes the causes of hirsutism, introduces a novel assessment tool, and suggests strategies for investigation and management, but provides no new experimental results.

In this study, hirsutism was found to have the most significant negative impact on health-related quality of life among Iranian women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

This review discusses the use of hair cortisol concentration as a marker for chronic stress and long-term cortisol secretion in animals, highlighting its benefits and the need for standardized sampling protocols.

Antiandrogens, particularly flutamide and CPA, are most effective for treating hirsutism, with long-term use needed for best results.

This study observed that women with PCOS from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa had significantly higher serum PSA levels, which positively correlated with hirsutism, testosterone, and DHEAS levels compared to healthy controls.

This study reviewed the current understanding of congenital adrenal hyperplasia from 21-hydroxylase deficiency, highlighting the impact of universal newborn screening in reducing mortality and discussing ongoing treatment challenges and future therapeutic prospects.

This case study reported that even with improved adrenal androgens and testosterone levels, treating women with AH-PCOS with glucocorticoids did not significantly improve ovulatory function or hirsutism.

This study reported that inpatient dermatology consultations at a large tertiary care center led to treatment changes in 81.9% of cases, particularly improving management of complex cutaneous conditions associated with systemic diseases.

This study concluded that polycystic ovary syndrome is the most common cause of hirsutism, with significant correlations between PCOS, insulin resistance, and BMI among affected women.

This study found that health-related quality of life was significantly lower in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, especially those with the anovulatory phenotype, compared to non-PCOS controls attending a tertiary hospital.

This study found that LAHR significantly improves the quality of life in the short term for women with PCOS, but underscores a need for further research to develop long-term treatment strategies.

This article reviews treatments for progeria, including aspirin, hydrotherapy, and farnesyl transferase inhibitors, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that hair cortisol concentrations can be reliably measured in healthy children and generally increase with age, unaffected by gender, puberty, or hair care practices.

This study reported that 44% of hirsute women undergoing cyproterone acetate treatment experienced impaired sexual enjoyment, highlighting the need to inform patients about potential side effects.

This question-based abstract lists potential survey questions regarding contraception, hormone therapy, and related health issues but presents no new research findings.

This study observed that drug-naïve first-episode psychosis patients had higher hair cortisol concentrations than healthy controls, and these concentrations correlated with the severity of psychopathology.

This review discusses Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, highlighting a relatively mild case and suggesting that it may be a more benign and possibly reversible condition with treatment, but reports no new clinical results.
