This study observed that combined treatment with thyroxine and hydrocortisone increased lipid accretion and fat cell development in hypophysectomized fetal pigs, suggesting a key role of these hormones in fetal adipogenesis.

This case report identified a 6-month-old girl with congenital generalized hypertrichosis and gingival hyperplasia, where a de novo CNV on chromosome 17q24.2-24.3 was associated with reduced expression of ABCA5 and SOX9.

This study found that HAIR-AN syndrome is prevalent among young women, and a multifaceted treatment approach effectively reduces symptom severity and prevents further consequences.

In this study, researchers found that hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells, modified to overexpress extracellular matrix protein 1, significantly improved liver function and reduced liver damage in cirrhotic mice by inhibiting hepatic stellate cell activation and TGF-β/Smad signaling.

This article discusses treatments for androgenic manifestations using cyproterone acetate alone or with estrogens, but it does not provide new clinical results.

In this study, HED patients with COVID-19 showed a higher risk of postinfection fatigue and hair loss compared to controls, suggesting they are more susceptible to long-term consequences of SARS-CoV-2 infection.

This review discusses the overlapping clinical features and diagnostic challenges of non-classic adrenal hyperplasia and polycystic ovary syndrome without presenting original research findings.

This study mapped a spontaneous mouse hair mutation, "hague," to keratin genes on chromosome 15 but found no gene mutations in hague mice.

In this article, the authors review the causes, diagnosis, and treatment approaches for hirsutism in women, emphasizing diagnosis, hormonal therapies, lifestyle modifications, and cosmetic options for managing this condition in primary care settings.

This study found that stem cells from mouse hair follicles successfully reconstructed the ocular surface in most limbal stem cell deficiency mice, demonstrating potential for treating the condition in a mouse model.

This study introduces the term "hair matrix cyst" for a cyst with both pilomatricoma and epidermal cyst characteristics, highlighting its potential for misdiagnosis among similar skin conditions.

This case report describes four patients with hypertrichosis cubiti and short stature, but could not determine a genetic link between hypertrichosis cubiti and skeletal dysplasia.

Scientists made glow-in-the-dark dots from human hair that can detect iron, prevent counterfeiting, and reveal fingerprints.

This study found that the HoxC gene cluster is crucial for the development of hair and nails in mice, with key regulation by two mammalian-specific enhancers.

This article describes SAHA syndrome, which includes symptoms of nodulocystic or severe acne, female pattern hair loss, and hirsutism, but reports no new results.

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 study found that scabies was the most common skin condition among children up to 15 years old at a Karachi hospital in 2005.

This case report describes a girl with uncombable hair syndrome who showed significant improvement in hair combability and growth rate after two cycles of oral biotin supplementation.

In this study, no significant differences in hidradenitis suppurativa severity or testosterone levels were found between women with and without polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting PCOS does not predict poor prognosis in HS patients.

This review found that patients with depression generally have higher hair cortisol concentrations compared to healthy controls, while those with PTSD tend to have lower concentrations.

VYC-12L effectively improves skin smoothness, reduces fine lines, and boosts hydration.

This study found that cyproterone compound is not more effective than oral isotretinoin in treating nodulocystic acne in adult females with SAHA syndrome or cutaneous hyperandrogenism, suggesting isotretinoin may be preferable due to its established effectiveness in reducing acne lesions.

This piece reflects on the past year of editing the Assistants' Corner and presents no new research findings.

This review discusses strategies for managing hirsutism in PCOS, highlighting lifestyle changes, hormonal treatments, and the importance of patient-centered care, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that a combination of cyproterone acetate and ethinyl estradiol over one year did not affect glucose tolerance but increased total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides in patients with moderate hyperandrogenism.

This study suggests that human placenta hydrolysate reduces CFA-induced inflammatory pain in mice by inhibiting pro-inflammatory cytokines and protecting peripheral nerves.

In this study, researchers developed a novel delivery system using hyaluronic acid gels to encapsulate Huperzine A for Alzheimer's treatment, achieving extended release over 20 days and significantly improving pathology and behavior in mice, including enhanced memory and reduced neuroinflammation.

This case report describes a 6 1/2-year-old girl with significant height growth and early pubic hair development.

This report describes varied causes of hirsutism in young females and highlights the need to revise diagnoses if initial treatments for common etiologies like PCOS do not yield results.
