In this open-label trial, 9-cis-retinoic acid showed moderate activity against Kaposi sarcoma in AIDS patients, but its use is limited by substantial side effects at higher doses.

This study found mixed evidence linking traction hairstyles, previous pregnancies, chemical hair relaxers, and several comorbidities to an increased risk of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in Black women.

This study found that fermented camel milk containing 50% pumpkin seed milk significantly improved oxidative stress markers in rats and enhanced sensory and physicochemical properties compared to untreated groups.

This study found that women with PCOS, especially those who are obese, showed higher oxidative stress and decreased antioxidant levels, correlating with metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease risk factors.

This study found that reduced plasma DIAPH1 levels were associated with polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting DIAPH1 as a potential predictive factor for the condition.

This study found that psoriasis, acne, and androgenetic alopecia are associated with an atherogenic lipid profile, suggesting an increased risk of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease, especially among psoriasis patients.

This case report examines the long-term impact of extensive anabolic-androgenic steroid use on metabolic and cardiovascular health, highlighting adverse effects to guide primary care for this patient group.

This study demonstrated a significant association between high lipid accumulation product (LAP) and hirsutism in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

In this study, no significant difference was found in serum triglyceride and HDL cholesterol levels between male patients with androgenetic alopecia and those without.

This study found that abnormal serum lipid levels were prevalent among male patients with androgenetic alopecia, with high triglycerides and low HDL observed frequently.

This study observed that the ethyl acetate extract of Equisetum debile showed high activity against 5α-reductase and lipid peroxidation with no cytotoxicity on dermal papilla cells.

This review discusses the effects of testosterone therapy for transgender men, noting desired outcomes and potential risks, but reports no new research findings; the authors highlight a lack of high-quality data due to various study limitations.

The antiandrogen 11α-hydroxyprogesterone effectively reduces skin oil and cholesterol when applied to the skin.

This study focused on designing a niosome formulation that encapsulates pumpkin seed oil for topical use, achieving high entrapment efficiency and stability over three months.

In this study, researchers found that a high-fat diet in mice induced downregulation of certain Krtap genes in the tongue, which may be linked to structural issues or oral cancer risk, highlighting a potential connection between oral health and systemic diseases like metabolic syndrome.

This study found that, despite the unchanged total level of 18-MEA, deletion of the Sox21 gene disrupts its attachment to the hair cuticle, increases cholesterol sulphate levels, and differentially affects ceramide composition.

In this study, women with polycystic ovary syndrome showed adverse lipoprotein profile changes that increase cardiovascular risk, which were found to be more closely related to androgen levels than body weight.

This meta-analysis confirmed associations between some androgenic and metabolic parameters in women with PCOS, suggesting that these measurements might help predict metabolic risk in this population.

In this study, a high-fat, high-cholesterol diet in atherosclerotic mice led to skin inflammation and hair problems, which could be reversed by inhibiting glycosphingolipid synthesis.

This study reported that machine learning analysis of protein profiles in hair segments achieved high accuracy in distinguishing women with non-suicidal self-injury disorder from healthy controls, suggesting hair proteomics as a promising non-invasive biomarker for stress-related psychopathology with potential clinical applications.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have higher global adiposity and increased visceral fat, particularly in the ip and mesenteric depots, compared to women without androgen excess.

In this study, the researchers found that glucocorticoid receptor activation may influence glucose metabolism, with preventive GR antagonist treatment reducing hyperglycemia and restoring glucose tolerance in a PCOS mouse model.

This review describes two cases of young women with primary amenorrhea and hyperandrogenemia, suggesting that adrenal tumors should be considered in patients with significantly elevated circulating testosterone levels.

This study found that acne was the most common dermatological manifestation in Korean women with polycystic ovary syndrome, particularly those with a specific combination of symptoms, showing distinct variations in serum hormonal and metabolic parameters.

This study found that women with PCOS had significantly higher hair cortisol concentrations, suggesting hyperactivation of the HPA axis may affect metabolic and inflammatory markers in those with elevated cortisol levels.

This review examines the use of natural remedies, including various herbs, for treating polycystic ovary syndrome, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that lifestyle interventions improved body composition, hyperandrogenism, and insulin resistance in women with PCOS, but did not affect glucose tolerance, lipid profiles, or clinical reproductive outcomes.

This study found that 12 weeks of melatonin supplementation improved mental health and metabolic parameters in women with polycystic ovary syndrome compared to a placebo.

The source does not provide an abstract for this letter to the editor, so specific results regarding the long-term efficacy and safety of dutasteride for male androgenetic alopecia are not reported.

This article outlines the clinical features, evaluation, and treatment strategies for androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome, highlighting important diagnostic and management approaches but reporting no new research results.
