research Endocrinology and Auxology of Siblings with Non-Classical Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Siblings with signs of virilization should be tested for non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia, which does not affect adult height but may impact fertility and well-being if untreated.
research Non-Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia is a common disorder causing symptoms like acne and infertility, and it's managed based on symptoms, not just test results. Treatment can improve fertility and reduce miscarriage risk.
research CYP21A2 Genotypes Do Not Predict the Severity of Hyperandrogenic Manifestations in the Nonclassical Form of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
The severity of symptoms in nonclassical congenital adrenal hyperplasia is not determined by CYP21A2 gene variations.
research Genetics of Alopecia
Different genes are linked to various types of hair loss.
research mTORC1 Activity Controls Human Scalp Hair Follicle Pigmentation and Growth
mTORC1 activity is important for hair growth and color, and targeting it could help treat hair loss and greying.
research Relationship of Hypothyroidism with Alopecia Areata and Androgenetic Alopecia: Insights from a Two-Sample Mendelian Randomization Study
