This study identified a new genotype, V281+I172N/V281L, linked to non-classical 21-hydroxylase deficiency, suggesting it should be considered in genetic panels for the condition.

This study found that in young men with post-finasteride syndrome, there are potential genetic risk factors associated with psychological and sexual dysfunctions, suggesting genetic screening may be beneficial before prescribing finasteride.

This study found that patient-derived HGF significantly accelerates wound healing in diabetic mice, particularly improving skin structure and flexibility, and rHGF plays a key role in boosting hair growth.

This article reports a case of rhabdomyolysis in a patient two hours after consuming the freshwater fish Mylossoma duriventre, suggesting a possible link to Haff disease from an unidentified toxin.

This case report highlights a rare presentation of acute lupus hemophagocytic syndrome with initially negative antinuclear antibodies, underscoring the higher sensitivity of the 2012 Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics criteria for diagnosis.

This case report describes a 60-year-old man with a rare 46, XX karyotype who presented with cerebellar infarct and polycythaemia, leading to further endocrine investigations after adrenal gland enlargement was found.

Researchers found a new area on chromosome 2 linked to a genetic hair loss condition.

This review summarizes recent genetic research on hidradenitis suppurativa, highlighting potential therapeutic targets and genetic mutations, but reports no new clinical findings.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia may be caused by changes in how the body processes male hormones.

This case report describes a child with Gomez–Lopez–Hernandez syndrome, highlighting developmental challenges and medical interventions, yet noting academic success and participation in mainstream activities.

This case report describes a 22-year-old male with hair casts on scalp and body hair, associated with androgenetic alopecia, also affecting his sister as pseudonits.

This case report describes a 7-year-old child with linear lupus panniculitis of the scalp, treated successfully with a combination of hydroxychloroquine, topical and intralesional steroids, and a topical calcineurin inhibitor.

This study found that in patients with nonclassical 21-hydroxylase deficiency, genotypes do not reliably predict the severity of hyperandrogenic symptoms, suggesting other genetic factors may influence the phenotype.

In this case study, a 68-year-old woman was diagnosed with central diabetes insipidus and hypothalamic hypopituitarism due to a Rathke's cleft cyst.

This study shows that measuring 17-hydroxyprogesterone concentrations in scalp hair may be a useful noninvasive tool for monitoring treatment in adults with congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This study reports that a widespread founder SERPINB7 mutation underlies Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratosis, which is a common form of palmoplantar keratosis in Asian populations.

This study reported a rare case where a pheochromocytoma produced ACTH, leading to cyclic Cushing syndrome, and underscores the importance of considering this possibility in cases of ACTH-dependent hypercortisolism with an adrenal mass.

This study found a severe MBTPS2 gene mutation in a Japanese IFAP syndrome patient, suggesting other factors may influence the syndrome's clinical features compared to previously studied patients.

This case report details the first known instance of interferon-induced lichen planus in a seronegative HCV patient with metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

In this study, BPA rapidly increased dendritic spine and synapse densities in cultured rat hippocampal neurons, with involvement of estrogen receptors and ERK1/2 and p38 pathways, but disrupted dihydrotestosterone's effects on synaptic plasticity.

This study suggests that finasteride may inhibit the enzyme phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase, which could contribute to its sexual and psychological side effects.

This study identified a population of GFP-expressing nestin-positive cells in transgenic mice hair follicles that varied in location during different hair cycle phases, suggesting a shared relationship with neural stem cells.

This case study suggests that treatment with Pil-Food, intended for hair loss prevention, may have triggered postinfantile giant cell hepatitis with autoimmune characteristics, which showed a rapid and effective response to corticosteroid therapy.

This study identified the c.1204G to A (p.E402K) mutation in the hHB6 gene as a cause of monilethrix in a Chinese family, highlighting the gene's role in the condition.

This case report describes a patient who experienced proton-induced alopecia after proton therapy for a frontal meningioma, which was effectively treated with topical minoxidil, resulting in full hair regrowth after 4 months.

This study proposes a new test for genome-wide association studies that incorporates Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium into SNP analysis, demonstrating improved power and interpretability over traditional methods, as evidenced by simulations and an alopecia study dataset.

This case report highlights a rare presentation of APS-1 in a 28-year-old Pakistani male with cardiovascular and pulmonary symptoms, illustrating the importance of early recognition and multidisciplinary management for improved patient outcomes.

This case report highlights that women with nonclassical congenital adrenal hyperplasia should be aware of the risk of having a child with classical CAH if their partner also carries a severe mutation.

This article evaluates clinical and scientific literature on post-finasteride syndrome, concluding that finasteride and dutasteride may cause persistent sexual, neurological, and physical adverse side effects in a subset of men.
