This review highlights the connection between sex hormones and metabolic dysfunction, emphasizing how conditions like male hypogonadism and female hyperandrogenism can increase the risk and severity of hepatic steatosis, which often progresses alongside metabolic syndrome and elevates mortality risks.

In this study examining male patients with androgenetic alopecia, 63.1% were found to have dyslipidemia, with more severe hair loss significantly associated with higher lipid abnormalities, suggesting a link to cardiovascular risk factors.

This case report describes a 52-year-old black woman with diffuse scalp swelling and thinning hair attributed to a large increase in the thickness of scalp subcutaneous fatty tissue.

This study found that both men and women with androgenic alopecia had significantly higher triglycerides, total cholesterol, and LDL-C and lower HDL-C levels than controls, suggesting increased dyslipidemia prevalence.

This study found that CD45RO+ cells, a subtype of T lymphocytes, were notably reduced in the ovarian follicles of women with PCOS, which may contribute to the condition's pathogenesis.

This study found that fig leaf extract significantly downregulated inflammatory and androgenic gene expression in vitro, suggesting potential topical benefits for certain skin disorders.

MC4R gene variants not linked to female hair loss.

Contact dermatitis may speed up hair loss in some cases.

This article reviews analysis techniques in LC-MS/MS and discusses the potential use of a novel in-sample calibration curve method, but reports no new experimental results.

This article provides no new data as it is a letter to the editor and lacks an abstract, focusing instead on discussing aspects of hair loss in the elderly without presenting research results.

This research reports the presence of various physicochemical constituents and nutrients in glycine max (soybean) milk and okara, highlighting its potential medicinal and nutritional benefits.

In this study, no significant relationship between metabolic syndrome parameters and alopecia areata was observed among the patients.

This article describes a case of severe hyperandrogenism in a 35-year-old woman where high-resolution imaging ruled out tumors, and treatment with cyproterone acetate normalized testosterone levels.

This study found that obese individuals commonly experienced skin manifestations such as acanthosis nigricans, hyperandrogenism features, and increased cutaneous infections compared to non-obese individuals.

This study found that dermatology consultations in a tertiary care center led to treatment changes in most cases, especially for complex conditions potentially linked to systemic disease.

This study found that men with androgenic alopecia had significantly higher levels of lipoprotein (a), a risk factor for coronary artery disease, compared to men with normal hair.

This case report describes instances of lipedematous scalp and lipedematous alopecia in white adults, indicating these rare conditions may be more widespread and frequent in this population than previously thought.

In this rare case report, the researchers described a 66-year-old African woman with lipedematous alopecia, highlighting its clinical features, the significance of palpation in examinations, and the uncertainty of it being a distinct disease entity or a combination of two conditions.

This study found that higher levels of lead and molybdenum in hair were associated with an increased risk of dyslipidemia, while there was a significant interaction showing opposing effects of lead and cadmium on dyslipidemia risk among adults in China.

This case report identifies an adolescent with symptoms indicative of Dunnigan-type partial lipodystrophy, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis to manage associated metabolic complications and improve self-esteem.

This letter to the editor discusses data from a study on troglitazone for lipodystrophy, noting significant increases in subcutaneous fat without dietary changes.

In this study, patients with androgenetic alopecia showed no difference in insulin resistance or prevalence of metabolic syndrome but had higher cardiovascular risk due to increased inflammatory markers and lipoprotein(a) levels.

This study reports that elderly men with baldness and comorbid conditions experienced persistent scalp erosions following topical treatment with imiquimod or diclofenac, suggesting alternative therapies should be considered for this group.

This study reported no significant statistical difference in insulin resistance or QUICKI levels between reproductive women with androgenetic alopecia and age-matched controls.

This case report highlights a female patient with familial partial lipodystrophy who showed significant improvement in liver stiffness after starting leptin replacement therapy.

This study found no significant association between metabolic syndrome and lichen planus, but hypertension, triglycerides, and low HDLC levels were significantly associated with lichen planus.

This study reports that metreleptin treatment in a boy with congenital generalized lipodystrophy significantly improved metabolic complications and overall health outcomes during the first year of therapy.

This study found that in PCOS patients, variations in the lipin 1 gene, particularly the intron 1 SNP, may protect against insulin resistance and glucose intolerance, highlighting a potential genetic factor in the disorder's cardiometabolic complications.

This report describes the clinical and histopathological features of lipoid proteinosis in a brother and sister with lid lesions, highlighting the importance of recognizing such lesions for diagnosis.

This study found that among HIV-infected women, central lipohypertrophy was associated with shorter eyelashes but not changes in scalp hair texture or inflammation.
