This study found that the ethyl acetate fraction of Hibiscus rosa sinensis petals significantly reduced serum glucose and glycated hemoglobin levels in diabetic rats, with effects comparable to metformin.

This narrative review reports that metformin, traditionally used for type 2 diabetes management, may offer therapeutic benefits for various skin disorders, such as acne, rosacea, and psoriasis, due to its anti-inflammatory and other beneficial properties, warranting further exploration in dermatology.

The authors describe a case of syncope in a young man after using high strength topical minoxidil, which resolved when he stopped the treatment, highlighting a rare documented reaction.

In this experimental study, researchers developed and optimized metformin-loaded mucoadhesive microspheres for sustained anti-hyperglycemic and anticancer activity, demonstrating high entrapment efficiency, enhanced α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibition, improved cytotoxicity against breast cancer cells, and promising stability.

This study on diabetic rats reported that Ziziphus spina-christi ethanol leaf extract significantly reduced blood glucose levels and improved liver and kidney function, suggesting possible benefits in managing diabetes symptoms in this animal model.

This review discusses various syndromes of severe insulin resistance, their biochemical and clinical features, and potential therapeutic options, but it reports no new clinical results.

Cromakalim relaxes various blood vessels, while minoxidil sulphate is more selective; they likely act on different potassium channels.

This study found that both ethanol and aqueous extracts of Lepidium sativum seeds improved insulin signaling and reduced obesity-related metabolic changes in high-fat diet-fed rats, suggesting potential as a dietary supplement.

This study reports that hair analysis could potentially monitor metformin use in diabetic patients, suggesting a possible correlation between daily dose and concentration in dark hair but not in light hair.

In this animal study, topical diazoxide treatment led to increased hair thickness and follicle growth in bald stumptailed macaques without causing notable systemic side effects.

This study found that finasteride treatment in benign prostatic hyperplasia patients induced a transient, caspase-dependent apoptosis in epithelial cells, with activity peaking at 6-8 days and diminishing by 27-32 days.

This study found that when metabolism changes and extracellular glucose decreases, hippocampal CA3 neurons release ATP, which is converted to adenosine and reduces neuron excitability, enhancing the seizure threshold.

This study used in-silico molecular docking to evaluate the antidiabetic potential of Eclipta alba leaf flavonoids, finding that compounds like apigenin, syringic acid, and vanillic acid effectively bind to the target protein aldose reductase, suggesting a promising inhibitory action.

This case report describes a 64-year-old postmenopausal woman with hirsutism due to a rare case of bilateral diffuse ovarian Leydig cell hyperplasia, leading to normalized testosterone levels and improved glycaemic control following surgery.

In this study, high doses of Lepidium sativum seeds extract were reported to cause toxicity and tissue damage in animals, suggesting the need for careful use under medical supervision.

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

A rare pancreatic tumor caused a woman's male-like features, treated successfully with surgery and medication.

This study found that Allium ascalonicum L. extract may improve insulin resistance by increasing insulin tolerance test values and lowering blood glucose levels, though more research is needed to understand its effects on metabolic disorders.

In this study, organic garlic was found to have higher levels of bioactive elements and stronger antimicrobial properties compared to chemically grown garlic, highlighting the benefits of organic cultivation for enhancing garlic's nutritional and health-promoting qualities.

This review highlights scientific information about the medicinal uses and phytochemistry of Musa paradisiaca plant parts, which are traditionally used in human medicine to treat conditions such as diabetes, diarrhoea, hypertension, and ulcers, and exhibit various pharmacological activities including antidiabetic, antioxidant, and wound healing effects.

This article reviews the extensive pharmacological applications of various parts of the neem plant, such as anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial effects, and reports no adverse effects except for allergic reactions, concluding neem is broadly beneficial with numerous medicinal and cosmetic uses.

This case study reports that immunotherapy with ipilimumab and nivolumab induced hypophysitis in a patient with renal cell carcinoma, emphasizing the need for careful monitoring of endocrine function in such treatments.

This article describes subclinical ketosis in pregnant cows and associates it with several metabolic changes and clinical signs, reporting decreased levels of hemoglobin and glucose and increased ketone bodies.

This case study reports a patient with ACTH-driven cortisol secretion 14 years after adrenalectomy, suggesting possible residual adrenal tissue or extra-adrenal steroid synthesis, challenging the need for lifelong steroid replacement.

This chapter reviews pharmacodynamic evaluations in endocrine disorders focusing on oral antidiabetics, insulin analogues, and hormone interactions, but reports no new results.

This article reviews the characteristics and risks associated with polycystic ovary syndrome, such as insulin resistance and obesity, highlighting a need for further understanding of its pathogenesis; it reports no new findings.

This study found that inhibitory neurosteroids synthesized within glial cells can reduce seizure frequency in epileptic animals by enhancing inhibitory transmission via γ-aminobutyric acid receptors.

This study found a statistically significant increase in glycosylated hemoglobins among patients with adult-acquired panhypopituitarism undergoing long-term GH replacement therapy, with two developing diabetes requiring treatment.

People with hair loss have higher risk of high blood sugar and diabetes, and lower levels of a specific hormone.

This article reviews the clinical complications and increased mortality risks associated with Cushing's syndrome but does not present new clinical data; it emphasizes the need for prompt treatment to mitigate these risks.
