This article discusses the potential of using human hair follicles as a model to study prolactin's regulation and activities but reports no new experimental findings; the authors suggest further research in this area.

In this study, a 37-year-old female with resistant hypertension and signs of Cushing's syndrome and primary aldosteronism was found to have normal cortisol levels but high levels of cortisol and aldosterone via adrenal venous sampling, leading to a diagnosis confirmed by right adrenalectomy.

In this study, pregnant women with isolated hypothyroxinemia experienced more asthenia, dry skin, hair loss, fragile nails, vomiting, and anemia, suggesting a negative impact on pregnancy despite treatment.

This study found that HAIR-AN syndrome is prevalent among young women, and a multifaceted treatment approach effectively reduces symptom severity and prevents further consequences.

This study suggests that human lymphoblastoid interferon, with or without prednisolone pretreatment, may be an effective and safe treatment option for hepatitis B in Oriental patients compared to placebo.

In this study, severe hair loss occurred in PKC epsilon transgenic mice treated with DFMO during skin tumor prevention, highlighting a link between polyamine biosynthesis, hair follicle maintenance, and metastasis suppression.

In this study, scalp biopsies from HJMD patients revealed histological similarities to chronic telogen effluvium and highlighted the role of CDH3 mutations disrupting normal hair cycles.

This study concluded that prepubertal girls with hypertrichosis have androgen receptors with enhanced sensitivity, which may contribute to their increased body hair growth.

In this study, decreased levels of SHBG and a high free androgen index were observed in men with severe premature baldness compared to controls, but this condition was not equivalent to PCOS or metabolic syndrome in females.

Treatment with a hormone agonist can reduce excess male hormones in postmenopausal women without surgery.

This study found widespread localization of parathyroid hormone-related protein in normal and cancerous canine tissues, suggesting a potential physiological role as a paracrine or autocrine factor.

This study found that introducing the recombinant rat OTC gene into SPF-ASH mice restored normal hair growth and metabolic function, improving symptoms associated with OTC deficiency.

This study found that finasteride treatment significantly reduced hirsutism and dihydrotestosterone levels in women with idiopathic hirsutism or polycystic ovary syndrome over six months.

This review discusses the potential role of brown adipose tissue in managing polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no new clinical results; it highlights a need for further research on this therapeutic avenue.

This study found that Phellodendri Cortex Ex may reduce prostate tissue damage and inhibit $5{\alpha}$-reductase gene expression in a rat model of benign prostatic hyperplasia, suggesting potential therapeutic benefits.

This case report describes a misdiagnosed case of HAIR-AN syndrome with an unfortunate outcome, highlighting the challenges in distinguishing it from other hyperandrogenic conditions.

This study found that women treated with GnRHa for central precocious puberty had a higher prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome in adulthood compared to those with isolated premature thelarche.

This case report describes a unique instance of an otherwise healthy infant with phylloid terminal hair nevus, a form of hypomelanosis without extracutaneous abnormalities.

This case report describes a woman with hyperandrogenism and menstrual disturbances, where an ovarian steroid cell tumor was identified and removed, leading to resolution of symptoms.

This study found that both subclinical and overt maternal hypothyroidism during pregnancy and lactation caused significant damage to the skin development of rat offspring, including pronounced hyperkeratosis and reduced hair follicle formation, with more severe effects observed in overt hypothyroidism.

This study suggests that combining 17-beta estradiol with prednisolone could accelerate hair regrowth after chemotherapy-induced alopecia in humans, based on preclinical findings using an in vitro model.

This study found that an 8-month treatment with a low-dose oral contraceptive significantly reduced testosterone levels and hair growth in women with polycystic ovary syndrome and hirsutism, with minimal side effects.

This study observed that patients with hypothyroidism-associated hair loss commonly have deficiencies in several vitamins and minerals, suggesting that these deficiencies may be linked to their condition.

This study found that Hairless (Hr) acts as a corepressor of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) in human keratinocytes, blocking the action of vitamin D on keratinocyte differentiation.

This review discusses ovarian hyperthecosis as a rare cause of androgenetic alopecia in postmenopausal women and reports no new results; the authors highlight the need to explore its relationship to alopecia further.

This study suggests that maternal hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance may induce ferroptosis in the gravid uterus and placenta in rats, but through distinct molecular mechanisms.

In this study of immature male albino rats on a vitamin B12-deficient diet, vitamin B12 supplementation improved body, hair, and thymus growth more effectively than aureomycin when countering the negative effects of cortisone.

This review discusses causes, diagnostic guidelines, and management strategies for hirsutism, highlighting the need for appropriate evaluations and treatment considerations in different patient populations, but reports no new clinical results.

This study highlights that scalp hair loss is an underreported side effect of somatostatin analogs therapy, potentially linked to decreased GH/IGF-1 levels or a direct drug effect.

This study evaluated the effects of exosome therapy from hypoxia-treated mesenchymal stem cells on a fluconazole-induced alopecia model in rats and found that it significantly reduced TNF-α and increased VEGF levels, suggesting potential as a novel regenerative treatment for alopecia.
