This article reviews the causes and treatments of hypertrichosis and hirsutism and reports no new clinical findings; the authors compare diagnostic strategies and discuss available treatment options.

This study reported that in embryo transfer cycles for women with nonclassic 21-hydroxylase deficiency, dexamethasone use was associated with improved pregnancy rates, and maintaining a BMI below 23.36 kg/m² increased pregnancy probabilities.

In this study, women treated for androgen-dependent alopecia with CPA EE2 therapy experienced significant decreases in serum vitamin B12, hemoglobin, and hematocrit levels after six months.

This study found that high levels of parathyroid hormone-related protein expression can result in the production of shorter hair shafts, likely through effects on angiogenesis.

In this study, ectoderm-targeted transgenic mice with glucocorticoid receptor overexpression exhibited multiple epithelial defects, suggesting the role of NF-kappaB and p63 dysfunction in ectodermal dysplasia syndromes.

This study found that the mutant hairless rhino bald protein in mice interacts with the vitamin D receptor but cannot repress its transactivation and shows abnormal cellular localization.

In this case report, a rare association between Cushing's syndrome caused by ectopic ACTH from cervical cancer is documented, highlighting the diagnostic challenges, treatment complexity, and high morbidity and mortality, with the patient succumbing to septic shock post-surgery.

This case study describes a one-year-old female Pit Bull Terrier with alopecia X whose hair was fully restored after trilostane therapy addressed an adrenal sex hormone imbalance.

This study observed that electro-acupuncture reduced global DNA methylation and DNMT3b expression in a PCOS-like rat model, suggesting a role of hypothalamic DNA methylation in PCOS development and treatment.

This report presents a case of functioning adrenocortical oncocytoma in a 9-year-old girl with virilization symptoms, successfully treated with laparoscopic surgery.

This paper highlights the potential efficacy of constitutional homeopathic medicine, supplemented with dietary guidance and management of associated diseases like thyroid disorders, in treating alopecia areata to expedite recovery and reduce recurrence.

This study found that human scalp hair follicles can internally operate a Cori cycle, synthesize glycogen in the presence of lactate, and modulate growth through glycogen phosphorylase activity.

This study found that thyroid-stimulating hormone receptors are functionally expressed in various skin cells, implying potential physiological and pathological roles in skin, especially in conditions like autoimmune diseases.

This review discusses the physiology and potential hormonal mechanisms involved in female pattern hair loss, as well as the current hormonal and hormone-modifying treatments available, but reports no new research findings.

This study found hair regrowth in the majority of AA-affected mice and rats treated with diphencyprone, suggesting its potential utility for understanding human alopecia areata and the drug's therapeutic action.

This report presents a case of a child with hypothyroidism and poorly controlled type 1 diabetes developing both Mauriac syndrome and Van Wyk–Grumbach syndrome, two rare complications.

In this study, women with hirsutism and amenorrhea showed lower serum estradiol and sex hormone binding globulin concentrations but higher levels of unbound testosterone compared to normal individuals.

This study observed greater clinical improvement in patients with alopecia areata who received individualized homoeopathic constitutional treatment compared to those who received Acid Phos, but further research with objective measures is needed to confirm these findings.

The mutation causes hairless mice due to mislocalized and dysfunctional HR protein.

In this case report, a 62-year-old postmenopausal woman with hyperandrogenism exhibited male-pattern alopecia and hirsutism, which improved after bilateral adrenal adenomas were removed, underscoring the need for investigation of androgen-producing tumors in similar cases.

This article reviews the characteristics and classification of SAHA syndrome and its relationship with other conditions, without presenting new clinical findings.

In this case report, a 6-year-old spayed female Samoyed dog presented with non-pruritic alopecia and hyperpigmentation on the hips and back, with unremarkable bloodwork and negative Cushing's disease and skin tests.

This article reviews the normal and delayed maturation of the HPG axis and pubertal development in boys and girls, emphasizing clinical aspects of diagnosing and managing delayed puberty, but it reports no new clinical findings.

In this case report, a 9-year-old girl with extensive alopecia areata experienced almost complete hair regrowth within six months after treatment with Oral Mini Pulse of prednisolone and cyclosporine.

This case study reported that a 13-year-old cat with paraneoplastic alopecia due to an intraabdominal apocrine adenocarcinoma exhibited ventrally distributed alopecia and shiny skin, with necropsy showing telogenisation and miniaturisation of the hair follicles.

This case report details a 7-year-old Shih Tzu with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism, where initial trilostane treatment did not improve skin conditions, necessitating a dosage increase.

This study suggests that heparan sulfate is crucial for regulating hair follicle formation, cycling, and gland morphogenesis, with its ablation leading to continuous hair growth and increased gland activity in mice.

This review discusses a new multidisciplinary guideline for treating male hypogonadism and emphasizes a comprehensive approach but reports no new experimental results.

This study found that prolonged intermittent fasting in diet-induced obese mice led to increased levels of inositol monophosphates in white adipose tissue, improved insulin sensitivity, and reduced body weight and fat mass, suggesting a novel metabolic adaptation mechanism.
