This study found that long-term use of difluprednate ophthalmic emulsion in dogs can lead to HPA axis suppression and potentially cause iatrogenic hyperadrenocorticism, with localized alopecia suspected due to dermal absorption.

In this study, socially defeated mice showed increased alcohol consumption, and CRF-R1 antagonism selectively reduced drinking in these mice, suggesting a potential treatment target for stress-related alcohol use disorders.

This case study suggests that marijuana use may be associated with low TSH levels without causing thyroid dysfunction in humans.

This research letter observed that patients with severe atopic dermatitis showed normal serum cortisol levels after hospitalization despite continued use of potent topical corticosteroids, though poor adherence may lead to overestimations of actual medication use.

This study found that in pregnant rats, the suppression of ACTH responses to IL-1β is linked to the action of endogenous opioids and AP, with AP potentially inducing opioid inhibition through increased pENK-A expression.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of functional hypothalamic amenorrhea in adolescent girls and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, plasma levels of MSH and cortisol in patients with alopecia areata did not show significant changes compared to healthy controls.

This case series reported incidents of iatrogenic Cushing's Syndrome linked to high doses of intralesional corticosteroid injections and mesotherapy regimens, highlighting the need for cautious prescription practices and further research on mesotherapy safety.

This review discusses contraceptive options for adolescent girls, highlighting potential recommendations and contraindications, and reports no new clinical findings.

This review summarizes the recent advances in molecular mechanisms influencing tissue sensitivity to glucocorticoids, emphasizing novel mutations and new information on the glucocorticoid receptor's circadian rhythm and ligand-induced repression, but reports no new results.

This review discusses the roles of the Agouti and Agouti-related proteins in pigmentation and energy regulation and reports no new experimental findings.

This review discusses sex differences in the neuroendocrine response to stress, focusing primarily on rodent studies, and highlights open questions about the roles of gonadal hormones and sex chromosomes.

This study found that restoring hypothalamic NPY levels in mice delayed aging-related characteristics such as fat loss, hair loss, and memory decline, suggesting that maintaining these levels could be important for counteracting aging and its effects.

This study suggests that chronic stress can lead to decreased skin pigmentation in mice by disrupting the skin's HPA axis, potentially making stress a risk factor for depigmentation.

This study reports that a young man with severe testotoxicosis maintained spontaneous fertility despite suppressed FSH levels, underscoring the importance of high intratesticular testosterone levels for spermatogenesis.

This study concluded that a regimen of transdermal estradiol and oral medroxyprogesterone acetate effectively reduces hirsutism while minimizing side effects in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

This study found that dexamethasone effectively suppressed DHEAS levels in women with elevated levels using much lower doses than previously thought, without significant adverse effects.

Women with epilepsy should be monitored for reproductive issues, which can be caused by epilepsy or its treatments, especially when using valproate.

This review discusses the pharmacological properties and clinical applications of cyproterone acetate and similar antiandrogens, noting previous failures in local applications due to concentration limitations; it reports no new empirical results.

This review discusses the clinical manifestations and diagnostic challenges of polycystic ovary syndrome in adolescents, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and intervention to manage symptoms effectively, but it reports no new clinical results.

Testosterone replacement therapy can prevent men from fathering children and should not be used by those wanting to stay fertile.

This study found that lowering serum DHT levels with 5 mg finasteride daily did not significantly alter serum gonadotropin levels in healthy young men after 28 days.

This study concluded that qiviut cortisol can be used as a measure of HPA axis activity in muskoxen, with hair growth phase and body region affecting cortisol levels.

This article provides an overview of ovulation disorders, discussing ovarian, hypothalamic, and endocrine defects but reports no new clinical findings.

Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in causing acne, and treatments like hormone control pills and hormone-blocking medications can help.

This study reports that two oral hormonal agents, dimethandrolone undecanoate and 11β-methylnortestosterone dodecylcarbonate, may effectively suppress hormones to contraceptive levels in men with mild side effects, though longer-term trials are required to confirm their safety and efficacy.

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 review examines the clinical features, causes, diagnosis, and treatment of Chrousos syndrome but reports no new experimental findings on this condition.

This article reviews the limited evidence on testosterone therapy for premenopausal women and notes a lack of long-term safety and effectiveness data for this population.

This review discusses the role of glucocorticoids in treating severe inflammatory disorders and highlights their potential adverse effects, recommending dosage management to minimize these risks; no new clinical results are reported.
