The document concludes that Rabson-Mendenhall syndrome requires novel treatments for insulin resistance and emphasizes the importance of dental care in affected patients.
research Rodent Models in Placental Research: Implications for Fetal Origins of Adult Disease
Using rodents for research shows that health problems in the womb can cause diseases later in life.
research CAG Repeat Testing of Androgen Receptor Polymorphism: Is This Necessary for the Best Clinical Management of Hypogonadism?
Testing for CAG repeat polymorphism in the androgen receptor gene is not currently recommended for managing hypogonadism.
research Evidence for Masculinization of Adipokine Gene Expression in Visceral and Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue of Obese Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Obese women with PCOS show a male-like pattern in certain fat tissue gene expressions.
research Human Platelet Lysate Versus Minoxidil Stimulates Hair Growth by Activating Anagen Promoting Signaling Pathways
Both human platelet lysate and minoxidil can promote hair growth, but they affect different genes and cell survival rates.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Its Impact on Health
PCOS affects women's health by increasing the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and reproductive issues.
research Obesity and the Skin: Skin Physiology and Skin Manifestations of Obesity
Obesity affects skin health, causing conditions like acanthosis nigricans and may require different treatment approaches.
research Transcriptome Analysis of Skin from SMP30/GNL Knockout Mice Reveals the Effect of Ascorbic Acid Deficiency on Skin and Hair

research Effect of a Low-Starch/Low-Dairy Diet on Fat Oxidation in Overweight and Obese Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
A low-starch/low-dairy diet may help overweight women with PCOS lose weight and improve metabolism, but more research is needed.
research Consequences of Steroid-5α-Reductase Deficiency and Inhibition in Vertebrates
Lack or blocking of SRD5a, a key component in hormone creation, can lead to conditions like pseudohermaphrodism and affect hair growth, bone mass, muscle strength, and reproductive health. More research is needed on its regulation from fertilization to adulthood.
research Activation of TLR3 Enhances Stemness and Immunomodulatory Properties of Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells
Activating TLR3 improves the healing and immune properties of periodontal ligament stem cells.
research Primary Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance And Hypersensitivity
The conclusion is that genetic changes in the glucocorticoid receptor can lead to conditions affecting stress response, immunity, and metabolism, requiring personalized treatment.
research Menstrual Disorders in Adolescents
The document concludes that early recognition and treatment of PCOS in adolescents is crucial for managing symptoms and long-term health risks.
research Hair Follicles as a Critical Model for Monitoring the Circadian Clock
Hair follicles could be used to noninvasively monitor our body's internal clock and help identify risks for related diseases.
research Perspectives in Dermatopathology: Telomeres and Telomerase in Aging and Cancer with Emphasis on Cutaneous Disease
Short telomeres contribute to aging and cancer, and while telomerase can delay aging, it may also promote cancer.

Testosterone may slow down wound healing and increase inflammation.
research Calcineurin-Based Immunosuppression in Renal Transplantation: Focus on Efficacy, the Role of Steroids, and Cardiovascular Risk
Tacrolimus causes fewer acute rejections than cyclosporin A in kidney transplants but doesn't necessarily improve kidney function after one year; cardiovascular risks and side effects vary between the two drugs.
research Current Evaluation of Amenorrhea
Amenorrhea is when a woman doesn't have periods, with primary amenorrhea starting by age 15 or within five years of breast development, and secondary amenorrhea when periods stop for three months. It affects 3-4% of women not pregnant, breastfeeding, or in menopause, mainly due to polycystic ovary syndrome, hypothalamic amenorrhea, hyperprolactinemia, and ovarian failure.
