In this study, ovarian SAHA was found to be independently associated with a more insulin-resistant profile and increased risk of glucose abnormalities in women with PCOS, beyond common risk factors.

This article discusses the potential relationship between androgenic alopecia and insulin resistance but presents no new clinical findings, calling for further research on the topic.

This review highlights the potential for clinicians to recognize skin manifestations as a straightforward method to detect insulin resistance and improve management of diabetes and obesity.

This study found that dermal papilla cells from balding scalp follicles secrete significantly less insulin-like growth factor-1 and its binding proteins, suggesting a mechanism contributing to male pattern baldness.

In this study, normal weight adolescents with PCOS showed increased insulin resistance and significantly lower levels of high molecular weight adiponectin compared to controls, despite no other metabolic differences.

This study found that older men with vertex balding had lower levels of IGFBP-3 and higher levels of IGF-1 in their plasma.

This review discusses the relationship between hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance in PCOS, focusing on insulin dynamics, molecular mechanisms, genetic studies, and potential long-term treatments, but presents no new clinical results.

This study concluded that IGF-I receptors are present on hair follicles and sebaceous glands of cashmere and Angora goats, but melatonin receptors are absent.

In this case study, the authors identified a circulating low molecular weight inhibitor that may contribute to insulin resistance in a woman with acanthosis nigricans and polycystic ovary syndrome.

This study reports that stimulating sensory neurons with capsaicin and isoflavone increases IGF-I production, promoting hair growth in mice and human volunteers with alopecia.

This study suggests that icariin promotes hair follicle growth in mice by enhancing IGF-1 expression in dermal papilla cells.

This study found that cow placenta extract increased hair follicle size and hair length in mice but was less effective than minoxidil, suggesting potential with further refinement.

This study found that lipin 1β expression in both visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue is significantly lower in PCOS patients compared to controls, suggesting its involvement in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance.

This study found that during dialysis, lower plasma-potassium levels were associated with hyperglycemia, suggesting potassium correction is vital when using glucose-rich dialysate.

In this study, isotretinoin treatment in women with severe acne increased body weight and triglycerides but did not affect androgens or insulin sensitivity.

This study found that both metformin and rosiglitazone improved ovulation and insulin sensitivity in women with PCOS, with rosiglitazone showing a more pronounced increase in adiponectin levels.

This study found that increased ovarian volume is associated with markers of insulin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, while follicle number was not linked to metabolic risk.

This study found that alopecia areata patients had increased insulin resistance compared to controls, suggesting a potential link between inflammation, stress axis activation, and insulin resistance in this population.

This study found that early androgenic alopecia patients showed increased prevalence of insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome, suggesting they should be monitored for coronary artery disease over the long term.

This study found that fasting insulin levels are associated with increased cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

This study demonstrated that genetically engineered stem cells from human hair follicles can reverse hyperglycemia and reduce mortality in mice with type 1 diabetes by overexpressing the human insulin gene.

This study found that adding metformin to IPL therapy in women with PCOS significantly improved insulin sensitivity and reduced hirsutism compared to IPL therapy alone.

This review discusses the role of inheritance, androgens, and microinflammation in androgenetic alopecia and suggests some plant-based folk remedies may help address these factors but reports no new clinical results.

This study reports an increased frequency of the DI genotype of the ACE gene polymorphism among women with PCOS, notably in those with hyperandrogenism, and an association of the II genotype with insulin resistance.

This study found that insulin promotes corneal epithelial wound healing and nerve recovery in diabetic mice through Wnt signaling, suggesting its potential as a protective factor for diabetic corneal damage.

In this study of women with polycystic ovary syndrome, insulin resistance was associated with obesity, waist circumference, lipid accumulation, and hypertension, with no significant difference in prevalence between different diagnostic methods.

This report advances the hypothesis that finasteride and dutasteride inhibit 5α-reductase activities, potentially altering steroid metabolism and increasing the risk of insulin resistance, diabetes, and vascular disease.

This study found that in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, PCOS phenotype and oxidative stress markers were significantly related to free androgen index levels, but insulin resistance was not.

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 found that older age and obesity are predictors of metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance syndrome among infertile Vietnamese women with PCOS.
