This review discusses the clinical applications and adverse effects of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia and androgenic alopecia, noting controversies around their implications for other diseases, without reporting new results.

This study found that adolescent men in Ireland are more likely to prefer keeping a baby over abortion in a hypothetical unplanned pregnancy, influenced by their anticipated regret and perceived familial attitudes.

This guideline from the Endocrine Society recommends using the Rotterdam criteria for diagnosing polycystic ovary syndrome and outlines first-line treatments, emphasizing hormonal contraceptives and lifestyle intervention.

This review discusses the role of androgens in the progression of cardiovascular disease and explores novel therapeutic targets without reporting new clinical results.

This study found that minoxidil stimulates the Kir6.2/SUR2 potassium channel, leading to tumor growth arrest in an ovarian cancer xenograft model by disrupting mitochondrial function and inducing cell death.

This review discusses the association between polycystic ovarian syndrome and hypertension, highlighting evidence of metabolic factors influencing this potential link and stressing the need for further research in this area.

In this review, anabolic steroid use was reported to increase risks such as cardiovascular issues, liver damage, endocrine disruptions, and musculoskeletal injuries, with psychological impacts also noted, underscoring the need for education and preventive strategies.

This review outlines the major health consequences of anabolic-androgenic steroid abuse, with a focus on sexual and reproductive issues, and suggests management prioritizes cessation and relapse prevention due to lack of robust randomized trials.

This review discusses the role of ADAM 17 in gynecological disorders, particularly PCOS, and suggests its potential for therapeutic intervention, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the neurobiology of sexual function and reports no new results; the authors cover multiple endocrine and neurotransmitter influences on sexual desire, arousal, and orgasm stages.

This review discusses the various causes and associations of eyelash trichomegaly, including congenital syndromes, acquired conditions, and drug effects, without reporting new clinical results.

This study estimates the total cost of evaluating and treating polycystic ovary syndrome in reproductive-aged women in the United States to be $4.36 billion, suggesting more liberal screening could be beneficial.

This case report describes the first documented occurrence of a free-floating left atrial thrombus in a dog, highlighting the lack of specific therapeutic strategies for treating intracardiac thrombi in dogs.

This study found that Xinyang Tablet may improve cardiac function in LPS-induced sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction by modulating macrophage polarization and autophagy through affecting LncSICRNT1 and TRAF6 expression.

This study demonstrated that finasteride treatment reduced cardiac dysfunction and hypertrophic remodeling in mice after myocardial infarction, suggesting potential as a therapeutic strategy for heart failure.

In this study, researchers found that pregnant mice exposed to excessive androgen led to thinner ventricular walls and cardiac hypertrophy in offspring, suggesting that prenatal androgen exposure adversely affects cardiac health through reduced cardiomyocyte proliferation.

This review found that 5α‐reductase inhibitors were associated with slightly increased rates of decreased libido, erectile and ejaculatory dysfunction, gynecomastia, and mood disorders compared to placebo, though their long-term effects remain unclear.

This study found that patients with polycystic ovary syndrome have reduced heart rate recovery, an exaggerated systolic blood pressure response to exercise, and decreased heart rate variability, implying possible autonomic dysfunction.

This case report suggests that madarosis, or eyelash loss, may be associated with mitochondriopathy, expanding the known causes of madarosis to include this condition.

This study suggests that male sex and androgenic steroid use increase the risk of atrial arrhythmias in individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, especially those with desmosomal gene mutations.

This study observed that medical castration for prostate cancer prolongs the QT/QTc intervals, potentially leading to serious arrhythmias like torsade de pointes and ventricular fibrillation, even in patients without prior QT prolongation risk.

The document concludes that inflammation markers can be used in diabetes, vitamin D3 affects immune pathways, hyperthyroidism changes hormone levels, androgen levels help diagnose Adrenocortical Carcinoma, erectile dysfunction is linked to diabetes, hypogonadism is common in HIV-infected males, and hormones can be biomarkers for various conditions.

This review discusses the associations between dermatological disorders and increased cardiovascular risk, emphasizing that skin conditions with chronic inflammation may elevate the likelihood of cardiovascular diseases.

This study found that individuals with a nondipper blood pressure pattern had higher 24-hour urinary aldosterone levels, suggesting a possible link to heart issues.

Blood pressure that doesn't drop at night is linked to worse blood vessel function in people with high blood pressure.

In this study, researchers identified six novel prognostic biomarkers for bladder cancer and developed a predictive model that effectively stratifies patients into high-risk and low-risk groups based on immune cell infiltration differences and gene expression.

This review compiles data on how the apelinergic system may protect against heart damage caused by doxorubicin cancer treatment, suggesting its potential to mitigate cardiotoxicity, though further research in chronic models is needed to confirm these effects and mechanisms.

This article discusses the coexistence of amyloidosis and aortic stenosis in elderly patients and explores potential therapeutic strategies, without reporting new clinical results.

This chapter reviews studies on the side effects of cytostatics and immunosuppressive drugs, detailing various toxicities such as cardiovascular, pulmonary, and neurotoxicity, but provides no new clinical results.

This review discusses the essential roles and complex regulation of PP2A in various physiological processes and reports no clinical results; the authors highlight the need for further mouse model research to explore PP2A's therapeutic potential.
