This review examines the skin manifestations of various endocrine disorders, highlighting their underlying pathophysiology and impact on an individual's health and quality of life, without reporting new research findings.

This review discusses the potential of plant-derived phytochemicals as alternatives to 5-alpha-Reductase inhibitors in treating prostate cancer, highlighting possible benefits like reduced side effects, but it reports no new findings.

This study is the first to detail major geriatric diseases in aged Julia Creek dunnarts, particularly highlighting hormonal issues like cystic glandular hyperplasia in females and testicular degeneration in males, suggesting these conditions are linked to aging and potentially hormonal dysregulation.

This article discusses the role of androgens in metabolic and reproductive health and reports no new experimental results; the focus is on androgen receptor activation by testosterone and 5α-dihydrotestosterone.

In this study, metformin was found to reduce prolactin levels in men with hyperprolactinemia and normal hair growth but not in those with androgenic alopecia, suggesting that androgen excess may interfere with metformin's effects on prolactin.

This review discusses the dual role of testosterone in COVID-19 progression and suggests its importance in understanding the disease's mechanisms, highlighting the need for further targeted research.

This study found that Origanum vulgare extract significantly ameliorated finasteride-induced liver and kidney damage in mice by improving biochemical indices, reducing inflammation, and enhancing antioxidant status in a dose-dependent manner.

The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of male and female gonadal disorders is crucial for effective treatment and better patient outcomes.

This study found that resveratrol significantly alleviated testicular damage in male rats caused by finasteride, which otherwise led to decreased testosterone levels and various histopathological alterations in the testes.

This review examines the benefits and potential risks of androgen replacement therapy for male hypogonadism but reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the need for careful risk assessment, especially in older men.

This study found that surgical normalization of testosterone in hyperandrogenic women with ovarian androgen-secreting tumors did not significantly change body weight or insulin sensitivity after 12 months.

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 study found that exposure to finasteride impaired spermatogenesis in male Xenopus laevis by affecting sex-specific feedback mechanisms in the hypothalamus–pituitary–gonad axis.

The document concludes that sex hormones are crucial for mammalian reproduction, health, and behavior, and require more research for therapeutic use.

This study explores how SARS-CoV-2 interacts with endocrine organs and highlights specific endocrine molecules that help explain the progression and outcomes of COVID-19, especially in patients with certain metabolic conditions.

This study found that dihydrotestosterone (DHT) suppresses prostaglandin E2 and TGF-β induced IGF-I gene promoter activity in osteoblasts, suggesting complex interactions among bone growth regulators and potential complications from anabolic steroid use.

This article reviews the effects of various medications on male fertility, noting that while commonly used drugs can mostly have reversible impacts, conclusive human evidence remains limited.

New treatments for male hypogonadism are effective and should be personalized.

This study suggests that down-regulation of vasculature-related genes in dermal papilla cells from balding scalps might contribute to the development of androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that reducing testosterone levels in male mice accelerates wound healing and decreases inflammation, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for improving wound repair in elderly males.

In this study using rats, finasteride-induced DHT deficiency led to morphological changes in seminiferous tubules, linked with altered junctional protein expression, potentially impairing fertility.

This study found that finasteride significantly improved motor, EEG, and cellular changes in a rat model of thioacetamide-induced hepatic encephalopathy and prevented the development of hepatic coma.

This study provides a comprehensive analysis of anabolic-androgenic steroids, reporting that their use enhances muscle mass but is associated with significant health issues including cardiac muscle hypertrophy, liver disease, and changes in gender characteristics, emphasizing the need for patient awareness of these risks.

This article discusses the hypothalamus-pituitary-testis axis in androgen production and spermatogenesis but presents no new research findings.

This report suggests that for prostate cancer patients with cardiovascular disease, prescribing the GnRH antagonist degarelix may reduce cardiac events compared to using GnRH agonists, although prescribing should consider potential cardiac risks, particularly in patients with pre-existing conditions or older age.

This review suggests that isotretinoin's effects on severe acne and various cancers may result from apoptosis, which might also explain its adverse effects through genetic variability.

Testicular microlithiasis may increase the risk of testicular cancer and patients with it should be closely monitored.

This article reviews the discovery and various physiological effects of cyproterone acetate, reporting its established indications for several androgen-driven conditions but providing no new clinical data.

This study observed that unpigmented keratinocytes saturate quickly with foreign substance uptake compared to pigmented melanocytes, where melanin significantly enhances binding.

This review analyzes how androgens impact sexual desire and reproductive behaviors, emphasizing molecular interactions, but provides no new clinical results.
