research Association of Metabolic Syndrome With Female Pattern Hair Loss in Women: A Case-Control Study
Metabolic syndrome linked to female hair loss; waist size and high blood pressure important factors.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia and Cardiovascular Risk Factors: A Case-Control Study
Balding men have higher heart disease risk.
research Basic Mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 Infection: Implications for Endocrine Systems
SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, can affect all endocrine organs and systems, altering their function and potentially leading to disorders. Factors like diabetes and obesity increase infection risk and severity. Understanding these effects is key for effective treatment.
research Atherogenic Index of Plasma in Non-Obese Women with Androgenetic Alopecia
Non-obese women with hair loss have higher heart disease risk.
research Megestrol Acetate Increases the Proliferation, Migration, and Adipogenic Differentiation of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells via Glucocorticoid Receptor
Megestrol acetate helps fat-derived stem cells grow, move, and turn into fat cells through a specific receptor.
research Sexual Dimorphism Following In Vitro Ischemia in the Response to Neurosteroids and Mechanisms of Injury
Male tissue has more cell death than female tissue after ischemia, and some neurosteroids only protect female cells.
research Spironolactone May Reduce the Risk of Incident Rosacea
Spironolactone might lower the chance of getting rosacea.
research Testicular Steroidogenesis: Production and Regulation of Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone
Genetic defects in testosterone production can cause hormonal and developmental disorders, and more research is needed to understand androgen regulation and develop safer treatments.
research Steroid Hormones: Overview and Medical Applications
Steroid hormones are crucial for body functions and have various medical uses, but their misuse can lead to dependence.
research Female Androgenetic Alopecia and Cardiovascular Risk
Women with hair loss have higher heart disease risk and unhealthy cholesterol levels.
research Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency: A Case Report
A man's health improved after treating his undiagnosed adrenal insufficiency, which caused fatigue and weight loss.
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 Pharmacodynamic Evaluation: Endocrinology
The conclusion is that endocrinology significantly impacts medicine with various common medications used for treatment.
research Genetic Defects of Female Sexual Differentiation
Genetic mutations can affect female sexual development, requiring personalized medical care.
research Corticotropin Releasing Factor-1 Receptor Antagonism Associated With Favorable Outcomes of Male Reproductive Health Biochemical Parameters
Blocking CRF1 receptors improved male hormone levels and reduced testicular tumor size in men with a specific adrenal condition.
research Metabolic Syndrome in Androgenic Alopecia
Metabolic syndrome is more common in people with early-onset androgenic alopecia.
research Androgenetic Alopecia as an Early Marker for Hypertension
research Challenges in Treatment of Patients With Non-Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Treating non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia is complex because the benefits of hormone treatment must be weighed against potential health risks.
research Non-Biologic Immunosuppressive Drugs for Inflammatory and Autoimmune Skin Diseases
Non-biologic immunosuppressive drugs are crucial for treating autoimmune and chronic inflammatory skin diseases.
research Intracrine Androgen Biosynthesis, Metabolism, and Action Revisited
The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.
research Non-Contraceptive Benefits of Oral Hormonal Contraceptives
Oral contraceptives provide various health benefits beyond birth control, including managing menstrual issues, skin conditions, pain, and reducing the risk of certain cancers.
research New and Consolidated Therapeutic Options for Pubertal Induction in Hypogonadism: In-Depth Review of the Literature
There are various effective hormone treatments for puberty induction in boys and girls with hypogonadism, and starting treatment early is important.
research The Mechanisms of Anabolic Steroids, Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators, and Myostatin Inhibitors
Anabolic steroids boost muscle growth, SARMs increase muscle mass and bone density without side effects, and myostatin inhibitors block a protein that stops muscle growth, but each has potential risks.
