This study suggests that insulin levels may influence ovarian volume in women with idiopathic hirsutism who have normal ovulatory cycles and androgen levels.

Ovarian hyperthecosis caused high testosterone and virilization symptoms in a 60-year-old woman, which improved after surgery.

This review discusses the clinical manifestations and diagnostic challenges of polycystic ovary syndrome in adolescents, emphasizing the importance of early diagnosis and intervention to manage symptoms effectively, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study identified a novel splice site mutation in the LIPH gene associated with autosomal recessive woolly hair, contributing to understanding the genetic basis of this condition.

This study found that hidradenitis suppurativa encounters most commonly occur with family or internal medicine providers, with frequent opiate prescriptions and low use of nonantibiotic systemic treatments.

This article presents a case study of a 16-year-old male with GAPO syndrome, characterized by growth retardation, alopecia, pseudoanodontia, and optic atrophy, who sought dental treatment for missing teeth.

This article discusses PCOS in adolescents and highlights the importance of early diagnosis and treatment to prevent long-term health complications, noting increasing adolescent obesity may worsen symptoms.

This case report describes a postmenopausal woman with androgenic alopecia and progressive hirsutism who, despite normal imaging, had significantly elevated testosterone due to a Leydig cell tumor, revealed after surgical exploration; the condition improved post-surgery, underscoring the importance of considering such tumors in similar presentations.

In this study, the researchers reported that a newly developed PYGL inhibitor, HTPI, enhanced hair growth in an ex-vivo culture by reducing oxidative damage in hDPCs and inhibiting glycogen degradation in hORSCs, showing potential as a treatment for hair loss comparable to minoxidil.

In this study, intralesional platelet-rich plasma was found to be a beneficial and safe treatment option for oral lichen planus, an inflammatory disease affecting the oral mucosa.

This review of TMJ disorders discusses the promising potential of using a combination of platelet-rich plasma and hyaluronic acid in TMJ arthrocentesis, noting significant pain reduction and improved mobility, but calls for more extensive trials to confirm long-term efficacy and safety.

This study introduces the "HoVert" technique, which generates both vertical and horizontal sections from a single biopsy to effectively differentiate lichen planopilaris from discoid lupus erythematosus in alopecia cases.

This study found that insulin resistance varies across different PCOS phenotypes, with the PCOM+MI+HA phenotype showing higher resistance than others.

This case study describes two postmenopausal women with severe androgen excess symptoms, diagnosed with ovarian hyperthecosis and stromal hyperplasia, emphasizing the challenges in differentiating these benign conditions from androgen-secreting tumors and the importance of surgical and histopathological evaluation for correct diagnosis and management.

This case report identifies a novel LIPH gene mutation linked to autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis in a Japanese boy, expanding the spectrum of known mutations associated with this condition.

This case study reports that a 16-year-old girl with hirsutism and menstrual irregularities was diagnosed with a benign steroid cell ovarian tumor, after high testosterone levels indicated a potential androgen-secreting source.

This study conducted physical examinations on fifty women with hirsutism, focusing on virilization signs, but reports no new clinical findings.

This report describes a novel mutation in the CDH3 gene in an 11-year-old Iranian boy with hypotrichosis and juvenile macular dystrophy, indicating a new genetic variant associated with the disorder.

This case series observed that macular changes from popper use can resolve completely after cessation, even in individuals with chronic use.

This article reviews hirsutism in adolescent females, discussing its hormonal basis, potential underlying conditions, and the availability of effective therapies, without reporting new research findings.

This study highlights the role of Orai1 in ameloblast differentiation and maturation, showing that its down-regulation affects cell proliferation and enamel formation during tooth development.

This study demonstrated a significant association between high lipid accumulation product (LAP) and hirsutism in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

This case report of an infant with IPEX syndrome highlights the importance of early recognition and treatment, as the patient experienced severe symptoms and succumbed before stem cell transplantation.

This study found that in a sample of female adolescents in Shiraz, the most common PCOS phenotype was hyperandrogenic with polycystic ovary syndrome, warranting further investigation due to associated risks.

This case report describes a patient with a rare combination of imperfect osteogenesis and Escobar syndrome, highlighting the genetic complexity and clinical manifestations of these conditions.

This study found that myo-inositol treatment reduced hirsutism and acne in women with PCOS by improving their metabolic profiles, including lower insulin and testosterone levels.

In this study, lower serum adiponectin levels and altered lipid profiles were observed in patients with periorbital melanosis, suggesting an association with metabolic syndrome.

This case report describes a misdiagnosed case of HAIR-AN syndrome with an unfortunate outcome, highlighting the challenges in distinguishing it from other hyperandrogenic conditions.

This study observed that osteopontin mRNA levels in rat hair follicles vary throughout the hair cycle, peaking during the catagen phase and disappearing in the telogen and anagen phases.

This research reports that partial orthokeratology combined with daytime spectacle correction effectively slowed myopic progression in high myopes, with a 63% reduction in axial elongation compared to spectacle use alone.
