In this study, a single dose of PTH–CBD produced a sustained increase in bone mineral density for up to a year in mice, indicating its potential as an osteoporosis treatment.

This study found that androgen signaling has complex effects on bone formation in male AR3.6-transgenic mice, with varying impacts based on the embryonic lineage of cells.

This study observed that while betaine supplementation decreases total homocysteine and increases methionine levels in a mouse model of CBS deficiency, it is not as effective as methionine restriction in reversing associated phenotypes.

This review discusses the relationship between vitamin D and various skin diseases but reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need to assess and correct vitamin D deficiencies.

This review discusses dietary manipulation strategies in a mouse model of CBS deficiency and reports no new results; the authors emphasize the importance of understanding gene-diet interactions.

This study found that 50% of patients with patchy alopecia areata who underwent chronic intralesional triamcinolone acetonide therapy had abnormal bone mineral density, suggesting the need for monitoring and preventive measures.

This study observed that balding was associated with lower total body BMD in men and higher hip BMD in women, possibly due to estrogen use in the latter group.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome had a higher risk of fractures, including osteoporotic and specific types like spine and forearm fractures, compared to those without the condition.

This study found that intramuscular triamcinolone acetonide may be an effective and safe treatment option for managing refractory alopecia areata, showing a 63% response rate in patients and hair regrowth negatively correlated with initial scalp involvement.

This study found that bolandiol increased lean body mass and bone mineral density in castrate adult male rats, exhibiting tissue selectivity and acting through multiple receptor pathways with less potency compared to other androgens.

This case report describes a young female with a rare combination of 46,XX gonadal dysgenesis and MRKH syndrome, highlighting associated infertility challenges.

This case study found that in a male-to-female transgender individual, long-term cyproterone use led to decreased bone mass, which improved with additional oestradiol treatment, highlighting the anabolic role of oestrogens on bone health.

This study found that Si Jun Zi Tang may have anti-aging effects in mice, linked to inhibition of the PI3K-AKT and P38 MAPK signaling pathways.

This case report describes a 30-year-old male with a late diagnosis of Kallmann's syndrome, highlighting the necessity of hormonal therapy to reduce the risk of osteoporosis and bone fractures despite the patient's acceptance of his physical appearance.

This review discusses the role of glucocorticoids in treating severe inflammatory disorders and highlights their potential adverse effects, recommending dosage management to minimize these risks; no new clinical results are reported.

This case report describes a rare instance of a patient with anorexia nervosa who was subsequently diagnosed with Cushing's syndrome, highlighting diagnostic challenges due to overlapping symptoms.

The document concludes that individualized treatment and lifestyle changes are important for managing menopause symptoms and health risks.

This study found that US adults with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia most preferred a hypothetical adjunctive therapy that prevents glucocorticoid-induced weight gain over other potential benefits.

This review in SEDA Volume 40 summarizes new adverse reaction data for diuretics published in 2017, highlighting specific risks such as fractures with loop diuretics and hyperkalemia with spironolactone.

Patients with Focal Dermal Hypoplasia often experience skin, nail, hair, and bone issues, and may benefit from calcium and vitamin D supplements.

This report highlights that Klinefelter syndrome is often underdiagnosed due to phenotypic variability and emphasizes the importance of thorough physical examinations to improve diagnostic timing.

In this case report, a 67-year-old woman experienced patchy hair loss, likely related to denosumab treatment for osteoporosis, as other potential causes were ruled out; stopping denosumab led to hair regrowth following intralesional triamcinolone treatment, suggesting a potential denosumab-induced alopecia areata.

This report discusses two cases of kidney transplantation in transgender patients and highlights the complexities of managing gender-affirming care alongside post-transplantation health, including hormone therapy and associated risks.
