January 2022 in “IntechOpen eBooks” This study suggests that while PCOS phenotype does not affect oocyte quality, a combination of hyperandrogenism and chronic anovulation negatively impacts cumulative pregnancy rates in assisted reproduction.
December 2025 in “Biology” In this study, researchers observed that chronic stress affected wild-derived house mice differently by sex, with females showing less weight gain and distinct behavioral changes, while males exhibited higher hair corticosterone levels, suggesting divergent coping strategies and implications for sex-specific stress assessment protocols.
October 2025 in “Preprints.org” In this study, chronic unpredictable stress affected male and female wild-derived house mice differently; stressed females gained less weight, had long grooming times, and lower immobility in tests, while stressed males showed increased hair corticosterone levels and shorter immobility times.
January 2024 in “Journal of Cosmetics Dermatological Sciences and Applications” This study found that 23.8% of participants with pattern hair loss had occipital involvement, with higher rates in females (35.6%) compared to males with early-stage hair loss (12.1%), illustrating significant gender differences in hair loss progression.
