This review discusses the clinical features of SARS in children, noting milder symptoms compared to adults, and emphasizes the importance of ongoing monitoring for long-term effects; it reports no new treatment findings.

This review discusses the causes, clinical features, diagnostic approach, and treatment options for hirsutism in women, but reports no new findings.

This study found that women experiencing diffuse hair loss had significantly lower levels of plasma sex-hormone binding globulin compared to controls, while their testosterone levels remained normal.

Amenorrhea is when a woman doesn't have periods, with primary amenorrhea starting by age 15 or within five years of breast development, and secondary amenorrhea when periods stop for three months. It affects 3-4% of women not pregnant, breastfeeding, or in menopause, mainly due to polycystic ovary syndrome, hypothalamic amenorrhea, hyperprolactinemia, and ovarian failure.

This study found that increased hair cortisol levels, indicating stress, were associated with greater hair loss in captive rhesus macaques, although the causality of this relationship remains unclear.

This review examines age-related changes in androgen levels in women and explores the rationale for testosterone replacement therapy, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses persistent sexual and nonsexual adverse effects of the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride in younger men, including erectile dysfunction, low libido, and depression. It reports no new clinical results but emphasizes further research is needed.

This study found that androgen binding in male rat livers involves specific androgen receptors, which decrease with castration and are inducible in female livers with testosterone.

This presentation reviews recent discoveries about signaling mechanisms in hair follicles and their potential influence on hair cycle control and melanogenesis, without presenting new experimental results.

The study found that finasteride increased endoplasmic reticulum stress and reduced fertility in rats, effects that were alleviated by the administration of DA-9401.

This study found that the synthetic thyroid hormone receptor modulator KB2115 significantly prolonged the growth phase of human hair follicles in culture without altering mitochondrial activity, suggesting potential as a safer hair loss treatment compared to traditional thyroid hormones.

This study found that the gene SRD5A1, associated with methylation changes due to early-life environment, may play a role in altering reproductive phenotypes in women by delaying pubertal onset and decreasing ovarian reserve.

This review discusses the presence of undeclared substances, including androgenic steroids, in sports supplements and emphasizes potential health risks, without providing new results; it advises caution and consultation on supplement use.

This review discusses the similarities in clinical, endocrine, and ultrasonographic features between PCOS and other disorders with excessive androgen secretion, emphasizing the importance of accurate diagnosis but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of androgens in women's sexual health and highlights the need for further research on androgen replacement therapy to optimize quality of life, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the changes in androgen levels with age in women and the potential benefits of testosterone replacement therapy as part of hormone replacement therapy for postmenopausal women, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews infertility diagnosis and initial management for advanced practice clinicians, emphasizing the role of midwives and advanced practice nurses, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study systematically compared pediatric and adult Cushing's disease patients, revealing more severe and earlier-onset symptoms in males, and distinct gender-specific clinical manifestations.

This study identified 374 eQTLs in scalp hair follicles associated with genes involved in metabolic, mitotic, immune processes, and responses to steroid hormones, contributing insights into genetic variation and hair traits.

In this study, patients with alopecia areata showed altered hypothalamic activity and connectivity, which may be linked to the neurophysiological basis of psychological stress experienced by these patients, as assessed by functional MRI and correlated with neuropsychological evaluations.

Environmental factors and exposure to toxins may contribute to male infertility by affecting sperm and hormone function.

In this study, women with a complete hydatidiform mole had significantly higher pre-evacuation levels of hCG, free testosterone, and DHEA-S compared to controls, which declined after HM evacuation.

This study reported that horses with pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction had improved coat condition, advanced shedding, and better quality of life when treated with blue light masks.

This study highlights how the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated stress-related dermatological issues like acne and hair loss by affecting skin and hair cycles through stress hormones, emphasizing the need for comprehensive psychoneuroendocrine-informed approaches to diagnosis and treatment.
