This study observed two distinct phenotypes among North Indian women with PCOS: obese hyperinsulinaemic dysglycemic women from Delhi and lean hyperandrogenic women from Srinagar, despite being in the same region.

This study reports an increased frequency of the DI genotype of the ACE gene polymorphism among women with PCOS, notably in those with hyperandrogenism, and an association of the II genotype with insulin resistance.

This case series describes six women with both PCOS and Graves' disease, suggesting a possible shared underlying cause for their co-occurrence.

This study determined that the upper normal cut-off levels for free testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, and total testosterone among reproductive-age women in China are 26 pmol/L, 4.92 μmol/L, and 2.39 nmol/L, respectively.

In this study, researchers established five new immortalized human dermal papilla cell lines from a male with androgenetic alopecia, which may serve as valuable tools for hair research.

This review discusses hypopituitarism's bidirectional relationship with COVID-19 due to metabolic comorbidities and pituitary risks, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses recent genetic findings on hormonal signaling pathways in androgenetic alopecia, reporting no new study results but highlighting the need for further investigation.

This study describes a case where finasteride treatment for benign prostatic hypertrophy was associated with gynecomastia in a 62-year-old man, which resolved after the drug was discontinued.

This study found that increasing the follicle number criteria for diagnosing PCOS to 25 per ovary excluded some women who continue to show evidence of metabolic risk.

This study found that irregular menstrual cycles in Brazilian adolescents were significantly associated with a higher occurrence of metabolic syndrome and polycystic ovary syndrome indicators.

This article reviews the challenges in diagnosing mild hyperandrogenism in adolescent girls, discussing potential causes like PCOS and treatment options, but reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that androstendione and DHEA are useful indicators for diagnosing hyperandrogenemia in hirsute women, while DHEAS was not found to be helpful.

This study found that the vitamin D receptor, but not its ligand, regulates genes involved in hair cycle progression, suggesting a role in integrating hormone signaling pathways for hair and epidermal functions.

This study found that in men with sexual dysfunction, use of 5ARI may reduce sexual drive and spontaneous erections without worsening pre-existing erectile or ejaculatory issues.

This article reports on a case where a 26-year-old woman with acromegaloidism was found to have X-tetrasomy, suggesting it should be considered in differential diagnoses due to its potential impact on growth-related genes.

This study found that L-ascorbic acid 2-phosphate could reduce DHT-induced DKK-1 expression in balding scalp cells, suggesting potential for treating androgen-driven hair loss.

In this study, researchers found that interaction between transcription factor EBF1 and gene WNT10A, influenced by a genetic variant, may play a role in hair shaft formation and anagen shortening in male pattern baldness.

This study suggests that genetic variations in the AMH signal pathway may be linked to susceptibility and phenotype variations in PCOS among women with insulin resistance.

This study found no difference in bone mineral density between young women with PCOS and age- and BMI-matched controls, but BMI significantly influenced BMD in women with PCOS.

This review highlights that Cyproterone acetate combined with ethinylestradiol is highly effective for treating severe acne and hirsutism in women with hyperandrogenism, and it also provides benefits for cycle control and mood improvement, according to the analysis of 78 studies.

This study found that higher Lnk expression in PCOS patients may contribute to insulin resistance by inhibiting insulin signaling pathways.

This study reports that melanocytes form a defined photoresponsive network in the skin that reads environmental light cycles and may influence the sleep-waking cycle similar to the pineal gland.

This study reported that the IL1A 4-bp indel polymorphism is associated with a reduced risk of alopecia areata in Chinese populations, possibly through miR-122 mediated regulation of IL-1α expression.

This review discusses dermatologic signs in childhood endocrine disorders and highlights their importance in early diagnosis and treatment, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This article discusses the role of suction-assisted lipectomy (SAL) and the hCG method in obesity management, highlighting the speculative benefits of hCG but reporting no new clinical findings.

Both methods improve hair density and thickness; double-spin may be more effective.

This study found that finasteride treatment in males with androgenetic alopecia was linked to significant changes in sperm parameters and increased testosterone levels, but no sexual dysfunction was observed, and sperm parameters returned to baseline after treatment stopped.

This review highlights the eye and skin manifestations of endocrine-related metabolic diseases but provides no new clinical results.

This study found a significant association between the IRS-2 gene variant and an increased risk of PCOS, especially in non-obese women in the Chinese population from Taiwan.

This study suggests that mammalian hair follicles may serve as a viable and non-invasive system for diagnosing traumatic brain injury, reflecting similar molecular responses observed in other tissues.
