This report describes a rare case of alopecia areata universalis developing in a child during the recovery phase of phenobarbital-induced anti-convulsant hypersensitivity syndrome, which suggests a mechanism involving lymphocyte-related immune responses.

This study found that Caesalpinia bonduc seed extracts significantly reduced prostate weight and improved prostate tissue morphology in Wistar rats with testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This study found that chronic stress may inhibit hair follicle growth and melanogenesis in mice through modulation of the central HPA axis, with C57BL/6 mice appearing most sensitive to these effects.

This chapter reviews hyperadrenocorticism in ferrets, covering its causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options, but reports no new research findings.

This study measured plasma testosterone glucosiduronate levels and found no overlap in those with hyperandrogenism compared to normal females, despite normal testosterone and dihydrotestosterone levels in half of the affected patients.

In this study involving adult mice, the researchers identified that double-stranded RNA-mediated activation of toll-like receptor 3 stimulates wound-induced hair neogenesis, potentially reflecting mechanisms used in facial rejuvenation treatments.

In this study, plasma levels of MSH and cortisol in patients with alopecia areata did not show significant changes compared to healthy controls.

This article discusses androgenetic alopecia as a potential early marker for benign prostatic hyperplasia but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that restoring hypothalamic NPY levels in mice delayed aging-related characteristics such as fat loss, hair loss, and memory decline, suggesting that maintaining these levels could be important for counteracting aging and its effects.

This study found that low-intensity exercise improved pain relief in aged rats through increased brain allopregnanolone levels, while high-intensity exercise was effective in both adult and aged rats via a different mechanism.

This case report observed that after 6 months of treatment with topical cetirizine and oral vitamin D, hair density and quality improved in three girls with congenital hypotrichosis due to ectodermal dysplasia.

This study found that oligo-amenorrhea/menstrual irregularity in women is associated with an increased risk of overall cardiovascular disease, coronary heart disease, and myocardial infarction, while evidence linking hyperandrogenism or polycystic ovaries to cardiovascular disease remains mixed or unexplored.

This case report describes a 45-year-old woman with persistent fatigue and confusion following hypertension treatment, who developed pulmonary embolism four weeks later.

This study found that the penta-peptide Gly-Pro-Ile-Gly-Ser increased the proportion of thick hair and improved baldness appearance in Japanese men with androgenetic alopecia.

In a rat model of benign prostatic hyperplasia, this study found that purple corn extract may improve symptoms by inhibiting prostate enlargement, reducing androgen receptor signaling, and exerting anti-inflammatory effects.

This study found that high-dose pterostilbene potentially reduced prostate hyperplasia and had strong antioxidant effects in male rats with benign prostatic hyperplasia, suggesting it might be more effective than vitamin C and resveratrol in similar contexts.

This case report describes a patient with lamotrigine-associated drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome requiring prolonged and complex treatment, with observed complications including extensive alopecia areata and autoimmune thyroiditis.

This study suggests that maternal hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance may induce ferroptosis in the gravid uterus and placenta in rats, but through distinct molecular mechanisms.

Flutamide-induced hypospadias in rats slows down early wound healing.

This review discusses the challenges in diagnosing different causes of adult androgen excess and outlines current screening and management strategies but reports no new findings.

This case study reports that low-dose testosterone therapy improved libido and sexual functions in a 36-year-old fragile X carrier female with hypoactive sexual desire disorder when monitored regularly for lab parameters.

This research re-analyzed single-cell gene expression data from a mouse model, confirming that certain genes involved in the EDA-EDAR and WNT pathways are crucial for skin appendage development, suggesting that their restoration may mitigate the effects of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia in children.

In this study, researchers found that a specific genetic variant in the INSR gene is linked to severe insulin resistance and hyperandrogenemia in type A insulin resistance syndrome, suggesting the benefit of exon sequencing for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

This article is a letter to the editor discussing late unexpected consequences of COVID-19 infection in individuals who survived acute hypoxic respiratory failure and includes no new research results.

This study observed that women with cicatricial hair loss had an increased risk of hypertension, which may share overlapping biological origins.

This review analyzes 873 cases of female hyperandrogenism, primarily attributing it to polycystic ovarian syndrome, and explores sample testing for suspected neoplasms but reports no new clinical findings.

Testosterone therapy can improve sexual function in women but long-term safety is unclear.

This letter to the editor references a study on using dihydrotestosterone gel before hypospadias surgery but itself contains no new findings.

This article describes a case of severe hyperandrogenism in a 35-year-old woman where high-resolution imaging ruled out tumors, and treatment with cyproterone acetate normalized testosterone levels.

In this review, the authors discuss various skin conditions linked to hyperandrogenism, such as acne and alopecia, with a focus on androgen-targeted therapies, suggesting these are generally more effective than non-androgen-targeted options.
