This mini-review discusses the role of androgens, specifically testosterone and dihydrotestosterone, in the pathogenesis of autoimmune liver diseases and reports no new results.

Testosterone was found to inhibit hair follicle epithelial cell proliferation in adult stumptailed macaques only when dermal papilla cells from bald scalps were present, and this effect was reversed by the antiandrogen RU 58841.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, genetics, and management of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia, noting subfertility and hormonal issues without providing new clinical results.

This review found that combined oral contraceptives and spironolactone are effective treatments for adult acne in women, but noted that oral contraceptives increase the risk of venous thromboembolism and require individual risk assessment before use.

In this study, ovarian SAHA was found to be independently associated with a more insulin-resistant profile and increased risk of glucose abnormalities in women with PCOS, beyond common risk factors.

This paper suggests that ketoconazole 2% shampoo may enhance finasteride's effectiveness in treating androgenetic alopecia by more completely inhibiting the dihydrotestosterone pathway.

The document concludes that using LC-MS/MS for measuring androgens is more accurate than older methods, but it needs careful validation and standardized references to be most effective.

In this study, normal weight adolescents with PCOS showed increased insulin resistance and significantly lower levels of high molecular weight adiponectin compared to controls, despite no other metabolic differences.

This review discusses the evaluation, clinical presentation, and cutaneous manifestations of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, focusing on differential diagnosis challenges with polycystic ovary syndrome, and reports no new clinical findings.

This review highlights that hyperandrogenism is a crucial factor for diagnosing PCOS during adolescence, while traditional criteria like polycystic ovarian morphology may be misleading.

This study found that hair products commonly used by Black women exhibited hormonal activity, which could impact health outcomes and contribute to health disparities.

This review discusses the diagnostic criteria and treatment options for adolescent polycystic ovary syndrome, highlighting ongoing debates and the need for further research, without presenting new clinical results.

Minoxidil promotes hair regrowth, but more research needed for effectiveness and response factors.

This study found that prenatal exposure to androgens caused long-lasting heart remodeling and left ventricular hypertrophy in female mice offspring, suggesting potential cardiac risks for daughters of mothers with PCOS.

This article reviews various hair abnormalities in adolescents and young adults and emphasizes the importance of timely diagnosis and education for optimal patient outcomes, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article describes the 25Up study on psychological and behavioral risk factors for mental illness in Australian twins and their siblings and reports prevalence data for various mental disorders.

This study found that surgical normalization of testosterone in hyperandrogenic women with ovarian androgen-secreting tumors did not significantly change body weight or insulin sensitivity after 12 months.

In this study, 96% of children with CNS tumors receiving MAPK and mTOR inhibitors experienced common, treatable skin reactions, occasionally requiring therapy adjustments.

This review discusses the role of inheritance, androgens, and microinflammation in androgenetic alopecia and suggests some plant-based folk remedies may help address these factors but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses various skin diseases with endocrinological origins and reports no clinical results, highlighting the need for interdisciplinary understanding in diagnosis.

In this study, using light masks to extend photoperiod was effective for maintaining the summer coat in horses and accelerating shedding in outdoor horses, but timing was crucial for success.

This study found that low doses of bisphenol A may increase proliferation of the ventral prostate in adult rats by altering the estrogen to androgen ratio and gene expression.

This review discusses the diagnostic challenges of androgen and estrogen-secreting adrenal tumors and highlights that the presence of metastases is the most reliable indicator of malignancy; it reports no new clinical findings.

In this study using data from young women in West Bengal, India, the researchers identified that leptin signaling impairment, insulin resistance, and specific gene mutations significantly contribute to PCOS, with obesity commonly manifesting in affected individuals.

This review addresses dermatologic health disparities in sexual and gender minority adolescents, highlighting the need for improved pediatric dermatologic care; it does not report new clinical results.

This study found that patients with non-classical 21-hydroxylase deficiency do not appear to be at risk of short adult stature despite increased bone age in childhood.

This review discusses various genetic and acquired skin diseases that can affect male fertility, highlighting the clinical management challenges and reports no new research findings.

In this study, hair restoration surgery using mini-micrograft techniques successfully improved aesthetic outcomes and patient satisfaction in women with hypotrichosis of the pubis, particularly when preoperative evaluation matched pubic hair design to individual patient preferences.

Researchers observed that dutasteride and finasteride caused structural changes in the penises of both control and hypertensive rats, with dutasteride having a more pronounced effect on the corpus cavernosum.

This study found that dihydrotestosterone (DHT) suppresses prostaglandin E2 and TGF-β induced IGF-I gene promoter activity in osteoblasts, suggesting complex interactions among bone growth regulators and potential complications from anabolic steroid use.
