This study found that early-onset androgenetic alopecia, especially with a vertex pattern, may be an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndrome in men.

This study found that hypertensive patients with severe androgenic alopecia exhibited impaired coronary microcirculation, suggesting they may face increased cardiovascular risk.

This study found that testosterone contributed to increased arterial stiffness and cardiovascular damage in female mice, linked with decreased estrogen receptor expression, and suggests implications for women with polycystic ovarian syndrome or those taking testosterone.

This study found that among transgender men undergoing long-term testosterone therapy, a severe pattern of androgenetic alopecia may indicate increased arterial stiffness, as measured by higher intima-media thickness of the carotid artery.

This study found that patients with AA who have more severe symptoms may have a higher risk of metabolic syndrome and arterial stiffness, suggesting a need for cardiometabolic disease screening.

In this study, researchers emphasized the escalating burden of peripheral arterial disease in India due to increasing diabetes prevalence, compounded by a shortage and urban concentration of vascular surgeons, necessitating that general surgeons enhance their diagnostic skills.

In this study, echocardiographic measures of cardiac function in women with polycystic ovary syndrome were found to be similar to those of healthy women.

This study found that male patients with androgenetic alopecia exhibited signs of increased arrhythmia risk, such as higher P-wave dispersion and lower corrected QT interval on ECG, suggesting potential benefits from closer cardiac monitoring.

This study found that Filipino patients with lupus typically develop myocarditis early and respond well to early immunosuppressive therapy.

This review outlines pregnancy risks in systemic lupus erythematosus and emphasizes that active lupus nephritis at conception increases the risk of flares and poor obstetric outcomes; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that bursts of ERK activation in the skin, termed SPREADs, are linked to increased cell division and help synchronize cell cycle progression in living mice.

This study found that bursts of ERK activation in the epidermis of mice were linked to cell division, supporting synchronized cell proliferation and transient ERK activity in living tissues.

This study suggests that male sex and androgenic steroid use increase the risk of atrial arrhythmias in individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, especially those with desmosomal gene mutations.

This review discusses how various reproductive factors are linked to increased risks of hypertension and cardiovascular disease, noting associations with impaired fetal growth, male hypogonadism, and effects of contraceptive use, but reports no new results.

This study found that in lamivudine-resistant hepatitis B patients, tenofovir significantly reduced HBV DNA levels faster and more consistently than adefovir, reaching undetectable levels in all treated patients by 44 weeks.

This article reviews applications of optical coherence tomography techniques in medicine, including for diagnosing androgenic alopecia and monitoring blood coagulation, but provides no new clinical results.

COVID-19 can cause different types of hair loss, with telogen effluvium being the most common.

This study compared the echocardiographic profiles of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome to those of healthy subjects using conventional methods and tissue Doppler imaging, but it reports no specific findings here.

This article reviews the objectives and design of the Rotterdam Study and summarizes key findings across its focus on various diseases, without reporting new experimental results.

This review emphasizes the need for comprehensive guidelines to address the cardiometabolic and psychological features of polycystic ovary syndrome, alongside its reproductive aspects, and reports no new results.

This paper reviews the diagnostic criteria, etiological factors, and treatment approaches for PCOS, highlighting the importance of considering metabolic issues such as insulin resistance and obesity, but reports no new findings.

This article outlines the rationale, design, major findings, and updated objectives of the ongoing Rotterdam Study, without presenting new research data.

This study highlights the potential increased frequency of advanced liver disease in obese PCOS patients with NAFLD and underscores the importance of lifestyle modifications as initial treatment.

Among obese women potentially eligible for combined oral contraceptives, this study observed a higher frequency of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in those with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Minoxidil improves blood flow and vessel flexibility, potentially helping with vascular stiffness.
