This study found statistically significant associations between female androgenetic alopecia and certain components of metabolic syndrome, such as increased waist circumference and hypertriglyceridemia, in the Kashmiri population.

In this study, testosterone treatment was found to increase blood pressure in rats, potentially through mechanisms involving sodium and water retention in the kidneys and changes in specific gene expressions in the brain.

This review explores the relationship between androgenetic alopecia and metabolic syndrome, suggesting an association that supports considering cardiovascular risk assessments in patients with this type of hair loss.

This review examines the development, pathogenesis, and effects of insulin resistance, highlighting its connections to numerous health conditions, without presenting new research findings.

This review explores how sex differences influence the pathophysiology, incidence, and treatment outcomes of ischaemic heart disease, and emphasizes the need for more sex-specific research.

Minoxidil lowers blood pressure and increases heart efficiency, but may raise lung artery pressure in some people.

This report describes a case of refractory shock and pulmonary edema resulting from the accidental ingestion of topical minoxidil, highlighting a rare instance of poisoning.

In this study, hyperandrogenemia in young women with polycystic ovary syndrome was linked to higher blood pressure, independent of factors like age, insulin resistance, obesity, or dyslipidemia.

This review discusses the potential mechanisms by which androgens may elevate blood pressure, particularly through impacts on the renin-angiotensin system, but reports no new experimental results.

In this study of patients with obesity, the most common skin disorders observed were acanthosis nigricans, skin tags, and stretch marks, emphasizing the impact of obesity on dermatological health.

This research highlights that engineered mice lacking the vitamin D receptor show multiple health issues similar to human vitamin D deficiency, underscoring the widespread impacts of the vitamin D endocrine system.

Minoxidil affects rat fluid dynamics, altering pressure and circulation, improving blood flow and hair growth.

This review examines the development of cardiovascular risk factors related to testosterone levels in PCOS women and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that 66% of apparently healthy volunteers had some abnormality on biochemical, hematological, or electrocardiographic testing, highlighting the need for pretreatment evaluations in clinical trials.

This study observed that patients with androgenetic alopecia in a western Indian population had a significantly higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome compared to a matched control group, suggesting that individuals with this type of hair loss may benefit from screening for metabolic syndrome.

In this study, transgender adolescents treated with testosterone for a median of 12 months experienced effective virilization, including voice deepening and increased hair growth, but also showed decreased HDL cholesterol and BMD z-scores, and increased hematocrit, with no short-term safety issues reported.

This study found that older women with polycystic ovarian syndrome are more likely to experience metabolic syndrome and have different metabolic and reproductive profiles than younger women.

In this review, anabolic steroid use was reported to increase risks such as cardiovascular issues, liver damage, endocrine disruptions, and musculoskeletal injuries, with psychological impacts also noted, underscoring the need for education and preventive strategies.

This review discusses the effects of testosterone therapy for transgender men, noting desired outcomes and potential risks, but reports no new research findings; the authors highlight a lack of high-quality data due to various study limitations.

This study found that young indigenous South Asian women with polycystic ovary syndrome are more likely to be centrally obese and have metabolic syndrome, particularly with increasing age, higher BMI, and acanthosis nigricans.

This review examines the scientific evidence on the short-term safety of testosterone therapy for treating hypoactive sexual desire disorder in women, without presenting new clinical results.
