This thesis explores both environmental and genetic factors in prostate cancer, focusing on surrogate hormone markers, medical radiation, family history, and genetic polymorphisms related to DNA repair and hormone marker genes, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study concluded that patients with androgenetic alopecia may have a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases compared to people without this condition.

This study from Athens, Greece observed that urban living may increase prostate cancer risk, while early adulthood sexual activity might inversely relate to this risk.

This study found that high doses of cyproterone acetate were associated with an increased risk of meningioma, especially with exposure longer than one year.

This study found that gastrointestinal dysfunction is a significant risk factor for sebaceous gland diseases in adolescents, with correlations observed between these conditions and various GI symptoms.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have a higher risk for obstructive sleep apnea, primarily due to the prevalence of severe obesity, rather than the syndrome itself.

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.

In this NIH study, female donor to male recipient sex mismatch was significantly associated with the development of vitiligo and/or alopecia areata in patients with chronic graft-vs-host disease.

This study found that premature hair graying in young Turkish men and women is associated with emotional stress, alcohol consumption, chronic diseases, and a family history of graying.

This study found that current use of benzodiazepines, α1-blockers (like tamsulosin, alfuzosin, terazosin), finasteride, and possibly rivastigmine is associated with increased risk of intraoperative floppy iris syndrome in cataract surgery patients.

The authors concluded that components of metabolic syndrome were strongly associated with severe lower urinary tract symptoms in Latin American men, while alopecia was not an independent predictor.

In this study from Athens, Greece, there was no evidence linking prostate cancer with vertex baldness, smoking, coffee, or alcohol, but urban living and early adulthood sexual activity may influence risk.

This study found that patients with RASopathies have lower serum IgA and CD8 levels compared to controls, indicating a potential risk for developing autoimmune disorders.

This study found that women, younger individuals, and those with a low body mass index were more likely to develop long COVID symptoms, and even mild COVID-19 cases often experienced long-term residual symptoms.

In this study, 5-α reductase inhibitors were not significantly linked to increased rhabdomyolysis risk, but they may raise the risk of myopathy and myositis in men aged 66 and older.

In this systematic review, an increase in hemoglobin and hematocrit was associated with testosterone therapy, especially within the first year, and factors like serum testosterone levels and therapy specifics were linked to erythrocytosis development, highlighting the need for further research to guide clinical practice.

This study found no significant increase in depression risk associated with taking five-alpha reductase inhibitors for benign prostatic hyperplasia or alopecia, although further studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Females, especially over 40, are more likely to experience temporary hair loss after hair restoration surgery.

In this study, researchers analyzed lurasidone's risk profile for treating schizophrenia and bipolar depression, identifying unlisted adverse reactions like hypersexuality, restless leg syndrome, thrombocytopenia, and telogen effluvium, which show probable or possible correlations with the drug.

This article discusses the potential therapeutic use of CD133+ progenitor cells and their conditioned medium for diabetic ischemic ulcers, reporting no new results.

This population-based study found a significant association between alopecia areata and autoimmune thyroid diseases, including Hashimoto's and Graves' disease, confirming a higher prevalence of these conditions in individuals with alopecia areata.

This study found that postoperative excess weight loss and folic acid levels were independent factors influencing the severity of hair loss after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in obese patients.

This study found that in children undergoing minimally invasive pyeloplasty, failure to regularly reposition the head during surgery and a head compression duration over 3.5 hours significantly increased the risk of developing pressure alopecia, highlighting the need for improving intraoperative head positioning and protective measures.

This study found that patients with vitiligo in the United States had higher rates of autoimmune conditions, infections, and skin cancer compared to matched controls, with higher vitiligo prevalence in Asian and Hispanic populations.

This meta-analysis found that several factors are significantly associated with the presence and progression of androgenetic alopecia, including family history, smoking, alcohol consumption, poor sleep quality, being overweight, hypertension in men, insulin resistance, and high fasting insulin levels.

In this study, pediatric alopecia areata was associated with higher rates of vitiligo, asthma, and ADHD, and significantly lower levels of vitamin B12, ferritin, and TSH compared to healthy controls, highlighting the need for comprehensive evaluation.

This study observed that diffuse alopecia is the most common type of non-cicatricial alopecia in females and is significantly associated with connective tissue diseases, use of certain medications, and lower blood hemoglobin levels.
