This study found that elevated 1-hour plasma glucose in women with PCOS was associated with increased risk of metabolic disorders and gestational diabetes, indicating it may be a useful marker for adverse metabolic status.

This review found that hormones significantly impact women's health and athletic performance, influencing the menstrual cycle, menopause, and exercise responses, while therapies like contraception and hormone replacement require personalized approaches to balance benefits and risks.

This review reports that transgender individuals undergoing hormonal therapy for gender transition face increased risks of cardiovascular disorders, brain tumors, changes in bone density, metabolic disorders, and other health issues, while highlighting the necessity of this therapy for gender transformation.

This review discusses existing literature on the effects of isoflavone in alleviating PCOS symptoms, highlighting its potential benefits in reducing testosterone levels, improving metabolic profiles, and lowering inflammation and oxidative stress, although findings have been both significant and non-significant.

This study systematically reviewed meta-analyses and Mendelian randomization studies to identify factors influencing prostate cancer risk, finding suggestive associations for physical activity, height, and smoking but no robust, convincing overlapping evidence across tested factors.

This review explores the risk factors, associated comorbidities, and psychological impacts of early-onset androgenetic alopecia, highlighting its complexity and potential implications for treatment response and overall health.

In this study, low-dose oral minoxidil was found to have a favorable safety profile for treating alopecia, with mostly mild side effects, in both general and hypertensive populations.

This retrospective cross-section study found that in a cohort of Pica patients in Iraq, 92.4% were female, and many had low levels of ferritin, hemoglobin, and vitamin D, which may contribute to the disorder by causing psychological issues.

In this study, patients with androgenic alopecia were found to have higher levels of insulin, glucose, and HOMA-IR compared to healthy individuals, suggesting distinct metabolic profiles that may contribute to the condition's development.

This case study reported that an 18-year-old woman ingested a large amount of topical minoxidil, leading to symptoms like low blood pressure, increased heart rate, and elevated liver enzymes, but recovered fully after treatment. Minoxidil toxicity may rarely cause abnormal liver enzyme levels.

In this study, depression and anxiety were prevalent in Thai women with PCOS, with hirsutism being a key factor linked to these mental health issues, suggesting a need for targeted screening.

This study found a weak positive correlation between dihydrotestosterone levels and C-reactive protein in COVID-19 patients, particularly in those with low testosterone, suggesting potential inflammatory effects.

This study found that anovulatory PCOS patients were younger, had longer menstrual cycles, and higher systolic blood pressures compared to ovulatory patients.

This randomized clinical trial found that oral contraceptives containing desogestrel were associated with more adverse effects on serum lipids and blood pressure compared to those containing drospirenone in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome.

This study found that both oral minoxidil and topical 5% minoxidil were effective and safe for treating female pattern hair loss over 24 weeks, with oral administration not being inferior to topical treatment.

This article discusses vaccination coverage for BCG, Polio, and Hepatitis B in Juiz de Fora using SUS data and reports no new results; the authors aim to hypothesize reasons for coverage variation.

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

In this study, Irish adults with severe obesity who had cervical or axillary skin tags showed higher systolic blood pressure, higher HbA1c levels, and more diabetes and hypertension, suggesting an increased vascular risk.

This study found that children with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia had elevated epicardial fat thickness, which was associated with increased carotid intima media thickness, left ventricular mass, and mitral deceleration time.

This study found that the peach gene CTG134, involved in auxin-ethylene interactions, plays a role in hormonal regulation during root hair formation in Arabidopsis and tobacco.

This study investigates the potential link between atrial fibrillation and circulating aldosterone levels related to cardiac fibrosis in patients with hypertension.

This review discusses the impact of polycystic ovary syndrome on cardiovascular risk and reports no new clinical findings.

This article discusses how vitamin D supplementation impacts human aesthetics and health, with effects varying positively or negatively based on different dermatological conditions.

This integrative literature review investigated clinical trials on using medicinal plants, herbal products, and dietary supplements for treating alopecia, noting a need for further studies due to limited chemical-pharmaceutical analyses of the plant species involved, which include Allium sativum and Rosmarinus officinalis.

This study found considerable variation in hair shaft proteomic profiles among Caucasian, African-American, Kenyan, and Korean subjects, with individual and site-specific differences observed.

This study used proteomic profiling to reveal significant individual and site-specific differences in human hair shaft proteins, which may improve the differentiation of hair based on ethnic origin and individual identity.

This study found that early-onset male androgenetic alopecia was associated with a higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome compared to age-matched controls.

This study found that in Korean patients, cardiovascular disease-related risk was significantly associated with male sex, moderate to severe androgenetic alopecia, and particularly FV-type alopecia.

In this study, patients with advanced androgenetic alopecia stages had higher carotid intima media thickness and worse aortic elasticity, suggesting a potential link to subclinical atherosclerosis.

Men with early-onset baldness may have a higher risk of heart disease.
