This review examines the long-term health risks of anabolic-androgenic steroid abuse in athletes, reporting various physical and psychological side effects without sufficient benefits.

This article discusses the various roles of steroids in vertebrate organ systems and notes several glucocorticoids that were among the Top 200 Drugs by sales in the 2010s, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This article discusses the role of the androgen receptor in regulating development and homeostasis, and reviews treatment approaches for conditions related to hormone imbalances, without reporting new clinical findings.

This study identified significant trends in interest around selective androgen receptor modulators, with increasing attention contrasting stagnant or declining interest in post-cycle therapies and anabolic steroids, and calls for clinicians to use social and prescription data to adjust treatment protocols accordingly.

This study assessed the potential for Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion power in Fiji, finding higher power output and efficiency during summer due to greater temperature differences between surface and deep sea waters.

This review discusses the multifactorial causes of female sexual dysfunction and reports no clinical results; it emphasizes the need for thorough evaluation before considering androgen therapy.

This narrative review highlights that endurance, skill-oriented athletes, and physique-oriented competitors such as bodybuilders face accelerated degradation of fillers and botulinum neurotoxin due to elevated basal metabolic rates and other factors, and raised concerns about psychological conditions like body dysmorphic disorder in these populations.

This review outlines the major health consequences of anabolic-androgenic steroid abuse, with a focus on sexual and reproductive issues, and suggests management prioritizes cessation and relapse prevention due to lack of robust randomized trials.

This review discusses the cardiovascular risks and events associated with anabolic-androgenic steroid use, suggesting the need for further research on some effects.

This study found that a nomogram prediction model based on clinical characteristics, bone metabolism, and ovarian function can effectively predict the treatment response to long-acting GnRHa in girls with idiopathic central precocious puberty.

This study used a zebrafish model and advanced mass spectrometry to identify 11 metabolites of epristeride, revealing significant effects on purine metabolism and aromatic amino acid biosynthesis, which may aid in developing anti-doping detection methods.

This review discusses recent studies on the hepatotoxic effects of anabolic androgenic steroids and selective androgen receptor modulators, including liver damage, tumors, and related conditions, and reports no new primary research results.

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 highlights that human hair is a valuable biological matrix for clinical and toxicological analyses, demonstrating its applicability in detecting various active substances from different pharmacological classes.

This handbook of dermatology provides a comprehensive practical manual for dermatologists, but reports no new research findings.

Acne can appear or persist in adulthood due to hormonal changes, external factors, or substance use, and requires appropriate treatment.

This review discusses drugs and mechanisms possibly responsible for chemical- and drug-induced hair loss but presents no new research findings.

Sex hormones affect reproduction, sexual development, and oral health, and it's important for dental practitioners to understand their effects and interactions.

The document explains various skin conditions and their treatments.

This review discusses hormones that affect acne and highlights a statistically significant link between a low-glycemic-load diet and reduced acne activity, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study demonstrated that benzothiazepines, such as diltiazem and JTV-519, exert anxiolytic-like effects through allopregnanolone biosynthesis in mice, similar to carbamazepine.

This study found that midazolam, unlike clonazepam, increased neurosteroid levels and affected synaptic inhibition and plasticity in rat hippocampal neurons, suggesting unique actions via dual receptor activation.

This systematic review explored the potential of cetirizine, an anti-inflammatory antihistamine, as a complementary treatment for androgenetic alopecia, reporting that it might help prevent hair follicle miniaturization by reducing inflammation and modulating immune activity, without notable side effects.

This study found that 4-MA is a potent inhibitor of testosterone 5α-reductase in human tissues, promising potential for treating androgen-dependent skin conditions like male pattern baldness.

This study found that the antiseizure activity of midazolam primarily occurs through synaptic GABA-A receptors, with no significant involvement of endogenous neurosteroids or extrasynaptic receptors.

Olanzapine reduces stress-related anxiety in rats when given acutely.

This study found that enhanced neurosteroid synthesis likely mediated by the translocator protein contributed to the anticonvulsant action of midazolam in mice.

This guideline summary, endorsed by six Spanish pediatric societies, outlines consensus recommendations for managing childhood asthma, emphasizing diagnosis, maintenance treatment with low-dose inhaled corticosteroids, and patient education for effective control.

This study suggests that the neurosteroid allopregnanolone contributes to stress resistance in mice, and the ALLO mimetic drug alfaxalone may offer anxiolytic benefits without muscle-relaxant effects.
