This study observed that dogs with sarcoptic mange exhibited symptoms like intense itching and restlessness, along with specific haematological and biochemical abnormalities compared to healthy dogs.

This chapter discusses hypothyroidism in dogs, highlighting that most cases are due to primary thyroid gland issues and that some breeds may have a hereditary predisposition; it reports no new clinical findings.

In this case study, a 7-year-old Labrador with hypothyroidism and alopecia showed dramatic improvement and complete hair regrowth after two months of Levothyroxine and Ketoconazole treatment.

This study revisits the extensive contributions of Marie Krogh to thyroid physiology, highlighting her work that demonstrated resting metabolism changes in hyper- and hypothyroidism, her efforts to develop a thyroxine-like drug, and pioneering thyroid hormone research using guinea-pig models.

In this study, researchers observed that fasting-induced molting in laying hens led to increased thyroid hormones, which may regulate feather molting by affecting hair follicle growth through specific signaling pathways, highlighting molecular changes during induced molting.

This study suggests that low serum iron and ferritin levels may be associated with telogen effluvium in patients presenting with hair loss.

This case study found that treating a dog with primary hypothyroidism using oral levothyroxine sodium led to significant clinical improvement within six weeks.

This study conducted in Hyderabad found an incidence of 1.02% congenital goitre in goats, primarily due to iodine deficiency causing hypothyroidism, and observed significant clinical and hormonal improvement in 88.89% of cases treated with levothyroxine and potassium iodide.

In this case report, a 7-year-old Labrador with chronic alopecia, weight gain, and dermatitis, was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and treated with levothyroxine and other medications. Improvement, characterized by reduced skin lesions, was observed after two months.

In this study, researchers observed that administering the minimum dose of levothyroxine to a hypothyroid Dalmatian effectively restored normal skin condition and hormonal levels, suggesting levothyroxine's potential effectiveness in managing skin changes caused by hypothyroidism in dogs.

This study observed that specific genes in cashmere goat skin exhibit a seasonal rhythm, potentially adapting to environmental light changes, which may affect downstream gene expression and physiological processes.

This case report describes a 46-year-old female diagnosed with hypothyroidism, presenting with symptoms including severe hair loss, and treated with levothyroxine and supplements.

This article discusses factors influencing hair greying, such as thyroid hormone levels and postmenopausal changes, and suggests lifestyle adjustments for hair health; it reports no new clinical findings.

This study describes cases of diffuse alopecia and thyroid alterations in sheep, linking selenium and zinc deficiencies to decreased serum T3 and T4 concentrations and related skin conditions.

This study found that alopecia areata patients had significantly abnormal T3, T4, TPOAbs, ANA, and lower vitamin D levels compared to healthy controls.

This report describes cases of transient thyrotoxicosis potentially linked to oral retinoid treatment, suggesting a possible mechanism involving increased iodine uptake by thyroid cells.

This case report highlights that Sheehan syndrome, though rare in developed countries, can occur and underscores the importance of detailed history taking to uncover the cause of atypical presentations.

This study reported that severe hypothyroidism in two pediatric patients was associated with transient liver and kidney dysfunction, which resolved after beginning levothyroxine treatment.

This study found that females treated with atypical anti-psychotics had a higher prevalence of probable polycystic ovarian syndrome compared to normal controls.

This case report describes a rare presentation of myxedema coma in a 46-year-old woman, initially identified by acute pulmonary embolism, which was managed successfully with thyroid hormone and corticosteroid treatment.

This study observed that levothyroxine therapy in men with autoimmune hypothyroidism was less effective at reducing thyroid antibodies and hormone disruptions in those with early-onset androgenetic alopecia compared to those without hair loss.

This case report highlights that a patient with resistance to thyroid hormone was misdiagnosed as having Graves’ disease, leading to unnecessary radioactive iodine treatment.

This case report illustrates that high-dose biotin supplementation can cause false thyroid function test abnormalities in vitro, emphasizing the need to assess biotin intake before testing.

This case report emphasizes the importance of investigating physical symptoms in patients with depression, as persistent loss of libido in this patient led to the diagnosis of craniopharyngioma.

This case study suggests that marijuana use may be associated with low TSH levels without causing thyroid dysfunction in humans.

This study found that patients with alopecia areata had significantly higher serum T3 and cortisol levels compared to healthy controls, although both remained within normal ranges, highlighting potential hormonal involvement in the condition. However, no significant differences were observed in T4 and TSH levels.

This study reports that dogs with dermatoses linked to hypothyroidism displayed a significant incidence of specific haematological and biochemical alterations, such as elevated cholesterol and triglyceride levels and reduced thyroid hormones, compared to healthy dogs, with Labrador Retrievers showing the highest breed predisposition.

This review discusses the current understanding of androgen biosynthesis, mechanisms of action, and their roles in human biology, as well as related congenital and acquired disorders, but it reports no new research findings.

This study found that oral contraceptives effectively suppressed hyperandrogenemia in most patients with hyperandrogenic-insulin-resistant acanthosis nigricans syndrome, though GnRH-a therapy was beneficial for those not responding initially.

This study found significant associations between reduced levels of vitamin B12, zinc, and other vitamins, and the occurrence of hair loss in women with alopecia.
