PCOS may have evolved as an advantage in past environments with food scarcity.

Early treatment of PCOS in teens is crucial to prevent long-term health issues like diabetes and heart disease.

This review discusses the hypothesis that polycystic ovary syndrome may originate in fetal life due to prenatal androgen exposure, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses genetic factors contributing to susceptibility and outcomes in COVID-19, including ACE, ACE2, TMPRSS2 variants, HLA genotype, and ABO blood group, but reports no new experimental results.

This review examines how genetic variants associated with polycystic ovary syndrome affect reproductive success differently in men and women, supporting the theory that intralocus sexual conflict may explain its persistence.

This study suggests that variations in PCOS phenotypes observed across different ethnic groups may be due to a genetic gradient resulting from historical human migrations and genetic drift.

This study found that while men's facial appearance, specifically attractiveness and masculinity, correlated with cardiometabolic indicators like insulin resistance and triglycerides, these links disappeared after adjusting for factors such as age, adiposity, and testosterone levels, suggesting that facial cues do not reliably indicate metabolic health.

This chapter discusses genetic polymorphisms related to phenotypes that differentiate between populations and reports no new results; it highlights the role of DNA technology in understanding human adaptation history.

This review discusses the early developmental origin of premature adrenarche and polycystic ovary syndrome and highlights potential utero-based mechanisms, reporting no new clinical findings.

Managing metabolic syndrome needs both lifestyle changes and medical treatments.

This study found that young women with PCOS exhibited altered white matter microstructure and reduced cognitive performance compared to matched controls.

This paper reviews the diagnostic criteria, associated morbidities, and possible evolutionary advantages of polycystic ovary syndrome, but does not report any new findings.

This review discusses the role of androgens in the progression of cardiovascular disease and explores novel therapeutic targets without reporting new clinical results.

This article reviews the design and objectives of the Rotterdam Study, as well as summarizes major findings, without reporting new results.

This abstract reviews the characteristics and health risks associated with polycystic ovary syndrome and does not report new findings, highlighting the syndrome's multifactorial nature.

This article discusses polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), its symptoms, and links to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, but reports no new research findings; the authors emphasize recognition of features in youth.

This review discusses the profound impact of obesity on skin physiology and dermatologic conditions and reports no new experimental results, recommending awareness and treatment strategy development for obesity-associated dermatoses.

This review discusses the diagnosis, management, and hormone treatment of transsexual individuals, and examines the risks and effects of cross-sex hormone therapy without presenting new clinical results.

In this study, 21.1% of participants had actinic keratoses, with higher prevalence in men, and certain genetic and photoaging factors were positively associated with AK, though smoking was linked to reduced risk.

This study found that cows with alopecia, ill-thrift, and infertility exhibited significant decreases in serum copper, zinc, calcium, inorganic phosphorus, magnesium, and hematological measures, indicating moderate microcytic, hypochromic anemia.

This study observed that mixed breed cows with alopecia, ill-thrift, and infertility had significant decreases in serum copper, zinc, calcium, inorganic phosphorus, and magnesium, alongside signs of anemia.

This study identified genetic variants in the Trichohyalin gene that account for approximately 6% of the variance in hair morphology among Australians of European descent.

This study investigated the TG5 gene polymorphism in Lithuanian beef cattle, finding that the CC genotype is associated with higher productivity traits, such as live weight and carcass weight, compared to other genotypes, and noted a statistically significant impact on these traits.

This study identified 11 genes associated with non-syndromic hereditary hypotrichosis in a Chinese cohort and proposed a preliminary framework for phenotype-driven candidate-gene prioritization to aid clinical evaluation.

This article suggests that male pattern hair loss might have historically served as an evolutionary signal for women to choose younger male partners, potentially improving population fitness.

This paper reviews genome-based personalized medicine developments using Web services for analyzing SNPs in reproductive potential but reports no new clinical findings.

The researchers reported two brothers with a new variant of X-linked trichothiodystrophy associated with an RNF113A gene mutation, highlighting features such as intellectual disability and growth failure, but without previously reported endocrinological or genital abnormalities, underlining the importance of genetic counseling for such variants.

This study found that specific DNA variants in the TCHH, WNT10A, and FRAS1 genes are associated with predicting straight hair in Europeans, showing high sensitivity but low specificity, especially using a neural networks approach.

This study presents a hypothesis that the EDAR V370A allele was positively selected in East Asian populations due to the stable aquatic resources in Late Pleistocene northern China, which may have offset the allele's metabolic costs and provided a selective advantage.

This study proposes a new test for genome-wide association studies that incorporates Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium into SNP analysis, demonstrating improved power and interpretability over traditional methods, as evidenced by simulations and an alopecia study dataset.
