A girl with Netherton syndrome was able to eat wheat without allergies after a special treatment.

This randomized clinical trial found that vitamin D supplementation did not significantly alter anthropometric or metabolic parameters in obese, insulin-resistant, and vitamin D-deficient women with polycystic ovary syndrome, whereas metformin effectively reduced body weight, BMI, waist circumference, total body fat, and serum glucose levels.

In this study, the methanol-ultrasound extract of Dendropanax morbifera leaf showed potential for use in functional cosmetics and hair growth products due to its high antioxidant capacity and effects on growth factor expression without cytotoxicity.

This study found that LC-MS/MS is a more reliable method than immunoassays for measuring serum 17OHP and androgen levels in women with hyperandrogenism.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome in China had elevated androgen levels compared to healthy controls, and suggests body weight management and SHBG and FAI testing are recommended for these women.

This study concluded that visits to emergency and urgent care centers for severe sunburn treatment are largely avoidable and contribute to significant healthcare costs.

This study found that androsterone glucuronate (ADT-G) was the only androgenic metabolite sensitive to detecting differences between adult women with acne and controls, and its levels decreased with systemic treatment.

This study found that the risk of urinary stone disease increased significantly in patients with severe androgenetic alopecia, and that testosterone deficiency was more frequent among these patients.

In this study, metformin improved BMI, menstrual regularity, and symptoms of hyperandrogenism in adolescents with type 1 diabetes, but did not enhance glycemic control.

This study found that women with PCOS have higher total PSA levels than controls, and the total PSA level correlates positively with testosterone and free androgen index.

This study reports a novel missense mutation in the HR gene in a 68-year-old Hungarian woman with alopecia universalis and limb deformities, suggesting a need for further research on its role in these conditions.

Among women with hirsutism studied, this research found a high prevalence of acne, particularly associated with polycystic ovarian syndrome and endocrine changes.

This study found that a continuing education program significantly improved rural nurse practitioners' knowledge about assessing, diagnosing, and managing PCOS.

This study found that women with PCOS had significantly higher hair cortisol concentrations, suggesting hyperactivation of the HPA axis may affect metabolic and inflammatory markers in those with elevated cortisol levels.

This study reported that alopecia areata mostly affects young Black African males, with very few associated pathologies observed in this population.

This study reported that women with polycystic ovarian syndrome have higher serum irisin levels, which are associated with metabolic and hormonal imbalances, including hyperandrogenism, total cholesterol, and visceral fat.

This study found that total serum IgE levels were elevated in patients with alopecia areata compared to controls, suggesting a possible involvement of IgE and Th2 cytokines in its pathogenesis.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome in the Black Sea Region had higher levels of androgens, obesity, and insulin resistance, increasing their risk of metabolic syndrome compared to healthy women.
