This case report describes a 70-year-old woman whose obstructive sleep apnea resolved after the removal of a testosterone-producing ovarian tumor, supporting the theory that testosterone influences OSA in women.

This paper details a method for measuring testosterone metabolism into seven androgens using digital autoradiography, which offers high sensitivity and reduces the need for radioactive materials.

Finasteride significantly reduced tics and obsessive-compulsive symptoms in patients with Tourette syndrome.

This erratum addresses the long-term effects of finasteride on prostate-specific antigen levels but reports no new research findings.

Finasteride significantly reduced tics and obsessive-compulsive symptoms in Tourette syndrome patients.

This review discusses the expression of PSA in hormonally-regulated tissues and female malignancies, emphasizing its potential as a diagnostic biomarker and role in antidoping initiatives.

This study determined that a total testosterone concentration of ≥5.1 nmol/L identified androgen-producing tumors in women with severe hyperandrogenemia, while a lower threshold of ≥2.2 nmol/L was found for diagnosing pathologic hyperandrogenism in postmenopausal women.

This study found that finasteride does not increase the risk of high-grade prostate cancer but instead improves the prostate-specific antigen test's sensitivity to detect such cancers.

This study examined serum PSA levels in women with androgenetic alopecia to evaluate their potential as a marker for androgen effects on target organs.

This study found that TPA treatment transiently induces high levels of ODC in mouse epidermal cells, particularly around hair follicles, with localization reduced by retinoic acid or cycloheximide pretreatment.

In this study, serum PSA levels were higher in women with PCOS, suggesting it may serve as a marker for hyperandrogenism in this condition.

This study found that finasteride and its combination with terazosin significantly reduced PSA levels in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, whereas terazosin alone showed no clinically significant effect.

In this study, finasteride alone or combined with terazosin significantly reduced PSA levels in men with BPH, while terazosin alone did not affect PSA levels.

This study found that applying TPA to mice accelerated hair follicle regeneration by activating Akt and Wnt/ß-catenin signaling pathways, involving hair follicle stem cell proliferation.

In this study, overexpressing TSPO in the mouse hippocampal dentate gyrus led to significant anxiolytic and antidepressant-like effects, partly through increased allopregnanolone biosynthesis.

This research observed that some hypothyroid patients on adequate levothyroxine therapy continue to experience symptoms like poor concentration and hair loss, with findings suggesting an elevated anti-TPO level increases the likelihood of such symptoms, despite normal TSH levels.

This retrospective study observed no significant difference in the prevalence of incidental prostate cancer between suprapubic prostatectomy and transurethral prostate resection groups, with most tumors being well differentiated and early-stage.

This review re-evaluates the role of Serum Prostate Specific Antigen in prostate cancer diagnosis, suggesting it is most reliable for detecting cancer recurrences after treatment.

This study found that patients with BPH who received finasteride before TURP experienced reduced intraoperative blood loss and improved quality of life one month after surgery compared to those who did not.

Some people with chronic hair loss may have thyroid autoimmunity.

Finasteride may help reduce symptoms in male Tourette syndrome patients.

This case report documents a rare instance of triangular temporal alopecia in an adult woman, emphasizing the importance of correct diagnosis to avoid unnecessary treatments, and reviews the literature on TTA.

This study observed that among male patients who experienced telogen effluvium after platelet-rich plasma treatment for androgenic alopecia, there were elevated levels of TNF-α, androgen receptors, and altered 5α-reductase gene expression, suggesting these factors as potential contributors to this unintended outcome.

This study found that TNFα inhibitors can induce psoriatic alopecia, highlighting that early diagnosis and discontinuation of the drugs in some cases may prevent irreversible scalp damage.

This study found that a shampoo with a selective TAAR agonist reduced hair shedding during brushing by 31% in women and contracted the arrector pili muscle.

Tanshinone IIA helps protect tissue from low oxygen damage by activating certain cell pathways.

Finasteride may help reduce tic severity in male Tourette syndrome patients.

This paper discusses prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment controversies and advocates for individualized approaches, reporting no new findings.

This review discusses the controversial cardiovascular safety and efficacy of subcutaneous testosterone therapy in postmenopausal women, noting that its long-term use appears safe, but CV risk assessments remain disputed.

This article discusses the trichoscopic diagnosis of temporal triangular alopecia, but reports no new clinical results.
