This study found that variations in Kv1 channel gene expression in the electric organ of Sternopygus correlate with sex differences and individual variations in their electric communication signals.

This review of polycystic ovary syndrome cases in New Zealand suggests a need for improved recording of diagnostic criteria, as general practitioners often rely on ultrasounds despite guidelines advising otherwise.

The researchers reported that both estrogen receptors ERα and ERβ are expressed in human testis, and identified two novel genes, Aven and Regucalcin, linked to estrogen and androgen regulation, which may be crucial for spermatogenesis.

This study found that severe obesity is positively associated with more severe lower urinary tract symptoms compared to moderate obesity in patients with prostatic enlargement.

This study found that men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia had larger prostate volumes and lower urinary flow rates compared to those without the condition, suggesting a potential link between AGA and urinary symptoms.
