research (PNM-35) Recurrent priapism in a sickle cell disease patient treated with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists drugs: a case report
GnRH agonists can help manage recurrent priapism in sickle cell patients, but long-term safety is unclear.
research Adrenal 21-hydroxylase gene mutations in Slovenian hyperandrogenic women: evaluation of corticotrophin stimulation and HLA polymorphisms in screening for carrier status
The study concluded that testing hormone levels after stimulation is not reliable for identifying carriers of 21-hydroxylase deficiency; genetic testing is necessary.
research Five‐year experience in the treatment of alopecia areata with DPC
