research Androgen treatment in women
Testosterone therapy can help improve sexual function, mood, and bone density in women with low androgen levels, but more research is needed on long-term safety.
research Calcineurin-based immunosuppression in renal transplantation : focus on efficacy, the role of steroids, and the cardiovascular risk
Tacrolimus causes fewer acute rejections than cyclosporin A in kidney transplants but doesn't necessarily improve kidney function after one year; cardiovascular risks and side effects vary between the two drugs.
research The murine hair follicle is a melatonin target
Melatonin directly affects mouse hair follicles and may influence hair growth.
research Australian Hair and Wool Research Society Cutaneous Biology and Endocrinology Workshop
The workshop highlighted the genetic links and psychological impacts of hair loss and skin disorders.
research Pilosebaceous Unit (PSU)
Androgens and other hormones affect hair growth and skin conditions like acne.
research Women with clinically significant hirsutism always have detectable endocrinological abnormalities
Most women with excessive hair growth have a hormonal cause.
research Dermatological drugs and cosmetics
Some cosmetics and dermatological drugs can cause allergic reactions and side effects, like skin irritation and systemic issues.
research Pattern Baldness: Its Genetics Revisited
Pattern baldness is likely caused by a dominant gene influenced by testosterone levels, making it more common in men.
research P138 Hormonal parameters in androgenetic alopecia of the male
Hormonal differences affect male pattern baldness.
research Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays for doping control of 5α-reductase inhibitors finasteride and dutasteride
New tests detect finasteride and dutasteride in urine quickly and easily.
research Relapse of hirsutism following long‐term successful treatment with oestrogen–progestogen combination
Most patients experienced hirsutism again after stopping hormone treatment, indicating long-term treatment is needed to maintain results.
research Endocrine treatment of benign prostatichypertrophy: Current concepts
New hormonal treatments for enlarged prostate show promise for safer, effective non-surgical options.
research Design and Validation of a Sensitive Multisteroid LC-MS/MS Assay for the Routine Clinical Use: One-Step Sample Preparation with Phospholipid Removal and Comparison to Immunoassays
The new LC-MS/MS method is more accurate and reliable than traditional immunoassays for measuring steroids in serum.
research Invalidation of a commercially available human 5α-dihydrotestosterone immunoassay
The DHT immunoassay is unreliable due to high cross-reactivity with testosterone.
research Performance of an interferon-γ release assay-based test for cell-mediated immunity to SARS-CoV-2
The IGRA test effectively detects past SARS-CoV-2 exposure, especially using nucleocapsid peptides.
research The use of auto-antibody testing in the evaluation of interstitial lung disease (ILD) – A practical approach for the pulmonologist
Auto-antibody testing is a useful but not definitive tool in diagnosing interstitial lung diseases, and using a specific algorithm could make testing more cost-effective.
research The Application of the Insulin to C-Peptide Molar Ratio (ICPR) in Primary Screening for Insulin Antibodies in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients: A Further Quantitative Study on the Relationship Between ICPR and Insulin Antibodies
2h-ICPR can help screen for insulin antibodies in type 2 diabetes patients.
research A Nonredundant Human Protein Chip for Antibody Screening and Serum Profiling
The technology can help diagnose and subtype autoimmune diseases by identifying specific autoantibodies.
