research Impact of metformin and rosiglitazone treatment on glucose transporter 4 mRNA expression in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
Metformin and rosiglitazone both improved insulin use and hormonal symptoms in women with PCOS.
research Familial and Sporadic Porphyria Cutanea Tarda
Most patients with Porphyria Cutanea Tarda had skin blisters and were often affected by hepatitis C and alcohol abuse, with differences between familial and sporadic cases.
research The Efficacy of 24-Month Metformin for Improving Menses, Hormones, and Metabolic Profiles in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Metformin improves menstrual cycles and hormone levels in women with PCOS, mostly within the first 6 months.
research The quantification of reproductive hormones in the hair of captive adult brown bears and their application as indicators of sex and reproductive state
Measuring reproductive hormones in brown bear hair could help identify their sex and reproductive state, but better collection methods or lab techniques are needed.
research Non-scarring patchy alopecia in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus differs from that of alopecia areata
Hair loss in lupus is different from hair loss in alopecia areata and may indicate lupus activity.
research Assessment, diagnosis and treatment of a patient with hirsutism
A combined drug and laser treatment improved hirsutism in a PCOS patient, also enhancing her heart health and requiring regular liver and kidney checks.
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 Gender‐affirming hormone therapy for transgender and gender‐diverse adults in Australia
Gender-affirming hormone therapy improves mental health and gender incongruence but requires careful management of cardiovascular and cancer risks.
research Finasteride treatment and neuroactive steroid formation.
Finasteride treatment can decrease certain steroids and increase others, possibly leading to depression symptoms in some cases.
research RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN ALOPECIAS
Recent hair loss research shows some progress, especially in understanding male pattern baldness, but effective treatments for many types of hair loss are still lacking.
research Animal models for male pattern (androgenetic) alopecia.
The stump-tailed macaque is a good model for studying human hair loss, but it's expensive and hard to find, while rodent models are promising for understanding hair growth and finding new treatments.
research Problems in pattern alopecia
Female pattern hair loss diagnosis is challenging and should use dermoscopy and histopathology instead of pattern recognition, as hormones may not always be the cause.
research Evaluation of healthcare for transgender veterans
The healthcare for transgender veterans could be better with a more unified team approach.
research Azathiopine for the Treatment of Extensive Forms of Alopecia Areata: A Systematic Review
Azathioprine may help treat severe alopecia areata, but more research is needed.
research Exploring phytoandrogens: A review of their potential in health and medicine
Phytoandrogens from plants may help treat low testosterone naturally.
research Identification of two additional novel mutations in the AR gene associated with severe forms of androgen insensitivity syndrome
Two new mutations in the AR gene linked to severe androgen insensitivity were found.
research Telogen hair loss and androgenetic‐like alopecia in GAPO syndrome
A boy with GAPO syndrome had hair loss similar to male pattern baldness without hormone issues, possibly due to skin or blood vessel problems.
research The Hormonal Background of Hair Loss in Non-Scarring Alopecias
Hormones like androgens, estrogen, thyroid hormones, and stress hormones can contribute to hair loss, and treatments target these hormonal imbalances.
research Cloning, computational analysis and expression profiling of steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 (SRD5A1) gene during reproductive phases and ovatide stimulation in endangered catfish, Clarias magur
The research identified and described a gene important for hormone conversion in endangered catfish, which varies in activity during different reproductive stages and after hormone treatment.
research Hyperandrogenemia in an ethnically heterogeneous cohort of Midwestern United States diabetic gestations
Exposure to fatty acids significantly increased androgen levels in female dogs, suggesting a link to conditions like insulin resistance and PCOS.
research MON-203 Dermatological Effects Of Hormone Replacement Therapy
Hormone Replacement Therapy improves skin health in postmenopausal women by boosting collagen and hydration.
research In-silico screening of potential anti-androgenic and anti-estrogenic phytocompounds from Saraca asoca for polycystic ovary syndrome treatment
Procyanidin B2 and leucopelargonidin from Saraca asoca may help treat PCOS by balancing hormones.
research Advances in mitochondria-centered mechanism behind the roles of androgens and androgen receptor in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism
Androgens and androgen receptors are important for metabolic health, affecting how the body uses glucose and fats through mitochondrial function.
research Review on methods and mechanisms available for producing poly cystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in animal models: experimental purpose (pre-clinical studies)
The document concludes that there are multiple ways to create PCOS in animals for research, which helps understand and treat the condition.
research In response to the letter to the editor by Soha Ghanian et al. re our publication “Shorter androgen receptor polyQ alleles protect against life-threatening COVID-19 disease in European males”
The authors maintain that shorter androgen receptor alleles may lead to milder COVID-19 by positively affecting the immune response, not due to changes in testosterone levels or activity.
research Clinical and epidemiological characteristics and hormonal profile of adult females with acne vulgaris: a cross-sectional study from a tertiary care hospital
Most adult females with acne do not have hormonal imbalances, but some show signs of excess male hormones.
research P6590Androgenic effects on ventricular repolarization: a translational study from pharmacovigilance databases to iPSC-cardiomyocytes
Androgen-deprivation therapies increase the risk of certain heart conditions, but testosterone treatment may help.
research A cornerstone of hematological science
The document concludes that accurately identifying leukemia types is crucial, and the risks of cancer from finasteride need careful evaluation against its benefits.
