research Evaluation of Serum Vitamin-D Levels in Patients with Alopecia Areata
Vitamin D levels are not linked to Alopecia Areata.
research Pharmacological evidences for the extracts and secondary metabolites from plants of the genus Hibiscus
Hibiscus plant extracts may have health benefits like lowering blood pressure and protecting the heart.
research The diagnosis of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, based on serum basal or post-ACTH stimulation 17-hydroxyprogesterone, can lead to false-positive diagnosis
Using 17-hydroxyprogesterone levels to diagnose nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia can result in many incorrect diagnoses.
research The Role of Non-Aromatizable Testosterone Metabolite in Metabolic Pathways
Normal levels of DHT can reduce belly fat and increase muscle, but too much can lead to hair loss, prostate issues, and possibly heart disease.
research Associations between sun sensitive pigmentary genes and serum prostate specific antigen levels
Men with less sun-sensitive skin have lower PSA levels, while men with more sun-sensitive skin have higher PSA levels.
research Highly Sensitive Simultaneous Measurement of Steroid Hormone in Human Serum by Liquid Chromatography-electrospray Ionization Tandem Mass Spectrometry
A new method accurately measures nine steroid hormones in human serum with high sensitivity.
research The utilisation of cardiac risk ratio and non-HDL cholesterol markers to assess cardiovascular risk in type 2 diabetes males with lowered serum DHT
Cardiac risk markers help assess heart risk in males with type 2 diabetes and low DHT.
research Effects of the 5α-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride on Serum Levels of Gonadal, Adrenal, and Hypophyseal Hormones and its Clinical Significance: A Prospective Clinical Study
Finasteride reduces hair loss and treats BPH without major hormone changes, but may cause sexual dysfunction.
research Lysocellin, a metabolite of the novel drug ‘alopestatin’, induces G1 arrest and prevents cytotoxicity induced by etoposide
Lysocellin helps stop cell damage from etoposide and may prevent hair loss.
research The Possible Association of Female Pattern Hair Loss and Alteration in Serum Cholecalciferol Level
Low vitamin D levels can significantly contribute to hair loss, especially in women aged 35-45. Correcting these levels early may help prevent and treat this condition.
research Síndrome dos ovários policísticos: correlação dos fenótipos com as manifestações metabólicas
Older age, obesity, hirsutism, and having children increase metabolic risk in women with PCOS.
research Minoxidil and male-pattern alopecia: a potential role for a local regulator of sebum secretion with vasoconstrictive effects?
Minoxidil, a common hair loss treatment, might work by counteracting a hormone that reduces hair growth and promotes hair loss.
research Avaliação do impacto da redução significativa de peso pela dieta cetogênica de muito baixa caloria nos parâmetros metabólicos, inflamatórios, hormonais e seminais de homens obesos
A very low-calorie ketogenic diet led to weight loss and improved metabolic and hormonal health in obese men, with better sperm motility.
research A Keratinocyte-specific Epoxygenase, CYP2B12, Metabolizes Arachidonic Acid with Unusual Selectivity, Producing a Single Major Epoxyeicosatrienoic Acid
CYP2B12 enzyme in skin cells converts arachidonic acid into specific bioactive lipids.
research The effect of St. John’s wort on the pharmacokinetics, metabolism and biliary excretion of finasteride and its metabolites in healthy men
St. John's wort increases finasteride metabolism, reducing its effectiveness; use caution when combining them.
research Non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency revisited: an update with a special focus on adolescent and adult women
The update highlights that non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia is common in women with excess male hormones, requires specific hormone tests for diagnosis, and has various treatment options depending on age and symptoms.
research Assessment of the usefulness of dihydrotestosterone in the diagnostics of patients with androgenetic alopecia
DHT's role in hair loss is important, but measuring its level for diagnosis is questionable.
research A Teenage Girl with Unexpected Pubertal Changes
The girl's unexpected pubic hair growth led to a diagnosis different from complete androgen insensitivity syndrome.
research 8 Hair follicles and associated glands as androgen targets
Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.
research Serum androgens and risk of atrial fibrillation in older men: The Cardiovascular Health Study
Older men with low levels of a testosterone byproduct had a higher chance of developing an irregular heartbeat.
research SERUM-CONCENTRATIONS OF DEHYDROEPYAN- DROSTERONE-SULFATE IN MEN WITH ANDROGE- NETIC ALOPECIA
Men with androgenetic alopecia do not have elevated DHEA-S levels.
research Role of serum androgens and prostate-specific antigen levels in males with androgenetic alopecia
Higher serum androgens contribute to male pattern baldness.
research SERUM-CONCENTRATIONS OF Dehydroepyandrosterone-sulfate IN MEN WITH ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
Men with male pattern baldness don't necessarily have high levels of Dehydroepyandrosterone-sulfate, and there's no link between its levels and the severity of hair loss.
research SERUM-CONCENTRATIONS OF Dehydroepyandrosterone-sulfate IN MEN WITH ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
Men with hair loss don't necessarily have higher levels of the hormone DHEA-S, but this hormone tends to decrease with age.
research Prevalence of hyperprolactinaemia in female premenopausal blood donors
A small number of premenopausal female blood donors had high prolactin levels, often due to stress, and retesting is recommended to prevent misdiagnosis.
research Vitamin D Status Assessment: Lack of Correlation between Serum and Hair 25-Hydroxycholecalciferol Levels in Healthy Young Adults
