The use of dehydroepiandrosterone-treated rats is not a good animal model for the study of metabolic abnormalities in polycystic ovary syndrome

Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2018
Objective: Hyperandrogenism is the hallmark of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The use of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)-treated rats is thought to be a suitable animal model to study PCOS.

Cortisol Cutoffs for Adrenal Insufficiency Using Elecsys II: A Systematic Review

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Adrenal insufficiency (AI) is associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality if improperly managed. Adrenocorticotrophin (ACTH) stimulation testing is the most widely used AI diagnostic test. Historically, a serum cortisol threshold of 500 nmol/L (18.1 µg/dL), derived using polyclonal assays, was widely used.

Serum dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate in assessing the integrity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis

Journal of Clinical & Translational Endocrinology, 2017
Objective: To evaluate the relationship between age- and gender-adjusted dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) levels and low-dose adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) stimulation in assessing the integrity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA ...

Müllerian Duct Aplasia in a Girl With SMARCB1‐Related Coffin–Siris Syndrome: A Rare Co‐Occurring Anomaly

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Genetic causes of Müllerian aplasia remain largely unknown. We report the first molecularly confirmed case of Coffin–Siris syndrome 3 caused by a de novo SMARCB1 variant presenting with Müllerian aplasia, supporting a potential association between BAF complex dysfunction and abnormal Müllerian duct development. Created in BioRender. Herlin, M. K. (2026)

Circadian disruption elicits sex‐specific gut microbiota, endocannabinoidome, and lipid mediator responses

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Circadian disruption via constant light induces sex‐specific remodeling of the microbiome, lipid mediators, and immune responses. Females exhibit broader gut microbiota alterations, reduced jejunal oxylipins, increased hypothalamic N‐acylethanolamines, and a more inflammatory cytokine profile. Muscle responses are sex‐ and fiber type‐dependent: females

Biochemical profiling and symptomatology of androgen deficiency in males with cluster headache: A prospective case–control study

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives/Background Cluster headache (CH) has historically been considered a male‐dominated disorder, suggesting a role for androgens in its pathophysiology. We aimed to evaluate hormone profiles and symptoms of androgen deficiency in CH.

Annual Research Review: Sex differences in conduct disorder – revisiting existing evidence and exploring future directions

Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, EarlyView.
Conduct disorder (CD) is a common psychiatric disorder in youth, characterized by severe and recurrent aggressive and antisocial behaviors and associated with substantial healthcare and societal costs. Rates of CD increase during adolescence in both sexes, with the male‐to‐female ratio narrowing to approximately 1:1.

Modulation of sebocyte function in acne: A pathway‐inclusive review

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
Acne is multifactorial, with the sebocyte acting as a central immunometabolic hub linking lipogenic, inflammatory, hormonal and barrier pathways. Mapping established and investigational therapies onto this sebocyte‐centred model offers a mechanism‐based framework that complements existing treatment paradigms and may guide more targeted, antibiotic ...

Association of adrenal function and disease severity in community-acquired pneumonia.

PLoS ONE, 2014
IntroductionRapid and accurate risk stratification in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is an unmet clinical need. Cortisol to dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) ratio was put forward as a prognostic marker in sepsis.
