Population‐scale EDC–hormone association mapping among 4255 participants across demographic subgroups identifies phthalate metabolites as the most consistent signals associated with lower testosterone‐related markers in males. Integrative mechanistic validation prioritizes MCPP as a key phthalate metabolite linked to CYP17A1‐centered disruption of ...

ABSTRACT Background Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women, and its incidence is increasing worldwide. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a significant comorbidity in patients with breast cancer that negatively affects prognosis. Metformin, a first‐line antidiabetic drug, has been suggested to possess antineoplastic properties. This study

Association of Testosterone With Lean Soft Tissue and Handgrip Strength Across Middle‐Aged Men
ABSTRACT Background Testosterone declines by 0.4%–2% annually after the age of 30 and is potentially linked with muscle mass and strength. This study examined how testosterone levels are associated with handgrip strength (HGS) and appendicular lean soft tissue index (ALSTI) in men aged 40–49 and 50–59 years.

Sex Hormones and the Risk of Nasal Polyps: A Two‐Sample Mendelian Randomization Study
ABSTRACT Objective The pathophysiological roles of sex hormones in airway inflammation have drawn much attention recently. We aimed to explore the causal effect of sex hormones on chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and nasal polyps (NP) via a Mendelian randomization (MR) study.

In adults with 21‐hydroxylase deficiency, ongoing glucocorticoid therapy, especially dexamethasone, was the main risk factor for insulin resistance. New‐onset insulin resistance emerged early, highlighting the need for metabolic monitoring within the first 1–2 years of treatment. ABSTRACT Background Metabolic disorders, particularly insulin resistance (
