Effect of different starting doses of FSH on laboratory and clinical outcomes in patients with moderate AMH level
CONCLUSIONS: The starting dose of FSH in the moderate AMH population remains controversial and a higher starting dose may not lead to more benefit in laboratory and clinical outcomes.PMID:38342850 | DOI:10.1007/s42000-024-00527-0 (Source: Hormones)

Impaired sensitivity to thyroid hormones is associated with albuminuria in the euthyroid population: results from NHANES
CONCLUSIONS: In euthyroid subjects, impaired central sensitivity to thyroid hormones is associated with albuminuria. TFQI holds significant potential as an epidemiological tool for quantifying the impact of impaired central sensitivity on the risk of albuminuria.PMID:38340288 | DOI:10.1007/s42000-024-00533-2 (Source: Hormones)

The clinical significance of calcium/magnesium ratio in primary hyperparathyroidism: unveiling a clinical association
CONCLUSION: Ca/Mg and cCa/Mg ratios in particular seem more valuable in determining the presence of nephrolithiasis than the currently used 24-h urine Ca measurement. Compared to urinary Ca measurements, they are cheaper, more practical, and more accessible.PMID:38332247 | DOI:10.1007/s42000-024-00530-5 (Source: Hormones)

Priorities for efficacy trials of gender-affirming hormone therapy with estrogen: collaborative design and results of a community survey
CONCLUSION: The goals and experiences of individuals seeking GAHT-E are diverse. Future clinical trials of GAHT-E should be grounded in the needs and priorities of community stakeholders.PMID:38311658 | DOI:10.1007/s42000-024-00532-3 (Source: Hormones)

HNF1A gene mutations and premature ovarian failure (POF): evidence from a clinical paradigm combining MODY 3 and POF
We examined HNF1A expression in human fetal and adult ovaries by immunohistochemistry using a polyclonal HNF1A antibody. HNF1A protein was expressed in both the fetal and adult human ovaries. Based on these findings, we hypothesize that HNF1A participates in ovarian organogenesis and/or function and that mutations in the HNF1A gene might represent another molecular defect causing POF, possibly in combination with other genetic factors. The study underlines the importance of rare clinical paradigms in leading the way to elucidation of the pathogenetic mechanisms of rare diseases.PMID:38311659 | DOI:10.1007/s42000-024-00529-y (Source: Hormones)

Effects of letrozole alone or in combination with gonadotropins on ovulation induction and clinical pregnancy in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
CONCLUSION: Letrozole in combination with gonadotropin is superior to letrozole alone in improving ovulation induction and clinical pregnancy among PCOS patients. More trials are required to confirm our findings.PMID:38280115 | DOI:10.1007/s42000-024-00531-4 (Source: Hormones)

Antiosteoporosis therapy after discontinuation of menopausal hormone therapy: a systematic review
CONCLUSIONS: Antiresorptive therapy with either a bisphosphonate (i.e., alendronate) or raloxifene could be considered a sequential antiosteoporosis therapy after MHT withdrawal since they have been shown in studies to further increase BMD. However, no safe conclusions can be drawn from the existing literature.PMID:38236381 | DOI:10.1007/s42000-024-00526-1 (Source: Hormones)

How does exosome cause diabetes?
Hormones (Athens). 2024 Jan 17. doi: 10.1007/s42000-024-00525-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTExosomes are extracellular vesicles that are widely distributed in multiple cell types and circulating body fluids. They have a specific effect on the target cells by releasing different vesicle contents. They have recently been recognized as important means of intercellular communication, being involved, for example, in the development of diabetes by increasing β-cell apoptosis, activating autoimmunity, and regulating cytokines to affect islet β-cell function and insulin sensitivity. An in-depth study of the role of exosome in...

Poseidon and Caeneus: a case of pubertal gender inversion in Greek mythology
Hormones (Athens). 2024 Jan 16. doi: 10.1007/s42000-023-00524-9. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDisorders of sex development (DSDs) are very frequently encountered in ancient Greek mythology. One of the most striking types of DSD described in many myths is gender transformation wherein a female becomes a male or vice versa. Herein, we present via the marvelous myth of Poseidon and Caeneus a case of pubertal gender inversion. A medical interpretation of the myth whereby we attempt to form a diagnosis of this case of DSD is also presented.PMID:38225509 | DOI:10.1007/s42000-023-00524-9 (Source: Hormones)

Analytical performance of free testosterone calculated by direct immunoluminometric method compared with the Vermeulen equation: results from a clinical series
CONCLUSION: The direct method exhibited comparable performance to the calculated method, but caution should be exercised when interpreting results, particularly in females. Further studies are necessary to validate its sensitivity and specificity in larger series.PMID:38177558 | DOI:10.1007/s42000-023-00522-x (Source: Hormones)
