TL;DR: Assessment of aggression and activity level in 3- to 11-year-old children with CAH and in their unaffected siblings using a questionnaire that mothers completed to indicate current aggressive behavior and activitylevel suggests that early androgens have a masculinizing effect on bothaggressive behavior andActivity level in girls.

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia due to 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency
TL;DR: Prenatal diagnosis by direct mutation detection permits prenatal treatment of affected females with severe, classic 21-hydroxylase deficiency to minimize genital virilization, reducing mortality from this condition.

TL;DR: A permutation test showed that, compared to other brain areas assessed in this study, there was greater sexual dimorphism among brain areas that are homologous with those identified in animal studies showing greater levels of sex steroid receptors during critical periods of brain development.
