    TLDR Older male COVID-19 patients are more likely to experience hair loss.
    The study "Effect of age and gender on alopecia in patients hospitalized with COVID-19" analyzed data from 281 patients and found a significant correlation between age and androgen alopecia levels in male patients. Additionally, an association was found between gender and androgen alopecia prevalence. The data was collected from four existing studies and a linear regression model and Chi-square test were used to explore the effects of age and gender on alopecia levels in patients hospitalized with COVID-19. These findings could potentially help in understanding alopecia prevalence in other patients.
