CME Examination: Case-Based Posttest on Hair Loss Conditions

The document provided instructions for claiming CME credit through a case-based posttest related to dermatology, specifically focusing on hair loss conditions. It included two patient cases: a 25-year-old Korean woman with diffuse scalp hair loss and a 10-year-old boy with patchy alopecia and vitiligo. The questions aimed to diagnose the conditions and assess the prognosis and treatment options. The first case likely pointed to a diagnosis of acute diffuse and total alopecia with a generally favorable prognosis for recovery. The second case involved assessing the likelihood of progression to more severe forms of alopecia, with younger age at onset being a less favorable prognostic factor.
