Follicular Red Dots in Areas with Anatomic Colocalization of Alopecia Areata and Vitiligo

The document discussed the follicular red dot pattern, a specific feature of scalp lesions in active discoid lupus erythematosus, which includes symptoms like loss of follicular ostia, follicular keratotic plugs, and arborizing vessels. It contrasted this with alopecia areata trichoscopy, characterized by black dots, yellow dots, dystrophic hairs, tapering and exclamation mark hairs, cadaverized hairs, and short vellus hairs. The study aimed to explore the colocalization of alopecia areata and vitiligo, but access to the full article required a payment or membership login.
