GlossaryNO RESULTS (absorbing interior)

indicates a test or search found no significant findings

"NO RESULTS" typically indicates that a search or test did not yield any findings or data. In the context of hair and alopecia, it might mean that a diagnostic test or treatment trial did not show any significant changes or improvements. For example, if a new medication for alopecia is being tested and the outcome is "NO RESULTS," it means the medication did not produce any noticeable effect on hair growth or hair loss.
