This study reports that cancer patients experiencing chemotherapy-induced alopecia actively engage in Facebook groups for support, instructions, and product recommendations related to scalp cooling, but only 5% consult dermatologists for hair loss concerns, highlighting the platform's influence on patient treatment decisions.

This study found that Facebook hair loss treatment content is primarily advertisement-driven and seldom supported by medical evidence, with user engagement being generally low for evidence-based posts.

In this survey study, participants from scalp cooling Facebook groups reported benefiting from shared experiences, instructions, insurance advice, and product recommendations, although only a minority sought dermatologist consultations, suggesting these groups provide a significant informational platform for chemotherapy-induced alopecia patients.

This study found that drug adherence rates in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia were low, decreasing with longer treatment duration, and were higher in patients with more severe symptoms.

Online tools are effective and cost-efficient for recruiting dermatology research participants, especially among younger people.
