Patient history is key in diagnosing hair loss types.

This study reported that using the Sinclair Shedding Scale and intralesional corticosteroid injections may help diagnose and manage alopecia areata incognita in women experiencing excessive hair shedding without clear diagnostic indicators.

In this case study, researchers observed that gabapentin may cause alopecia, as a patient developed significant hair loss shortly after starting the medication for neuropathic pain, which reversed upon discontinuation.

This study observed that valproic acid treatment led to a significant reduction in aggressive and impulsive behaviors among patients with acquired brain injury, with varying effects based on cognitive impairment degree; the treatment was generally well-tolerated, though some patients experienced temporary side effects.

This paper discusses anagen effluvium, a reversible non-scarring hair loss often triggered by certain chemotherapy drugs, but presents no new clinical results.

Anesthesia makes hair restoration surgery painless.

CD8+ virtual memory T cells may cause hair loss in alopecia areata.

This case report describes successful treatment of valproate-induced hyperammonemia in a 79-year-old man using lactulose, marking the first such documented use for this condition.

This case report describes a woman who experienced complete but temporary scalp hair loss after a massive overdose of divalproex, suggesting a potential acute side effect of the drug.

This report discusses a 22-year-old patient with MELAS syndrome carrying the m.10158T>C mutation, and highlights the need for extensive genetic testing when initial hot-spot mutation tests are negative.

In this study, inhibition of neurosteroid synthesis after inducing status epilepticus in rats led to acute seizures and accelerated the onset of epilepsy, suggesting a role for δ-GABAR plasticity in epileptogenesis.

This study found that men experiencing long-term symptoms after finasteride use for androgenetic alopecia frequently reported loss of penis sensitivity and anhedonia, among other effects, indicating potential post-finasteride syndrome.

This case report illustrates the relationship between psychosis and Sheehan's syndrome and discusses treatment challenges.

This study describes a family with loose anagen hair syndrome associated with macular dystrophy, suggesting this combination may represent a new disease entity among ectodermal dysplasias.

The abstract for this research is not provided, so results or conclusions from this study are not available.

This study investigated a unique frontal fibrosing alopecia-like presentation of alopecia areata, finding that patients experienced an insidious, chronic course with limited scalp hair regrowth, and showed a lower response to systemic corticosteroids compared to patchy alopecia areata.

This study found significant gene expression abnormalities in hair follicles affected by alopecia areata, suggesting persistent changes that may predispose to future relapses even after hair regrowth.

In this study, adult male rats exhibited significant anxiety-like behaviors following finasteride withdrawal, including pronounced hyperactivity and novelty avoidance, highlighting potential parallels with post-finasteride syndrome observed in clinical settings.

A 31-year-old man's hair turned white suddenly, likely due to alopecia areata.

This report presented a case of a 29-year-old female with cervical disc prolapse whose neuropathic pain medications, including amitriptyline, were adjusted due to hospitalization for a febrile illness, highlighting the importance of pharmacovigilance in managing treatment.

This article reviews the general, pathophysiological, diagnostic, and therapeutic aspects of alopecia frontal fibrosante, highlighting its irreversible nature and the importance of early diagnosis, but it reports no new clinical results.

Alopecia areata causes negative emotions and stress due to hair loss and emotional triggers.

This case report describes a woman with an unusual presentation of tinea capitis, noting diagnostic challenges as initial examinations found no mycelium or spores.

This report describes two siblings with a new familial association of loose anagen syndrome and ocular coloboma, despite unaffected parents and no family history.

In this study, researchers found a significant association between Alopecia Areata and depressive symptoms, with those diagnosed showing higher depression scores and differing responses in psychological assessments compared to controls.

In this study, androgenic alopecia was identified as an independent predictor of abnormal white matter hyperintensities in the brain, suggesting it may serve as a surrogate marker for cerebral small vessel disease linked to arteriolosclerosis.

This case report details two consanguineous patients with cerebral autosomal recessive arteriopathy, both having the same HTRA1 gene mutation, but exhibiting different clinical presentations, including one with epileptic seizures and lobar hemorrhages—previously undocumented in this condition.

In this study, researchers used NIH hairless mice to uncover genetic markers associated with hair loss and identified a Lama3 point mutation as a potential genetic contributor, creating a mutant mouse model that may advance the study of androgenetic alopecia.

This review discusses the use of animal models to study alopecia areata and reports no new experimental results, emphasizing the potential for these models to explore the disease's genetics and treatment.

In this study, researchers found that effective working memory performance in healthy, young adults depends on neural suppression of irrelevant information to prevent overload, rather than just enhancing relevant information.
