This case report illustrates that fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution may be misdiagnosed as androgenetic alopecia due to similar hair loss patterns, but distinctive trichoscopic and histopathologic features help differentiate it.

This review discusses fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution and highlights diagnostic features, but reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the value of trichoscopy and histology in diagnosis.

This report describes a 55-year-old African woman with a 4-year history of frontotemporal alopecia and total eyebrow loss, who experienced scalp itching and had unsuccessfully undergone hair transplantation.

This study reported that C. procera leaf extracts showed antifungal activity against several dermatophytes, with ethanol extracts demonstrating slightly greater efficacy than aqueous extracts.

This study reported that Eclipta prostrata contains active phytochemicals and demonstrated antibacterial properties in methanolic extracts, suggesting potential antibiotic uses.

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 report describes ten cases of pityriasis amiantacea to raise awareness of this uncommon scalp condition, highlighting its negative test findings and its uncertain association with other skin diseases.

This case report describes two brothers with an unusual, possibly treatment-resistant inflammatory variant of androgenic alopecia, featuring follicular isthmic lymphocytic inflammation and diffuse central scalp hair loss.

This article reviews alopecia areata incognita, a rare condition mostly seen in young women, and discusses its similarities and differences with telogen effluvium; however, it reports no new clinical findings.

Androgenetic alopecia is a common form of hair loss in both men and women.

This study reported that atypical variants of alopecia areata made up less than 25% of all cases in their specialized trichology unit, suggesting a potential selection bias.

Chewing betel nut may increase the risk of type 2 diabetes, and saw palmetto can improve urinary symptoms in BPH with fewer side effects but may cause bleeding and allergic reactions.

This paper reports a case of alopecia triangularis congenita in a 22-year-old woman, combined with androgenetic alopecia, and highlights successful treatment with internal and topical antiandrogens.

This study observed a high prevalence of PCOS among young female-pattern hair loss patients and suggested that AMH levels might be more indicative of FPHL than traditional androgens.

This review presents European expert guidelines for diagnosing androgenetic alopecia across genders but reports no new clinical findings; it emphasizes the importance of trichoscopy for differentiating similar conditions.

Passiflora incarnata may help with anxiety and sleep issues but has side effects; teleconsultation for heart failure can improve quality of life; increased screen time for children during the pandemic led to more clinical complaints; older and severely affected COVID-19 patients are more likely to have long-term symptoms.

In this study, trichoscopic examination revealed that patients with androgenetic alopecia had significantly more yellow dots, pilosebaceous units with one hair, and increased perifollicular hyperpigmentation compared to healthy controls.

This study found that disrupting the microtubule cytoskeleton in Arabidopsis root hairs caused loss of growth directionality and suggested microtubules interact with calcium gradients to regulate apical growth stability.

This study reports that a majority of patients hospitalized with severe COVID-19 in three Madrid hospitals exhibited androgenetic alopecia, termed the "Gabrin Sign".

This study found that Dysphania ambrosioides oil exhibited cytotoxicity against U-937 lymphoma cells, indicating potential activity that warrants further investigation.

This study found that patients with androgenetic alopecia experienced more severe symptoms than those with alopecia areata, influencing their quality of life differently based on various patient characteristics.

This study suggests that high consumption of raw vegetables and fresh herbs, which are part of the Mediterranean diet, may reduce the risk of androgenetic alopecia in genetically predisposed men.

This study found that different stabilizing mutations in Aux/IAA proteins affect root hair development in Arabidopsis by disrupting the auxin response and suggest a model where the relative abundance of these proteins determines root hair initiation.

In this study, mange lesions with alopecia and crusts in masked palm civets in Japan were caused by the mite Notoedres cati.

This study aimed to identify trichoscopic features that help differentiate between tinea capitis and alopecia areata in children, enhancing diagnosis and treatment decisions visually and non-invasively.

This study found that cortexolone 17α-propionate (clascoterone) effectively inhibited androgen receptor-regulated transcription and IL-6 synthesis in scalp cells, potentially making it a promising candidate for topical treatment of androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, researchers found that using a handheld digital microscope, hair diameter was a better determinant of perceived alopecia severity in androgenetic alopecia than hair density.
