Dermatoscopy and videodermatoscopy are useful for diagnosing and monitoring various skin, hair, and nail conditions.

This study found that acne lesion formation involves early hyperkeratinization and inflammation around hair follicles, creating a self-sustaining cycle that may progressively worsen acne.

In this study, trichoscopy was highlighted as a valuable diagnostic tool for traction alopecia, particularly in black women, revealing common signs like vellus hair and hair casts, although it requires a suggestive clinical history for effective use.

This study found that certain trichoscopic features, including hair diameter diversity patterns, helped differentiate female androgenetic alopecia from telogen effluvium in women, suggesting their potential use in clinical diagnosis.

This study examined young Ukrainian men with alopecia areata and found that different severities of the condition were associated with distinct clinical and trichoscopic features, such as variations in hair loss, stress levels, and nail involvement, among others.

In this report, a 51-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus presented with recurrent joint pain and irregular patches of hair loss, raising differential diagnoses of androgenetic alopecia, lupus-related alopecia, or seborrheic dermatitis.

This study reviewed trichoscopic images to assess hair loss, finding that ayurvedic signs (lakshanas) aligned with modern trichoscopic parameters, potentially aiding accurate diagnosis and management of hair conditions.

In this study, researchers investigated the alignment of trichoscopic findings with ayurvedic signs (lakshanas) for diagnosing hair loss, suggesting that integrating these perspectives could enhance diagnostics and management of hair and scalp conditions.

This review highlights the increasing use of trichoscopy, a noninvasive and well-tolerated diagnostic tool, to aid in the accurate diagnosis and management of various pediatric hair and scalp conditions, such as alopecia and other abnormalities.

This summary from the EADV Congress, chaired by Ulrike Blume-Peytavi and Sergio Vaño-Galván, provided an overview of diagnosing and treating alopecia, but specific results and conclusions from the session were not reported in the abstract.

This review outlines a systematic approach for dermatologists to accurately diagnose hair loss disorders, emphasizing the importance of differentiating between scarring and non-scarring alopecia to guide appropriate treatment decisions.

A man with Klinefelter syndrome had a leg ulcer that didn't heal well, even with treatment.

Most patients with Tuberous sclerosis had neurological or skin issues, and over half had psychiatric problems.

The document concludes that detailed clinical descriptions of seven family cases help understand dominant dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa's symptoms and inheritance.

This study found that a shampoo containing 0.075% broad-spectrum cannabidiol significantly reduced scalp inflammation and symptoms in subjects with mild to moderate scalp psoriasis or seborrheic dermatitis within two weeks.

In this case report, a 53-year-old woman with Little-Graham-Piccardi-Lassueur-Syndrome responded well to a treatment regimen of hydroxychloroquine, methotrexate, and other therapies, effectively halting the progression of this rare dermatosis characterized by alopecia and hyperkeratotic eruptions.

Shiny white structures in trichoscopy can indicate long-standing discoid lupus erythematosus alopecia.

In this study, researchers reviewed cases of EGFR inhibitor-induced folliculitis decalvans and reported the first known occurrences associated with afatinib in three female NSCLC patients, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis and management to improve patient quality of life.

This pilot study found that examining changes in scalp scales after scraping may effectively distinguish seborrheic dermatitis associated with androgenetic alopecia from fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution.

This observational study found that trichoscopy is a reliable tool for diagnosing various hair and scalp disorders, with common findings observed for different types of alopecia.

In this case report, a 20-year-old man with a birthmark was identified as having a supernumerary nipple, a developmental anomaly, using dermoscopy to distinguish it from other pigmented skin lesions such as melanocytic nevus or basal cell carcinoma.

This study observed that in a series of 28 patients with different types of alopecia, specific trichoscopic markers like exclamation-mark hairs and yellow dots helped distinguish alopecia areata from conditions like lichen planopilaris and discoid lupus erythematosus, which showed follicular ostia loss and white scarring.

This systematic review reports that trichoscopy is highly accurate for diagnosing scalp disorders, suggesting it as a valuable alternative to biopsies and supporting recommendations for its integration into routine dermatology practice.

In this study, Wang et al. (2022) found that in patients with cutaneous lupus erythematosus, chronic lesions contained more senescent progenitor cells, marked by p16 and p21, than subacute lesions, suggesting a link between disease chronicity and cellular senescence.

This case report highlights that tumid lupus erythematosus should be considered in the differential diagnosis of annular scalp lesions with non-scarring alopecia, emphasizing histopathological examination for accurate diagnosis.

In this case study, a woman with SLE and severe alopecia showed improved hair growth using intralesional triamcinolone, PRP injections, and tacrolimus ointment, highlighting PRP as a potential adjunct therapy for inflammatory alopecia.
