This review discusses the role of trichoscopy in diagnosing and managing various alopecia types, highlighting its ability to detect specific patterns in both scarring and non-scarring forms, thus aiding in treatment decisions and reducing biopsy necessity.

This case report found that dermoscopy, showing characteristic "comma" and "corkscrew" hairs, effectively identified tinea capitis in a 7-year-old girl, allowing for early treatment before confirmation with fungal culture.

This commentary discusses the declining status of scalp reduction in hair restoration practice and reports no new clinical findings.

This study explored dermatoscopic and histopathologic findings of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia beyond the vertex scalp, suggesting that dermatoscopy might serve as a less invasive diagnostic tool for subclinical disease.

Hair shaft changes may be linked to CCCA, but their role is unclear.

In this study, LC-OCT imaging was found to noninvasively identify specific features of cicatricial alopecia due to lupus erythematosus, such as hyperreflective collagen fibers, which may aid in distinguishing it from other types of scarring alopecia.

This paper discusses the use of Digital Volumetric Imaging with fluorescent dyes to visualize and compare the interior structures of six different virgin hair types, reporting no new clinical results.

In this report, a rare case of scalp arteriovenous fistula following hair transplantation was successfully treated using direct puncture embolization with n-butyl cyanoacrylate glue, demonstrating effective management of this condition.

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.

Reflectance confocal microscopy is a useful, non-invasive tool for diagnosing some skin diseases, with potential for future improvements.

This study found that the sharp scissor technique in hair transplant surgery resulted in a lower hair transection rate without significantly increasing operation time compared to tissue spreader and skin hooks techniques.

In this study, trichoscopy was found to be an effective noninvasive tool for diagnosing female pattern hair loss at early stages, potentially eliminating the need for scalp biopsies.

In this case report, a rare traumatic arteriovenous fistula following hair transplant was successfully treated using percutaneous and endovascular embolization with PHIL, a liquid embolic agent.

This abstract mentions that using magnification during follicular unit graft dissection in hair restoration is known to reduce transection and increase graft yield, but does not report on new findings itself.

In this study, researchers identified elongated corkscrew hairs as a new trichoscopic pattern in immunosuppressed adults with chronic endothrix tinea capitis, which may help in earlier diagnosis and targeted mycological investigation.

This retrospective review of hair samples from pediatric patients indicated that microscopic hair examination might be a useful first-line investigation for diagnosing various genetic conditions.

This study reported that a new surgical technique resulted in minimal scars visible to the naked eye in most cases, suggesting a significant improvement over conventional closure techniques.

This protocol describes using two-photon laser-scanning microscopy to study hair regeneration in live mice, offering detailed imaging capabilities for observing hair follicle stem cell behavior and manipulating cellular populations.

In this study, the authors compared trichoscopy findings for different forms of diffuse non-cicatricial alopecia in females and suggested that trichoscopy might often replace the need for histopathological confirmation, reserving biopsies for more uncertain cases.

This article describes a graft preparation technique for hair restoration using a donor strip, but it does not present new clinical findings.

This article discusses ideal techniques for harvesting donor tissue in hair restoration surgery but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a 4-year-old boy with Netherton syndrome, where trichoscopy importantly aided diagnosis and is recommended for all children with erythroderma.

This study used rapid-freezing immunocytochemistry to successfully map the ultrastructural localization of hair keratins in human scalp hair, primarily finding them in macrofibrils in the cortex and endocuticle.

In this study, trichoscopy was found to be helpful in diagnosing the types of noncicatricial alopecia, and alopecia's negative impact on quality of life was highlighted through the correlation with clinical severity.

UV dermoscopy helps detect white hairs in children more effectively.

This article discusses the development and refinement of the hair-micrografting technique in cosmetic surgery and reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the potential of intralesional cidofovir as a treatment for SCC and reports no systemic toxicity, but highlights surgical excision as the most reliable curative option.

This study found that GPC1 is a key regulator of angiogenesis in hair follicles and may be an interesting target for addressing alopecia in dermatology research.

A new computer tool quickly measures hair thickness differences in people with common types of hair loss.

This study presents a new approach to automatically remove hair artifacts from dermoscopic images, which reportedly performed well compared to existing methods like DullRazor using the PH2 datasets.
