In this case report, a 20-year-old woman exhibited progressive asymptomatic hair loss with a pattern inconsistent with alopecia areata or female pattern hair loss, showing areas of both extending and improving hair loss.

This article reviews scalp micropigmentation techniques for camouflaging scalp scars and alopecia, emphasizing the principles and skills required to achieve a natural appearance, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that sebaceous glands in bald scalp have greater androgen binding affinity and capacity than those in hairy scalp, possibly contributing to the androgenic response seen in male pattern baldness.

This study observed unique ultrastructural changes in a 4-year-old girl with pili trianguli et canaliculi that may affect hair shaft surface characteristics due to inner root sheath alterations.

This case report describes the unexpected hair repigmentation surrounding a scalp tumor in a 74-year-old man, suggesting a potential link between the carcinoma and changes in hair pigmentation.

Bulge progenitor cells show promise for regenerating hair follicles and increasing hair density.

This case report suggests that tufted hair formation can occur in localized exudative inflammatory scalp lesions, as observed in a Japanese man with pemphigus vulgaris.

This study suggests that the high prevalence of frontal alopecia in Chinese women may be linked to frequent ponytail styling, which could indicate traction alopecia.

In this case study, a 69-year-old woman with pityriasis rubra pilaris developed a scarring alopecia with lichen-planopilaris-like features, which responded well to early treatment.

This study found that co-culturing dermal papilla cells in a 3D structure with adipose-derived stem cells may enhance the expression of hair inductivity markers compared to 2D cultures.

The Paxbp1 gene is crucial for healthy hair follicles.

This study found that trichoscopy is a valuable diagnostic tool for identifying hair loss patterns in women and can help avoid scalp biopsies in unclear cases.

This study found that combining the PAXMAN scalp cooling system with HairRepro MEDI α lotion led to a 50% success rate in reducing chemotherapy-induced alopecia and achieved complete hair regrowth by 3 months in Japanese breast cancer patients, suggesting enhanced efficacy over scalp cooling alone.

In this case study, a 74-year-old patient with frontal fibrosing alopecia displayed unique trichoscopic and histopathological features, and treatments like 5-alpha reductase inhibitors and oral minoxidil effectively halted disease progression, highlighting the importance of comprehensive facial analysis for prognosis.

This study found no significant link between headcover use and the severity of male-pattern hair loss among adult males, with age being the only associated factor.

This study found that decreased pressure sensitivity and 2-point discrimination at the scalp's vertex were significantly associated with androgenetic alopecia in men.

This study found that genes in the human keratin-associated protein 1 family may have evolved mainly through gene duplication of cysteine-repeat motifs.

The researchers in this study described the use of trichoscopy to assist in diagnosing aplasia cutis congenita of the scalp in a dark-skinned newborn, noting that trichoscopic findings can differ from those seen in light-skinned patients, yet remain a valuable diagnostic tool.

This report describes a Danish family with autosomal dominant hypotrichosis, where affected members experienced gradual diffuse hair loss leading to near-total scalp alopecia by ages 14-21.

This study found that microencapsulated human hair dermal papilla cells successfully induced hair follicle regeneration on the dorsal skin of nude mice, unlike control groups with free cells or empty microcapsules.

This study compared the diagnostic effectiveness of Folliscope and Trichoscope in 100 men with androgenetic alopecia, concluding that using both methods enhances diagnostic accuracy by providing complementary insights—Trichoscope highlights patterns while Folliscope offers objective measurements.

This paper identifies challenges in diagnosing alopecia variants, emphasizing the importance of pathologists understanding hair follicle histology, biopsy types, and collaborating with dermatologists to improve diagnostic accuracy.

This cross-sectional survey study found that stigmatizing attitudes toward people with alopecia are present in various social and professional settings, with stigma levels varying by alopecia severity and perceptions of its medical nature.

Hair transplant combining scalp and beard hair with PRP was successful for scarring alopecia.
