More research is needed on CCCA in children, especially Black and Asian adolescents.

This review discusses central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia and emphasizes the need for more research to understand and manage the disease, while also suggesting initiatives like educating hairstylists for early detection.

Diagnosing and treating CCCA requires understanding multiple causes and using various diagnostic tools.

This study found that patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia preferred shared decision-making with their doctors regarding treatment management.

In this study, CCCA patients were found to have higher odds of metabolic, autoimmune, atopic, and psychiatric comorbidities compared to matched controls.

This article discusses features, genetics, and diagnostic challenges of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African American women but reports no new clinical results.

Mast cells may significantly contribute to central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, focusing on its multifactorial etiology and challenges in clinical diagnosis, and calls for more research and better treatment options.

This study found that dermatologists in an urban academic setting most frequently use topical corticosteroids, intralesional corticosteroids, and topical minoxidil for treating central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, aligning with current literature recommendations on reducing inflammation.

In this study, researchers found that CCCA in women of African descent is associated with molecular changes, including dysregulation of fatty acid metabolism and fibrosis pathways, suggesting potential targets for new treatments.

This study, conducted at Montefiore Medical Center, reports that central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia predominantly affects middle-aged Black or African American women, often presenting without symptoms, which may delay diagnosis and treatment. The study underscores the need for a specific ICD-10 code for better epidemiological studies.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, particularly in women of African descent, and explains its progression and symptoms but provides no new clinical findings.

This case report highlights that CCCA can present with multifocal patchy hair loss in younger men of African descent, suggesting the need for careful evaluation when diagnosing atypical alopecia patterns.

This report describes early and late stages of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in two Black women, highlighting progression from a small to a large central patch of hair loss.

This review discusses central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in adolescents, noting varied presentation and highlighting genetic and environmental factors, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study developed and evaluated a photographic scale to assess CCCA pattern and severity in African American women, finding it reproducible when used by investigators and participants.

This article discusses central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, highlighting its prevalence, potential genetic factors, and management challenges, but reports no new clinical conclusions and calls for further research.

This study developed a novel treatment method using carbon dots from Cinnamomum burmannii leaves, which improved hair regeneration and thickness in an AGA mouse model by promoting cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and reducing inflammation through multiple signaling pathways.

This case report suggests that in African-American patients, the histology of Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia may resemble lichen planopilaris, indicating a potential diagnostic challenge.

This article discusses central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, noting its prevalence in women of African descent and highlighting the need for further genetic research to improve treatment options; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that a peripilar white gray halo around hair emergence is a highly specific and sensitive dermatoscopic feature for diagnosing central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African American patients with mild central thinning.

This review discusses central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, emphasizing its clinical features, potential contributing factors, and treatment options, but does not report new clinical findings.

The exam tested knowledge on various skin-related topics for CME credit.

This study identified a new variety of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia that includes patchy hair loss on the lateral and posterior scalp in African-American women, which could be misdiagnosed as traction alopecia without dermatoscopy and pathology.

This review discusses the evolution and ongoing debate about the causes of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African American women, without presenting new clinical findings.

This animal study found that Cinnamomi cortex water extract reduced prostate weight and improved histological changes in a benign prostatic hyperplasia model, suggesting potential as a treatment.

This study found that women with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia had a substantial prevalence of systemic comorbidities, including strong associations with dyslipidemia, uterine leiomyomas, and anxiety disorders.

This study emphasizes the genetic component of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, highlighting an atypical case involving an adolescent male within an African-American family.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African-descent females, discussing possible causes, associated styling habits, and potential treatments, but reports no new clinical findings; the authors call for further research.

This article describes a rare case of alopecia with both scarring and non-scarring features, combining histologic signs of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia with select immunologic features of alopecia areata.
