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 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 source reports that SET may offer notable cosmetic improvements and enhance well-being for patients with CA, serving as a cost-effective treatment option either alone or alongside hair transplantation.

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

This study established that the Dct::CreERT2 mouse line is effective for targeting and studying adult melanocyte stem cells, contributing to the understanding of melanocyte biology and hair pigmentation.

This study found that central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia primarily affects adult women of African descent and suggests an association with traumatic hair care practices and delayed diagnosis.

CCCA may be a fibroproliferative disorder, and anti-fibrotic therapies could help.

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 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.

This report describes a Cronkhite-Canada syndrome patient with severe sepsis and disseminated intravascular coagulation successfully treated using combined therapies, including recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin.

This study found that the new HCC additive enhances the permeation of pigments and active ingredients into hair, suggesting potential use in developing functional cosmetic hair products.

This report presents a case of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome in an elderly Indian male, adding to the approximately 450 cases documented worldwide, but introduces no new results about the condition.

This review discusses Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, highlighting a relatively mild case and suggesting that it may be a more benign and possibly reversible condition with treatment, but reports no new clinical results.

Cone beam computed tomography can allow for smaller safety margins around the target area in prostate cancer radiation treatment if used for ongoing treatment checks.

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

A new test helps find drugs to treat head and neck cancer by targeting c-Rel.

In this study, researchers found multiple somatic mutations and copy number variations in a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, providing novel insights into its potential genetic mechanisms.

Hair shaft malformation contributes to Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia.

This article reports on a patient case of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, detailing symptoms and diagnostic findings, and reviews the syndrome's characteristics without presenting new clinical data.

This study found that the CTLA-4 gene polymorphism (rs733618) has no association with polycystic ovarian syndrome in the studied population.

This review discusses the potential of traditional Chinese medicine to relieve clinical symptoms in cases of CCS and emphasizes the need for further large-scale, long-term studies to verify these effects.

Elderly patients with CCCA were all African American with low vitamin D, but no iron or zinc deficiencies, and no hormonal imbalances compared to younger patients.

This study observed that the small molecules KY19382 and KY19334 inhibited cancerous traits in human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma cells by suppressing the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, indicating their potential as treatments for cancers involving CDK1 overexpression and diseases related to CXXC5 accumulation.

This study observed that the degradation product PTeCA significantly increased in hair treated with oxidative cosmetics, suggesting it could be a reliable marker for detecting such treatments, with a proposed PTCA cut-off value using PTeCA as the gold standard.

This study demonstrated that transcutaneous vaccination via cyanoacrylate skin surface stripping effectively induced both CD4 and CD8 T cell responses in humans, offering a promising alternative to intramuscular injection.

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.

This study reviews the role of the zinc finger protein CXXC5 in cellular signaling and its implications for cancer, discussing how its dysregulation is linked to various physiological and pathological processes, as well as potential therapies targeting CXXC5.

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 found that reported stress and hair growth changes related to facial/body hair excess or scalp hair loss differ among ethnic gender minority groups, with black and other ethnic respondents experiencing more stress compared to Caucasians, particularly in relation to facial/body hair excess.
