The document concludes that a woman has both Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia and Lichen Simplex Chronicus, a previously unreported combination of conditions.

In this study, researchers found that hair follicle orientation in Fz6 −/− mice is disrupted and that hair may reorient itself over time through a self-organized process.

This case report highlights trichotillomania's distinguishing "tonsure pattern" and nail-biting, emphasizing the need to differentiate it from other hair loss types due to differing treatments.

This study found super-contraction in the guard hairs of fur-bearing animals, likely due to oxidation in living animals, primarily affecting white and red foxes without prior heat or chemical treatment.

In this case report, researchers documented a young girl's eyebrow hair loss attributed to trichotillosis influenced by observing Jain monks' ritualistic hair plucking, highlighting the role of cultural practices in shaping compulsive behaviors.

In this case report, an elderly woman was diagnosed with tinea capitis and eyebrow involvement, which was initially misdiagnosed as alopecia areata, illustrating the importance of trichoscopy in correctly identifying this infection even in uncommon sites like the eyebrow.

This case report described two siblings with uncombable hair syndrome characterized by unique hair features, and identified a new pathogenic variant in the PADI3 gene (c.1374dup; p. Val459ArgfsTer15) not previously documented.

This case report describes a 56-year-old woman with wooly hair and skin lesions, who experienced reduced plaque size and thickness after using 6% salicylic acid topically for three months.

Trichotillomania is a condition where people repeatedly pull out their hair, which can be triggered by stress and has various physical signs.

This case study reports that sudden hair matting occurred in a patient after using coconut and castor oils on long hair, requiring the hair to be cut off due to irreversible felting.

The girl's "dandruff" was actually harmless hair casts, not a hygiene issue.

This report describes an 8-year-old male with trichotillomania, confirmed by trichoscopy showing characteristic hair damage and patterns.

This study found that line-field confocal optical coherence tomography effectively visualized microscopic alterations in alopecia areata, suggesting its potential use in diagnosis and monitoring.

This study suggests that specific genetic changes, including mutations in protein-coding genes and noncoding regions, have contributed to the evolution of hairlessness in multiple mammalian species.

This case study describes a unique instance of warty dyskeratoma involving two adjacent hair follicles within one lesion.

This study identified a new mutation in SELH/Bc mice causing distinctive whisker and body hair abnormalities, mapped near the type I keratin cluster on chromosome 11.

This study suggests that corkscrew hairs in tinea capitis result from internal hair damage by Trichophyton violaceum and external resistance from scalp scales.

This study reports that lower levels of N-myc mRNA are observed when hair growth ceases in certain phases in mice, and attempts to create transgenic mice for further investigation resulted in high embryonic mortality.

This article reviews the Directory of Open Access Journals, an extensive global index of quality open access journals, and reports no new results.

This case report documents the first instance of frontal fibrosing alopecia where lichen planopilaris developed at wig attachment sites, suggesting wigs may trigger the Koebner phenomenon in affected patients.

This review discusses recent Japanese research on trichotillomania and compares it with international studies, reporting no new clinical results.

This report discusses the characteristics of circle hairs, a type of body hair growth disorder, and emphasizes the value of trichoscopy for diagnosis.

Mice with extra sheep genes had hair that fell out and regrew in cycles.

Pseudofolliculitis cutis causes painful skin bumps and needs proper shaving and treatments to manage.

This study observed that some patients with homozygous c.736T>A mutation in LIPH may have mild hypotrichosis with long hairs in adulthood.

This abstract provides no results; it is a website notification about cookies and general access to JAMA content.

This review discusses the characteristics and diagnosis of loose anagen hair syndrome in children and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers observed that the combination of hair progenitors and their micro-niche changes every three days in mouse zigzag hair, and disruptions in specific genes affected this rhythm, highlighting the importance of this periodic change for normal hair morphology.

This review discusses insights into the role of lipase H in controlling hair form and texture, emphasizing genetic mutations linked to autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis, and reports no new experimental results.

This case study suggests that patients with acquired progressive kinking of the hair may benefit from finasteride treatment due to an increased risk of developing androgenetic alopecia.
