This review discusses the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, and treatment of frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting the lack of clinical trial data and limited observational treatment results.

This study found that high frequency use of sunscreen is associated with frontal fibrosing alopecia among women attending a specialist hair clinic in Australia.

The woman's skin and hair symptoms were confirmed as frontal fibrosing alopecia, and while facial papules are common in such cases, there's no effective local treatment, but systemic treatments can help.

This study found that CYP11A1-derived vitamin D3 analogs inhibit fibroblast proliferation and decrease collagen production through VDR expression, showing potential antifibrotic and antiproliferative activity in human dermal fibroblasts.

This study found that dermoscopy of the axilla in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia revealed significantly higher odds of brownish peripillary halos, suggesting a diagnostic clue for the condition in this region.

This case report presents three sisters with familial frontal fibrosing alopecia, making it the 25th documented familial case, with treatment results observed in one sister.

This review highlights available treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting that 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, intralesional steroids, and hydroxychloroquine currently have the most evidence supporting their use, while other treatments show variable results and require further study.

This review discusses the non-follicular skin manifestations of frontal fibrosing alopecia and how they affect diagnosis and treatment, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the role of factor Xa inhibitors like Rivaroxaban and suggests they may eventually replace vitamin K antagonists, but their side effects require further clarification.

This study found that both finasteride and dutasteride significantly reduced L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia in a rat model of Parkinson's disease, with dutasteride showing greater effectiveness at lower doses.

Red dots on the upper chest may be an early sign of certain types of hair loss.

In this study, FAPD was characterized in a Chinese population by perifollicular mast cell infiltration, suggesting young individuals may be at higher risk than previously thought.

This case study diagnosed a 60-year-old woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia after histopathological analysis showed characteristic scarring patterns in the hairline area.

This study found that FGF5 alternative spliceosomes inhibit dermal papilla cell proliferation and regulate hair follicle growth-related gene expression, impacting hair follicle development in rabbits.

Sunscreen use may increase the risk of frontal fibrosing alopecia.

This study found that FZD2 is crucial for hair follicle formation and postnatal growth in mice and has a novel role in regulating early epidermal development, including stratification and cornification.

This correspondence discusses the diagnostic criteria for frontal fibrosing alopecia but reports no new research findings, agreeing with many previously suggested criteria.

This study tested a folate-conjugate drug delivery system and found its cytotoxicity depends on whether the treated cells overexpress folate receptors, suggesting potential for targeted chemotherapy.

This study found that the compound M50054 inhibits apoptosis by blocking caspase-3 activation and may improve chemotherapy-induced alopecia and hepatitis symptoms.

This study found that infrared thermography might be a useful non-invasive tool to help diagnose frontal fibrosing alopecia by identifying active phases of the disease.

This review discusses what is known about the pathobiology of frontal fibrosing alopecia and reports no new clinical findings, highlighting potential environmental and genetic factors in disease pathogenesis.

This study reports that variable environmental factors, including dietary habits, may contribute to the increasing incidence and diverse clinical presentations of frontal fibrosing alopecia.

This study found that trichoscopy is an effective noninvasive technique for diagnosing frontal fibrosing alopecia, confirming its valuable role alongside traditional histopathological examination.

The commentary suggests that certain hair and skin care products may be linked to frontal fibrosing alopecia, but not sunscreens, and calls for more thorough research on the causes.

The study found that finasteride increased endoplasmic reticulum stress and reduced fertility in rats, effects that were alleviated by the administration of DA-9401.

This study found that the DFS pattern occurs in about 28% of ANA-positive cases and is relatively frequent in autoimmune diseases, contrary to previous observations suggesting no link with these diseases.

This review discusses the current understanding of frontal fibrosing alopecia's pathogenesis, highlighting genetic susceptibility, immune response involvement, and possible links to steroid hormones, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reports a case of frontal fibrosing alopecia in its early inflammatory stage that responded positively to intralesional steroid treatment.
