research Case Report: Paired vertex-occipital assessment reveals donor-area involvement in diffuse unpatterned alopecia
This study reported that two male patients with diffuse unpatterned alopecia exhibited donor-area involvement in both the vertex and occiput, challenging the assumption of occipital stability for hair transplantation, and showed partial improvement following treatment with oral finasteride and topical minoxidil.
research The importance of adequate serum ferritin levels during oral cyproterone acetate and ethinyl oestradiol treatment of diffuse androgen-dependent alopecia in women
This study found that treatment with cyproterone acetate and ethinyl oestradiol increased hair density in women with diffuse androgen-dependent alopecia, particularly when serum ferritin levels were above 40 μg/l.
research Androgenetic, Diffuse and Senescent Alopecia in Men: Practical Evaluation and Management
This review discusses the evaluation and management of male baldness and related conditions, but reports no new clinical results.
research Diffuse alopecia; nutritional factors and supplements
This review discusses nutritional factors important for hair growth and the need to assess and address deficiencies in cases of alopecia, but does not report new clinical results.
research Diffuse scarring alopecia in a female pattern hair loss distribution
This report describes three cases of hair loss that appear consistent with cicatricial pattern hair loss, a possible new subtype of scarring alopecia presenting in a female pattern hair loss distribution.
research Plica Neuropathica (Polonica) Secondary to Diffuse Alopecia: A Case Report and Literature Review
In this case report, the researchers documented a rare instance of plica neuropathica, characterized by matted and twisted hair, occurring alongside diffuse alopecia, marking the first such documented association and emphasizing its diagnostic challenges in identifying causes of alopecia.
research Biochemical and trichological characterization of diffuse alopecia in women
Diffuse alopecia in women may be related to androgens and iron deficiency, and basic hormone and nutrient screening is useful.
research Melatonin increases anagen hair rate in women with androgenetic alopecia or diffuse alopecia: results of a pilot randomized controlled trial
This article reviews the potential impact of melatonin on hair growth, noting its benefits observed in animals, but reports no clinical results in humans to date.
research Diffuse Alopecia in a Child Due to Dietary Zinc Deficiency
In this case study, a 4-year-old girl's hair loss stopped after six months of zinc supplementation and dietary changes, suggesting a possible link to low zinc levels.
research Clinical and histological challenge in the differential diagnosis of diffuse alopecia: female androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium and alopecia areata – part II
This review discusses chronic telogen effluvium and diffuse alopecia areata, providing clinical and diagnostic insights, but presents no new clinical findings.
research Acute Diffuse and Total Alopecia of the Female Scalp: A New Subtype of Diffuse Alopecia areata That Has a Favorable Prognosis – A Reply
This study suggests a new subtype of alopecia, termed 'acute diffuse and total alopecia of the female scalp' (ADTAFS), characterized by acute and total hair loss in women with a favorable recovery profile.
research Female pattern alopecia and telogen effuvium: figuring out diffuse alopecia
This article discusses methods to distinguish and manage female pattern alopecia and telogen effluvium in women with diffuse hair loss but reports no new clinical results.
research Diffuse alopecia areata is associated with intense inflammatory infiltration and CD8+ T cells in hair loss regions and an increase in serum IgE level
This study suggests that hypersensitivity and increased serum IgE levels might contribute to the pathogenesis of diffuse alopecia areata through intense local inflammatory infiltration.
research Alopecia Areata Incognita and Diffuse Alopecia Areata: Clinical, Trichoscopic, Histopathological, and Therapeutic Features of a 5-Year Study
This study analyzed the features of alopecia areata incognita and diffuse alopecia areata, finding distinct patterns in hair loss regions and trichoscopic signs, and noted a benign course responsive to topical steroid therapy.
research A case of widespread non‐pigmented hair regrowth in diffuse alopecia areata
This case study reported that a 62-year-old woman with alopecia areata experienced significant hair regrowth with completely non-pigmented white hair following a 2-month course of oral prednisolone.
research Distinguishing diffuse alopecia areata (AA) from pattern hair loss (PHL) using CD3+ T cells
This study found that the presence of CD3(+) T-cells within empty follicular fibrous tracts is a reliable indicator for diagnosing diffuse alopecia areata instead of pattern hair loss.
research A novel PLEC nonsense homozygous mutation (c.7159G > T; p.Glu2387*) causes epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy and diffuse alopecia: a case report
This paper describes a case of epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy associated with a novel PLEC mutation and diffuse alopecia, highlighting a potential genetic link that remains uncertain.
research Permanent diffuse alopecia after haematopoietic stem cell transplantation in childhood
In this study, permanent alopecia after haematopoietic stem cell transplantation was found in 16% of patients and was significantly associated with conditioning regimens involving busulphan.
research Diffuse Alopecia With Stem Cell Folliculitis
This article describes a woman's case of slowly progressive nonscarring alopecia with unique biopsy findings, suggesting the need to reexamine similar cases currently classified as chronic diffuse alopecia areata.
research Diffuse Alopecia in a Hemodialysis Patient Caused by a Low-Molecular-Weight Heparin, Tinzaparin
This case report describes a hemodialysis patient whose hair loss reversed after switching from tinzaparin to enoxaparin, suggesting tinzaparin-induced alopecia.
research Halo naevi, vitiligo and diffuse alopecia areata associated with tocilizumab therapy
This case report describes the development of halo naevi, vitiligo, and diffuse alopecia areata in a 33-year-old woman undergoing tocilizumab therapy, suggesting a link between these conditions and cellular and humoral immune factors.
research Study of diffuse alopecia in females.
This study observed that telogen effluvium was the most common pattern of diffuse hair loss among 100 female patients, often associated with factors like stress and fever.
research Age-related diffuse chronic telogen effluvium- type alopecia in female squirrel monkeys (Saimiri boliviensis boliviensis).
This study found that diffuse alopecia in female squirrel monkeys is associated with chronic telogen effluvium and appears to be predominantly age-related, potentially serving as an animal model for human diffuse alopecia.
research [Evaluation of vitamin B6 and calcium pantothenate effectiveness on hair growth from clinical and trichographic aspects for treatment of diffuse alopecia in women].
This study found that vitamin B6 injections over several weeks improved hair condition and reduced hair loss in some women with diffuse alopecia, while calcium pantothenate had no clear positive effect.
research Sequential cyclic changes of hair roots revealed by dermoscopy demonstrate a progressive mechanism of diffuse alopecia areata over time
This study suggests that diffuse alopecia areata initially involves an intense inflammatory attack during the anagen phase, progressing through different hair cycle stages with specific shedding patterns.
