This systematic review evaluated 60 studies on trichoscopy in hair and scalp disorders, revealing gaps in accounting for variables like disease stage or hair texture, and underscoring a need for more comprehensive analyses to fully understand trichoscopic patterns.

This study conducted at a Moroccan tertiary dermatology center describes the characteristics of pediatric lichen, highlighting that dermoscopy can improve diagnostic accuracy by identifying distinct patterns across clinical variants, with lichen sclerosus being the most frequent subtype among the children studied.

This study synthesizes knowledge of how dendritic cell signals, epithelial integrins, and fibroblast activity converge on TGF-β1 to maintain or disrupt skin healing, contrasting normal and fibrotic scar formation and suggesting possible integrin and immune-targeted treatments for skin fibrosis.

This review presents European expert guidelines for diagnosing androgenetic alopecia across genders but reports no new clinical findings; it emphasizes the importance of trichoscopy for differentiating similar conditions.

This review explores post-COVID-19 syndromes and the underlying mechanisms, including persistent inflammation, autoimmunity, and possible viral reservoirs, but reports no new clinical results.

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

This article discusses the characteristics, diagnosis, and clinical presentation of different variants of lichen planopilaris on the scalp, with emphasis on cicatricial alopecia and the importance of clinical and trichoscopic monitoring; it presents no new clinical results.

This review discusses the development, lineages, functions, and roles of fibroblasts in fibrosis across four organs, highlighting their capabilities in tissue repair and contributions to fibrotic disorders when aberrantly activated, but it reports no new experimental findings.

This review examines the definition, classification, mechanism, clinical efficacy for hair regrowth, and potential adverse effects of platelet rich plasma, but does not present new experimental results.

This review discusses the role of the ectodysplasin A2 receptor as a biomarker and driver of ageing related to inflammation, and its potential therapeutic implications, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the role of trichoscopy in diagnosing and managing various alopecia types, highlighting its ability to detect specific patterns in both scarring and non-scarring forms, thus aiding in treatment decisions and reducing biopsy necessity.

This review concluded that the efficacy of cosmeceutical hair serums for addressing hair loss lies in their use of bioactive peptides and plant compounds, like flavonoids and sterols, that target eight key contributing factors identified in hair loss conditions.

This review article reports recent advancements in understanding, diagnosing, and treating various hair loss conditions, like androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata, including their genetic factors and new therapeutic options, while also examining the impact of COVID-19 on hair loss.

This article reviews the controversies that led to the establishment of the ISHRS and its impact on the evolution of hair transplantation, reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, androgenetic alopecia patients exhibited more nailfold capillary abnormalities, suggesting a potential link between microcirculation issues and the condition.

This review discusses the increased incidence of hair loss and telogen effluvium among COVID-19 patients and evaluates existing evidence for regenerative treatments like PRP and HFSCs, finding limited published data.

This study found that lichen planopilaris in men typically presents similarly to women, with a lower likelihood of nonscalp hair loss and a higher association with mucosal lichen planus and thyroid disease.

This article provides an overview of how dermoscopy can aid in the noninvasive diagnosis of various general dermatological disorders, grouped by clinical presentation, but reports no new clinical results.

This review compiles existing data on frontal fibrosing alopecia and highlights the promise of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors as a treatment option, while noting the need for clarity on its cause and progression.

This study reports that finasteride treatment in men with androgenetic alopecia appears to restore caspase and XIAP expression in hair follicles to levels similar to those in individuals without the condition.

This study reported that using photomnemonics facilitated accurate histopathologic interpretation of horizontal scalp sections in distinguishing between nonscarring and scarring alopecias by dermatopathologists and residents in a validation test.

This article discusses the use of dermoscopy for diagnosing hair and scalp disorders in children and reports no new clinical results.

This review outlines the diverse clinical presentations of cutaneous metastases in breast cancer patients and emphasizes the importance of biopsy for accurate diagnosis, but reports no new results.

The authors discuss that hair loss affecting the occipital scalp is understudied and may be caused by factors like movement irritation and clothing occlusion; this lack of data can lead to missed diagnoses and inadequate treatment.

This review discusses the characteristic trichoscopy patterns useful in differentiating lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia from similar conditions but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, a wound-induced skin fibrosis model in mice revealed that TGFβ signaling plays a pivotal role in maintaining fibrogenic characteristics in dermal adipocyte progenitors, which could inform new therapeutic approaches for fibrotic skin conditions such as scleroderma.

This review explores advancements in cytokine engineering for regenerative medicine, highlighting the development of modified cytokines with enhanced stability and tissue-targeting, potentially improving treatments for chronic wounds and fibrotic diseases by promoting tissue healing and minimizing inflammation, while adapting concepts from cancer immunotherapy.

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 review discusses the role of mTOR kinase in pulmonary fibrosis and explores how mTOR inhibitors may help slow the progression of this condition, but it reports no new results.

This study observed that among patients with Myhre syndrome, those with the SMAD4 gene variant p.Arg496Cys experienced fewer symptoms like hearing loss, while those with the p.Ile500Thr variant often had severe aortic hypoplasia, highlighting the diverse symptom progression and genetic factors of this rare condition.
