This article discusses primary cutaneous virilism, focusing on alopecia in women with androgen-dependent skin conditions, and reports no new findings.

This review discusses diagnostic approaches for women with diffuse, nonscarring hair loss and reports no new clinical results.

This discussion reviews hair transplantation as a treatment for thinning, hairline restoration, or scar coverage in females, offering no new clinical findings.

This study found that standardized scalp massages may help stabilize or regrow hair in individuals with androgenic alopecia, as perceived by the participants themselves.

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.

This review summarizes existing knowledge on diffuse and patterned alopecia, emphasizing recent advancements in treatment beyond FDA-approved options, but it reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, old age was concluded not to be a significant cause of hair loss, with most cases in the elderly appearing to be androgen-driven.

This article outlines management guidelines for androgenetic alopecia, highlighting that continued treatment with medications like finasteride or minoxidil typically halts progression and improves hair condition in most mild to moderate cases.

This review examines chronic telogen effluvium, highlighting its distinctive features and the need for reassurance about its non-progressive nature, but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the significance of anatomic zones in hair loss and underscores the importance for hair restoration surgeons to understand these patterns and their implications for future treatments, but reports no new clinical findings.

Up to 50% of scalp hair can be lost before it appears thin, and treatment is only needed for hair loss caused by diseases or deficiencies.

This article discusses methods for diagnosing and managing diffuse hair loss and reports no new results; the authors emphasize systematic evaluation and the importance of psychological support.

In this study, researchers suggest that hair follicle miniaturization in conditions like androgenetic alopecia may result from impaired conversion of quiescent stem cells to progenitor cells, influenced by the follicular niche, its collagen network, and various mechanical constraints.

This review reports no new clinical results but discusses fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution as a distinct scarring alopecia with characteristics of both androgenetic alopecia and lichen planopilaris.

This study found that a new clinic-based modified hair fall count method is a valid tool for assessing hair loss in women, showing strong association and high precision compared to the conventional home-based method.

This review discusses how changes in hair and skin may indicate underlying vitamin deficiencies and emphasizes the need to identify populations at risk for these deficiencies; it reports no new results.

This review discusses histologic findings in alopecia and emphasizes the importance of understanding normal follicular anatomy and cycles in transverse sections, without reporting new results.

This article reviews techniques for achieving natural-appearing hair restoration results in women and reports no new research findings.

This review examines various conditions that resemble androgenetic alopecia, analyzing their pathogenesis and highlighting the difficulties they pose for accurate diagnosis and treatment; it reports no clinical results.

In this study, trichoscopy was used to diagnose female androgenic alopecia with 92% specificity by identifying specific hair and scalp patterns.

This study found that both genetic and environmental factors influence appearance-related aging in women, with skin wrinkling, hair graying, and sun damage significantly affecting perceived age more than chronological age.

This study observed that Japanese women experience diffuse central hair loss after age 40, characterized by reduced hair density and thicker hair ratio rather than vellus-like hairs.

This study describes a follicular automaton model that simulates human hair cycles and may replicate hair pattern evolution seen in diffuse or androgenetic alopecia.

This article examines how digital technologies, drawing on Marshall McLuhan's concept of media as an "extension of man," transform design thinking by creating new possibilities without replacing it, emphasizing the need for a hybrid, reflective practice in design.

In this article, the author explores how digital technologies can expand the cognitive and creative capabilities of designers, noting that while technology transforms design thinking, it does not replace it but rather opens up new possibilities and requires a hybrid, reflective practice.

This article reviews various topics discussed at a workshop on hair disorders, focusing on hair biology, diagnosis, and challenges in therapy evaluation, without presenting new clinical findings.

Lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia are likely the same disease with different clinical appearances.

This paper identifies challenges in diagnosing alopecia variants, emphasizing the importance of pathologists understanding hair follicle histology, biopsy types, and collaborating with dermatologists to improve diagnostic accuracy.

This review synthesizes evidence on strategies to preserve donor aesthetics and reserve in follicular unit extraction, emphasizing conservative extraction limits and long-term planning to prevent donor site morbidity.

This review discusses the classification of lichen planopilaris and its subtypes under the proposed term "lichenoid alopecias," suggesting they exist along a clinical and histological spectrum.
