This review outlines the classification, histopathologic presentation, and pathogenetic concepts of scarring and nonscarring alopecias, reporting no new clinical results and emphasizing the need for clinicopathologic correlation.

This study found that the prevalence of androgenetic alopecia in Chinese men was lower than in Caucasian men, similar to Korean men, and most commonly presented as type III vertex.

This study found that eosinophils are a useful diagnostic feature for alopecia areata, especially when the typical "swarm of bees" lymphoid infiltrate is absent, helping differentiate it from trichotillomania.

This review provides a framework for diagnosing acquired scalp alopecias and discusses both non-scarring and scarring types, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that women experiencing diffuse hair loss had significantly lower levels of plasma sex-hormone binding globulin compared to controls, while their testosterone levels remained normal.

In this study, researchers found that the prevalence of androgenetic alopecia was higher in their sample compared to other studies in Asian and Caucasian populations, and it was linked with age-related severity.

This review focuses on the medical treatment of common nonscarring alopecias, including androgenetic alopecia, alopecia areata, and telogen effluvium, and reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests the average age of onset for androgenic alopecia may be decreasing, but a longer-term study is needed to confirm this observation.

This study found significantly higher levels of the protein ULBP3 in patients with alopecia areata incognita compared to other hair loss conditions and healthy controls, suggesting ULBP3's potential as a diagnostic marker for AAI.

This study found that diffuse alopecia in HIV-1-infected patients is characterized by higher rates of follicular stem cell apoptosis compared to controls, suggesting a hair cycle disturbance associated with the infection.

This study found that in Colombian women with non-scarring alopecia, decreased serum ferritin levels were associated with telogen effluvium, but no such link was observed with thyroid disorders.

This article discusses the realities of hair loss and available treatments but does not report new research findings.

This article discusses reported cases of diffuse scalp hair thinning in women using amphetamines and suggests no clear cause-effect relationship with amphetamine use based on available evidence.

This study found that a family history of androgenetic alopecia and specific trichoscopic signs are strong predictors of female pattern hair loss, leading to a nomogram model for risk prediction.

This diagnostic discussion reports that diffuse alopecia areata was identified in a patient with diffuse hair loss, based on specific histopathological features observed in a biopsy.

This study found that abnormal serum lipid levels were prevalent among male patients with androgenetic alopecia, with high triglycerides and low HDL observed frequently.

In this study, the prevalence of androgenetic alopecia among Korean men and women was found to be lower than in caucasians, with Korean men showing more frontal hairline preservation and a higher incidence of 'female pattern' hair thinning.

This study found that trichoscopy criteria can distinguish female androgenic alopecia from chronic telogen effluvium, with specific features achieving 98% diagnostic specificity.

This study found that individuals with androgenic alopecia have an increased number of thin hairs (less than 40 microns in diameter) per cm², which may affect their clinical appearance.

This study presents a new model for androgenetic alopecia progression, explaining diffuse hair loss in women through 3D reconstructions of the arrector pili muscle and its relationship with the hair follicle stem cell niche.

This study found that phyto-vesicles of ß-sitosterol showed better absorption and improved activity for treating androgenetic alopecia in rats compared to the compound and its complex.

This report describes a possible case of burn-induced bullous pemphigoid, as the disease was transient and did not recur, suggesting a potential link between burns and the condition.

This letter argues that cicatricial pattern hair loss likely represents end-stage androgenetic alopecia and not a variant of lichen planopilaris, as previously suggested.

This study observed an alopecia syphilitica-like pattern of hair loss in a woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting it may be another atypical presentation of the condition.

The conclusion is that different types of hair loss in dogs and cats can be cosmetic or serious, and affected animals should not be bred.

Over 40% of postmenopausal women experience hair loss, with treatments aiming to stop further loss and possibly thicken hair.

This study found that permanent alopecia can occur after certain chemotherapy treatments and presents as nonscarring hair loss similar to androgenetic alopecia, with specific histological features that could be misdiagnosed without proper clinicopathological correlation.

This study found that long-term flutamide treatment reduced hair loss in women with female pattern hair loss, but liver-related dropouts were minimized at a very low dose of 62.5 mg/day.

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

Two treatments for male pattern hair loss are minoxidil and finasteride, but they have side effects and may not satisfy everyone.
