This study reports that some patients with androgenetic alopecia may also exhibit clinical and histological features of inflammation and fibrosis, similar to those found in lichen planopilaris.

This study reports distinctive clinical, trichoscopic, and histopathological features of fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution among Chinese patients, suggesting possible racial differences compared to previous studies primarily involving Caucasians.

This study found that follicular streamers are mostly present in non-scarring alopecia cases, and tracking their location can improve diagnosis accuracy.

This study evaluated the therapeutic response of an Afro-descendant patient with non-scarring alopecia after prolonged use of alkaline straighteners and mechanical traction, highlighting the susceptibility of Afro hair to chemical and mechanical damage due to its structure.

This review discusses the pathogenesis and clinical features of androgenetic alopecia, highlighting potential links to fibrosing alopecia and suggesting the need for combined therapeutic approaches; it reports no new clinical results.

This study concluded that horizontal sections of scalp biopsy specimens provide more diagnostic information for male pattern androgenetic alopecia than vertical sections and can predict hair regrowth potential following topical minoxidil therapy.

Examining scalp biopsies in different ways helps better diagnose hair loss types.

This chapter reviews trichoscopic criteria and diagnostic features for various hair and scalp conditions, emphasizing their utility in non-invasive diagnosis, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that dermatoscopy can quickly and non-invasively detect facial vellus hair involvement in patients with alopecia frontal fibrosante, occurring frequently and associated with specific facial lesions.

This study found that in patients with alopecia areata, the number of follicular stelae in skin biopsies varied by clinical type and severity of the disease, but did not correlate with treatment response.

This study provides a framework for understanding different types of alopecias based on immune privilege collapse at specific follicular sites, revealing distinct patterns in immune effector programs and stromal influences depending on the alopecia type.

This report covers an internship at a pharmacy and hospital where multiple pharmaceutical activities were examined, including the preparation of individualized medication and the comparison of drugs for hypercholesterolemia treatment.

This paper reviews various cases of hair loss, detailing the specific histopathological findings associated with different types of alopecia and scalp disorders, but provides no new clinical results.

Different types of scarring alopecia may be stages of one disease, and accurate diagnosis is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African-descent females, discussing possible causes, associated styling habits, and potential treatments, but reports no new clinical findings; the authors call for further research.

In this study, transverse sectioning of scalp biopsy samples showed higher diagnostic accuracy than vertical sectioning for noncicatricial alopecia, although both techniques are important for accurate diagnosis.

The authors concluded that chronic telogen effluvium in middle-aged women presents distinct clinical and histological features that differ from androgenetic alopecia and acute telogen effluvium.

This article reviews the use of trichoscopy for diagnosing various types of alopecia and reports no new clinical results; it is suggested as a non-invasive method for diagnosis and monitoring treatment responses.

This study found that hair canal and follicle diameters, outer root sheath area, and terminal-to-vellus hair ratios were significantly reduced in androgenetic alopecia patients compared to normal controls.

This case report highlights that scarring alopecia with features of dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa and lichen planopilaris can occur in patients with a COL7A1 mutation, emphasizing the need to recognize concurrent inflammatory causes.

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 review explores the efficacy and safety of treatments for dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, revealing a predominance of case reports and series, and concludes that randomized controlled trials are needed for better evidence-based therapies.
