This article reviews five cases of primary idiopathic pseudopelade of Brocq and reports no histopathological changes indicative of any specific cicatricial alopecia.

In this study, LC-OCT imaging was found to noninvasively identify specific features of cicatricial alopecia due to lupus erythematosus, such as hyperreflective collagen fibers, which may aid in distinguishing it from other types of scarring alopecia.

This article reviews insights into the pathogenesis of primary cicatricial alopecias, such as lichen planopilaris, provided by emerging technologies, but it does not report new clinical results.

This study found that Follicular Unit Extraction for managing secondary cicatricial alopecia resulted in good to very good outcomes in 90% of the patients, with minimal post-operative scars and recovery times, though 45% required additional surgery.

In this study, the introduction of autofibroblasts into ischemic wounds was found to be slightly less favorable for regenerative histogenesis compared to a dermal equivalent with heterofibroblasts, with minor differences in epidermis thickness, collagen fiber area, and blood vessel area.

This study provides a comprehensive framework for understanding, managing, and addressing skin fibrosis, highlighting common pathways and new therapeutic opportunities for various fibrosis-related disorders that currently lack effective treatments.

This article reviews primary cicatricial alopecias, focusing on lymphocytic forms such as chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus, according to a classification by the North American Hair Research Society, and reports no new clinical results.

Genetic factors, especially PADI3 gene variants, contribute to CCCA in women of African descent.

This study reports that platelet-rich plasma therapy resulted in temporary hair growth in patients with stabilized Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia.

This article reports a rare case of sarcoidosis affecting the scalp with cicatricial alopecia, marking the first such documentation in India.

This study found that combining FUE transplantation with rb-bFGF gel and minoxidil tincture significantly improved hair survival, reduced hair loss, and increased patient satisfaction in cicatricial alopecia treatment, compared to FUE alone, with fewer adverse effects reported within 12 months post-surgery.

This review found that hair transplantation in patients with primary cicatricial alopecias is a viable option when the disease is stable, with outcomes varying significantly by subtype.

This study observed that the catagen phase in hairless mice displayed a slower shortening of the mutant epithelial column, resulting in longer total follicle length and abnormalities in the connective tissue sheath and glassy membrane.

The document concludes that a woman has both Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia and Lichen Simplex Chronicus, a previously unreported combination of conditions.

In this report, seven burn patients developed hypertrichosis after undergoing pressure garment/silicone therapy intended to prevent hypertrophic scarring.

This study found that patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia were less likely to report treatment improvement and more commonly associated with certain hairstyling practices compared to those with other scarring alopecias.

This review discusses various nonfollicular scalp conditions causing secondary scarring or permanent alopecia and highlights the importance of specific diagnoses and treatments but reports no new results.

This study observed that human hair follicles with a completely destroyed bulb can regenerate after being grafted onto immunodeficient mice, entering a shortened dystrophic telogen followed by anagen phase.

This case study suggests that intense inflammation after photodynamic therapy may trigger or worsen fibrosing alopecia in susceptible individuals.

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 case report highlights the successful treatment of degenerative mucinotic mural folliculitis in a 1.5-year-old indoor cat using high-dose ciclosporin, resulting in the resolution of alopecia and improved general condition over a 10-month period.

This study observed that trichoscopic examination revealed specific signs of secondary post-traumatic cicatricial alopecia in patients with mine-explosive injuries and burns, and reported an 84.1% hair survival rate following transplantation and PRP therapy, with marked improvements in scalp condition after 12 months.

This study found that while PRP or nanofat injections improved scarred tissue texture in secondary cicatricial alopecia, they did not significantly enhance hair restoration outcomes compared to hair transplantation alone.

This case study reports the first instance of localized acquired hypertrichosis in a pediatric patient following splint application after forearm surgery, with hair growth returning to normal within eight months.

This study identified specific trichoscopic signs of secondary post-traumatic cicatricial alopecia in patients with mine-explosive injuries and burns and evaluated the effectiveness of hair transplantation procedures combined with PRP therapy, finding an average hair survival rate of 84.1% one year post-surgery.

This study observed that patients with certain medical histories and hair care practices, such as using hooded dryers and wearing natural hairstyles, had higher odds of improvement in CCCA treatment outcomes.

This review discusses the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment strategies for Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia, emphasizing a multifactorial approach and reporting no new clinical results.

This case report describes a cat with localized scleroderma (morphea-like) that did not show clinical resolution or spontaneous remission after treatment, differing from previously documented cases.

This study found that discoid lupus erythematous was the most common type of primary cicatricial alopecia, predominantly affecting middle-aged women.

Some people with primary cicatricial alopecia also have inflammatory bowel disease, suggesting a possible connection.
