This study found that oral isotretinoin significantly reduced symptoms in nearly 90% of patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, affecting both facial papules and hair loss.

This case report describes a 20-year-old female with favus caused by T. schöenleinii, which initially improved with antifungal treatment but recurred due to poor adherence, underscoring favus as an ongoing health issue in Turkey.

This study investigated a unique frontal fibrosing alopecia-like presentation of alopecia areata, finding that patients experienced an insidious, chronic course with limited scalp hair regrowth, and showed a lower response to systemic corticosteroids compared to patchy alopecia areata.

This study found that a microneedle patch containing tofacitinib-loaded nanoparticles significantly increased hair follicle numbers and promoted hair regeneration with less drug compared to daily topical tofacitinib, suggesting it may be an effective strategy for alopecia treatment by reducing dosing frequency and enhancing drug delivery.

This study suggests that trichoscopic features, such as perifollicular erythema and cicatricial white patches, are independently associated with pruritus and the severity of frontal fibrosing alopecia.

This review discusses the roles of fibroblast growth factors in tissue regeneration and repair across various organisms and tissues, but reports no new experimental findings, underscoring the need for further research.

According to this review, frontal fibrosing alopecia in men exhibits unique clinical features and is often misdiagnosed, underscoring the need for validated diagnostic criteria and treatment evaluation.

This study reported that oral isotretinoin effectively stabilized frontal fibrosing alopecia in patients, which may help guide healthcare providers in managing this condition related to hair loss and self-esteem.

In this ex vivo and mouse model study, Tofacitinib-loaded nanoparticles demonstrated enhanced delivery of the drug into hair follicles and reduced inflammatory effects compared to conventional forms, indicating potential for safer, topical use in treating alopecia areata.

This study observed that using serial sectioning and d-PAS staining improved detection of Malassezia folliculitis, notably in lesions on the trunks of male patients.

This research discusses Fahr syndrome, highlighting its association with abnormal brain calcifications and varied clinical symptoms in young to middle-aged adults. Diagnosis involves specific criteria and CT scans, but no specific treatment exists; therapy focuses on managing symptoms and underlying conditions.

This study found that Flammulina velutipes polysaccharides-derived scaffolds greatly enhanced wound healing and hair follicle regeneration in a rat model, particularly with the FPS/NaOH variant showing the best results.

This study found that FGF signaling is necessary for the initiation of feather placode development in chicken embryos, with FGF10 being implicated as an early dermal signal in the process.

This study found that segmental single hair analysis produced ocfentanil concentration profiles similar to those from hair lock analysis, supporting its use in cases with limited samples.

This report suggests that patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax should be evaluated for FLCN mutations, as they may indicate Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome and associated cancer risks.

This study found that NNAT is localized in both undifferentiated and differentiated cells across various rat tissues and has cell-specific intracellular localization, suggesting distinct functional roles.

This case report describes the first known instance of fibrosing alopecia associated with cutaneous lichen planus, suggesting fibrosing alopecia may be a variant of lichen planopilaris.

This case report highlights the diagnosis of folliculotropic mycosis fungoides in a 15-year-old boy with atypical skin and hair follicle changes, a rare occurrence in pediatric patients.

This review discusses the complex nature of frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting it is a misnomer and possibly a subset of lichen planopilaris, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that females with frontal fibrosing alopecia had more preauricular lines than age-matched controls, indicating a potential new clinical marker for the condition.

This case report describes a patient with frontal fibrosing alopecia experiencing significant hair regrowth and reversal of cutaneous atrophy after treatment with the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride.

This case report highlights that frontal fibrosing alopecia may be underrecognized in young women and notes that no single treatment regimen has been proven consistently effective for this condition.

In this study, LED therapy for eyebrow loss in older females with frontal fibrosing alopecia significantly increased eyebrow hair count after 10 treatments and maintained improvement at 6 months, indicating it could be a promising and well-tolerated treatment option.

This review discusses the potential causes and treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia but reports no new clinical findings, highlighting the need for further research to understand its pathogenesis and develop validated treatments.

Hair loss in male frontal fibrosing alopecia may spare areas covered by a wristwatch.

In this study, intralesional triamcinolone acetonide injections were associated with halting the progression of frontal fibrosing alopecia in female patients and showed minimal adverse effects, but the efficacy as sole therapy remains unclear pending further trials.

This study tested a folate-conjugate drug delivery system and found its cytotoxicity depends on whether the treated cells overexpress folate receptors, suggesting potential for targeted chemotherapy.
