This study highlights various inflammatory conditions affecting the scalp, excluding infectious origins or primary causes of alopecia, and underscores the importance of early recognition for effective treatment to improve scalp health.

In this study of 20 patients with erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp, using trichoscopy improved diagnosis, and treatments with high-potency steroids or topical tacrolimus effectively reduced inflammatory signs, suggesting these as first-line treatments.

In this case report, a 31-year-old man developed erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp after hair transplant surgery, highlighting potential surgical trauma as a trigger for this condition in younger patients.

This case report describes a 57-year-old Japanese female who developed scarring alopecia linked to gefitinib, an EGFR inhibitor, with improvement in hair loss after reducing the drug dosage.

In this case report, a 65-year-old woman with non-small cell lung cancer experienced scarring alopecia with papulo-pustular lesions on the scalp due to gefitinib treatment, marking it as a rare instance of gefitinib-induced erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp.

This review suggests that androgenetic alopecia may be exacerbated by exposure to ultraviolet radiation and proposes considering it as a photoaggravated condition requiring photoprotection.

This study found that adnexal acantholysis does not reliably distinguish pemphigus vulgaris from pemphigus foliaceus, but the level of acantholysis and degree of dyskeratosis serve as distinguishing features among acantholytic disorders.

This review discusses erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp, including its characteristics, potential triggers, and its classification as a neutrophilic dermatosis, but reports no new clinical findings.

This case study reports a 15-year-old female diagnosed with traumatic anserine folliculosis linked to prolonged friction on the chin, with improvement noted upon adjusting behaviors causing pressure.

This study highlights two cases of Mudichood dermatosis in Pune, Maharashtra, suggesting the condition may occur outside its typical geographic range due to hair management practices causing friction.

This study found that a combination of the Tri-energy factor 5.5% booster and photodynamic therapy significantly improved hair density and reduced single follicular units in patients with androgenetic alopecia, compared to minoxidil or booster alone, supporting the inclusion of photodynamic therapy in comprehensive treatment.

This study suggests that the presence of Malassezia yeast in biopsy specimens from cats with multifocal or generalized skin lesions indicates the need for a thorough assessment for internal neoplasia.

This article discusses the multifactorial etiopathogenesis of acne vulgaris, highlighting the roles of sebum production, keratosis, bacterial development, and inflammatory mediators, but reports no new clinical results.

Different types of hair loss in dogs and cats have various causes and treatments, with outcomes ranging from good to uncertain.

This study found that intracorneal vacuoles were common in various parakeratotic skin diseases in dogs, but large vacuoles were exclusively observed in congenital follicular parakeratosis.

This case report describes an 18-year-old woman with a pruritic rash featuring extensive confluent scaly erythema, hyperkeratotic follicular plugging, and waxy keratoderma on palms and soles.

This case study reports a female adult patient with annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma on the scalp, observed through dermoscopy showing multiple yellowish/orange follicular dots against an erythemato-whitish background.

This study identified key dermoscopic features in folliculotropic mycosis fungoides patients, showing that dilation of follicular openings and spiky follicular keratosis are specific indicators of follicular involvement, potentially aiding in diagnosis, classification, and treatment decisions.

This case report highlights a rare instance of follicular mucinosis in a 15-year-old male, emphasizing its self-limiting, benign course but noting the need for long-term monitoring due to potential association with mycosis fungoides.

This review highlights the occurrence of yellow dots, a trichoscopic finding, in several scalp conditions beyond alopecia areata and reports no new clinical results.
