This study found that trichoscopy is highly effective for diagnosing different types of alopecia, showing an average diagnostic accuracy of 90–95%, with specific features aiding in differentiating forms like androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata. New technologies and AI improve interpretation objectivity, suggesting expanded clinical integration.

This review highlights the psychosocial impact of alopecia and discusses the limited guidelines for hair transplantation, focusing on patient candidacy, pretransplant optimization, and management of intraoperative and postoperative challenges.

This study examined 15 female patients with hypothyroidism to investigate the characterization of their alopecia and ruled out other causes, using medical histories, and clinical, trichoscopic, and histologic findings.

This review discusses atypical presentations of Brauer nevus, particularly in occipital and mid-frontal areas, and reports a higher occurrence in males, with detection usually at birth.

This study found that follicular unit transplantation is an effective and minimally invasive technique for camouflaging scarring alopecia in the head and neck area, achieving a graft survival rate of 86% and high patient satisfaction.

In this study, autotransplanted interfollicular epidermis keratinocytes in a collagen dermis framework formed follicular-like structures, but their proliferation ceased after 15-20 days.

This review discusses the complications of subcutaneous contraception and emphasizes the importance of adequately counseling patients on potential side effects to aid informed decision-making; however, it reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the kinetic and topographical heterogeneity in follicular thyroid neoplasms and reports no new research findings; the authors emphasize understanding diverse growth patterns.

This study reports that two mouse models of scarring alopecia exhibit similar patterns of hair loss progression despite histological differences in inflammatory cell localization and MHC class I expression.

Higher IGF-1 levels in hair follicles link to better finasteride results for hair loss.

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

This study found that microneedling combined with growth factors significantly improved blood circulation, hair thickness, strand resistance, and psychological well-being in patients with androgenetic alopecia, suggesting this combination as a promising and safe treatment option.

This study reported that dilated follicular infundibula are a highly useful histopathologic criterion for diagnosing alopecia areata, particularly during its recovery stage.

This abstract does not contain research results or findings.

This review summarizes recent advancements in follicular targeting for drug delivery via hair follicles and calls for pilot studies in humans to explore potential clinical applications.

This study found that osteopontin mRNA is abundantly expressed in dermal papilla cells during the catagen phase of hair growth in rats, suggesting a role in this phase.

This study revealed that in androgenic alopecia, the proximal attachment of the arrector pili muscle to the hair follicle is often lost or significantly reduced.

In this study, a curved nonrotary punch was found to achieve the lowest follicular unit transection rates of less than 5% compared to conventional rotary punches in hair transplantation for patients with tightly curled Afro-textured hair.

This study suggests that label-retaining cells in the hair follicle contribute to follicular renewal, indicating a specific role in the hair cycle by proliferating during the late telogen phase.

This case report describes a 29-year-old Japanese man with follicular mucinosis, suggesting nestin-positive, multipotent hair follicle stem cells may be involved in reticular epithelial degeneration of the outer root sheath.

This report details a refined hair transplantation method called direct no-shave follicular unit excision (DNS FUE), which avoids donor-site shaving and minimizes follicular trauma while yielding high patient satisfaction.

Hidradenitis Suppurativa is likely an autoinflammatory disease, and better understanding its causes could improve treatments.

This review discusses follicular and scarring disorders in skin of color and highlights the need for patient education and tailored therapeutic strategies, but does not report new clinical findings.

This study found that body hair transplantation using follicular unit extraction was effective and resulted in high satisfaction among selected patients with limited scalp donor hair.

This report found follicular red dots in patients with scalp pigmentary disorders, suggesting they might be linked to the scalp's vascular structure and may have implications for conditions like discoid lupus erythematosus.

This article explores the complexity and significance of the hair follicle, emphasizing new insights into its biological roles and the involvement of p53 in follicular regression.

This review discusses strategies to identify, prevent, and manage complications in FUE and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that using a standardized protocol with microspheres of approximately 1.5 micrometers enhances penetration into hair follicles, particularly when skin is treated with cyanoacrylate skin surface stripping.

The researchers reported that DHT-inducible DKK-1 may play a significant role in DHT-driven balding by inhibiting hair follicle cell growth and promoting apoptosis in androgenetic alopecia.

This article discusses the role of hair follicles in enhancing topical drug delivery and explores strategies for targeting these areas to improve treatment outcomes for skin diseases, but reports no new research results.
