This review discusses combining follicular unit excision (FUE) and linear strip excision (LSE) donor harvesting methods to optimize graft yield while minimizing donor depletion, but provides no new clinical results.

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 case report describes a 47-year-old man diagnosed with fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution, treated with clobetasol propionate and oral minoxidil while advised to avoid hair transplantation.

This study found that integrin alpha-6 and p63 may play a role in hair loss, with variable expression patterns in different types of alopecia observed in scalp biopsy samples.

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 describes the diverse histopathological patterns and clinical features observed in patients with folliculotropic mycosis fungoides, emphasizing the importance of accurate recognition to avoid diagnostic errors.

In this study, researchers found that a low-cost USB dermoscope can effectively detect microscopic hair changes associated with early female pattern hair loss, making it a useful tool for diagnosis even without expensive equipment or programs.

This article presents the surgical technique of long hair follicular unit excision (FUE) in hair transplantation and reports procedural and outcome data for 134 patients, without evaluating clinical outcomes.

This paper identifies Galeal Tension-Induced Follicular Hypoxia as a mechanism for male pattern baldness, proposing a new therapeutic protocol targeting underlying physiological failures rather than just symptoms.

In this case report, a 76-year-old male had an eyelid lesion that mimicked squamous cell carcinoma but was diagnosed as benign inverted follicular keratosis after surgical excision, underscoring the importance of distinguishing between the two for proper management.

This study examined the clinical patterns and trichoscopic features of female pattern hair loss at a rural tertiary care hospital, but it does not report any specific results.

The study observed that patterned fibrosing alopecia, a type of scarring hair loss, appears in some patients after hair transplants, facelifts, and other surgical interventions, sharing features with lichen planopilaris and androgenetic alopecia.

This study found topical finasteride and minoxidil both improved hair loss clinically and trichoscopically more effectively than spironolactone in women with female pattern hair loss.

In this study, trichoscopy was found to be an effective noninvasive tool for diagnosing female pattern hair loss at early stages, potentially eliminating the need for scalp biopsies.

This study suggests that male androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss follow distinct progression pathways, characterized by different trichoscopic patterns related to hair diameter and follicular unit changes.

In this cross-sectional study from a dermatology clinic in Türkiye, researchers reported that the most common skin conditions were acne, dermatophytosis, and viral warts, with a higher prevalence of multiple complaints among women and those presenting with scalp issues.

This case report illustrates that fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution may be misdiagnosed as androgenetic alopecia due to similar hair loss patterns, but distinctive trichoscopic and histopathologic features help differentiate it.

In this study, the researchers reported that early diagnosis and treatment of fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution may arrest or potentially reverse disease progression, though some patients experienced continued hair loss.

This study presents a follicular automaton model that simulates human hair cycle dynamics and can reproduce hair patterns similar to diffuse or androgenetic alopecia by incorporating spatially heterogeneous parameters and follicle miniaturization.

This review describes various T-cell-mediated alopecias characterized by distinct lymphocytic patterns and explores their pathophysiology. It highlights the role of CD8+ and regulatory T cells, the JAK/STAT pathway, and stem cell niches, contributing to understanding and potentially addressing these hair loss conditions.

In this study, researchers found that trichoscopy helps detect early signs of female-pattern hair loss before it is visible, highlighting its importance for monitoring and managing the condition.

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 article discusses the autoimmune causes of alopecia areata and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers observed that patients with androgenetic alopecia show differences in scalp microbial communities compared to the general population, including an increase in Cutibacterium acnes, particularly in males, which may interact with lipid and immune pathways to contribute to hair follicle miniaturization.

This study reports that plasma rich in growth factors appeared to improve hair follicle regeneration and patient satisfaction in individuals with androgenetic alopecia, though further trials are needed.

This study found that administering tolerogenic dendritic cell-conditioned medium to dihydrotestosterone-treated mice promoted hair regrowth by modulating the follicular microenvironment, reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines, and activating key signaling pathways, highlighting its potential as a treatment for androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, FAPD was characterized in a Chinese population by perifollicular mast cell infiltration, suggesting young individuals may be at higher risk than previously thought.

The new topical product combined with finasteride significantly increased hair thickness without side effects.

This letter discusses potential pathogenetic links among frontal fibrosing alopecia, androgenetic alopecia, and fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution and reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that early initiation of treatment in fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution may lead to a more favorable outcome, as evident in some patients experiencing arrested disease progression and hair regrowth.
