Early diagnosis and treatment can help manage fibrosing alopecia in older women.

In this hospital-based observational study involving 30 participants, researchers found no statistically significant difference in the force needed to pluck anagen versus telogen hair in the frontal and occipital scalp regions of women with female pattern hair loss.

This case study discusses a postmenopausal woman's frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planus pigmentosus, controlled with corticosteroids and finasteride, highlighting diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in scarring alopecia.

This case report describes the first recorded instance of congenital triangular alopecia in the mid-frontal scalp region, challenging the assumption that it is restricted to the frontotemporal area.

This article discusses the DOAJ, a comprehensive index of international open access journals, and emphasizes its role in providing free quality content online without presenting new research findings.

In this study, the authors reported that frontal rhytidectomy with a pre-hairline incision effectively reduces a long forehead in select patients, with patients feeling the benefits outweighed the visibility of the scar.

This study observed an alopecia syphilitica-like pattern of hair loss in a woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting it may be another atypical presentation of the condition.

In this study, researchers observed that follicular damage and stem cell loss in frontal fibrosing alopecia may be mediated by immune attacks at the bulge region, suggesting potential for JAK/STAT-targeting treatments to prevent progression.

This review discusses the increasing reports of frontal fibrosing alopecia, a form of scarring alopecia, and its potential link to autoimmune disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This review proposes an anatomy-based framework for understanding recipient site scalp necrosis in hair transplantation, emphasizing regional vascular vulnerability and surgical factors, but does not provide new clinical results.

This study describes a 4-year-old boy who exhibits a rare, synchronized pattern of hair growth and shedding, unlike the typical asynchronous pattern seen in humans.

This proposal presents a standardized system for naming areas of the balding scalp to improve communication among hair restoration professionals, defining major regions and introducing new landmarks.

This study observed that 54% of men with male pattern hair loss showed hair growth improvement in the vertex region after 6 months of treatment with oral finasteride.

In this study, a single application of autologous cellular micrografts showed short-term favorable responses in up to two-thirds of patients with androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, researchers observed that men with androgenic alopecia in a Pakistani population had significantly lower hair density than those without hair loss, particularly at the frontal and parietal scalp regions.

The study did not find evidence to support using botulinum toxin as a treatment for androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that topical minoxidil 5% remains the most common treatment for androgenic alopecia due to its high tolerability and patient satisfaction, but topical sildenafil 2% shows promise as an alternative, especially with positive hair thickness outcomes in certain areas.

This study found that combining PRP with topical minoxidil or finasteride significantly improved hair density and thickness, with patient satisfaction highest for multiple treatment combinations and longer durations.

In this study, a 40-year-old man with hair loss showed complete hair regrowth and no relapse 24 weeks after receiving umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell and secretome injections, highlighting their potential for alopecia treatment, although further research involving larger populations is needed.

In this randomized clinical trial, oral minoxidil was not superior to topical minoxidil in increasing hair density in men with androgenetic alopecia over 24 weeks, though photographic analysis suggested oral minoxidil may work better on the vertex area of the scalp.

This article proposes a standardized naming system for areas of the balding scalp to improve communication among hair restoration professionals, but it reports no clinical results.

In this viewpoint, researchers discussed the possible role of the developmental origin of scalp dermis in influencing the specific pattern of hair follicle miniaturization seen in male pattern hair loss, noting that frontal follicles are more susceptible while occipital follicles remain largely terminal.

This publication discusses the use of low-dose oral minoxidil for treating traction alopecia but reports no new clinical outcomes; further research on its efficacy and safety is needed.

This article reviews current diagnostic and treatment approaches for androgenetic alopecia but reports no new results, focusing on its progression and medical management options.

In this study, researchers used trichoscopy to establish standardized findings for normal hair and scalp characteristics in 360 healthy males, noting significant age-related differences in hair diameter variability and identifying potential pathological indicators like colored dots and scarring not present in healthy individuals.

This article discusses how dihydrotestosterone (DHT) contributes to male pattern baldness by affecting genetically sensitive hair follicles and includes no new research findings.

This study found that the cell of origin in mouse skin affects melanoma phenotype and response to therapies, despite the presence of the same genetic mutations.

This abstract discusses the effects of androgenetic alopecia on men's and women's quality of life but reports no new research findings.

This study found that dermoscopy of the axilla in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia revealed significantly higher odds of brownish peripillary halos, suggesting a diagnostic clue for the condition in this region.

This article describes a method for evaluating and treating the temporal peak regions in hair restoration surgery to achieve cosmetic harmony with the frontal hairline, while reporting no new clinical findings.
