This article is a letter to the editor about fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution and reports no new research findings.

Finasteride may help treat frontal fibrosing alopecia, but more research is needed.

This study found that finasteride treatment decreased VEGF expression in the prostate tissue of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, although it did not affect vascular density or serum VEGF levels.

This report describes two unusual cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia in men, highlighting potential vaccine-related immune triggers and genetic factors, especially regarding the pronounced facial papular phenotype observed.

This study involved 69 hair experts using a Delphi process to achieve consensus on treating frontal fibrosing alopecia, finding strong agreement on disease monitoring but less on physical and systemic therapies, indicating the need for more research.

This study established a simple and accurate LC-MS method for quantifying vinflunine in Beagle dog plasma, supporting pharmacokinetic research in this context.

In this study, 18F-FDG PET/CT revealed increased FDG uptake in the scalp of a woman after platelet-rich plasma therapy, indicating potential inflammatory changes.

This study on a 30-year-old male reported that single-hair follicular unit transplant effectively repigmented a stable vitiligo patch, achieving complete pigmentation in 8 weeks with no recurrence after 6 months.

In this retrospective study of 1,415 male hair transplant patients, punch technology improvements for the FUE method were associated with an increased number of total grafts and multi-hair follicular units over time, making FUE a preferred choice for hair transplantation.

Early diagnosis of frontal fibrosing alopecia is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss.

This article highlights the significant hair transplant results achieved with the potentially obsolete FUT technique and includes varied expert opinions on its efficacy, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study optimized and validated a dissolution test method for immediate-release finasteride capsules, highlighting the need for an official standard due to variability in commercial products.

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.

Among patients with biopsy-proven FAPD in specialized hair clinics, this study found the condition is common in females around 52.5 years old, with treatment generally stabilizing or slightly improving hair loss, despite challenges in differentiating FAPD from androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that VEGF, produced by human dermal papilla cells, can promote hair growth in vitro without increasing the proliferation of dermal papilla cells.

This study in Asian females found that higher use of moisturizers and sunscreen among FFA patients may reflect appearance concerns rather than indicating a direct link to the disease mechanism.

This report describes an extremely rare case of arteriovenous fistula appearing after hair restoration surgery, observed in just one instance.

This review covers the clinical presentation and challenges in treating frontal fibrosing alopecia in postmenopausal women and concludes that more research is needed to understand its etiology and develop effective treatments.

This study found that patients with BPH who received finasteride before TURP experienced reduced intraoperative blood loss and improved quality of life one month after surgery compared to those who did not.

This study found that combining high-frequency ultrasound with clinical examination significantly improved the diagnostic accuracy of invisible subcutaneous lesions from 47.3% to 80.8%, especially for conditions like epidermoid cysts and lipomas, although it was less effective for rarer lesions such as dermatofibromas.

This letter details a case report on platelet-rich plasma treatment for a patient with treatment-resistant frontal fibrosing alopecia, but it does not provide new clinical results.

This article reviews the role of VEGF in hair follicle growth and cycle modulation but concludes that its specific molecular mechanisms in hair follicle growth remain unclear.

This meta-analysis suggests that certain VEGF gene polymorphisms may be linked to polycystic ovary syndrome risk, potentially serving as early detection biomarkers.

In this patient series, researchers observed that subcutaneous scalp injections of adipose tissue enriched with stem cells showed potential as a safe and promising treatment for early genetic hair loss in men and women, based on photographic and quantitative assessments.

This study presents two cases correlating the clinical appearance of adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy with optical coherence tomography findings, describing the location of the yellow vitelliform material.

FUE hair transplants have improved to give more natural results with less scarring and pain.

This study reviewed 38 cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia, observing that diagnosis often occurs years after onset and is more prevalent in postmenopausal women.

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.

In this study, a computer-aided imaging system accurately measured the width of balding areas in female pattern hair loss, correlating strongly with clinical staging severity.

This study found that the film-trigger applicator system enhanced drug delivery efficiency and skin penetration of dissolving microneedles compared to traditional patch systems in both lab and animal models.
