Examining scalp biopsies in different ways helps better diagnose hair loss types.

This study observed that videodermoscopic assessments of dermatomyositis patients revealed specific vascular and pigmentary features, suggesting it may be useful for preliminary diagnosis.

This report describes a rare case of pseudopelade of Brocq in a 20-year-old male, emphasizing its unique presentation with scalp hair loss and mild itching.

In this study, researchers developed a new prostate cancer imaging agent, a [99m Tc]tricarbonyl complex derived from finasteride, which demonstrated high radiochemical purity and significant uptake in the prostate of a rat model, suggesting its potential for noninvasive prostate cancer imaging.

This study found that human placenta extract may be a promising pulp-capping material, causing less intense chronic inflammation and thicker dentine bridge formation compared to mineral trioxide aggregate in dogs' teeth.

This study questions whether lymphocytic infiltrate and fibrosis observed after uncomplicated hair transplants might be expected without indicating lichen planopilaris.

This review outlines the classification, histopathologic presentation, and pathogenetic concepts of scarring and nonscarring alopecias, reporting no new clinical results and emphasizing the need for clinicopathologic correlation.

This study investigated the histopathology of ectodermal dysplasia/skin fragility syndrome, identifying specific skin and hair abnormalities associated with PKP1 gene mutations in two young female patients.

Hair loss can be reversed or even cured using advanced hair restoration techniques, with rare complications like swelling and bleeding.

This study found no significant differences in age, sex, or histopathological characteristics for differentiating basal cell carcinoma from benign tumors of cutaneous appendages, complicating diagnosis.

This study suggests that uncontrolled embryonic trichogenesis may play a role in the development of trichoblastoma in rabbits.

This study found that clinically non-affected perilesional scalp in Japanese alopecia patients often showed microscopic abnormalities, which may help in assessing the spread of disease activities.

The researchers developed a technique for processing and staining free hair samples using paraffin embedded blocks, revealing that routine staining does not color the enucleated cuticle, while the cortex and medulla show distinct colorations when stained.

Transverse sections are better for non-scarring hair loss, vertical sections are better for lichen planopilaris, and either method works for other scarring hair loss types.

This study observed that estrogen receptor β and androgen receptor expressions in the skin decline with age, more noticeably under sun exposure, suggesting a role in skin aging.

This study suggests that using trichotillometry to establish the normal range of shear strain for different hair types could inform diagnostic and treatment decisions for various hair conditions.

This narrative review examined skin-sparing techniques in gynecomastia surgery and found satisfactory thoracic remodeling with acceptable morbidity and reduced scarring, but acknowledged methodological differences that limit decisive conclusions.

This abstract presents the book "Buy Medical Physics in Aesthetic Medicine," which explores future innovations and techniques for cosmetic procedures expected in 2025, though specific findings or results from the book are not reported.

This review discusses various non-invasive methods for diagnosing alopecia areata, highlighting that trichoscopy signs like short vellus hairs and yellow dots are sensitive indicators of the condition, while advanced imaging techniques provide valuable information on hair follicle status and scalp inflammation.

This case report describes a flap advancement technique following skin expansion as a successful method to address primary essential cutis verticis gyrata, preserving hair growth and improving cosmetic outcomes.

This study developed and validated a reliable RP-HPLC method for accurately quantifying dutasteride in pharmaceutical formulations and bulk pharmaceuticals using a Shiseido C18 analytical column, demonstrating precision, accuracy, and sensitivity across a concentration range of 10 to 22 ppm.

Small white dots on the scalp seen with a dermoscope correspond to sweat ducts and vary with different hair disorders.

This review discusses the evolution and studies of injection lipolysis for fat reduction, highlighting the need for more research to ensure patient safety and treatment efficacy; it reports no new clinical results.

This review systematically analyzed literature to differentiate desmoplastic trichoepitheliomas from other cutaneous tumors based on clinical, histopathological, and immunohistochemical features but reports no new clinical results.

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

This study found that the occipital scalp is significantly involved in female pattern hair loss, with some patients showing clinically visible alopecia.

In this study, the researchers observed that male pattern alopecia is characterized by miniature follicles, enlarged sebaceous glands, and an increased number of mast cells, without significant abnormalities in enzyme activity.

This case study describes successful treatment of a left temporal scalp arteriovenous malformation through a multidisciplinary approach combining endovascular embolization and surgical excision, resulting in high patient satisfaction.

This study observed that 2.5% of patients with mycosis fungoides or Szary syndrome experienced alopecia, predominantly within skin lesions, with scalp metastases from other cancers also potentially causing hair loss, highlighting the diagnostic value of trichoscopy in differentiating alopecia types.

In this study, 75% of alopecia areata patients showed improvement after treatment with 35% trichloroacetic acid, leading the researchers to conclude it is a safe and effective option for treating this condition.
