Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and hair loss had non-scarring alopecia with fewer hair follicles, and direct immunofluorescence did not help identify lupus.

Transverse scalp biopsy sections help diagnose different alopecias by showing hair follicle details and inflammation patterns.

Patients with SLE experienced non-scarring hair loss with fewer hair follicles, and DIF did not help identify lupus.

Women with lupus experienced non-scarring hair loss with fewer hair follicles, and the test for lupus in hair was not helpful.

Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and hair loss had fewer hair follicles and non-scarring alopecia; direct immunofluorescence was not helpful in diagnosing lupus in these cases.

The document suggests "anisotrichosis" as a new term for hair thickness variation in common baldness.

Middle-aged women with chronic telogen effluvium experience increased hair shedding but usually don't get significantly thinner hair.

Cutting scalp biopsies in consecutive slices improves diagnosis of hair loss conditions.

Transverse scalp biopsies are more accurate for diagnosing non-cicatricial alopecia, but examining both types is best for accuracy.

The document concludes that different types of hair loss have specific treatments, and early diagnosis is crucial for preventing permanent hair loss.

Different types of hair loss have unique features under a microscope, but a doctor's exam is important for accurate diagnosis.

Frontal fibrosing alopecia is a hair loss condition in postmenopausal women, similar to lichen planopilaris, with ineffective treatments.

Lichen planopilaris in men often involves scalp redness and itching, with some also having hair loss, mucosal lichen planus, or thyroid disease, and treatment improved symptoms in nearly half of the cases.

The document describes how to tell different types of non-scarring hair loss apart by looking at hair and scalp tissue under a microscope.

The most effective way to diagnose non-scarring hair loss is by transverse sectioning, and some cases, particularly in males with inflammation around hair follicles, might be curable.

The document concludes that "hot comb alopecia" is now called "central cicatricial centrifugal alopecia" and its causes are complex.

Hair loss in androgenetic alopecia may be due to ongoing tiny inflammation and tissue changes around hair follicles.

A woman's hair loss was misdiagnosed as alopecia areata but was actually lichen planopilaris, needing immediate and ongoing treatment.

AGA patients have fewer hairs and smaller follicles; T:V ratio above 4:1 may indicate AGA.

Aging alone rarely causes significant hair loss; hormones are a bigger factor.

Peripilar signs can help diagnose androgenetic alopecia and reveal its cause.

Children with loose anagen hair have easily pluckable hair due to root sheath problems, and it might improve without treatment.

Researchers found a white halo around hair in most patients with a specific type of hair loss, which helps in early diagnosis and treatment.

Hair transplantation may not work for Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia as transplanted hair was lost when the disease came back.

Polarized microscopy is a quick and free method to correctly identify types of hair loss.

Horizontally sectioned scalp biopsies are more reliable for diagnosing hair loss in women when three samples are taken instead of one.

CD3+ T-cell presence is a reliable marker to tell apart alopecia areata from pattern hair loss.

The study found unique skin changes in a rare type of alopecia linked to a skin condition called linear morphea.

Hair casts and cutaneous spicules can be signs of multiple myeloma.

The research found that a specific gene mutation causes fewer hair follicles and disrupted hair growth cycles, leading to thin and short hair in people with Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy.
