The authors concluded that some patients clinically diagnosed with telogen effluvium may actually have alopecia areata incognita, suggested by the presence of dystrophic hairs and development of alopecia patches.

This review presents an objective analysis of female androgenetic alopecia, discussing clinical and dermoscopic examination approaches but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, severe diffuse hair loss in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus was associated with distinct clinical, dermoscopic, and histopathological features, which improved alongside treatment of the underlying condition.

This study found that dermoscopy is an effective tool for diagnosing and monitoring androgenetic alopecia in women, as it helped identify common signs such as hair miniaturization and peripilar brown halo.
