In this case report, a 65-year-old woman with lichen planopilaris achieved stabilization of her condition through early recognition and systemic corticosteroid therapy, emphasizing the critical role of coordinated management between primary care and dermatology.

This study found that patients with lichen planopilaris exhibit a higher pro-atherogenic lipid profile and elevated atherogenic indexes, suggesting a need for increased cardiovascular and lipid monitoring in these individuals.

This study involved using smartphone applications and low-cost trichoscopy devices to assess various hair and scalp conditions, with diagnoses confirmed through detailed imaging during remote consultations and in-person evaluations.

This case report describes the first observed instance of fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution in a child, suggesting the condition is not solely androgen dependent.

This study observed that fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution shows varied histological features and may resemble lichen planopilaris with initial diffuse distribution, potentially leading to scarring alopecia.

In this research, RNA expression analysis of scalp biopsies from lichen planopilaris patients revealed changes in specific genes after treatments with hydroxychloroquine, narrow band UVB, or low level laser light therapy, suggesting potential biomarkers and implicating M2 macrophages in the disease's immunopathogenesis.

This abstract discusses the prevalence and forms of lichen planopilaris, a type of scarring hair loss, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that lichen planopilaris is associated with several environmental factors, such as stress and hair dye use, as well as thyroid disorders and genetic components.

This study observed that Black women with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia had a higher prevalence of uterine leiomyomas compared to those with lichen planopilaris, suggesting a potential association between the conditions.

In this pilot study, participants with lymphocytic primary cicatricial alopecia who applied 6% topical gabapentin solution twice daily for 12 weeks experienced significant symptom reduction, though there was no noticeable change in nerve fibre density or neuropeptide expression.

This study found that patients with primary cicatricial alopecia had an 18% higher risk of developing cardiovascular diseases compared to control subjects, with certain subtypes showing a more pronounced increase.

This research letter discusses the use of Janus kinase inhibitors for treating lichen planopilaris, although specific results or conclusions from the study are not provided.

This case study reports the first known instance of lichen planopilaris being associated with multiple autoimmune syndrome in a woman with hypothyroidism and Crohn's disease.

This study observed that adipose tissue infiltration and ESGC displacement in scalp biopsies were more frequently found in frontal fibrosing alopecia and may play a role in the development of scarring alopecia.

This study found that trichoscopy was 73.77% concordant with histopathology in diagnosing patchy alopecia, highlighting its usefulness as a diagnostic tool for conditions like alopecia areata, lichen planus pigmentosus, and discoid lupus erythematosus.

In this study, treatment with oral JAK inhibitors was associated with improved disease outcomes in 80.6% of patients with refractory lichen planopilaris over a mean duration of 5 months.

In this case report, folliculitis decalvans with frontal fibrosing alopecia was observed in a patient with a dark phototype, highlighting the phenotypic spectrum of folliculitis decalvans and lichen planopilaris.

In this study, FAPD was characterized in a Chinese population by perifollicular mast cell infiltration, suggesting young individuals may be at higher risk than previously thought.

This study found that a positive anagen pull test can be an indicator of lichen planopilaris activity, suggesting its utility in the clinical assessment of this condition.

This study reviewed 41 cases of lichen planus pigmentosus in patients from southeastern Tunisia, highlighting its prevalence among older individuals and notable differences compared to patterns observed in an Indian cohort.

This case report highlights a misdiagnosis of traction alopecia that progressed to lichen planopilaris in a patient of color, emphasizing the need to consider LPP in similar cases due to differing treatments.

In this study, a mouse model of scarring alopecia demonstrated significantly reduced CD200R expression in affected skin, which may contribute to immune attacks on hair follicles.

This study reports distinctive clinical, trichoscopic, and histopathological features of fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution among Chinese patients, suggesting possible racial differences compared to previous studies primarily involving Caucasians.

This study reports that CD200R expression is significantly reduced in an experimental mouse model of scarring alopecia, suggesting a potential role for this pathway in immune regulation and hair follicle protection.

This study found that PX-12 inhibited the NLRP3 inflammasome and reduced psoriasis-like symptoms in a mouse model, suggesting its potential as a treatment for psoriasis.

This study suggests that the expression and localization of toll-like receptors and caveolin-1 in lichen planopilaris may influence cicatricial alopecia pathobiology and that downregulating caveolae could offer a novel management strategy.

This case report illustrates that fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution may be misdiagnosed as androgenetic alopecia due to similar hair loss patterns, but distinctive trichoscopic and histopathologic features help differentiate it.

This review discusses the formation of gintonin LPAs in ginseng during processing and reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest potential benefits against degenerative diseases through LPA receptors.

This meta-analysis found that a combination of clobetasol, hydroxychloroquine, and N-acetylcysteine may be the most effective treatment approach for lichen planopilaris compared to other therapies.

In this study, Betula platyphylla extract, particularly fraction H3-2, promoted human derma papilla cell proliferation and increased expression of certain growth factors, suggesting potential benefits for hair loss prevention.
