This report from the UK reviews the literature on post-menopausal frontal fibrosing alopecia and highlights its under-recognition and distinctive characteristics compared to lichen planopilaris, but does not provide new results.

This study suggests that using a non-medicated, hypo-allergenic scalp clarifying shampoo may improve hair volume and reduce shedding in women with lichen planopilaris and female pattern hair loss.

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 used atomic force microscopy to identify significant morphological differences in hair from patients with lichen planopilaris compared to healthy controls, noting more scratches, uneven edges, and pitted scales in affected hair, which may aid future research on the 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.
