This study found that the TrichoScan method detected significant increases in hair counts and cumulative hair thickness in men after finasteride treatment, suggesting its potential for monitoring hair treatment responses.

This case report describes a 41-year-old woman with alopecia mucinosa presenting multiple enlarging facial plaques, indicating a potentially non-benign course despite prior classifications.

This study suggests that trichoscopy may assist in diagnosing pemphigus, particularly for scalp-specific lesions, by identifying certain characteristic features.

This study describes tumor necrosis factor inhibitor-associated psoriatic alopecia, highlighting the distinctive histologic feature of sebaceous lobule atrophy, which is potentially reversible and helps differentiate it from idiopathic psoriatic alopecia.

This case report describes a 6-year-old girl diagnosed with monilethrix despite no familial history and treated with a topical minoxidil trial.

The document concludes that clinicians should be aware of common hair and scalp disorders in women of African descent and that more research is needed to develop effective treatments.

This study presents the first reported case of kerion-type scalp mycosis caused by Aspergillus protuberus, emphasizing the importance of mycological examination when diagnosing unusual scalp infections, especially in children.

This review discusses the classification and diagnosis of primary scalp alopecia, focusing on scarring and non-scarring types, and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes simplified diagnostic pathways and tissue processing techniques.

This review examines various conditions that resemble androgenetic alopecia, analyzing their pathogenesis and highlighting the difficulties they pose for accurate diagnosis and treatment; it reports no clinical results.

This paper reports a case of sebaceous carcinoma developing at the site of chronic candidiasis in a patient with keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome, without presenting new generalizable findings.

A man with both skin lesions and lung cancer improved quickly with chemotherapy, suggesting the skin condition might be a reaction to immune system injury.

This case report describes how trichoscopy helped diagnose tinea capitis disguised as female pattern hair loss in cases of endothrix infection, highlighting its usefulness in avoiding misdiagnosis.

This report describes two cases of atypical Malassezia folliculitis in immunosuppressed patients, highlighting diagnostic challenges due to non-classical presentation in non-seborrheic areas.

This article reviews the differences between scarring and non-scarring alopecias and describes diagnostic methods but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, authors reported that reflectance confocal microscopy may aid in diagnosing trichofolliculoma by identifying specific features correlated with histopathology that can be difficult to discern with other methods.

A teenager's hair with alternating white and dark bands, known as Pili annulati, is a genetic condition that is usually harmless and often considered attractive.

This study found that patients with androgenetic alopecia experienced more severe symptoms than those with alopecia areata, influencing their quality of life differently based on various patient characteristics.

This study reports that ivermectin-based therapy, combined with antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, and supportive treatments, effectively led to clinical recovery within 10-21 days in six dogs with varying severity of demodicosis.

This study reports that treating a feline with progressive pruritus, alopecia, and FIV infection with imidacloprid and moxidectin resulted in remission of clinical signs and elimination of Demodex cati mites, as confirmed by parasitological examination and genetic sequencing.

This study found that combining dermoscopy with reflectance confocal microscopy is more sensitive and specific than using either method alone for assessing vitiligo disease activity and treatment response. Additionally, specific characteristics observed via these techniques correlated with either good or poor treatment outcomes.

This study found that both reflectance confocal microscopy and optical coherence tomography can visualize detailed hair follicle abnormalities in various skin disorders, but larger, higher-quality studies are needed for clinical implementation.

This chapter classifies various benign skin tumors and discusses their characteristics, treatment indications, and potential for recurrence, but reports no new clinical findings.

A woman was injured by a hedgehog falling on her, causing skin lesions but no disease.

Alopecia areata is a common autoimmune condition causing varying hair loss, diagnosed by specific patterns of inflammation around hair follicles, with several treatment options available.

This abstract contains only journal subscription and informational content and does not present any research findings.

This study suggests that Malassezia spp. overgrowth may contribute to pruritus and skin lesions in allergic cats, with antifungal treatments alone providing substantial improvements.

This study observed that hairless HRS/J mice were resistant to Bacillus anthracis infection at the skin's surface, suggesting resistance may be due to increased dermal neutrophils rather than non-functional hair follicles.

Children's hair loss has many causes and requires careful diagnosis and personalized treatment, including emotional support.

This case report describes a canine with alopecia areata universalis treated with oral ciclosporin, which was associated with hair regrowth, but some areas remained hairless after 17 months.

This case report describes the first dermoscopic evaluation of alopecia areata-like disease in a dog, where the condition mirrored human cases in terms of clinical presentation and treatment response.
