This study found that androgenetic alopecia can affect the occipital region in men with advanced stages of the condition.

This study found that transverse sections of scalp biopsies, particularly looking at the anagen:non-anagen hair ratio and presence of pigment casts, effectively distinguish alopecia areata from androgenetic alopecia.

This case report describes a 45-year-old woman with diffuse nonscarring alopecia characterized by hair thinning, increased catagen/telogen follicles, and mild inflammatory infiltrate, highlighting the diagnostic findings via scalp dermoscopy and biopsy.

This document includes a brief professional profile of Dr. Ralf Paus but presents no research findings or study results.

Examining scalp biopsies in different ways helps better diagnose hair loss types.

In this study, the authors compared trichoscopy findings for different forms of diffuse non-cicatricial alopecia in females and suggested that trichoscopy might often replace the need for histopathological confirmation, reserving biopsies for more uncertain cases.

A hairless patch on a boy's scalp from birth injury improved with minoxidil treatment.

The researchers noted that cell therapy using dermal papilla cells may be a future strategy for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study identified two distinct trichoscopic patterns in the mid-frontal scalp of patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia who also display clinical features of androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that the cross-section trichometer (HairCheck device) can accurately and sensitively measure hair mass index changes, offering a convenient tool for assessing hair density and diameter in patients with alopecia.

This article discusses modern hair restoration surgery techniques, the concept of follicular units, and preoperative evaluation considerations, but it reports no new clinical results.

This report presents a rare case of diffuse hair loss resembling alopecia areata, following a tick bite on the scalp.

In this study, researchers observed that a hidden scalp condition could contribute to acne keloidalis nuchae and potentially other primary cicatricial alopecias, impacting their diagnosis and treatment.

This study observed that inflammation in androgenetic alopecia samples was similar to alopecia areata controls, but infundibular and isthmic inflammation were significantly more common in androgenetic alopecia cases.

This review discusses recent advances in understanding the pathophysiology and molecular mechanisms of androgenetic alopecia in males, females, and children, but reports no new clinical results.

This correspondence highlights existing research on pattern hair loss, discussing findings about immune deposits, lymphocytic infiltration, and responses to treatment, and calls for future well-controlled studies.

Finasteride may help treat frontal fibrosing alopecia, but more research is needed.

This review covers female pattern hair loss, outlining its progression, existing treatments like topical minoxidil and laser therapy, and notes that anti-androgen therapies need further investigation.

This article discusses the causes, characteristics, and management of female-pattern hair loss without reporting new clinical results and emphasizes the need for treatment to prevent further hair density decline.

This article reviews optimal patient selection and donor site quality for successful hair transplant procedures, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that a combination of probiotic strains of Lactiplantibacillus administered over 16 weeks reduced the number and density of telogen hairs in individuals with androgenic alopecia, while increasing the abundance of Lactobacillus in their gut microbiota.

This review discusses common mistakes in follicular unit transplantation and provides guidance for practitioners to enhance patient outcomes, but reports no new clinical results.

In this case report, a 38-year-old woman with lifelong monilethrix and progressive frontal scalp thinning associated with androgenetic alopecia highlights the diagnostic and management challenges when these hair conditions coexist.

In this case study, a 38-year-old woman with monilethrix, a hair shaft disorder causing hair fragility, was also diagnosed with androgenetic alopecia, leading the authors to emphasize the complexity in diagnosing and managing such combined hair conditions.

In this case report, a 38-year-old woman with monilethrix, a hair shaft disorder, was found to have both hair fragility and androgenetic alopecia, highlighting the diagnostic and management challenges posed by coexisting hair conditions.

In this hospital-based cross-sectional study, researchers found that alopecia is more prevalent in younger patients, with alopecia areata and lichen planopilaris being the most common types among noncicatricial and cicatricial cases, respectively; additionally, thyroid abnormalities were frequently associated with both types of alopecia.

This study found that men aged 33 to 44 with androgenetic alopecia experienced significant hair improvement over 7 months after treatment with autologous cells using the Rigenera® system, as evaluated by HairMetrix® technology.

Hair diameter diversity helps assess hair loss, but its standard measure varies by individual and ethnicity.

This review outlines the functional anatomy, pathology, and molecular mechanisms of androgenetic alopecia, emphasizing the need for multi-omics approaches to better understand this condition's biology.

This study suggests that male androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss follow distinct progression pathways, characterized by different trichoscopic patterns related to hair diameter and follicular unit changes.
