The authors concluded that trichoscopic examination can be useful for diagnosing syphilitic alopecia in patients with idiopathic alopecia, though the findings are nonspecific and further studies are needed.

This study presents a new classification of adult human scalp hair patterns based on high-resolution photographs, which may assist hair restoration surgeons and dermatologists in determining appropriate punch size for follicular unit extraction.

This study found that using a bicomponent reduction system with TGA and DTDG for hair straightening limited hair damage by forming only thiol groups, while a TGA-only system formed more damaging mixed disulfide groups.

This study found diverse clinical presentations in patients with newly detected connective tissue disease, highlighting the diagnostic and prognostic importance of cutaneous features.

This article reviews the role of enzymatic processes in drug and toxin metabolism, emphasizing their impact on solubility and elimination, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study found that psychopathological reactions, particularly cognitive impairments such as impaired concentration, are prevalent among patients with diffuse alopecia, with variations in prevalence linked to the genesis of alopecia, notably higher in mixed-type compared to metabolic-type alopecia.

In this study, a 38-year-old male with syphilis-related mixed pattern alopecia showed marked hair regrowth and resolution of postauricular lymphadenopathy after treatment with benzathine penicillin, suggesting that lymph node and hair examinations, along with trichoscopy, can aid in the diagnosis of alopecia syphilitica.

This study examined the mental health of women with diffuse alopecia and found varied levels of mental maladjustment, with more patients with mixed alopecia showing adjustment disorders compared to those with metabolic alopecia. These findings could inform personalized treatment strategies for this condition.

This article discusses primary cicatricial alopecia, highlighting the need for early and precise diagnosis to effectively manage and treat these complex inflammatory hair disorders, but presents no new clinical results.

This review discusses primary cicatricial alopecias, detailing their classification, pathogenesis, clinical features, histopathologic findings, and treatment, without reporting new experimental results.

In this study, women with metabolic and mixed-type alopecia showed different coping strategies; metabolic alopecia patients predominantly used adaptive strategies like problem-solving, while those with mixed alopecia often exhibited maladaptive strategies such as avoidance, with these behaviors being linked to higher levels of psychological maladjustment.

In this study, researchers found that women with mixed-genesis alopecia exhibited more significant psychological maladaptation and disturbances in self-attitude than those with metabolic alopecia, suggesting the importance of tailored psychotherapeutic approaches to improve their psychological adaptation and quality of life.

This study found that women with mixed alopecia exhibited significantly higher levels of depression, anxiety, and stress compared to those with metabolic alopecia, with these emotional disturbances closely linked to heightened mental maladaptation.

This study found that women with mixed alopecia had significantly lower levels of hardiness and resilience compared to those with metabolic alopecia, and these lower adaptive resources were associated with increased psychological maladaptation.

In this study, female patients with mixed alopecia reported significantly lower quality of life compared to those with metabolic alopecia, with poorer psychological well-being and personal fulfillment, linked closely to mental maladaptation severity, suggesting a biopsychosocial treatment approach.

This study examined young Ukrainian men with alopecia areata and found that different severities of the condition were associated with distinct clinical and trichoscopic features, such as variations in hair loss, stress levels, and nail involvement, among others.

In this study, cicatricial alopecias were classified by inflammatory cell type and the researchers highlighted that primary cicatricial alopecia's exact causes remain unknown, accounting for 6% of all hair diseases despite its unclear prevalence.

This study found that women with mixed alopecia experienced significant cognitive impairments, particularly those with adaptation disorders, with symptoms like rapid fatigue and impaired concentration being most prevalent. The cognitive patterns are complex and require further investigation to inform tailored rehabilitation strategies.

In this case report, a 25-year-old female with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease presented unusual symptoms in a specific geographical region, prompting clinicians to approach diagnosis and management with caution due to potential severe complications such as pulmonary hypertension and renal crisis.

This study found that among women with diffuse alopecia, depressive symptoms were common, affecting more than a third of patients, particularly those with mixed alopecia, where the prevalence was three times higher compared to metabolic alopecia.

This study found that among women with diffuse alopecia, 47.7% exhibited psychopathological symptoms, with mixed alopecia patients showing more severe manifestations compared to those with metabolic alopecia, suggesting the need for personalized management strategies.
