This study found that while the global incidence of alopecia areata in individuals aged 0–19 declined from 1990-2021, the total number of cases rose, with higher burdens among females, adolescents, and low-SDI populations, particularly in Central Sub-Saharan Africa; disparities suggest a need for targeted interventions.

This study found that keratin 19 may be a marker for skin stem cells, helping to characterize these cells in different conditions and potentially explaining variations in healing rates between children and adults.

This study identified non-structural proteins in preschool children's scalp hair that suggest potential biomarkers for brain development, immune function, and stress response with heritability and age-related differences.

This analysis from Egyptian researchers identified common risk factors associated with chronic telogen effluvium in children, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that AHCC supplementation significantly reduced alopecia severity in Ara-C treated rats and mitigated liver injury-related side effects in mice treated with 6-MP and MTX.

This study explores how children perceive peers with alopecia areata and the social effects associated with the condition, but it reports no new experimental findings.

This study reports increased instances of trichotillomania-related hair loss in young girls during the COVID-19 pandemic, which may be linked to social isolation and school closures.

This study examined family functioning, psychopathology, and quality of life in children and adolescents with alopecia areata, analyzing their relationships with sociodemographic and disease-related variables.

This review discusses treatment strategies for PCOS, focusing on using insulin-sensitizing medications alongside weight reduction and exercise to improve hyperinsulinemia and hyperandrogenism, and reports no new results.

Corkscrew hair may be a new sign for quickly diagnosing scalp fungus in black children.

In this study, seborrheic dermatitis was most prevalent among middle-aged adults and men, with patient presentations peaking during the winter months.

This study found that serum calcium, serum ferritin, and vitamin D3 levels were lower in students with premature graying of hair compared to controls, suggesting a potential role in the condition.

This study found that while vitamin D deficiency is not the sole cause of alopecia areata, it may worsen the disease, suggesting supplementation could help in pediatric cases.

This study found an association between atopic dermatitis and autoimmune diseases in both adults and children, with women more likely to experience these complications, but further research is needed due to limited participant numbers.

This study found that alopecia in four children was linked to severe calcitriol-resistant rickets, suggesting this condition should be considered among inherited hair growth disorders.

Persistent papular plaques on children's faces need better understanding and treatment.

This study found that children with celiac disease who adhered to a gluten-free diet experienced significant improvements in height, weight, and symptoms like diarrhea and abdominal pain, although cases of abdominal distention increased.

This study found that children with alopecia areata had significantly lower levels of vitamin D and B12, and higher thyroid-stimulating hormone and free T4 levels compared to healthy children.

This study analyzed dermatology cases in children during the COVID-19 lockdown in India, finding that most conditions, including pruritic and non-emergency skin diseases, could have been managed through teleconsultation instead of in-person visits.

This study reported an increase in tinea capitis in Stockholm children, mainly caused by Trichophyton violaceum and associated with immigration from Africa and family spread.

This study found that calcitriol-resistant rickets is associated with alopecia in children and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of hair loss.

This paper reports two cases of telogen effluvium in children following HPV vaccination, resolving spontaneously but associated with social and emotional distress.

This article highlights the rising recognition of tinea capitis in children, noting a shift from Microsporum to Trichophyton tonsurans as the main causative agent, with potential implications for day-care centers.

This study suggests that certain climate factors, particularly UV index and precipitation, may influence seasonal flare patterns in children with alopecia areata, especially those with atopic conditions.

This study concludes that fetal skin cells can significantly enhance wound healing and reduce scarring when used to treat severe burns and various wounds in children.

This review highlighted that childhood obesity is linked to early puberty and may impact brain function; however, there is a limited number of neuroimaging studies exploring the relationship between obesity, premature pubarche, and brain functionality, which warrants further research.

This study observed that infections are the most common cause of hair disorders among children visiting clinics, with tinea capitis and pediculosis capitis more prevalent in urban areas, while rural areas showed higher rates of seborrheic dermatitis and alopecia areata.
