Most hair loss in children is caused by a few common conditions, and it's important to diagnose these properly and support the child's mental health.

This article discusses genetic hair disorders in children, outlining diagnostic approaches and highlighting the significance of distinguishing isolated hair defects from those associated with syndromes, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that certain T cell-associated genes were upregulated in dogs with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome and vitiligo, suggesting a shared immunopathogenesis with humans.

This piece explains that 90% to 95% of pediatric alopecia cases are due to four main causes: alopecia areata, telogen effluvium, tinea capitis, and trichotillomania, with diagnosis typically confirmed through careful examination.

This article discusses primary cicatricial alopecias, a group of rare inflammatory scalp disorders resulting in permanent hair loss, and reports no new findings.

This review discusses histologic findings in alopecia and emphasizes the importance of understanding normal follicular anatomy and cycles in transverse sections, without reporting new results.

In this study, trichoscopic features aiding differential diagnosis of alopecia in Korean patients were found to be similar to those in Caucasians, but pigment pattern frequencies differed due to racial characteristics.

This review discusses the histologic features of nonscarring alopecia and highlights the importance of clinical-pathological correlation for accurate diagnosis, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, RT1640 was found to promote hair pigment system regeneration and expand melanocyte stem cell pools in a mouse model, suggesting potential applications for aging-related hair disorders.

In this study, pediatric patients with overt polyautoimmunity frequently had systemic lupus erythematosus as an index disease, with clustering patterns revealing familial influence on autoimmune disease aggregation.
