This article discusses a case of patchy alopecia areata that spares greying hairs but reports no new findings; it refers to existing literature for context.

In this prospective study, 15 patients with patchy alopecia areata treated with intralesional methotrexate every two weeks showed a significant improvement in hair regrowth and reduction in lesion severity, with changes linked to decreased tissue levels of TNF-α.

Using a higher concentration of triamcinolone acetonide leads to faster hair regrowth in scalp patchy alopecia areata.

This article reports a case of neurodermatitis where a combination of intralesional steroids, oral doxepin, and psychotherapy resulted in complete symptom remission and hair regrowth, highlighting the importance of addressing emotional factors in treatment.

This study describes the clinical profile of scalp alopecia areata among patients at a tertiary care hospital, finding it more common in males, particularly those aged 21-30, with sudden onset and often asymptomatic progression.

This review discusses two genetic disorders affecting biotin metabolism, each resulting in distinctive skin and hair manifestations, and outlines the associated serious metabolic complications.

This study highlights two newly discovered metabolic disorders of biotin, showing distinct skin and hair symptoms and severe complications like acidosis and ketosis.

This study reported that dermoscopy can aid in distinguishing secondary syphilis from other skin conditions by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, though there are no standardized criteria; further research is needed to confirm these findings.

In this Baquba city study, alopecia areata was more prevalent among males aged 21 to 30, with most experiencing single lesions on the head, recurring cases, and a history of psychological stress.

In this cross-sectional study of 100 patients in Baquba, researchers found that alopecia areata was more prevalent in males aged 21-30, with single lesion patches mainly appearing on the head, and observed a significant association with personal stress history.

This study describes the diverse histopathological patterns and clinical features observed in patients with folliculotropic mycosis fungoides, emphasizing the importance of accurate recognition to avoid diagnostic errors.

This resource outlines the focus areas of the Madridge Journal of Dermatology & Research and reports no new clinical findings.

This compilation reviews multiple dermatologic studies, reporting findings such as the lack of a psoriasis-susceptibility allele in cluster 17, and highlighting a mouse model for studying hair follicle formation, among others.

In this study on mice, a baricitinib-loaded microneedle patch enhanced hair growth in alopecia areata lesions (68% vs control: 33%, p < 0.05), suggesting it may deliver treatment effectively and pain-free, with fewer systemic side effects.

In this pilot study, cryotherapy using a device that precisely controls cooling duration improved hair regrowth for patchy alopecia areata when applied for 20 seconds with two freeze-thaw cycles, similar to standard triamcinolone acetonide injections, but not when applied for 10 seconds.

This study introduced a novel framework that significantly improves the accuracy of alopecia areata lesion segmentation in semi-supervised scenarios, outperforming existing methods and aiding in the disease's diagnosis, treatment, and staging, which can impact quality of life and mental well-being.

In this study, applying a biodegradable microneedle patch after topical steroid application significantly increased steroid penetration and improved treatment outcomes in patients with prurigo nodularis compared to the control.

In this case report, two cats with asthma developed localized skin lesions associated with inhalant glucocorticoid use, which resolved after adjusting treatment and administering milbemycin.

This study reported that alopecia occurred in 2.5% of patients with mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome, with some cases resembling alopecia areata and others associated with specific skin lesions.

This case report describes a male infant born to a mother with systemic lupus erythematosus, presenting with neonatal lupus, who improved with conservative management and whose skin lesions resolved by 6 months of age.

In this case report, a unique immunological mechanism was observed in an 11-year-old girl where the presence of one autoimmune disease appeared to prevent the manifestation of another, leading to the withdrawal of one type of lesion when another appeared.

This study found that, among patients in Ismailia, Egypt, patchy alopecia areata was the most common form, with a significant positive correlation between the number of lesions and disease severity, and noted males predominantly affected by this condition.

This report diagnosed a 68-year-old man with comedonal folliculotropic mycosis fungoides based on clinical and histopathological findings, and found pegylated interferon alpha-2a with isotretinoin beneficial in reducing skin lesions.

This case study on a 24-year-old male with Indraluptha (patchy hair loss) found that two cupping sessions followed by the application of Gunjapahala Lepa promoted new hair follicle growth and reduced lesion areas.

This study reported a case where a 46-year-old woman developed alopecia without itching or pain on her scalp due to a cutaneous infection from *Mycobacterium abscessus*, which was resolved after three months of antibacterial treatment, resulting in new hair growth.

This article reports no new clinical findings and provides no abstract, focusing on imipramine-induced lesions resembling alopecia areata.

In this study, the authors emphasize the importance of not ignoring the partial presence of comma or harpin hairs and black spots when identifying early lesions of tinea capitis, which may initially be overlooked due to their small size.

This study reviews the diverse clinical presentations of tinea capitis, such as gray patches, a "black dot" appearance, and kerion, highlighting its complex differential diagnosis with conditions like alopecia areata and psoriasis.

This case report presents a rare manifestation of secondary cutaneous B-cell lymphoma as erythematous macules coalescing into reticular patches on the scalp and forehead.

This randomized controlled trial found that intralesional injections of triamcinolone were significantly more effective than platelet rich plasma for treating alopecia areata on the scalp, although platelet rich plasma was considered a viable alternative due to its lack of serious side effects.
