This study identified a new subtype of lichen planopilaris that mimics androgenetic alopecia, selectively affecting vellus hair follicles and presenting unique histopathological features.

This case study describes an elderly woman with distinctive black hair patches and scalp pigmentation, but it does not provide a diagnosis or new findings.

This study found that clinically non-affected perilesional scalp in Japanese alopecia patients often showed microscopic abnormalities, which may help in assessing the spread of disease activities.

This article reviews nonscarring and scarring hair loss conditions that may mimic androgenetic alopecia, reporting no new clinical results and highlighting the need for accurate diagnosis in hair restoration surgery.

This case report observed complete repigmentation of a stable vitiligo patch with body hair transplantation in a 28-year-old man, with no recurrence after 3 months.

This study found that in Alopecia Areata, increased non-anagen terminal follicles and peribulbar lymphocytic infiltrate are consistent histological features, even in cases that have progressed to scarring.

This case report describes a 54-year-old man diagnosed with fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution, presenting with follicular inflammatory lesions and scleroatrophy on the scalp.

This review addresses the complexities in trichoscopy terminology and proposes an updated diagnostic flowchart for hair diseases, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This review summarizes trichoscopic features for diagnosing common hair loss disorders and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing their diagnostic utility in conditions like alopecia areata and trichotillomania.

This study examined 56 Thai patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, finding frontotemporal hairline recession and eyebrow loss were common, and reported better disease stabilization with combination treatments of topical corticosteroids with hydroxychloroquine or finasteride.

This study adds evidence suggesting a genetic component to frontal fibrosing alopecia, with daughters experiencing an earlier onset than their mothers, although the clinical pattern remains similar to non-familial cases.

In this retrospective study, researchers observed that additional rounds of intravenous corticosteroid pulse therapy led to only partial hair regrowth in some rapidly progressive alopecia areata cases, with all participants experiencing relapse, indicating limited efficacy for severe cases resistant to initial treatment.

This correspondence discusses the diagnostic criteria for frontal fibrosing alopecia but reports no new research findings, agreeing with many previously suggested criteria.

This study reports that most cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia did not show significant improvement with available treatments, and effective management remains unproven.

This study suggests that early initiation of treatment in fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution may lead to a more favorable outcome, as evident in some patients experiencing arrested disease progression and hair regrowth.

This study found that limb hair loss in frontal fibrosing alopecia is inflammatory and permanent, but lacks the classic scarring features seen in scalp alopecia, prompting potential misdiagnosis as alopecia areata.

This study describes a newly observed "inflammatory vellus involvement" pattern in early frontal fibrosing alopecia, which may lead to misdiagnosis due to the absence of typical histological features.

Stress may affect hair growth by influencing hair follicle development and could contribute to hair loss.

Minoxidil may help hair regrowth in alopecia areata by affecting T-cells.

This report describes a case of fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution in a postmenopausal woman, highlighting its distinction from other forms of lichen planopilaris and pattern hair loss.

This article notes the importance of graft quality in hair restoration surgery, particularly in Follicular Unit Excision, but offers no new research findings.

This study observed that different vitiligo lesions display varying repigmentation patterns, which are associated with the extent of depigmentation, sun exposure, lesion stage, and type of therapy used.

This case report describes a 38-year-old male with scarring body hair loss as the sole manifestation of lichen planopilaris, characterized by progressive alopecia and preceding itching.

This study found that trichoscopy has limited value for diagnosing telogen effluvium, as common findings are not specific enough to differentiate it from other conditions like androgenetic alopecia.

This case report documents two postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia whose hair loss stabilized after treatment with topical corticosteroids, one also using minoxidil.

The author clarifies observations from their earlier article on psoriatic alopecia, including three types of hair loss associated with psoriasis, particularly noting hair loss within lesions due to dystrophic anagen follicles.

No results are provided in this article as it lacks an available abstract, making it unclear what effects apremilast and tofacitinib have in a humanized mouse model of alopecia areata.

This study found poor agreement among dermatopathologists in identifying and grading fibrosis in traction alopecia, suggesting the need for better diagnostic methods for early fibrosis detection.

This review discusses the complex nature of frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting it is a misnomer and possibly a subset of lichen planopilaris, but reports no new clinical results.

This report describes three cases of hair loss that appear consistent with cicatricial pattern hair loss, a possible new subtype of scarring alopecia presenting in a female pattern hair loss distribution.
