A woman got melanoma on her scalp after anti-hair loss treatment with injections.

This article discusses the presence of dirty dots as a normal trichoscopic finding in children, noting they are not observed in adults or other age groups, and reports no new results.

This study highlights that scalp hair loss is an underreported side effect of somatostatin analogs therapy, potentially linked to decreased GH/IGF-1 levels or a direct drug effect.

This study found that scalp necrosis in hair restoration procedures primarily occurs in the central region, particularly on the right parietal aspect, and proposed a method to prevent this complication.

This review covers trichoscopy's role in diagnosing scalp disorders, emphasizing its potential to improve clinical accuracy, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that the calculated and experimental electronic and vibrational properties of minoxidil were in good agreement, providing detailed insights into its molecular structure and thermal behaviors.

In this case report, erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp in a 49-year-old man showed improvement with daily application of 0.1% mometasone furoate cream.

This article explains that proliferating trichilemmal tumors, originating in the hair follicle, can exhibit low-grade malignant potential, and recommends wide excision to minimize recurrence risk, but reports no new clinical findings.

Combining Ficlatuzumab and Gefitinib can cause severe hair loss.

This study found that lichen planopilaris is a common cause of scalp scarring alopecia in adults and has distinctive clinical features that help differentiate it from other similar conditions.

This study suggests that breast cancer-associated phospholipids may alter the X-ray diffraction pattern of hair, potentially enabling the development of a sensitive and specific screening test for breast cancer.

A woman developed rare, unexplained curly hair on her scalp and eyelashes.

This study found that psoriasis patients with scalp involvement had a significantly lower anagen ratio and higher telogen ratio compared to healthy individuals, indicating an association with an increased telogen/anagen ratio.

Chemical treatments can change the scale heights of wool and cashmere fibers, affecting their identification.

Scale created to measure hair loss in men and women; MK-386 reduces acne; Niaspan treats dyslipidemia; minoxidil increases heart rate.

This study found that prolonged acute tissue expansion notably increased the amount of scalp tissue removed during scalp reduction surgery in three patients.

This report describes a rare scalp condition in children with features similar to tinea capitis but shows negative fungal cultures, and suggests possible slow improvement with griseofulvin in two cases.

The document concludes that scalp disorders can be treated with hair washing, specific shampoos, medications, and sometimes surgery or hair transplants, but hereditary baldness is untreatable.

This article reviews the pathophysiology of chemotherapy-induced alopecia and reports that scalp cooling can reduce hair loss by 50% in patients with early breast cancer receiving chemotherapy, without compromising survival or increasing scalp metastasis risk.

This study suggests that using patient-specific products and individualized patch testing can improve the accuracy of diagnosing scalp allergic contact dermatitis in women.

This paper discusses the introduction and advantages of an Insurance-Based Billing Model for scalp cooling devices in the USA, which can enhance access to this treatment for reducing chemotherapy-induced alopecia, particularly benefiting underserved and disadvantaged populations.

In a study involving adults with mild to moderate dandruff, researchers observed that post-hair wash interventions significantly reduced dandruff as measured by three assessment methods, showing substantial reliability and correlation, which supports their use in clinical settings for evaluating scalp dandruff treatments.

This scoping review revealed that methods for measuring traumatic scar thickness using ultrasound are inconsistently reported and mainly remain in early research phases, highlighting a need for standardizing these methods to bridge the gap to routine clinical practice.

This study observed that cutaneous microwounds created by fractional photothermolysis heal differently from typical wounds, displaying rapid re-epithelialization and limited inflammation, which may help reduce scar formation by delaying collagen remodeling and minimizing myofibroblast activation.

In this study, researchers developed a novel image processing method using a multi-class support vector machine that achieved an 89.3% accuracy in classifying alopecia areata and related conditions, outperforming existing models in classification accuracy.

This study found that c-Maf positive M2 macrophages may promote hypertrophic scar formation by enhancing the proliferation, migration, and extracellular matrix deposition of hypertrophic scar fibroblasts through increased TGF-β1 expression.

This study found that using a shampoo containing heat-killed probiotics, GMNL-653, led to decreased dandruff and sebum production and increased hair growth in human participants, with observed microbiota shifts including changes in M. globosa and M. restricta abundance.

This study used a deep learning approach that successfully predicts alopecia, psoriasis, and folliculitis with a 2D convolutional neural network, achieving a training accuracy of 96.2% and validation accuracy of 91.1%.

This study found that combining pulsed dye laser with pingyangmycin improved treatment efficacy, scar repair, skin condition, and patient satisfaction in treating post-acne hyperplastic scars, compared to laser alone, without increasing adverse reactions.

This study identified the most common allergens in hair products linked to scalp allergic contact dermatitis, with hair dyes, shampoos, and conditioners primarily associated with the condition.
