This study found that dissecting folliculitis is more common than previously thought in Taiwan, with obesity possibly linked to higher severity of this condition, but smoking not associated.

In this study, researchers found that WNT activation influenced FGF expression in human scalp-derived fibroblasts, with mouse model results showing FGF9 increased hair follicle number and diameter, while FGF7 reduced diameter.

This paper provides an overview of scalp cooling as an effective and safe intervention for preventing chemotherapy-induced alopecia, addressing its impact on cancer patients and survivors.

This study found that their system effectively supports the rapid formation of human hair follicle organoids, providing a platform for studying hair regeneration and drug screening.

This article reviews the complex challenges of managing scalp and cranial deformities post-trauma or surgery, advocating for better multidisciplinary approaches to enhance outcomes, but reports no new results.

This study found that SDR5A1 gene expression was similar between hirsute women, normal women, and men, suggesting it may not explain differences in hair growth among these groups.

This report describes a Danish family with autosomal dominant hypotrichosis, where affected members experienced gradual diffuse hair loss leading to near-total scalp alopecia by ages 14-21.

In this case report, an elderly woman with erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp showed complete closure of eroded areas after treatment with prednisone and topical tacrolimus, resulting in stable scarring alopecia.

This study found that scalp involvement in dermatomyositis consistently shows a nonscarring pattern with chronic telogen effluvium, featuring telangiectasia and mucin deposition as universal histologic markers.

This small study reports that a 6-group geometric classification method is more reliable for classifying human hair curl, although a digital system could further reduce errors.

In this clinical study, the use of potentiated zinc pyrithione shampoo improved scalp health and hair surface characteristics, suggesting that unhealthy scalp conditions may negatively impact pre-emergent hair's cuticle surface.

In this case report, an 18-year-old male with dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, characterized by painful nodules and hair loss, showed successful treatment outcomes with oral isotretinoin therapy.

This study observed that donor strip scar width after hair transplantation was correlated with preoperative scalp laxity and elasticity but not with glidability.

This study analyzed patch test results to identify allergens causing scalp contact dermatitis, finding nickel, cobalt, and balsam of Peru among the most common in the patient population.

In this study, researchers characterized the normal scalp hair properties in South Koreans, observing that hair density declined with age and varied across scalp sites, while hair thickness patterns remained relatively stable until later in life.

This study found that the penetration enhancer SEPA™ significantly increased both the speed and amount of hair growth from minoxidil in balding stumptail macaques compared to Rogaine®.

This study concluded that no evidence of tachyphylaxis was found in the treatment of scalp seborrheic dermatitis and dandruff using pyrithione zinc-based shampoos over a 48-week period.

This case report highlights the successful use of the Bardach modification of the curved tripod flap for repairing cicatricial pressure alopecia, offering a natural appearance and effective tension distribution in scalp reconstruction.

Iron therapy cured the boy's hair color issue.

This study describes a 4-year-old boy who exhibits a rare, synchronized pattern of hair growth and shedding, unlike the typical asynchronous pattern seen in humans.

This study found that allergic contact dermatitis of the scalp may cause telogen effluvium, leading to mild to moderate hair loss in some patients.

This study found that calcipotriol scalp solution was more effective than a coal tar-based shampoo for treating mild to moderate scalp psoriasis and showed continued efficacy with long-term use.

In this report, a 17-year-old boy received successful scalp reduction surgery for alopecia due to a thermal burn, achieving excellent cosmetic results without hypertrophic or keloidal scarring.

This review presents a case of cicatricial pemphigoid with scarring alopecia and notes its rarity but significant cosmetic distress among cicatricial pemphigoid patients in Oxford.

This study found that dupilumab treatment in alopecia areata significantly suppressed Th2-related markers and increased hair keratin levels, suggesting a potential role of Th2 cytokines in the disease's pathogenesis.

This study found that a pre-trained image processing technique accurately classified scalp conditions with 85% accuracy, suggesting potential for automated diagnosis and treatment selection.

In this study, four male patients with extensively photodamaged scalps showed a 60-90% improvement in dyspigmentation, lentigines, and keratosis after a single treatment with the fractionated 1,927 nm thulium fiber laser, with no adverse events observed.

In this study, Demodex mites were infrequently found in scalp biopsies performed for hair loss, and most cases were nonpathogenic, but a minority showed folliculitis with a strong response to metronidazole therapy.

This study suggests that surgical intervention for scalp infantile hemangiomas, often necessary due to complications like alopecia and ulceration, generally leads to good aesthetic outcomes and satisfactory hair growth.
