This study reported a predominance of adult patients, mostly women, with Trichophyton violaceum tinea capitis in southern Taiwan, noting a bimodal age distribution and questioning whether this represents a new trend.

This study used melamine formaldehyde particles to measure a pH gradient along the hair shaft, showing a significant pH decrease from the hair sheath to the external shaft.

This study found that increasing a drug's lipophilicity and adding ethanol to the donor phase can enhance its delivery to the hair follicle, although the precise transport mechanism remains unclear.

This abstract provides no results; it is a website notification about cookies and general access to JAMA content.

This case report describes a 16-year-old with ectrodactyly-ED-clefting syndrome, where scarring alopecia with follicular involvement appeared during puberty, possibly due to anatomic hair abnormalities.

This study showed that chemical and mechanical treatments significantly alter the nanoscale surface properties of hair, affecting its roughness, mechanical stiffness, adhesion, and surface potential.

Sorafenib may cause hair loss in a way similar to alopecia areata.

In this study, an infection model using rabbits was developed for dermatophytosis by inoculating macroconidia of Microsporum species, showing that direct intradermal application effectively progressed to the skin invasion phase and highlighted the correlation between severity of symptoms and duration post-inoculation.

This report describes the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic anserine folliculosis in children, highlighting its distinct skin features and suggesting tretinoin cream as an effective remedy.

This review discusses recent advances in noninvasive hair imaging technologies, such as global photography, trichoscopy, reflectance confocal microscopy, and optical coherence tomography, highlighting their potential to improve hair diagnostics and treatment monitoring, while also outlining their clinical applications and limitations.

In this study, researchers applied Yashtimadhwadi tail using shirodhara and Nasya karma treatments on sixty patients experiencing hair fall, finding that both methods produced excellent results in reducing symptoms such as hair fall, roughness, and dandruff.

Hair restoration techniques improved rapidly in 2004, leading to more natural results, with a shift to microscopic methods and diverse treatments including medical management, cloning, and surgical techniques. Laser hair removal was also mentioned.

This study found that a microneedle patch using manganese thiophosphite showed greater hair regrowth potential compared to minoxidil, even with less frequent application, for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study suggests that while low-cost USB microscopes can correctly identify certain hair shaft features, their ability to detect other crucial trichoscopic features is limited, indicating they are not reliable for routine scalp assessments without further trials.

This case report describes an 8-year-old male with tinea capitis and Trichorrhexis invaginata, who showed significant improvement after treatment with oral micronized griseofulvin.

This study suggests that nanostructured lipid carriers loaded with spironolactone might improve localized delivery to hair follicles for treating androgenic alopecia, potentially minimizing systemic side effects.

The document describes how to tell different types of non-scarring hair loss apart by looking at hair and scalp tissue under a microscope.

This case report describes a 4-year-old African American boy with tinea capitis characterized by itchy, scaly patches and hair loss, diagnosed through microscopic examination after initial treatments were only partially effective.

This article outlines methods to study the skin and its molecular traits, focusing on interpretation and techniques applicable to mouse models, including diverse assays and approaches like electron microscopy and large-scale lipid analyses.

This study highlights how examining hair histology under a microscope helps forensic analysts identify animal species by distinguishing specific microscopic features, which supports accurate reference database creation and aids crime scene investigations.

This study reported that combining vertical and horizontal sectioning in scalp biopsies allows for a more thorough examination of histological changes in various types of alopecia.

This study reports that distinct scaly dermatoses in rats can be caused by deficiencies in vitamin H, vitamin B6, or lactoflavin, each preventable or treatable through nutritional adjustments.

This study found that injecting growth factor concentrates into the scalp of five patients with androgenic alopecia led to notable improvements in hair density and quality over eight weeks, with patients reporting satisfaction and minimal side effects.

This case report describes an 8-year-old boy with impetigenic scabies on his scalp, which responded well to treatment with topical permethrin, oral antihistamines, and antibiotics.

This case report describes a successful treatment of scalp hair white piedra caused by T. ovoides with oral itraconazole and topical ketoconazole, using a combination of clinical, trichoscopic, microbiologic, and molecular methods for diagnosis.

This article reports a case of a 19-month-old boy with scalp erythematous papules and hair loss, showing no improvement with initial treatment.
