This review discusses various rare syndromes associated with ichthyosis and emphasizes the importance of understanding their molecular genetics and mechanisms for developing effective treatments and genetic counseling, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses idiopathic hirsutism, potential underlying mechanisms, and various therapeutic approaches without providing new clinical results, and emphasizes the need for further research on well-defined patient groups.

This article reviews fetal scalp hair formation and related disorders but reports no new research results.

This review provides a framework for diagnosing acquired scalp alopecias and discusses both non-scarring and scarring types, but reports no new clinical results.

This review identifies genetic mutations associated with congenital hair loss disorders in Japanese populations, particularly highlighting common LIPH gene mutations linked to woolly hair/hypotrichosis, and reports no new clinical results.

This review highlights that in children, hair loss can be attributed to diverse conditions like alopecia areata and tinea capitis, and stresses the importance of a holistic approach to diagnosis and management, including psychosocial support due to limited effective treatments.

This case report describes the youngest known patient with viral-associated trichodysplasia of immunosuppression, where systemic valganciclovir therapy improved facial papule eruptions following cardiac transplantation.

This review discusses the diagnostic criteria and guidelines for managing loose anagen syndrome and differentiating it from non-scarring alopecias, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews various hair abnormalities observable through trichoscopy in conditions like monilethrix, trichorrhexis nodosa, and ectodermal dysplasias, with no new clinical findings reported.

This abstract discusses the uncertain role of the vascular system in hair loss and highlights the unexplained aspects of various types of alopecias; it reports no new research findings.

This study reported that the most common hair loss disorder among children in south-east Nigeria was tinea capitis, and its clinical course was influenced by parental attitudes towards treatment.

In this study, topical minoxidil was found to be an effective, safe, and easy treatment for individuals with alopecia areata affecting 25–99% of the scalp, but less effective for total scalp hair loss.

This review examines hair shaft disorders, reporting limited evidence for treatments like minoxidil and oral retinoids, and emphasizes gentle hair care and genetic counseling for managing congenital cases.

This study is the first to describe a mixed pattern of essential syphilitic alopecia using trichoscopy, identifying features like tapered bended hairs and perifollicular hyperkeratosis in a patient without secondary syphilis symptoms.

This study describes a newly recognized skin reaction associated with dasatinib, nilotinib, and ponatinib, marked by a lichenoid exanthem with severe pruritus that may necessitate discontinuation of therapy.

This case report describes a family with autosomal dominant transmission of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans, with observed treatment refractoriness in multiple topical and systemic therapies.

This study observed various patterns of permanent alopecia in breast cancer patients treated with taxanes and adjuvant hormonal chemotherapy, hypothesizing disruptions in hair follicle cycles due to chemoinflammatory and hormonal factors.

This study reviewed Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome and found it consistently associated with hypogonadism, decreased IGF1, and frontotemporal alopecia, with additional symptoms like intellectual disabilities and diabetes in some patients.

This study found that in Jordanian children, tinea capitis, alopecia areata, and telogen effluvium were the most common causes of hair loss, with nutritional deficiencies such as iron and zinc deficiency also noted as significant factors.

This review discusses hair transplant techniques for female pattern hair loss and reports no new clinical results; it highlights the benefits of transplants combined with various treatments for improved hair density and styling options.

Most hair loss in children is caused by a few common conditions, and it's important to diagnose these properly and support the child's mental health.

This review presents an objective analysis of female androgenetic alopecia, discussing clinical and dermoscopic examination approaches but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that combined topical, intralesional, and oral corticosteroids led to significant hair regrowth in some patients with alopecia totalis or universalis, allowing eventual cessation of oral corticosteroids in several cases.

This review discusses major advances in understanding inherited hair diseases through genetic research and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the potential for new preventive and therapeutic tools.

This review discusses the role of cholesterol homeostasis in hair follicle biology and its potential connections to various hair disorders, but it reports no new findings.

This review discusses common psychodermatologic conditions and provides practical diagnostic and therapeutic recommendations but reports no new results; the authors emphasize the challenge of treating patients who lack insight into their psychiatric symptoms.
