This study found that dermoscopy showed distinctive patterns for different types of alopecia, supporting its clinical usefulness for diagnosing diseases with small round or oval hairless patches on the scalp.

In this study, researchers identified elongated corkscrew hairs as a new trichoscopic pattern in immunosuppressed adults with chronic endothrix tinea capitis, which may help in earlier diagnosis and targeted mycological investigation.

In this study, researchers reported three cases of alopecia areata patients experiencing a rare targetoid pattern of hair regrowth, a phenomenon originally described in 1988.

This article reviews the use of dermoscopy in distinguishing temporal triangular alopecia from alopecia areata, emphasizing its role in avoiding invasive diagnostics and ineffective treatments; it reports no new clinical findings.

This retrospective study of 1604 alopecia areata cases reported 13 instances of a potentially new hair regrowth pattern, termed the "androgenetic-like pattern".

Tufted folliculitis is common in patients with folliculitis decalvans.

This case report describes a 3-year-old boy diagnosed with temporal triangular alopecia, emphasizing the importance of clinical and dermoscopic examination for correct diagnosis due to the condition's rarity and risk of misdiagnosis.

This report highlights a case where dermoscopic observation of corkscrew hairs in a young woman led to the diagnosis of trichotillomania, emphasizing its role in distinguishing this psychiatric disorder from other forms of non-scarring alopecia and highlighting the importance of timely intervention.

This review discusses the evolution of the term “hot comb alopecia” to central cicatricial centrifugal alopecia (CCCA) and highlights the ongoing debate over hairstyling practices' role in its pathology, without offering new clinical results.

This paper highlights a case where a 2-year-old boy with temporal triangular alopecia was initially misdiagnosed with alopecia areata, emphasizing the importance of dermoscopy for accurate early diagnosis to avoid unnecessary treatments.

In this case report, a 5-year-old boy presented with an itchy patch of hair loss in the frontotemporal region, with trichoscopy revealing specific hair shaft features, such as black dots and corkscrew hairs.

In this study, researchers observed that the combination of hair progenitors and their micro-niche changes every three days in mouse zigzag hair, and disruptions in specific genes affected this rhythm, highlighting the importance of this periodic change for normal hair morphology.

This study identified several specific trichoscopic features of trichotillomania, with trichoptilosis, V hair, and hair powder being the most frequent findings.

This article highlights a specific, yet largely unrecognized, sign that aids in diagnosing androgenetic alopecia in women, emphasizing its practical application in clinical settings.

This article reviews the generation of complex integument patterns through genetic, chemical, and environmental influences, with applications in tissue engineering, but reports no new experimental results.

This study identified two distinct trichoscopic patterns in the mid-frontal scalp of patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia who also display clinical features of androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that dermoscopy can identify distinctive features in canine pattern alopecia, such as hair shaft thinning and pigmentation patterns, which may aid in diagnosing this and potentially other skin disorders.

This report documented a successful and sustained hair restoration surgery using follicular unit transplantation for temporal triangular alopecia, lasting over six years.

This case report highlights the clinical and trichoscopic diagnosis of congenital triangular alopecia in a 9-month-old boy and notes the condition's typical unresponsiveness to traditional treatments.

Hair shaft changes may be linked to CCCA, but their role is unclear.

This study suggests that observing the acute telogen effluvium triad—frontal fringe, temporal recess, and occipital fringe—can aid in diagnosing telogen effluvium during resolution phases, despite challenges like negative pull tests.

This study explored a mechanism for making Turing pattern formations more predictable and robust by isolating pattern modes to prevent their sensitivity to initial conditions, which can lead to different outcomes from minor initial changes.

This review discusses fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution and highlights diagnostic features, but reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the value of trichoscopy and histology in diagnosis.

This case report describes the first known instances of male androgenetic alopecia with trichoteiromania, suggesting self-induced hair loss can occur alongside patterned miniaturization of hair.

In this study, researchers analyzed hair from different regions of Malvi cattle and found significant variations in color, shape, and band pattern, although the medullary index remained consistent between 0.50 and 0.60 across the samples.

The man has Temporal Triangular Alopecia, a stable, non-scarring hair loss condition best treated with hair transplantation.

Trichoscopy is effective in diagnosing trichotillomania by showing specific hair patterns.
