This study reported that two male patients with diffuse unpatterned alopecia exhibited donor-area involvement in both the vertex and occiput, challenging the assumption of occipital stability for hair transplantation, and showed partial improvement following treatment with oral finasteride and topical minoxidil.

In this case report, a 38-year-old woman with lifelong monilethrix and progressive frontal scalp thinning associated with androgenetic alopecia highlights the diagnostic and management challenges when these hair conditions coexist.

In this case study, a 38-year-old woman with monilethrix, a hair shaft disorder causing hair fragility, was also diagnosed with androgenetic alopecia, leading the authors to emphasize the complexity in diagnosing and managing such combined hair conditions.

In this case report, a 38-year-old woman with monilethrix, a hair shaft disorder, was found to have both hair fragility and androgenetic alopecia, highlighting the diagnostic and management challenges posed by coexisting hair conditions.

This review explores recent insights into the causes, clinical features, diagnosis, and comprehensive treatments of female-pattern hair loss, emphasizing the importance of trichoscopy and highlighting approaches like nutritional correction and various therapies including low-intensity lasers and PRP.

This study reviews female hair loss conditions with a focus on diagnosis and treatment. It highlights female pattern hair loss as the most common form and emphasizes the need for personalized therapy, including topical minoxidil and, when appropriate, antiandrogen treatments.

Hair diameter diversity could improve androgenetic alopecia assessment and treatment planning.

This chapter provides a comprehensive review of androgenetic alopecia, covering its key physiological mechanisms, diagnostic methods, and a variety of treatment options ranging from topical therapies to aesthetic and regenerative procedures, emphasizing recent advances observed in dermatological practice.

This study observed an unexpected case where a 44-year-old woman developed linear scalp pigmentation, resembling a tattoo, after undergoing a microneedling procedure followed by hair dyeing two days later, emphasizing the need to advise patients on avoiding hair dye application soon after such treatments.

This study reviewed treatments and findings related to male androgenetic alopecia, noting that topical minoxidil and oral finasteride are effective for slowing hair loss, while newer interventions like PRP and microneedling show promise.

This review discusses the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of male androgenetic alopecia, noting that combination treatments, including FDA-approved and emerging therapies, may improve outcomes without added side effects.

This study reported that trichoscopy can identify specific hair shaft abnormalities linked to increased serological activity, highlighting its use as a valuable non-invasive diagnostic tool in pediatric dermatology for neonates with ECS.

This consensus provides a framework for standardized diagnosis and treatment of alopecia areata in the Asia Pacific region, recommending specific therapies based on age and disease severity.

This study observed that white dots, focal atrichia, and honeycomb pigmentation on the scalp were significantly associated with the severity of androgenetic alopecia in men under forty.

This review highlights advances in understanding alopecia areata as a systemic disease involving genetic, immune, and environmental factors, noting new treatments like Janus kinase inhibitors but acknowledging challenges in long-term safety and accessibility.

This case report highlights that alopecia areata can mimic syphilitic alopecia in patients with recent or active syphilis, emphasizing the importance of trichoscopy in accurately diagnosing alopecia types and preventing misdiagnosis.

This review discusses advancements in understanding the genetic and stem cell involvement in androgenetic alopecia, evaluates current treatments, and emphasizes the need for evidence-based guidelines but presents no new clinical results.

This review discusses recent advances in the understanding of androgenetic alopecia, focusing on genetic factors and new diagnostic and treatment approaches, but it does not provide new clinical results.

In this case study, trichoscopy was found to be a valuable non-invasive tool for diagnosing dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, enabling early detection and intervention to prevent disease progression and reduce the need for invasive procedures.

This review discusses the efficacy, safety, and practical aspects of using Janus kinase inhibitors—baricitinib, ritlecitinib, and deuruxolitinib—as treatments for severe alopecia areata in an advanced practice provider context, without reporting specific study results.

This study observed that 2.5% of patients with mycosis fungoides or Szary syndrome experienced alopecia, predominantly within skin lesions, with scalp metastases from other cancers also potentially causing hair loss, highlighting the diagnostic value of trichoscopy in differentiating alopecia types.

This study reports two cases where acquired perforating dermatosis was localized to the scalp and coincided with acute diffuse alopecia, suggesting perifollicular inflammation may link the two conditions.

This review discusses methods to better identify unsafe donor areas in patients with diffuse unpatterned alopecia, emphasizing non-surgical management when specific diagnostic criteria are met, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that treatment with human foreskin fibroblast conditioned medium improved both objective measures like hair density and subjective satisfaction in patients with androgenetic alopecia.

In this hospital-based cross-sectional study, researchers found that alopecia is more prevalent in younger patients, with alopecia areata and lichen planopilaris being the most common types among noncicatricial and cicatricial cases, respectively; additionally, thyroid abnormalities were frequently associated with both types of alopecia.

In this case report, a 2-month-old girl with tinea capitis showed significant improvement after treatment with oral griseofulvin and topical ketoconazole. The study emphasizes the importance of layered diagnostics and systemic therapy for effective management of this fungal scalp infection in infants.

This study reported that a 29-year-old woman with telogen effluvium experienced improved hair growth and reduced hair loss through 12 sessions of plum blossom acupuncture combined with electroacupuncture, as evidenced by new hair growth, improved hair-pull test results, and decreased telogen phase hair percentage.

This study compared the diagnostic effectiveness of Folliscope and Trichoscope in 100 men with androgenetic alopecia, concluding that using both methods enhances diagnostic accuracy by providing complementary insights—Trichoscope highlights patterns while Folliscope offers objective measurements.

Hair shaft disorders often indicate genetic or systemic issues and are managed by minimizing damage.

In this study, trichoscopy was found to enhance the early assessment of minoxidil therapy in males with pattern hair loss, leading to improved satisfaction and treatment compliance by revealing positive changes visible within one month.
