This letter discusses the use of serial trichoscopy versus a modified hair pull test for monitoring localized alopecia areata but reports no new clinical results.

Panoramic Trichoscopy is a new, better way to assess widespread hair loss.

This study found that among women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, 100% showed dermoscopic elements suggestive of the condition, with perifollicular erythema often indicating disease activity.

UV-enhanced trichoscopy helps diagnose hair shaft disorders like pili annulati.

This study found that ultraviolet-induced fluorescence trichoscopy can help differentiate between scarring and non-scarring alopecia and between psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis.

This study found that diffuse and pseudo-fringe sign patterns are common in Asian patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, and that treatments combining antiandrogens or antimalarials with topical therapy are effective.

In this case series, the authors reported effective hair regrowth and resolution of symptoms in three pediatric patients with folliculitis decalvans following treatment with a combination of antibiotics, retinoids, dapsone, and corticosteroids.

This study observed that over 60 days, Amalaki Churna, when administered to 30 patients with non-cicatricial hair fall, significantly reduced hair fall and improved hair tensile strength without adverse effects, suggesting beneficial Rasayana and Keshya properties.

In this study, Amalaki Churna, given at a dose of 3g twice daily, significantly reduced hair fall and improved hair strength in patients with non-cicatricial hair loss over 60 days, without reported adverse effects.

This article reviews the epidemiology, clinical evaluation, and pathogenesis of alopecia areata and highlights recent advancements, but it does not report new clinical findings.

This review discusses the dermoscopic features of common hair and scalp disorders and reports no new clinical results, aiming to assist dermatologists in diagnosing conditions like tinea capitis and alopecia areata.

This study found that trichoscopy criteria can distinguish female androgenic alopecia from chronic telogen effluvium, with specific features achieving 98% diagnostic specificity.

This article reviews recent advancements in understanding and treating androgenetic alopecia, focusing on new genetic insights, stem cell roles, and diagnostic tools, without reporting new clinical results.

This article discusses the history taking and clinical examination process for diagnosing alopecia and outlines a diagnostic approach, noting that it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses recent advances in trichoscopy for differentiating types of alopecia and presents a systematic approach for using its diagnostic findings, but reports no new clinical results.

This paper discusses the use of dermatoscopy as a fast, noninvasive technique for diagnosing hair shaft disorders and reports no new results; the authors highlight its advantages over traditional microscopy methods.

This review discusses the potential causes and treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia but reports no new clinical findings, highlighting the need for further research to understand its pathogenesis and develop validated treatments.

In this study of 20 patients with erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp, using trichoscopy improved diagnosis, and treatments with high-potency steroids or topical tacrolimus effectively reduced inflammatory signs, suggesting these as first-line treatments.

This study suggests that trichoscopic features, such as perifollicular erythema and cicatricial white patches, are independently associated with pruritus and the severity of frontal fibrosing alopecia.

This article discusses methods for diagnosing and managing diffuse hair loss and reports no new results; the authors emphasize systematic evaluation and the importance of psychological support.

This study found that a topical solution combining 0.25% finasteride with 3% minoxidil significantly improved hair growth, as measured by hair density, diameter, and global assessment, in men with androgenetic alopecia, compared to 3% minoxidil alone, over 24 weeks without systemic adverse effects reported.

This case report indicates that trichoscopy may significantly improve the diagnosis of Netherton syndrome by noninvasively identifying typical hair abnormalities without the need to pull hair.
