This study found that in Japanese, German, and American females, changes in hair lipid patterns with age may reflect alterations in sebum excretion and affect hair texture.

This study identified a new subtype of lichen planopilaris that mimics androgenetic alopecia, selectively affecting vellus hair follicles and presenting unique histopathological features.

This study in Hexi cashmere goats found that secondary follicle activity increases with time, and Hoxc13 expression varies significantly across different growth stages, suggesting a role in follicle activity.

This study identified acute localized telogen effluvium as a histopathologic mechanism for temporal hair loss following rhytidectomy.

This study found poor agreement among dermatopathologists in identifying and grading fibrosis in traction alopecia, suggesting the need for better diagnostic methods for early fibrosis detection.

This letter argues that cicatricial pattern hair loss likely represents end-stage androgenetic alopecia and not a variant of lichen planopilaris, as previously suggested.

In this study, the bending stiffness of human hair was linked to the varying proportions of para-like versus ortho-like cortical cells within the hair fiber.

This report describes a case of temporary hair loss due to telogen effluvium after rhytidectomy, suggesting dermatologic surgeons consider preventive measures to minimize trauma and tension on hair follicles during surgery.

This report describes a 20-year-old Chinese man with a rare combination of congenital compound and blue melanocytic nevus associated with alopecia areata.

This study found that the progression of fetal skin development, marked by key features like the appearance of hair follicles and eccrine sweat glands, can help determine fetal age and predict congenital skin diseases.

This study found that matrix cells from normal hair follicles primarily had a 2C DNA content, while those in androgenetic alopecia showed a significant increase in cells with a higher DNA content.

In this study, researchers observed that Melan A, a melanocytic marker, was significantly expressed in hair follicles of alopecia areata patients and correlated with immune infiltrates, suggesting melanocytes might contribute to the autoimmune response in this condition.

Hair disorders need a holistic approach, including medical, cosmetic, and psychological support.

This study identified acute localized telogen effluvium as a potential cause of temporal hair loss following rhytidectomy.

This study found that hair density is significantly lower in African Americans compared to whites, which may affect the evaluation and diagnosis of scalp biopsy specimens in this population.

In this study, researchers found a positive correlation between trichoscopic features and histomorphological findings, supporting trichoscopy as a valuable tool for assessing androgenetic alopecia severity and monitoring treatment outcomes.

This study found that peripilar signs on the scalp are linked to perifollicular lymphocytic infiltrates in early androgenetic alopecia, detectable even in areas with high hair density.

Minoxidil can help grow hair and make hair follicles bigger, but it can also cause side effects.

This article illustrates various hair shaft defects and suggests that dermatologists can diagnose most of them using light microscopy and polarization without needing advanced imaging techniques.

This study found that using an oral contraceptive with bicalutamide significantly reduced hirsutism in women with PCOS compared to an oral contraceptive alone, although it increased total cholesterol and LDL levels.

This case report describes a 78-year-old farmer with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis who developed cutaneous Alternaria alternata infections, which improved with reduced prednisolone and itraconazole treatment, with no recurrence after two years.

This study found that SK2 channels in sensory terminals of rat muscle spindles and hair follicles may play a crucial role in modulating mechanosensory transduction by influencing receptor potentials through Ca2+-activated K+ currents.

This review discusses the current knowledge on using special and immunohistochemical stains for diagnosing hair disorders, concluding that no stains are recommended for routine use in hair pathology.

Polarized microscopy is a quick and free method to correctly identify types of hair loss.

This article reviews structured management strategies for diagnosing and treating hair and scalp disorders, offering clinical guidelines and emphasizing the importance of psychosomatic care and patient-therapist communication.

This review discusses the development of surgical hair restoration techniques and highlights the potential of hair follicle cell cloning to address current limitations.

This study describes a newly observed "inflammatory vellus involvement" pattern in early frontal fibrosing alopecia, which may lead to misdiagnosis due to the absence of typical histological features.

This study suggests that an in ovo injection of CHIR-99021 promoted feather growth and follicle development in goose embryos by activating the Wnt signaling pathway.

This article reviews the use of micrografts and minigrafts for hair restoration in various conditions, enhancing aesthetic outcomes, but it does not provide new clinical findings.

This study found that male pattern hair loss worsened significantly after stopping finasteride, revealing a "rebound effect" where terminal hair transformed into miniaturized hair over 30 months off the drug.
