In this study, researchers evaluated trichoscopy in diagnosing non-scarring alopecia and found diagnostic value in observing diverse hair diameters in androgenetic alopecia, black dots and broken hairs in alopecia areata, and empty follicles in telogen effluvium, supporting trichoscopy's utility in differentiating alopecia types.

This study found that the occipital scalp is significantly involved in female pattern hair loss, with some patients showing clinically visible alopecia.

This article reviews various self-aggressive hair disorders such as trichotillomania and emphasizes the psychiatric aspects of these conditions, but reports no new clinical findings.

Hair transplantation successfully treated hair loss in a patient with Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome.

This study observed that most patients with traction alopecia showed improved or stabilized hair loss with therapeutic counseling and adjunctive treatments, but follow-up was often inconsistent, highlighting the need for better awareness and management.

This study found that in patients with alopecia areata, trichoscopy was a valuable tool for monitoring disease activity, severity, and therapeutic response, showing changes in trichoscopic markers that preceded improvements observed in the hair pull test.

Dermatoscopy helps track scar changes and guide treatment.

This retrospective study reviewed 31 years of follicular unit transplantation data for female pattern hair loss, finding that the surgery is effective with low complication rates and avoids the need to shave recipient sites.

This study found that both intralesional triamcinolone acetonide and triamcinolone hexacetonide promote continuous hair growth in alopecia areata, with effects lasting at least 9 months after a single injection.

This study reviewed the usefulness of trichoscopy in diagnosing and monitoring alopecia areata, noting that the technique identifies specific hair features like yellow and black dots, which are linked to the disease's chronic nature and treatment response.

This study found that when choosing between hair transplant and scalp micropigmentation for female pattern hair loss, scalp micropigmentation is preferred if hair density is at least 104.6 hairs/cm².

This case series found that low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation may benefit some patients with trichotillomania, although one of five patients experienced worsening symptoms after treatment.

This study suggests that for single biopsy specimens, transverse sections may be preferable for diagnosing noncicatricial alopecia, while vertical sections may be better for suspected lichen planopilaris.

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 suggests that corkscrew hair could serve as a new diagnostic marker for tinea capitis and that dermoscopy might help diagnose atypical cases swiftly.

This case report describes a young man with rapidly progressive cicatricial alopecia that shows features overlapping several other types, suggesting these conditions may exist on a spectrum.

This study observed a significant reduction in the number of hair follicles with a high proportion in catagen or telogen phase, along with visible vertical columns of connective tissue in the histopathologic examination.

This study found that Caucasian female hair is denser than Asian female hair in the occipital region regardless of treatment but thinner in diameter in both the frontal and occipital regions.

In this case report, trichoscopy was highlighted as a vital diagnostic tool for pediatric alopecia areata, showing significant hair regrowth in a 4-year-old girl with toxoplasma-related alopecia after six weeks of therapy, emphasizing its role in tracking therapeutic progress.

This review describes distinct trichoscopic findings for various alopecias in individuals with skin of color, but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that innervation of the mystacial pad in rats by fine-caliber axons is more extensive and complex than previously described, with distinct differences in labeling patterns depending on the tracer and survival time.

In this study of folliculitis decalvans, researchers found that compound follicular structures in scalp biopsies are primarily composed of terminal anagen follicles, surrounded by fibrosis and inflammatory cell infiltrate, which could enhance understanding of this condition.

This article presents an algorithmic approach to diagnosing, staging, and treating pattern hair loss and discusses hair transplant decision-making, without reporting new clinical results.

This study examined trichoscopic findings in androgenetic alopecia, reporting that hair diameter variability, vellus hairs, and the peripilar sign are valuable indicators for diagnosing this condition.

In this study, researchers observed that trichocytic and epithelial cytokeratins have distinct expression patterns within various human and bovine hair follicle cells, contributing to understanding hair follicle development and growth.

This study reported that platelet-rich plasma injections led to only temporary improvement in vellus hair characteristics in temporal triangular alopecia, suggesting it may not be an effective long-term treatment.

This study measured the force required to pluck anagen and telogen hair from volunteers, suggesting that trichotillometry could assess hair strength in alopecia patients and evaluate treatment efficacy.
