This study reported that patterns of fibrosis identified through elastin staining may help distinguish specific forms of primary cicatricial alopecia in biopsy specimens, with certain patterns suggesting particular diagnoses.

This case report highlights a 13-year-old girl with Turner syndrome who developed multiple pilomatrixoma, suggesting a possible link between the two conditions.

Automated image analysis helps diagnose and monitor alopecia areata by efficiently measuring hair follicles.

This study found trichoscopy to be a reliable non-invasive method for diagnosing various forms of alopecia, aiding in clinical management and reducing the need for biopsies in a hospital-based setting with 90 patients, including those with uncertain diagnoses.

This article discusses the uses and techniques of trichoscopy for hair and scalp disorders and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that trichoscopy is a useful tool in differentiating between alopecia areta and trichotillomania on the eyebrows based on distinct hair and follicle features.

This case study documents the co-existence of trichorhinophalangeal syndrome and loose anagen syndrome in a patient, highlighting a previously unreported association between the two conditions.

In this study, Scalp Immersion Proxigraphy (SIP) was shown to produce more accurate measurements of linear hair growth rate than crude phototrichogram techniques, suggesting SIP's suitability for clinical trials monitoring hair growth.

In this study conducted at a tertiary hospital, researchers found that female pattern hair loss was the most common cause of alopecia in adult female patients, followed by traction alopecia and alopecia areata, with traction alopecia notably common among Indian patients.

In this study, mathematical analysis suggested that a 30°-sapphire blade caused the least tissue injury during hair restoration, while a rectangular blade caused the most.

This study found trichoscopy to be a highly sensitive, non-invasive method for diagnosing tinea capitis in children, which could be valuable in resource-limited settings lacking mycological culture facilities.

This paper explores the diverse patterns and social significance of Black hair, approaching it as an art form, mathematical pattern, and ethnomathematic entity, and seeks to dispel myths while highlighting its vast possibilities.

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 study observed that specific trichoscopic features like white peripilar signs, scalp pigmentation, and focal atrichia are associated with advanced female pattern hair loss in Fitzpatrick skin type III patients.

This study observed no significant relationship between trichoscopic findings and disease severity in male or female androgenetic alopecia, despite some specific patterns correlating with different severity levels in female patients.

This article is a letter to the editor discussing positive Jacquet's sign in traction alopecia and provides no new research results.

This study observed that transverse sectioning of scalp biopsies may aid in diagnosing different types of alopecia by revealing distinct histopathological features like follicle miniaturization and specific inflammatory patterns.

In this case study, a 74-year-old woman improved her scalp hair condition by reducing chronic rubbing, leading to hair regrowth without ongoing abnormalities after behavior modification.

This report presents a 6-year-old girl with Turner syndrome, suggesting a possible association between Turner syndrome, psoriasis, alopecia areata, and trachyonychia.

This case report documents the youngest recorded instance of a linear variant of alopecia areata in a 4-year-old child, highlighting the uniqueness and rarity of this clinical presentation and noting its possible association with favorable prognosis, though further evidence is needed.

This study found that trichoscopy positively correlates with disease severity in both male and female patients with androgenetic alopecia, suggesting its usefulness in early diagnosis and assessment.

This case report describes a proliferating trichilemmal cyst that underwent malignant transformation, with specific keratins identified in the tumor but no epidermal keratin detected.

This case series found that combining ablative fractional resurfacing and acoustic pressure ultrasound with triamcinolone treatment led to complete recovery in patients with areata alopecia.

This study presents a new classification of adult human scalp hair patterns based on high-resolution photographs, which may assist hair restoration surgeons and dermatologists in determining appropriate punch size for follicular unit extraction.

This study developed a follicular automaton model that simulates human hair cycle dynamics and can replicate hair pattern changes associated with diffuse or androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, researchers found significant associations between trichoscopic features and the severity of androgenetic alopecia in Korean participants, suggesting trichoscopy as a useful tool for early detection and monitoring by identifying indicators like vellus hairs and follicular unit changes.

This study observed that indigenous South Africans with natural afro-textured hair have lower hair densities, varying shaft diameters, and distinct follicular unit patterns compared to other racial groups, with significant gender differences in some parameters, highlighting the need for tailored reference values in clinical settings.

This study observed that while hair density generally increased after PRP-based treatments for nonscarring alopecia, the extent of improvement and associated biomarker changes varied widely among individuals.

This review discusses the use of trichoscopy as a valuable diagnostic and prognostic tool for various hair and scalp disorders, reporting no new clinical results.

This study describes a distinct variant of lupus panniculitis in East Asians, characterized by reversible, linear alopecia along Blaschko’s lines on the scalp, without systemic lupus erythematosus associations.
