This study concluded that including intermediate hairs or using relative shaft diameter methods can significantly improve the sensitivity of trichograms in diagnosing female androgenetic alopecia, aligning better with histopathology results.

In this study, researchers reported three cases of alopecia areata patients experiencing a rare targetoid pattern of hair regrowth, a phenomenon originally described in 1988.

This review provides a synopsis of 53 cases of temporal triangular alopecia, noting its frequent detection in early childhood and potential association with congenital diseases, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the use of trichoscopy for diagnosing mimickers of patterned hair loss and assessing donor sites before hair transplant surgery, and reports no new clinical results.

This study introduced a non-invasive, three-step diagnostic algorithm for alopecia that combines clinical and trichoscopic features to accurately identify alopecia subtypes, potentially reducing reliance on invasive histopathology.

This review covers the recent advances in understanding how Turing models may explain various morphogenetic processes, but it reports no new experimental findings.

This case report identifies a 23-year-old man with congenital triangular alopecia, a non-scarring alopecia characterized by preserved follicles and vellus hair, for which unnecessary interventions should be avoided.

This case report highlights the clinical and trichoscopic diagnosis of congenital triangular alopecia in a 9-month-old boy and notes the condition's typical unresponsiveness to traditional treatments.

In this study, researchers found that adults with alopecia areata exhibited trichoscopic features of empty follicular openings and tulip hair, while children showed more honeycomb pigment patterns and pohlpinkus constriction on their scalp lesions.

This article describes a case in which a gymnast's hair loss pattern improved after she stopped using the balance beam, suggesting the hair loss may have been due to traction from her gymnastics routine.

This study found that trichoscopy can effectively differentiate female pattern hair loss from chronic telogen effluvium based on specific features like hair shaft diameter variability and density differences, aiding in targeted treatment planning.

This review covers current knowledge of tricoscopy's applications in diagnosing and monitoring scalp and hair disorders but presents no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers developed an innovative training model using oranges to practice designing the scalp's parietal whorl for hair transplantation. They reported that a density of 40-50 follicular units per cm² achieved better results, aiding surgeons in improving their technique.

This case report documents a rare instance of body-focused repetitive behavior in a 37-year-old male physician who compulsively pulled hair from his thighs due to exam stress, highlighting the variability in presentation and demographics of such disorders and the potential for psychiatric comorbidity.

This article reports a case of linear lichen planus developing along the lines of Blaschko during intramuscular triamcinolone acetonide therapy for alopecia areata multiplex.

In this study, researchers evaluated trichoscopic features in 500 Egyptian patients with patchy hair loss and found specific patterns, such as perifollicular scale with 90% sensitivity and 99.5% specificity, which effectively aid in diagnosing primary cicatricial alopecias.

This report presents a case of alopecia areata manifesting in a linear pattern, deviating from the typical presentation of sharply demarcated round patches.

Mammalian hair scales change from smooth to wavy due to friction.

This article discusses trichotillomania and trichoteiromania, focusing on their clinical presentation, main trichoscopic features, and similarities in hair loss patterns but reports no new research findings.

This study found that trichoscopy can be a helpful, noninvasive tool for identifying specific patterns that correlate with the clinical activity and severity of alopecia areata, enhancing its diagnosis and monitoring.

This article mentions that the slot correction technique by Dr. Patrick Frechet has been a valuable tool in the author's 100% hair restoration surgery practice but does not provide new clinical results.

CTA is often mistaken for AA but doesn't respond to steroids and may require hair transplantation.

This commentary discusses the rarity of "triangular alopecia" in hair restoration surgery and highlights the lack of mention in professional settings, without providing new clinical data.

This article describes an improved trichophytic closure technique for hair restoration surgery, achieving nearly invisible donor scars in over 95% of patients, but emphasizes tailoring the method to individual patient characteristics.

This report on a 37-year-old patient found that trichorhinophalangeal syndrome type I is associated with hair abnormalities, including fine and brittle hair with altered biomechanical properties, but no treatment exists for the hair defects.

This study investigated the hair of German shepherd dogs, revealing variations in color, shape, and band patterns across different body regions, while all hair types shared similar anatomical structures such as continuous, vacuolated medullas and cuticular scales with smooth or rippled margins.

The authors concluded that trichoscopy is a valuable noninvasive tool for diagnosing and monitoring nonscarring alopecia, aiding in the identification of new hair signs in difficult cases.

This study observed that the keratinization pattern of trichilemmal cysts in two Japanese women may originate from the proliferation of the outer root sheath in the follicular isthmus of anagen hairs.

This review discusses fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution and highlights diagnostic features, but reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the value of trichoscopy and histology in diagnosis.
