This case series reports three novel and atypical morphological patterns of alopecia areata, termed the central sparing, paw, and punctate patterns, highlighting their importance for dermatologists in improving diagnosis and management of the condition.

This study found that non-balding dermal papilla cells emphasized extracellular matrix organization and reduced inflammation when cultured in 3D or with adipose-derived stem cells, unlike balding cells which maintained inflammatory pathways.

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 reviews various topics discussed at a workshop on hair disorders, focusing on hair biology, diagnosis, and challenges in therapy evaluation, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study found that specific genetic markers near the androgen receptor gene are significantly more common in men with male pattern baldness, suggesting a genetic component in its development.

This study found that trichoscopy is a valuable tool for diagnosing various hair disorders by identifying specific trichoscopic patterns, such as hair diameter diversity in androgenetic alopecia and exclamatory marks in alopecia areata.

This abstract presents a clinical case of a woman with traction alopecia and discusses trichoscopic findings without reporting any new research results.

This study found that horizontal sections of scalp biopsies in patients with Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia often reveal follicular miniaturization, inflammation, and scarring, which can guide personalized treatment.

This review discusses the diagnostic features of androgenetic alopecia through trichoscopy and reports no clinical results; it emphasizes hair shaft variability and yellow dots as key indicators.

This article reports three cases of African American men with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, highlighting the need to consider this diagnosis for male patients with vertex hair loss and scalp symptoms.

This case report describes a four-month-old infant with atypical alopecia areata following a cultural head-shaving ritual, who showed improvement with topical triamcinolone treatment, though not full symptom resolution, highlighting the rarity and complexity of managing AA in infants.

An infant with complete hair loss was diagnosed with a genetic disorder affecting hair growth.

In this study, researchers described cases of traction alopecia in young Sikh boys due to hair tying practices, emphasizing the importance of early intervention and education to prevent progression and support hair regrowth, using strategies like changing hair tying methods and topical treatments when appropriate.

This case report describes a woman with an unusual presentation of tinea capitis, noting diagnostic challenges as initial examinations found no mycelium or spores.

This report discusses the accurate diagnosis of atrichia with papular lesions, emphasizing its distinction from alopecia universalis to prevent unnecessary steroid treatment, and presents a case matching APL diagnostic criteria.

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.

In this study, a thoroughbred mare exhibited a unique case of alopecia areata with lymphocytic infiltration at both the bulbar and isthmic levels of hair follicles.

This article discusses the lack of information on central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia's manifestations in Black men and reports no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize the need for further study in this population.

This study examines the depiction of a soldier with an atypical hairstyle resembling alopecia in an Isenmann painting, possibly reflecting medical conditions like tinea capitis or alopecia areata to emphasize the soldier's moral degradation, though artists historically mixed medical conditions for stylistic purposes.
