This abstract suggests that specific trichoscopic features like black dots, coiled hair, and trichoptilosis may help differentiate trichotillomania from patchy alopecia areata.

In this study, trichoscopy was identified as an effective tool for diagnosing trichotillomania in children, and a multidisciplinary, individualized approach along with family support was deemed essential for managing the condition and achieving sustained remission.

In this study, researchers examined two new cases of trichothiodystrophy and observed that the condition is linked to decreased synthesis of high-sulfur matrix proteins in hair.

In this study, trichostasis spinulosa was observed in 51 patients with lesions on the nose, where some follicles contained up to 86 hairs each, possibly influenced by endocrine factors and actinic rays.

In this study, hair shafts from trichothiodystrophy patients with ERCC2 mutations revealed abnormal cuticle structures and protein imbalances compared to normal hair shafts.

This systematic review concludes that trichoscopy is a reliable diagnostic tool for trichotillomania and should be incorporated into standard clinical practice for differential diagnosis.

This report highlights a case where dermoscopic observation of corkscrew hairs in a young woman led to the diagnosis of trichotillomania, emphasizing its role in distinguishing this psychiatric disorder from other forms of non-scarring alopecia and highlighting the importance of timely intervention.

This case report describes a patient with trichothiodystrophy presenting with autism, mental retardation, and seizures, characterized by distinct hair abnormalities under microscopy.

This study found that trichoscopic examination can effectively differentiate between alopecia areata and trichotillomania, as specific features such as black dots and exclamation marks favor alopecia areata while hair breaking at various lengths and several unique patterns are exclusive to trichotillomania.

This study presents a microscopic analysis of the pruritic variant of trichostasis spinulosa in two patients and reviews existing literature, reporting no new clinical results.

This review summarizes the main trichoscopic findings for diagnosing common hair and scalp disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This report describes an 8-year-old male with trichotillomania, confirmed by trichoscopy showing characteristic hair damage and patterns.

This study describes a case of generalized trichorrhexis nodosa and finds that defects in alpha-keratin chain formation and low cystine levels in hair may contribute to the condition.

This study used proteomics to identify various proteins in human hair, which may help develop novel biomarkers for hair health, disease, and aging.

This report describes a case of Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome with manifestations including multiple fibrofolliculomas, acrochordons, and renal oncocytoma.

This case report describes a patient with Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome exhibiting multiple fibrofolliculomas, acrochordons, and renal oncocytoma.

This case study reports a 58-year-old woman experiencing pressure-induced alopecia with concomitant acute telogen effluvium after severe COVID-19, suggesting a potential link between prolonged hospitalization and hair loss.

This study on Indian dromedary camel breeds investigated the KRTAP7 protein, finding all four breeds shared an identical gene sequence, with 13 phosphorylation and glycosylation sites influencing hair characteristics, alongside predicted interactions with other biosynthesis-related proteins.

In this study, a 3-month treatment with a 2940 nm Er:YAG laser, combined with conventional therapy, effectively reduced microfibrosis around hair follicles and increased hair growth in the anagen stage among 85 men with androgenetic alopecia.

UV-enhanced trichoscopy helps diagnose hair shaft disorders like pili annulati.

This case study identified the condition as Monilethrix in a 17-year-old female, characterized by a beaded hair appearance and linked to a genetic cause.

This article reviews various hair abnormalities observable through trichoscopy in conditions like monilethrix, trichorrhexis nodosa, and ectodermal dysplasias, with no new clinical findings reported.

Trichoscopy is effective in diagnosing trichotillomania by showing specific hair patterns.

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.

This case report identifies an association between trichothiodystrophy and a urologic malformation with primary hypercalciuria, adding to the spectrum of TTD-related abnormalities.

This report presents a rare case of trichoadenoma occurring in the vulva, adding to the limited instances documented in medical literature.

This study found that most hair shaft abnormalities can be accurately diagnosed using a handheld dermoscope in a clinical setting.

This Viewpoint discusses the utility of dermoscope in routine practice and how familiarity with dynamic vs static trichoscopy may address its limitations, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This case study reports that selenium shampoo, bacterial infection with trichomycosis axillaris, and possibly strongyloides larvae may have contributed to acquired hair shaft abnormalities resembling trichorrhexis nodosa in two patients.
