This review discusses trichotillomania, including its diagnosis and management, and emphasizes the importance of a psychiatry-dermatology liaison alongside behavioral therapy and pharmacological options.

This study found that transgenic mice expressing a mutant E1a oncoprotein in their skin had disturbed hair follicle maturation but did not show increased tumor development or proliferation.

This case report describes a 45-year-old woman with a trichoadenoma of the eyelid, emphasizing the importance of histopathological examination for accurately diagnosing excised eyelid lesions.

This systematic review evaluated 60 studies on trichoscopy in hair and scalp disorders, revealing gaps in accounting for variables like disease stage or hair texture, and underscoring a need for more comprehensive analyses to fully understand trichoscopic patterns.

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 review discusses the clinical features of trichotillomania and the challenges in its diagnosis and treatment, reporting no new clinical findings while highlighting the need for specialized therapy and better therapeutic options.

This article illustrates various hair shaft defects and suggests that dermatologists can diagnose most of them using light microscopy and polarization without needing advanced imaging techniques.

This study found that the cross-section trichometer is a promising tool for measuring hair mass index with high reproducibility, suggesting potential clinical and research applications.

This study identified the c.1204G to A (p.E402K) mutation in the hHB6 gene as a cause of monilethrix in a Chinese family, highlighting the gene's role in the condition.

This study suggests that pilomatrixomas' maturation towards areas of shadow cells is linked to a gradual loss of differentiation-specific hair keratins, supporting a hair matrix origin for the tumor.

This article discusses the role of trichology in treating hair and scalp conditions by addressing underlying body systems and reports no new clinical findings.

This review examines psychosomatic hair diseases, discussing their classification, implications, and the need for tailored psychosomatic therapy, without reporting new clinical results.

This retrospective study conducted at two centers in west Mexico identified distinctive trichoscopic features in pediatric androgenetic alopecia, with 70% of patients being male and most showing vitamin D deficiency; topical minoxidil was effective and well-tolerated as a treatment.

This review discusses the diagnostic and treatment challenges of trichotillomania and emphasizes the need for better-designed studies to optimize treatment approaches.

This study presents additional data suggesting that the absence of nerve endings in certain segments of human hair follicles influences the asymmetrical distribution of electrical charges, as indicated by no precipitation of Potassium Ferricyanide crystals.

This study reports that transgene insertion in homozygous transgenic mice causes irreversible hair loss and impaired immune function, linked to interruption of the hairless locus on Chromosome 14.

This study identified 11 genes associated with non-syndromic hereditary hypotrichosis in a Chinese cohort and proposed a preliminary framework for phenotype-driven candidate-gene prioritization to aid clinical evaluation.

Trauma can cause fat inflammation and abnormal hair growth.

This study described two cases of trichoblastomas in the tactile hair skin of aged house musk shrews, highlighting that their histological structure differs from that in humans and other animals.

This study found that transient activation of c-Myc in transgenic mice stimulates keratinocyte proliferation and sebocyte differentiation, affecting normal epidermal and hair follicle development.

This report describes a rare case of Trichostasis Spinulosa on the heel, an uncommon location for this type of lesion.

This case report diagnosed a 4-year-old girl with trichotillomania after observation of her twirling and pulling her hair at the affected site.

This study associated ivory-colored areas observed through trichoscopy with steroid deposits in the dermis among patients with steroid-induced atrophy on the scalp.

This study observed that the thinning and structural abnormalities in monilethrix-affected hair occur at the internodes due to possible periodic dysfunction of the hair matrix, particularly in the cortex.

In this case report, a biopsy was essential for diagnosing congenital alopecia areata despite suggestive clinical and trichoscopic evidence, as no non-invasive reliable diagnostic methods currently exist, highlighting the continued importance of this invasive procedure.

This study describes trichilemmal keratinization as a distinct process of hair follicle keratinization that occurs in specific areas of the outer root sheath, illustrated using electron microscopy on dog hair.

This case report presents a 14-year-old girl with both type I diabetes and monilethrix, detailing her symptoms and treatment with topical minoxidil, while exploring a possible genetic link between the conditions.

This study observed that the hair loss in homozygous rhino mice is associated with widening of the hair canal due to hyperkeratosis, leading to insufficient support for hair anchoring.

This case report details an eleven-year-old male with recurring alopecia initially attributed to fungal infections but ultimately diagnosed as trichotillomania.
