Hair changes may indicate disease activity in pemphigus patients.

This abstract presents supplementary trichoscopy images for alopecia areata and scarring alopecia but reports no clinical findings.

This case study examined a 72-year-old woman with unique hair shaft constrictions consistent with monilethrix, despite features atypical for this condition, ultimately reaching a diagnosis that led to successful improvement using oral minoxidil and reduced hair trauma.

This study developed an automated image analysis framework for diagnosing hair disorders using trichoscopic images, reporting a Random Forest classifier as having an 86.67% accuracy in distinguishing between different scalp pathologies based on quantitative image features.

This report on two Indian male siblings with monilethrix highlights trichoscopy's role in diagnosing this condition, which can be complicated by early-onset androgenetic alopecia.

In this case report, trichoscopy was highlighted as a vital diagnostic tool for pediatric alopecia areata, showing significant hair regrowth in a 4-year-old girl with toxoplasma-related alopecia after six weeks of therapy, emphasizing its role in tracking therapeutic progress.

This study found that quantitative trichoscopy is a simple and effective method for determining hair density and thickness in Egyptians, establishing baseline values for clinical hair loss investigations.

This case report describes the first known instances of male androgenetic alopecia with trichoteiromania, suggesting self-induced hair loss can occur alongside patterned miniaturization of hair.

This study found that specific histologic features in skin biopsies can help support a diagnosis of traumatic alopecia (trichotillomania), but not all markers are distinct to the condition.

In this study, researchers investigated the alignment of trichoscopic findings with ayurvedic signs (lakshanas) for diagnosing hair loss, suggesting that integrating these perspectives could enhance diagnostics and management of hair and scalp conditions.

This study suggests that hormonal disturbances play a role in female pattern hair loss and that trichoscopy may be a useful tool for diagnosis and differentiation from other conditions.

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 study suggests that while low-cost videomicroscopes can correctly identify hair shaft alterations, they may be unreliable for detailed follicular and perifollicular trichoscopic examination compared to standard videodermatoscopes.

This article discusses the principles and considerations of clinical photography for hair disorders in dermatology, reporting no new clinical findings.

This study reported that trichoscopy revealed distinctive patterns across different autoimmune bullous diseases, suggesting it can be a useful preliminary diagnostic tool for differentiating these conditions.

In this study, researchers used trichoscopy to establish standardized findings for normal hair and scalp characteristics in 360 healthy males, noting significant age-related differences in hair diameter variability and identifying potential pathological indicators like colored dots and scarring not present in healthy individuals.

In this study, trichoscopic examination found distinct hair characteristics for diagnosing eyebrow loss: alopecia areata is marked by features like exclamation mark hairs, while frontal fibrosing alopecia shows dystrophic hairs and distinctive regrowth patterns.

This review discusses recent advances in noninvasive hair imaging technologies, such as global photography, trichoscopy, reflectance confocal microscopy, and optical coherence tomography, highlighting their potential to improve hair diagnostics and treatment monitoring, while also outlining their clinical applications and limitations.

In this study conducted from September to November 2023, researchers used trichoscopy to accurately diagnose cicatricial alopecias by revealing unique patterns, reducing the need for biopsies, and proving to be a valuable non-invasive diagnostic method.

In this study, researchers found that a low-cost USB dermoscope can effectively detect microscopic hair changes associated with early female pattern hair loss, making it a useful tool for diagnosis even without expensive equipment or programs.

Trichoscopy helped diagnose a teenage girl's hair loss as monilethrix.

This study found that trichoscopic parameters in male androgenetic alopecia deteriorated progressively with increasing disease severity and were significantly linked to genetic, metabolic, and psychosocial factors.

This review presents various trichoscopic findings for diagnosing alopecia areata but reports no new clinical results, emphasizing that no single marker is pathognomonic and multiple features should be considered together.

In this study, certain trichoscopic features were found to be sensitive and specific for diagnosing primary cicatricial alopecias and its subtypes using dermatoscopy.

In this study, trichoscopy significantly improved diagnostic accuracy in non-cicatricial alopecia, identifying alopecia areata as the most common cause and effectively aiding diagnosis in 28.2% of ambiguous cases.

This study observed that Koreans generally have lower hair density, larger diameter, and slower growth rate compared to Caucasians, providing useful baseline data for studying hair diseases and treatments.

This observational study reports that a TRASER device using specific wavelengths for vascular and follicular targets showed both clinical responses and histological changes, suggesting its potential as an effective vascular and hair removal tool.
