This study reported that trichoscopy can identify specific hair shaft abnormalities linked to increased serological activity, highlighting its use as a valuable non-invasive diagnostic tool in pediatric dermatology for neonates with ECS.

This review highlights the increasing use of trichoscopy, a noninvasive and well-tolerated diagnostic tool, to aid in the accurate diagnosis and management of various pediatric hair and scalp conditions, such as alopecia and other abnormalities.

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 article describes various hair and scalp examination techniques, including noninvasive, semi-invasive, and invasive methods, noting that trichoscopy is a simple, well-accepted, noninvasive technique for evaluating hair loss patients and monitoring treatment.

This review discusses trichoscopy as a noninvasive, effective technique for diagnosing various hair loss conditions and monitoring treatment, highlighting its potential to reduce scalp biopsy necessity.

This study found that trichoscopic examination is useful for diagnosing and monitoring systemic lupus erythematosus, with severe diffuse non-scarring alopecia indicating active disease.

This study found that 5% topical minoxidil was moderately more effective at increasing hair regrowth than 10% minoxidil and placebo in men with androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that pigmented vellus and upright regrowing hairs are the only predictive trichoscopic markers of hair regrowth in patients with alopecia totalis and universalis.

This study reports ten cases of non-marginal traction alopecia in women with very long hair, which was improved with shorter hair cuts and topical minoxidil application.

In this case study, trichoscopy was found to be a valuable non-invasive tool for diagnosing dissecting cellulitis of the scalp, enabling early detection and intervention to prevent disease progression and reduce the need for invasive procedures.

This study found that trichoscopic features like exclamation mark hairs and angulated hairs were more indicative of alopecia areata in an Asian population, while features like broken hairs of different lengths and flame hairs were more common in trichotillomania.

This study aimed to identify trichoscopic features that help differentiate between tinea capitis and alopecia areata in children, enhancing diagnosis and treatment decisions visually and non-invasively.

This study describes a distinct pattern of trichoscopic features associated with chemotherapy-induced alopecia and how these features evolve through different phases of chemotherapy treatment.

This study observed that following hair transplantation, patients exhibited prominent perifollicular erythema and scaling one month after surgery, whereas by six months, accentuated follicular ostia and varying hair shaft abnormalities were consistently noted.

This study in young Ukrainian men found that specific body measurements, like shoulder width and tibia epiphysis width, are highly predictive of alopecia areata occurrence, though not for its progression, using discriminant models (p<0.001).

In this study, after long-term observation of human scalp hair follicles over 16 years, the researchers found that a topical 5% minoxidil solution could stimulate hair regrowth after a period of dormancy, though with reduced growth rates and hair diameter.

This review discusses the unique characteristics and disorders of Asian hair, emphasizing the need for more comprehensive studies in this area.

In this rare case report, the researchers described a 66-year-old African woman with lipedematous alopecia, highlighting its clinical features, the significance of palpation in examinations, and the uncertainty of it being a distinct disease entity or a combination of two conditions.

This review discusses the dermoscopic features of common hair and scalp disorders and reports no new clinical results, aiming to assist dermatologists in diagnosing conditions like tinea capitis and alopecia areata.

Trichoscopy helps diagnose and manage different types of hair loss effectively.

Dermatoscopy helps diagnose hair and scalp disorders in people with Afro-textured hair, but more research is needed for better understanding and treatment.

This case report observed that after 6 months of treatment with topical cetirizine and oral vitamin D, hair density and quality improved in three girls with congenital hypotrichosis due to ectodermal dysplasia.

In this study, trichoscopic examination revealed that patients with androgenetic alopecia had significantly more yellow dots, pilosebaceous units with one hair, and increased perifollicular hyperpigmentation compared to healthy controls.

This study examined the clinical patterns and trichoscopic features of female pattern hair loss at a rural tertiary care hospital, but it does not report any specific results.

In this study, the authors evaluated 200 Egyptian children with focal non-cicatricial alopecia, finding that alopecia areata (42%) and tinea capitis (40.5%) were the most prevalent causes. Trichoscopy identified unique features for each condition, enhancing diagnosis and management.

This article reviews the role of trichoscopy in diagnosing hair weathering conditions like trichorrhexis nodosa and trichoptilosis and suggests treatment by avoiding harmful chemical and physical factors, but it provides no new research findings.

This simulation study found that higher cannabis exposure in a virtual population was associated with increased hair shedding severity and reduced follicular density, but these results are based on modeled data and cannot establish causal relationships.

In this study, patients with androgenetic alopecia who received type A botulinum toxin treatment showed increased follicle width and length at the vertex and left frontal area over three months, but no significant changes in follicle or hair count compared to the control group.

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 discusses the use of trichoscopy as a helpful tool for early diagnosis and monitoring of dissecting cellulitis, but it reports no new clinical results.
