This study identified a new dermoscopic feature, plexiform erythema, in lichen planopilaris lesions, suggesting it may indicate active disease and the potential need for more aggressive treatment.

This study reports that scalp cooling therapies and minoxidil may promote hair regrowth in patients experiencing persistent chemotherapy-induced alopecia, with trichoscopy aiding in treatment assessment.

This study reported that two male patients with diffuse unpatterned alopecia exhibited donor-area involvement in both the vertex and occiput, challenging the assumption of occipital stability for hair transplantation, and showed partial improvement following treatment with oral finasteride and topical minoxidil.

This study reviews female hair loss conditions with a focus on diagnosis and treatment. It highlights female pattern hair loss as the most common form and emphasizes the need for personalized therapy, including topical minoxidil and, when appropriate, antiandrogen treatments.

This study observed that 2.5% of patients with mycosis fungoides or Szary syndrome experienced alopecia, predominantly within skin lesions, with scalp metastases from other cancers also potentially causing hair loss, highlighting the diagnostic value of trichoscopy in differentiating alopecia types.

In this case report, a 2-month-old girl with tinea capitis showed significant improvement after treatment with oral griseofulvin and topical ketoconazole. The study emphasizes the importance of layered diagnostics and systemic therapy for effective management of this fungal scalp infection in infants.

This study reported that a 29-year-old woman with telogen effluvium experienced improved hair growth and reduced hair loss through 12 sessions of plum blossom acupuncture combined with electroacupuncture, as evidenced by new hair growth, improved hair-pull test results, and decreased telogen phase hair percentage.

A machine learning model can predict scarring in lichen planopilaris using factors like vitamin D levels and diagnostic delay.

In this study, experts propose a diagnostic and treatment guideline for folliculitis decalvans, emphasizing the role of trichoscopy and introducing a therapeutic algorithm tailored to disease activity, which is significant for clinical management given the lack of specific clinical trials.

This study reports a unique case of trichotillomania incognita in an adult female that mimicked female pattern hair loss, highlighting the importance of trichoscopy and histology for accurate diagnosis.

This study reported six pediatric cases of temporal triangular alopecia and highlighted the use of trichoscopy to distinguish it by detecting a distinctive carpet of vellus hair, helping to differentiate TTA from other hair loss conditions.

In this study, three different hair serums were tested for their impact on Telogen effluvium in adult females, finding all effective in reducing hair shedding, with the cytokine-based serum showing the most significant improvement, reducing hair fall by 54.6% without adverse effects.

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.

This study highlights the complexity of diagnosing scalp fungal infections, emphasizing how clinical evaluation, trichoscopy, and cultural samples are essential in distinguishing tinea capitis from similar conditions like piedra, seborrheic dermatitis, and psoriasis, due to overlapping symptoms like scaling and hair changes.

In this study, 10 men with androgenetic alopecia who did not respond to standard treatments showed significant hair regrowth and satisfaction after being treated with polydioxanone scalp threads, suggesting a potential therapeutic advantage for this approach.
