In this review, researchers outline the characteristics of scalp rosacea, an underrecognized inflammatory dermatosis, describing its multifactorial pathogenesis, diagnostic features, and management strategies, noting its clinical similarities with facial rosacea and the absence of standardized diagnostic criteria or therapeutic guidelines.

In this pilot study, topical latanoprost acid was observed to increase hair count and improve hair follicle structure in women with androgenetic alopecia, with no serious adverse events, suggesting potential for further investigation to confirm its efficacy and safety.

Hair shaft disorders often indicate genetic or systemic issues and are managed by minimizing damage.

In this case report, a 6-year-old boy with Netherton syndrome was diagnosed using trichoscopy, which revealed characteristic hair shaft abnormalities such as bamboo, golf tee, and matchstick hairs.

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.

Alopecia areata incognito in children can be effectively treated with triamcinolone acetonide and supplements, leading to full hair regrowth.

This study developed a convolutional neural network model for non-invasive diagnosis of androgenetic alopecia using dermoscopic images, demonstrating potential accuracy and scalability while highlighting the importance of model interpretability for clinical use.

This review provides a detailed analysis of frontal fibrosing alopecia, focusing on its prevalence in postmenopausal Caucasian women, associated comorbidities, and potential autoimmune, genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors; it emphasizes the need for improved understanding to enhance diagnosis and treatment.

This article highlights the various dermoscopic signs described in dermatology but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses tinea capitis, highlighting its causes, symptoms, diagnostic methods, and the importance of selecting treatment based on the causal agent for effective outcomes; it reports no new clinical results.

This review describes the clinical, trichoscopic, and histopathological features of hair disorders linked to autoimmune diseases and reports no new clinical results.

A teenager's hair with alternating white and dark bands, known as Pili annulati, is a genetic condition that is usually harmless and often considered attractive.

The authors discuss that hair loss affecting the occipital scalp is understudied and may be caused by factors like movement irritation and clothing occlusion; this lack of data can lead to missed diagnoses and inadequate treatment.

This review examines the androgen-dependent subtype of acquired progressive kinking of the hair and suggests it may be an early indicator of androgenetic alopecia, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing between subtypes for clinical decisions.

This review summarizes existing knowledge on androgenetic alopecia, including its epidemiology, pathophysiology, and management, but presents no new research findings.

This review discusses fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution, noting its trichoscopic and histopathological features, and emphasizes the importance for dermatologists to recognize and treat it early to prevent irreversible follicular damage.

In this case report, the authors describe a rare presentation of alopecia areata mimicking frontal fibrosing alopecia, emphasizing the diagnostic value of trichoscopy and the need to consider alopecia areata in differential diagnoses.

This review covers trichoscopy's role in diagnosing scalp disorders, emphasizing its potential to improve clinical accuracy, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found a strong correlation between the Sinclair Scale and cumulative hair thickness density, allowing the estimation of the Sinclair Scale from trichoscopy-derived statistics.

This article is a letter to the editor discussing a rare case of Leydig cell tumor with type I diabetes mellitus causing female pattern hair loss, but it contains no abstract or new clinical findings.

This article reviews the use of trichoscopy for diagnosing various types of alopecia and reports no new clinical results; it is suggested as a non-invasive method for diagnosis and monitoring treatment responses.

This study suggests that the presence of more than six vellus hairs in the frontal scalp at 20-fold magnification can be an additional criterion for diagnosing early female pattern hair loss.

This study found that trichoscopy is essential for evaluating the severity of alopecia areata and predicting treatment responses, contributing to more personalized patient management.

This study found that Follicular Maps, derived from trichoscopic images, remained consistent over time and unaffected by hair cycling or noncicatricial alopecia, offering a precise tool for diagnosing and monitoring hair and scalp conditions.

This study suggests that trichoscopic features, such as perifollicular erythema and cicatricial white patches, are independently associated with pruritus and the severity of frontal fibrosing alopecia.

This study suggests that corkscrew hair could serve as a new diagnostic marker for tinea capitis and that dermoscopy might help diagnose atypical cases swiftly.

In this study, trichoscopy was found to be a valuable non-invasive tool for diagnosing scalp lesions, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and reducing the need for scalp biopsies by identifying specific trichoscopic features associated with conditions like psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, and alopecia areata.

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.

This study found that dermoscopy can identify distinctive features in canine pattern alopecia, such as hair shaft thinning and pigmentation patterns, which may aid in diagnosing this and potentially other skin disorders.

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.
