In this case study, the authors explored the management of ophiasis, a rare and challenging form of alopecia areata, in a 3-year-old boy using the Unani system of medicine, aiming to provide insights for treatment approaches.

Hair loss improved after removing pituitary tumor.

5% minoxidil foam helps women with thinning hair.

This letter compares automated digital image analysis (TrichoScan) with manual marking of hairs in male patients with androgenetic alopecia but reports no new results.

This letter argues that cicatricial pattern hair loss likely represents end-stage androgenetic alopecia and not a variant of lichen planopilaris, as previously suggested.

This article discusses various aspects of trichoscopy for diagnosing hair and scalp disorders and reports no clinical results, offering guidance and highlighting pitfalls for better application of this tool by dermatologists.

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 article discusses treatments for female pattern hair loss, highlighting that oral antiandrogens and topical minoxidil can effectively arrest progression and reverse miniaturization in many patients with mild-to-moderate cases, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the use of trichoscopy for diagnosing common hair and scalp diseases and introduces a new classification for specific skin surface abnormalities, without presenting new clinical results.

This study found that mesotherapy with a dutasteride-containing preparation improved hair growth indicators in female pattern hair loss better than saline, with minimal side effects and greater effectiveness in patients with shorter disease duration.

This review examines the epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, and diagnosis of female pattern hair loss and reports no new results.

This study found that in the Thai population, hair density varies by scalp location and decreases with age, and that Asians generally have lower hair density compared to Caucasian and African populations.

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 suggests that trichoscopy may assist in diagnosing pemphigus, particularly for scalp-specific lesions, by identifying certain characteristic features.

This article reviews the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of female pattern hair loss, highlighting the importance of early medical intervention to arrest hair loss progression, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, diagnosis, systemic associations, and treatments for female pattern hair loss and reports no new clinical findings.

This article discusses the potential of trichoscopy in diagnosing and treating dissecting cellulitis of the scalp and emphasizes the need for early diagnosis to prevent progression but reports no new clinical results.

This review addresses treatment approaches for female pattern hair loss, highlighting that combining different therapies may be more effective than single treatments, but no new results are reported.

This article reviews trichoscopic techniques for diagnosing common hair loss conditions and presents a revised algorithm for identifying specific features of cicatricial and noncicatricial alopecia, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that thermal hair straightening in Asian women was associated with various signs of scalp and hair damage, including CCCA-like hair loss.

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 examined 15 female patients with hypothyroidism to investigate the characterization of their alopecia and ruled out other causes, using medical histories, and clinical, trichoscopic, and histologic findings.

This study found trichoscopy to be a reliable non-invasive method for diagnosing various forms of alopecia, aiding in clinical management and reducing the need for biopsies in a hospital-based setting with 90 patients, including those with uncertain diagnoses.

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 study found that oral minoxidil was associated with short-term improvements in clinical severity for androgenetic alopecia, whereas oral dutasteride did not show significant early clinical changes in the six-month follow-up.

This study examined the relationships between the Dermatology Life Quality Index and trichoscopic and clinical-anamnestic characteristics in young Ukrainian men with alopecia areata, finding varying strengths of mostly non-significant correlations, especially in those with grade I and III alopecia.

This study demonstrates that an AI-based grading framework using a novel area ratio metric improves the accuracy and consistency of male pattern hair loss classification, especially in advanced grades, compared to traditional methods.

In this hospital-based case-control study, researchers at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University found that age, family history of alopecia, and low serum ferritin levels may be significant risk factors for female pattern hair loss among the studied population.

This study found that most dermatologists in the Middle East manage mild to severe alopecia areata primarily with potent topical corticosteroids and identified long-term disease control and improved efficacy as key unmet needs.

In this study, researchers evaluated trichoscopy in diagnosing non-scarring alopecia and found diagnostic value in observing diverse hair diameters in androgenetic alopecia, black dots and broken hairs in alopecia areata, and empty follicles in telogen effluvium, supporting trichoscopy's utility in differentiating alopecia types.
