This article reviews trichoscopic signs of chemotherapy-induced alopecia, including exclamation marks, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that trichoscopy can rapidly and noninvasively diagnose tinea capitis and alopecia areata in pediatric patients by identifying specific hair patterns associated with each condition.

This study found that certain trichoscopic features like white peripilar sign, yellow dots, and scalp pigmentation are positively correlated with the severity of androgenetic alopecia in Chinese patients.

This abstract suggests that specific trichoscopic features like black dots, coiled hair, and trichoptilosis may help differentiate trichotillomania from patchy alopecia areata.

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 case report describes alopecia areata dermoscopy in an African-American patient, revealing novel patterns such as a diffuse honeycomb-like pigmented network and white dots, suggesting skin color may affect dermoscopic findings.

This study suggests that trichoscopy with a handheld dermatoscope may help differentiate temporal triangular alopecia from other localized alopecia by identifying specific hair features.

This study analyzed the features of alopecia areata incognita and diffuse alopecia areata, finding distinct patterns in hair loss regions and trichoscopic signs, and noted a benign course responsive to topical steroid therapy.

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

This study reviews the use of trichoscopy in diagnosing and monitoring alopecia areata, highlighting that certain trichoscopic findings like yellow and black dots, exclamation mark hairs, and others, provide valuable insights into disease status and treatment response.

This study observed that while dermoscopic features in alopecia areata for dark-skinned individuals align with existing literature, yellow dots appear more frequently and could help in grading disease severity.

This article reviews alopecia areata incognita, a rare condition mostly seen in young women, and discusses its similarities and differences with telogen effluvium; however, it reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that yellow dots observed in scalp videodermoscopy are not highly specific to alopecia areata, as they appear in various types of alopecia.

This study found that after 24 weeks of DPCP treatment for alopecia areata, there was a significant increase in new capillaries and hair regrowth detectable by videocapillaroscopy.

This review discusses the clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment options for alopecia areata of the beard and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, trichoscopic features aiding differential diagnosis of alopecia in Korean patients were found to be similar to those in Caucasians, but pigment pattern frequencies differed due to racial characteristics.

This study reports that yellow dots in a higher number per field of vision were the most consistent dermoscopic finding in severe cases of alopecia areata.

This study reported that alopecic lesions after radiation exposure during angioembolization share dermoscopic features with alopecia areata, highlighting the importance of accurate patient history to avoid misdiagnosis.

This review discusses the role of dermoscopy in diagnosing hair and scalp disorders, noting its ability to aid in differential diagnosis without the need for biopsies; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that dermoscopy is an effective tool for diagnosing and monitoring androgenetic alopecia in women, as it helped identify common signs such as hair miniaturization and peripilar brown halo.

In this study, empty follicular openings and pigtail hairs were more frequently observed in children with alopecia areata compared to adults, while yellow dots were less common in children.

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 report describes a case of postoperative pressure-induced alopecia in a 5-year-old girl following liver transplantation, suggesting that scalp dermatoscopy may help differentiate this condition from alopecia areata.

This article discusses the use of dermoscopy for diagnosing hair and scalp disorders in children and reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews nonscarring and scarring hair loss conditions that may mimic androgenetic alopecia, reporting no new clinical results and highlighting the need for accurate diagnosis in hair restoration surgery.

This study found that both fractional CO2 laser and cryotherapy were effective and safe treatments for alopecia areata, with the CO2 laser showing somewhat better results.

This review addresses the complexities in trichoscopy terminology and proposes an updated diagnostic flowchart for hair diseases, but it reports no new clinical findings.

The authors concluded that trichoscopy is a valuable noninvasive tool for diagnosing and monitoring nonscarring alopecia, aiding in the identification of new hair signs in difficult cases.

This paper reviews Satoyoshi syndrome and suggests diagnostic criteria to differentiate its subtypes, emphasizing the importance of testing alopecia areata patients for antinuclear antibodies, muscle spasms, and diarrhea.

This study reviewed the usefulness of trichoscopy in diagnosing and monitoring alopecia areata, noting that the technique identifies specific hair features like yellow and black dots, which are linked to the disease's chronic nature and treatment response.
