This study describes permanent scalp alopecia in patients receiving chemotherapy, radiation, or both, and highlights the need for further research to identify causative factors and mitigation strategies.

This review discusses the complexities of diagnosing and treating iron deficiency related to nutritional anemia and hair loss, concluding that routine screening and supplementation for hair loss are not yet supported by sufficient evidence.

In this study, permanent alopecia after haematopoietic stem cell transplantation was found in 16% of patients and was significantly associated with conditioning regimens involving busulphan.

In this study, researchers found that alkylating chemotherapy causes hair follicle stem cells to lose their regenerative ability by initially triggering proliferation followed by apoptosis, leading to permanent regeneration loss.

In this review, researchers summarize drugs associated with scarring or permanent hair loss, notably after chemotherapy and tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatments, emphasizing the need for stronger evidence and long-term follow-up studies, as current findings are mostly from case reports.
