CTE can distort results in hair growth trials, so exclude it carefully.

The document concludes that doctors should monitor children's brain development when treating hemangiomas with interferon alfa and consider stopping the treatment if problems arise, while also exploring drugs that might counteract side effects.

Non-scarring hair loss can be diagnosed with two 4mm punch biopsies, one cut vertically and the other transversely.

A scalp biopsy is essential for accurately identifying different types of hair loss.
