March 2026 in “Ukrains kyi Visnyk Psykhonevrolohii” This study examined the quality of life in 153 women with diffuse alopecia, categorized into metabolic (45 individuals) and mixed alopecia (108 individuals) groups. It found that women with mixed alopecia had significantly lower quality of life scores, particularly in psychological well-being, interpersonal interaction, socio-emotional support, and personal fulfillment, compared to those with metabolic alopecia. The study highlighted a strong relationship between mental maladaptation and quality of life, with negative correlations between quality of life and the severity of depression, anxiety, and somatoform symptoms, and positive correlations with psychosocial adaptation. These findings suggest that the quality of life in women with diffuse alopecia is influenced by the disease's genesis and mental maladaptation, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive biopsychosocial treatment approach.
