research Secondary cicatricial and other permanent alopecias
The document says that treating the root cause of hair follicle damage is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss, and treatment options vary.
research A Systematic Approach to Afro-Textured Hair Disorders
Dermatoscopy helps diagnose hair and scalp disorders in people with Afro-textured hair, but more research is needed for better understanding and treatment.
research Non‐infective mucocutaneous presentations of human immunodeficiency virus infection
Most HIV patients develop skin symptoms that can indicate the stage of their disease.
research The clinicopathological spectrum of trichoepitheliomas: a retrospective descriptive study
Trichoepitheliomas can be hard to distinguish from other skin conditions and often start in teenage years.
research Clinical, Histological and Trichoscopic Correlations in Scalp Disorders
Trichoscopy helps diagnose hair and scalp problems but isn't always definitive and should be used with other methods.
research Current Genetics in Hair Diseases
Genetic mutations cause various hair diseases, and whole genome sequencing may reveal more about these conditions.
research Giant solitary trichoepithelioma: A rare trichogenic tumor
Giant solitary trichoepithelioma is a rare, usually non-cancerous hair follicle tumor that can sometimes turn into skin cancer.
research Posters Presented at the 19th Joint Meeting of the International Society of Dermatopathology, March 2–3, 2016, Hilton Crystal City at Washington Reagan National Airport, Arlington, Virginia, USA
The meeting showcased rare skin disease cases, highlighting the need for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
research Dermatopathology Workshop Summary, Berlin 2004
The workshop aimed to improve hair loss disorder diagnosis and understanding.
research Scalp Dermoscopy or Trichoscopy
Trichoscopy is a quick, noninvasive method to diagnose hair and scalp disorders, often reducing the need for biopsies.
research Scalp whorls
Abnormal scalp whorls can indicate brain development issues but may also be seen in neurologically normal people.
research Androgenetic alopecia: Update on etiology
AGA, a common hair loss, is caused by genetics, hormones, age, and environmental factors.
research A case of cicatricial alopecia associated with pemphigus: a case report
The link between pemphigus and the patient's scarring hair loss is still unclear.
research Transfollicular drug delivery—Is it a reality?
Hair follicles may soon be used more for targeted and systemic drug delivery.
research Hormonal regulation in male androgenetic alopecia—Sex hormones and beyond: Evidence from recent genetic studies
Hormones and genes affect hair growth and male baldness.
research Vitamin D Receptor Gene Polymorphism In Chronic Telogen Effluvium; A Case-Control Study
Certain gene variations in the Vitamin D receptor may increase the risk of chronic hair loss.
research Male Pattern Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgens contribute to common male hair loss; more research needed for hair growth medication.
research Atrichia with papular lesions in a Taiwanese patient without hairless (HR) gene mutation
A Taiwanese patient had hair loss and skin bumps without the usual gene mutation, suggesting other genetic factors might be involved.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
Genes related to keratin, skin cell differentiation, and immune functions are key in hedgehog skin and spine development.
research Cysteine and Glutamine level in hair shaft fractures patients
Cysteine strengthens hair, and glutamine fuels hair growth.
research Hidradenitis Suppurativa/Acne Inversa/Dissecting Terminal Hair Folliculitis
Hidradenitis Suppurativa is a chronic skin condition best treated early with surgery for better outcomes and less recurrence.
research Hair Pathology
Triple horizontal scalp biopsies are 98% accurate in diagnosing hair loss, better than single biopsies.
research Disorders of the Hair and Nails
The document reviews various hair and nail disorders, their causes, and treatments, emphasizing the need for proper diagnosis and the link between nail changes and systemic diseases.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
The study found that certain genes are important for hedgehog skin appendage development and immunity, with spines possibly evolving for protection and infection resistance.
research Androgen effects on the skin
Androgens like testosterone affect skin health and can lead to conditions such as acne and hair loss, with various treatments available.
research Why are men with premature alopecia at higher risk of benign prostatic hyperplasia? And what about prostate cancer?
Men with early hair loss may have a higher risk of enlarged prostate and possibly prostate cancer due to shared hormonal factors.
research Wnt-dependent de novo hair follicle regeneration in adult mouse skin after wounding
Hair follicles can regrow in wounded adult mouse skin using a process like embryo development.
research Serotoninergic and melatoninergic systems are fully expressed in human skin
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin.
