research Morphological Approach to Hair Disorders
Accurate clinical, histological, and genetic methods are key for understanding and treating hair disorders.
research The Biology and Genomics of Human Hair Follicles: A Focus on Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in Androgenetic Alopecia is caused by genetics, aging, and lifestyle, leading to hair follicle shrinkage and related health risks.
research Histopathology of non-scarring alopecia
The document describes how to tell different types of non-scarring hair loss apart by looking at hair and scalp tissue under a microscope.
research Morphological and morphometric study of the androgenetic alopecic scalp using two- and three-dimensional analysis comparing regional differences
The study found that balding scalps have more thin hairs and larger oil glands, which might contribute to skin conditions related to hair loss.
research An atypical clinical presentation of alopecia in 2 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus
Two patients with lupus had an unusual type of hair loss not typical for the disease but improved with treatment.
research Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution
Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution is a unique hair loss condition that may respond to antiandrogen therapy.
research Androgenetic alopecia. Modelling progression and regrowth
AGA causes hair loss through follicle miniaturization and hair cycle changes; regrowth depends on anagen initiation in kenogen follicles.
research Exhaustive analysis of scalp hair regression: subjective and objective perception from initial hair loss to severe miniaturisation and drug-induced regrowth
Hair loss reduces hair thickness and coverage, but drug treatments mainly revive dormant hairs rather than reverse thinning; patients often undervalue their hair loss severity.
research Alopecia areata-like hair loss after a tick bite
Tick bites can cause hair loss similar to alopecia areata, and baricitinib may help regrow hair.
research Diffuse hair loss in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus
A woman with lupus experienced hair regrowth after treatment, but hair transplantation is not advised for her condition.
research Dermoscopy in female androgenic alopecia: Method standardization and diagnostic criteria
Trichoscopy can diagnose female hair loss with high accuracy by looking for specific patterns in hair and scalp appearance.
research Permanent alopecia in patients with breast cancer after taxane chemotherapy and adjuvant hormonal therapy: Clinicopathologic findings in a cohort of 10 patients
Some breast cancer patients developed permanent hair loss after chemotherapy and hormonal therapy, showing patterns similar to common baldness and alopecia areata.
research The Ludwig pattern of androgenetic alopecia is due to a hierarchy of androgen sensitivity within follicular units that leads to selective miniaturization and a reduction in the number of terminal hairs per follicular unit
Ludwig pattern hair loss results from varying androgen sensitivity, causing fewer thick hairs and more thin hairs.
research Hair regrowth treatment efficacy and resistance in androgenetic alopecia: A systematic review and continuous Bayesian network meta-analysis
ALRV5XR is the most effective hair regrowth treatment at 24 weeks.
research Histopathology of alopecia areata, acute and chronic: Why is it important to the clinician?
Recognizing the different stages of alopecia areata is crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
research Two different trichoscopic patterns of mid-frontal scalp in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia and clinical features of androgenetic alopecia
Two trichoscopic patterns found in hair loss: diffuse fibrotic and androgenetic alopecia, affecting treatment choice and regrowth chances.
research Comparative Study Between 2% Minoxidil Topical Spray vs. Intradermal Injection (Mesotherapy) for Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Female Patients: A Controlled, 4-month Randomized Trial
Mesotherapy is more effective than topical spray for female hair loss treatment.
research Morphological Substantiation of Clinical Efficacy of Platelet Rich Plasma in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
Platelet rich plasma therapy significantly improves hair growth and increases the number of hair follicles in men with androgenetic alopecia.
research Permanent scalp alopecia related to breast cancer chemotherapy by sequential fluorouracil/epirubicin/cyclophosphamide (FEC) and docetaxel: a prospective study of 20 patients
Some breast cancer chemotherapy can cause permanent hair loss.
research Kenogen in Female Androgenetic Alopecia
Kenogen increases with hair loss in women.
research Androgenic alopecia: A counterproductive outcome of the anabolic effect of androgens
Male pattern baldness is an unintended side effect of the body's use of androgens for muscle growth, especially in those genetically prone to it.
research Histopathologic features of alopecia areata incognito: a review of 46 cases
The research found specific signs to diagnose alopecia areata incognito and noted patients generally regrow hair after steroid treatment.
research A novel topical combination of minoxidil and spironolactone for androgenetic alopecia: Clinical, histopathological, and physicochemical study
Minoxidil and spironolactone combo effectively treats androgenetic alopecia, improving hair density and diameter.
research Evaluation of difficult alopecia areata cases requiring histopathological confirmation
Histopathological confirmation is crucial for accurately diagnosing challenging alopecia areata cases.
research Androgenetic alopecia in males: a histopathological and ultrastructural study
Hair loss in males involves inflammation, collagen buildup, and follicle damage, with severity increasing with age and baldness duration.
research Avaliação quantitativa em cortes histológicos transversais do couro cabeludo
The study found average numbers for different types of hair follicles in the scalp and observed differences between men and women, suggesting reasons for more common hair shedding in women.
research Impairment of autophagy may be associated with follicular miniaturization in androgenetic alopecia by inducing premature catagen
Impaired autophagy may cause hair loss by triggering early catagen.
research Non-Invasive Techniques for Evaluating Alopecia Areata
Non-invasive methods can effectively diagnose and manage alopecia areata.
research Miniaturized hairs maintain contact with the arrector pili muscle in alopecia areata but not in androgenetic alopecia: A model for reversible miniaturization and potential for hair regrowth
Miniaturized hairs stay connected to muscle in alopecia areata, allowing possible regrowth, but not in androgenetic alopecia.
