A specific gene mutation causes complete hair loss in an Irish Traveller family.
research Alopecia in children
Most hair loss in children is caused by a few common conditions and is easy to diagnose, but rare types require careful evaluation.
research Granulomatous Alopecia Areata: A Rare Report With a Review
Granulomatous Alopecia Areata is rare and may be caused by hair antigens or follicle destruction.
research The aetiology and pathogenesis of alopecia areata
The cause of alopecia areata is likely a mix of genetics, immune system issues, and environmental factors, with more research needed to understand it fully.
research Hair Diseases (Alopecia Areata and Androgenetic Alopecia)
Alopecia areata, a type of hair loss, may be passed through T cells and has genetic links, while treatments vary in effectiveness. Male pattern baldness can be treated with finasteride and is influenced by androgens in hair follicles.
research Alopécie fibrosante frontale associée à un lichen pigmentogène
Frontal fibrosing alopecia can occur in children, not just postmenopausal women.
research Severe Monilethrix Associated with Intractable Scalp Pruritus, Posterior Subcapsular Cataract, Brachiocephaly, and Distinct Facial Features: A New Variant of Monilethrix Syndrome?
A new severe form of monilethrix syndrome includes hair loss, scalp itching, cataracts, and distinct facial features.
research Congenital Triangular Alopecia
Congenital triangular alopecia is a harmless, non-spreading hair loss condition often seen in young children.
research A Variable Monilethrix Phenotype Associated With a Novel Mutation, Glu402Lys, in the Helix Termination Motif of the Type II Hair Keratin hHb1
A new mutation, Glu402Lys, in hair keratin is linked to variable symptoms of monilethrix.
research Occipital Fibrosing Alopecia in a Young Male: A Case Report
A young man with an unusual type of scarring hair loss suggests a possible new variant of a known scalp condition.
research Genome-Wide Association Study of Alopecia Areata in Taiwan: The Conflict Between Individuals and Hair Follicles
Certain genetic variants linked to immune response increase the risk of alopecia areata in Taiwanese people.
research Description of clinical aspects and microscopy of the hair shaft of a carrier of familial monilethrix
Monilethrix causes brittle hair and hair loss, and it runs in families.
research Novel Hairless Mutations in Two Kindreds with Autosomal Recessive Papular Atrichia
New mutations in the hairless gene may cause hair loss and affect bone development.
research Androgenetic Alopecia
research Alopecia Areata and Alopecia Areata Incognita
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune hair loss condition, with various treatments showing mixed effectiveness and no guaranteed cure.
research Autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis caused by LIPH mutations: a case report
Mutations in the LIPH gene cause woolly hair in a child.
research Alopecia areata with lymphocytic mural folliculitis affecting the isthmus in a thoroughbred mare
The horse had a rare type of hair loss caused by immune cells attacking hair follicles.
research ALOPECIA CIRCUMSCRIPTA DUE TO VITAMIN A DEFICIENCY
Alopecia in the woman was likely caused by vitamin A deficiency, not a fungal infection.
research Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune disease causing hair loss in patches, often starting before age 20, and while some cases recover on their own, treatments include topical corticosteroids, minoxidil, and promising new methods like IL-31 antibodies and 308-nm Excimer laser therapy.
research Dermoscopy: A rapid bedside tool to assess monilethrix
Dermoscopy quickly and accurately diagnosed a rare hair disorder in a 12-year-old girl.
research T Cell Immunodeficiency, Congenital Alopecia, and Nail Dystrophy

research BH27 When patterns blur: recognizing the overlap of alopecia areata and lichen planopilaris
A rare dual diagnosis of alopecia areata and lichen planopilaris requires thorough evaluation for effective treatment.
research Identification of factors contributing to phenotypic divergence via quantitative image analyses of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with homozygous c.736T>ALIPH mutation
Different hair fiber development might explain why hair loss severity varies in patients with a specific genetic mutation, and treatments that thicken hair could help.
research Monilethrix: Mutational Hotspot in the Helix Termination Motif of the Human Hair Basic Keratin 6
Monilethrix severity varies and may be influenced by other genetic or environmental factors.
research Circumscribed alopecia areata incognita
A rare form of alopecia causes hair thinning without bald spots and may be more common than thought, responding well to steroid treatment.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia and ulerythema ophryogenes as two entites that can transist one into another
Frontal fibrosing alopecia and ulerythema ophryogenes may be related and can evolve from one to the other.
research Primary scarring alopecias. A literature review
Early and accurate identification of primary scarring alopecias is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss.
research Secondary Cicatricial and other Permanent Alopecias
The document concludes that permanent hair loss conditions are complex, require early specific treatments, and "secondary permanent alopecias" might be a more accurate term than "secondary cicatricial alopecia."
