research Fortnightly review: Male pattern androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss in men is common, treatable, but not curable.
research Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss treated with minoxidil, finasteride, laser/light, hair transplant, and scalp prostheses; more research needed for skin of color.
research CHRONIC TELOGEN EFFLUVIUM
Chronic Telogen Effluvium is a hair loss condition in middle-aged women that usually doesn't lead to complete baldness.
research Scalp Dermatoscopic Findings in Androgenetic Alopecia and Their Relations with Disease Severity
Scalp dermatoscopy helps diagnose and monitor hair loss severity.
research Platelet Rich Plasma in Androgenetic Alopecia- A Prospective Study
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) treatment effectively reduces hair fall and increases hair growth in patients with Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA), but it may cause pain.
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 Clinical Approach to the Patient With Alopecia
Most hair loss disorders can be accurately diagnosed and treated in an outpatient setting.
research A study of serial vertical sectioning of scalp biopsies to increase the histological diagnostic yield in alopecias
Cutting scalp biopsies in consecutive slices improves diagnosis of hair loss conditions.
research Androgens and alopecia
Male hormones, particularly DHT, are linked to male pattern hair loss, and treatments like finasteride can help, but they don't work for postmenopausal women's hair loss, which may have different causes.
research Alopecia areata
Alopecia areata causes hair loss, has no cure, and various treatments exist.
research New investigational drugs for androgenetic alopecia
Possible new treatments for common hair loss include drugs, stem cells, and improved transplants.
research A randomized, double-blind controlled study of the efficacy and safety of topical solution of 0.25% finasteride admixed with 3% minoxidil vs. 3% minoxidil solution in the treatment of male androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride and minoxidil mix works better for hair growth than minoxidil alone, with similar safety.
research The endocrinology of baldness
Hormones and genetics play key roles in male and female baldness, which can affect mental health and may be linked to other health issues.
research Efficacy of platelet-rich plasma in androgenetic alopecia patients
PRP therapy safely improves hair growth in people with hair loss.
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 Comparative Analysis of Trichoscopic Features in Women with Androgenetic Alopecia and Telogen Effluvium
FAGA shows varied hair thickness, while TE has more empty follicles.
research In This Issue
Advancements in hair biology include new treatments and tools for hair growth and alopecia.
research Pathologic Diagnosis of Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia on Horizontal Sections
Horizontal sections of scalp biopsies are good for diagnosing Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia and help customize treatment.
research Clinical presentations of alopecia areata
Alopecia areata causes varying hair loss patterns, affecting hair, nails, and possibly glands, with treatment outcomes depending on disease duration and extent.
research Proposed mechanisms of low-level light therapy in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia

Alopecia is caused by various factors, and new treatments like gene editing and regenerative medicine offer hope for personalized hair regrowth solutions.
research Diagnostic accuracy measures for vertical and transverse scalp biopsies in cicatricial and non-cicatricial alopecias
Transverse scalp biopsies are more accurate for diagnosing non-cicatricial alopecia, but examining both types is best for accuracy.
research Copper Deficiency a New Reason of Androgenetic Alopecia?
Copper deficiency may cause hair loss, and treating it could involve nutrition and hormones.
research The logic of follicular unit transplantation
The document concludes that follicular unit transplantation offers more natural results and better graft survival than older hair transplant methods.
research Traction Alopecia
Tight hairstyles, especially on chemically treated hair, can cause reversible hair loss if caught early but may become permanent if not addressed.
research Prostaglandin D2-Mediated DP2 and AKT Signal Regulate the Activation of Androgen Receptors in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
