600-630 / 1000+ resultsresearch Trichorrhexis nodosa. Clinical and investigative studies
Trichorrhexis nodosa is mainly caused by hair trauma, not a metabolic defect.
research Clinicopathological insights into the phenotypic variation of autosomal recessive hypotrichosis/wooly hair by c.736T>A LIPH mutation
