research Comparison of Novel Hematological Biomarkers in Alopecia Areata and Other Non-Cicatricial Alopecia: A Retrospective Study
Blood cell counts could help predict and treat alopecia areata and telogen effluvium.
research Evaluation of Serum Inflammatory Markers and Their Relationship to Treatment Response in Alopecia Areata Patients
SII is a useful and affordable tool to assess and monitor alopecia areata.
research Systemic Inflammatory Biomarkers In Alopecia Areata: The Role Of SII, SIRI, And CRP/Albumin Ratio
Alopecia areata patients have higher systemic inflammation, even in mild cases.
research Association Between Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index and Fecal Incontinence in Individuals with Stroke: Mediating Roles of Systemic Immune Inflammation Index and Oxidative Balance Scores
Better nutrition may reduce fecal incontinence in stroke patients by lowering inflammation and improving antioxidant levels.
research Complete Blood Collection-Based Systemic Inflammation Biomarkers as a Severity Biomarker in Alopecia Areata: A Cross-Sectional Study
This study investigated the relationship between systemic inflammation biomarkers and the severity of alopecia areata (AA) in 302 AA patients compared to 296 healthy controls. The study found that AA patients had higher levels of neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), systemic immune inflammation index (SII), and white blood cell/lymphocyte ratio (WLR) than healthy controls. Additionally, platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and SII were significantly higher in patients with severe AA compared to those with mild-to-moderate AA. The risk of severe AA increased with higher levels of PLR, SII, NLR, and WLR, indicating a strong link between systemic inflammation and the severity of AA.

Increased Malassezia and Cutibacterium in the scalp microbiome are linked to higher sebum production and inflammation in androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Treatments include ciclopirox shampoo, benzoyl peroxide shampoo, clobetasol propionate, calcipotriol, minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride.
community My Theory Regarding a Cause and Cure for Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss theory suggests imbalance between Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) and Androgen Receptor (AR) activation. Proposed treatment includes upregulating VDR, downregulating AR, and improving mitochondrial health.
community Regrowth with only Nizoral and Lifestyle Changes; focusing on scalp health & nervous system
The user reported subtle hair regrowth by focusing on scalp health and lifestyle changes, using Nizoral shampoo and methods to reduce inflammation and cortisol, without using finasteride, minoxidil, or other common treatments. Opinions in the conversation varied, with some skeptical of the results and others acknowledging the potential benefits of addressing scalp health and inflammation.

1 year ago Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.
community It's crazy how it's 2018 and the only hair loss treatments we have feature undesirable side effects and/or aren't even effective for many people.
Hair loss treatments, including minoxidil, dermarolling, finasteride, dutasteride, hair transplants, hair systems, and shaving the head. The conversation covers various opinions on these treatments and mentions possible side effects as well as alternatives like wigs, vitamins, and lifestyle changes. The post expresses disappointment that there has been no major breakthrough in the field of hair loss treatments despite decades of research.
