Filter by:Alopecia areata (AA) an autoimmune disorder of hair follicles results in varying degrees of scalp, facial and body hair loss. Clinically, patients' presentation varies from patchy circumscribed scalp involvement to total body and scalp hair loss affects up to 2% of the general population. The exact pathobiology of AA has still remained elusive, while the common theory is the collapse of the immune privilege of the hair follicle caused by immunological mechanism. Multiple genetic, environment factors and psychological stress contribute to the pathogenesis of Alopecia Areata . Recent insights into the pathogenesis of AA have led to the development of new treatment strategies, such as Janus kinase inhibitors, biologics and several small molecular agents. In addition, modern therapies for AA, including antihistamines, platelet-rich plasma injection
Androgenetic alopecia is a common condition affects both genders. Patients of androgenetic alopecia following inclusion criteria will be enrolled after ethical approval and informed consent. Pre-treatment assessment will be done by Physian Global assessment, Patient global assessment and hair density by trichoscopy of areas under treatment. Patients will be categorized in 2 groups. Group A receiving exosomes 1session intradermally in scalp after nerve block and group B receiving PRP 2 sessions of PRP 1 month apart intradermally in scalp after nerve block. Patients will receive exosomes at strength of 2 to 10 billion particles/5ml with 0.1 ml/cm2. Follow up will be done after 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 5 months and 6 months of completion of treatment to assess hair growth and reduce hair fall by Physian Global assessment (PGA), Patient global assessment (PtGA) and trichography. Clinical response will be graded as satisfactory (< 25%), good (25-50%) or excellent (> 50%) improvement. Details will be entered on predesigned proforma. Data will be entered and analyzed using SPSS 27. Means will be calculated for quantitative variables, frequencies for qualitative variables like pre- and post treatment response. Data will be stratified for role of effect modifiers
Laser sources have established their potential effect in inducing hair regrowth. No study has compared the effect of ablative fractional 2940-nm erbium yttrium aluminum garnet (Er: YAG) laser and non-fractional 15650nm fractional laser in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia (AGA).
Microneedling and autologous concentrated growth factor (CGF) have established their potential effect in inducing hair regrowth. No study has compared the effect of microneedling and CGF in the treatment of female androgenetic alopecia (AGA).
The purpose of this post-market, prospective study is to assess the ability of AMMA to prevent hair loss in women receiving chemotherapy (CT) for early-stage breast cancer.
The goal of this study is to study the efficacy and safety of Tofacitinib therapy in Thai patients with recalcitrant frontal fibrosing alopecia. The main questions are 1. Does Tofacitinib significantly reduce Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia Severity Index (FFASI), Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia Severity Score (FFASS), Lichen planopillaris Activity Index (LPPAI) compared to baseline and after 16 weeks? 2. Is Tofacitinib significantly different for adverse events compared to baseline and after 16 weeks? Participants will have a check-up in clinical and investigation and then get prescribed oral Tofacitinib 5 mg twice a day for 12 weeks. After that, they will have follow-up every 4 weeks until week 16.
Purpose of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will be to evaluate whether the daily use of novel dietary supplements over 24 weeks is able strengthen and promote growth of hairs, improve their density and thickness and reduce hair loss in adults with self-perceived thinning hair.
This clinical trial was conducted at the Dermatology department of Services hospital Lahore. Patients of extensive and treatment resistant Alopecia areata were enrolled after ethical approval and informed consent by non-probability consecutive sampling. Inclusion criteria: Treatment with oral tofacitinib citrate was initiated at 5 mg twice daily for six months. Scalp hair loss was calculated at 4, 12 and 24 weeks using the validated Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) score, which ranges from 0% to 100%. Regrowth rate: (initial SALT score - final SALT score)/(initial SALT score) × 100 was noted. Response time (time from initiation of treatment to any sign of hair regrowth) was noted. DLQI of patients before and after treatment were noted. Side effects were noted. Pre- and post-treatment photographs were taken. Patients were followed up for another 6 months to look for relapse. Data were entered and analyzed using SPSS 20. Means were calculated for quantitative variables, frequencies for qualitative data. Data were stratified for the role of effect modifiers.
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the 308-nm excimer lamp in resistant AA treated with topical minoxidil .
The purpose of this study is to assess how an oral herbal supplement influences hair density, shine, growth, and microbiome.
