    Clinical factors and hair care practices influencing outcomes in central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
    (2023) Onamusi, Toluwalashe; Larrondo Gálvez, Jorge Felipe
    Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA) is the most common form of primary scarring alopecia in women of African descent, negatively impacting their quality of life. Treatment is often challenging, and we usually direct therapy to suppress and prevent the inflammation. However, factors affecting clinical outcomes are still unknown. To characterize medical features, concurrent medical conditions, hair care practices, and treatments used for patients with CCCA and assess their relationship with treatment outcomes. We analyzed data from a retrospective chart review of 100 patients diagnosed with CCCA who received treatment for at least one year. Treatment outcomes were compared with patient characteristics to determine any relationships. P-values were calculated using logistic regression and univariate analysis with 95% CI P < 0.05 was considered significant. After one year of treatment, 50% of patients were stable, 36% improved, and 14% worsened. Patients without a history of thyroid disease (P = 0.0422), using metformin for diabetes control (P = 0.0255), using hooded dryers (P = 0.0062), wearing natural hairstyles (P = 0.0103), and having no other physical signs besides cicatricial alopecia (P = 0.0228), had higher odds of improvement after treatment. Patients with scaling (P = 0.0095) or pustules (P = 0.0325) had higher odds of worsening. Patients with a history of thyroid disease (P = 0.0188), not using hooded dryers (0.0438), or not wearing natural hairstyles (P = 0.0098) had higher odds of remaining stable. Clinical characteristics, concurrent medical conditions, and hair care practices may affect clinical outcomes after treatment. With this information, providers can adjust proper therapies and evaluations for patients with Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.

    Clinical features and sex hormone profile in male patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia: A multicenter retrospective study with 33 patients
    (2022) Doche, Isabella; Nico, Maechello; Gerlero, Paula; Rebeis, Mariana; Melo, Daniel; Tortelly, Violeta; Ramos, Paulo; Larrondo Gálvez, Jorge Felipe; Mardones, Felipe; González, Martha L.; Tosti, Antonella; Rivitti-Machado, Maria Cecília
    Frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) is considered as a variant of lichen planopilaris with an unclear pathogenesis. First described in postmenopausal women, FFA has recently been reported in young men and women.1, 2, 3, 4, 5 The recent worldwide incidence of this disease, mainly among women, raises the possibility of hormonal disruption by endogenous or exogenous factors. This multicenter retrospective study aimed to describe the clinical features and sex hormone profile of men with FFA and no previous history of sex hormone disorders using a chart and image review from 2019 to 2021. All subjects were asked to have their hormone profiles prepared. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil.
