Objectives: To assess Trichogenic effect LLLT combined with PRP AGA. Patients methods: Forty seven patients AGAwere subjected to plus LLLT, affected area all were treated for three months then follow up another months. ...

Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a disorder that involves gradual loss of hair in genetically predisposed individuals and is more prominent in men than women. Ethnically, white male are affected the most [1]; the estimated prevalence of AGA in Caucasian populations by the age of 80 is over 90% [2]. Physiological changes which occur during AGA include hair follicle miniaturization and variations i...

Alopecia areata (AAR) and androgenetic alopecia (AGA) are two major forms of alopecia based on altered hair growth condition. In general, the cell cycle is regulated by several mechanisms including the stem cell factor/c-kit signaling. To assess a role for stem cell activity in alopecia, we performed histopathological, immunohistochemical, and semiquantitative analyses of c-kit as well as Ki-67...

Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a hair loss disorder affecting 80% of men and 50% of women throughout their lifetime. Therapies for AGA are limited and there is no cure. There is a high demand for hair restoration. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a treatment modality shown to promote wound healing, has also been explored as a treatment for AGA. This literature review was conducted to assess the effe...

METHODS Case-control study performed between June 2011 and June 2012. Forty-nine AGA fetuses, 40 SGA fetuses, and 35 IUGR fetuses underwent...

BACKGROUND Due to underlying autoimmune background of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), the possible role of infectious agents cytomegalovirus (CMV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and also due to association of anti-ganglioside antibodies with GBS, the present study aimed to investigate the associations between serum anti-ganglioside antibodies (AGA) level, type of infection and electrodiagnostic (E...

Male pattern androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is associated with oxidative stress.    Ischemia modified albumin (IMA) due to modification caused by reactive oxygen species which occur during ischemia.to evaluate IMA levels in AGA patients and compare their healthy control. The four study groups were group (A) included thirty obese AGA, (B) non-obese (C) ten normal volunteer (D) non volunteer. severi...

Ketoconazole (KCZ), an imidazole anti-fungal agent, is known to be effective for the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis and dandruff. In addition, 2% KCZ shampoo was found to improve hair density and the size and proportion of anagen follicles in androgenetic alopecia (AGA) [1] and, in combination with finasteride, to have an additive effect for AGA [2]. Recently, it has been reported that topi...
