Articles on Alopecia published 24 November 2010:

Iron deficiency in female pattern hair loss, chronic telogen effluvium, and control groups.   J Am Acad Dermatol, 63(6): 991-9.

[Abstract] [Full-text]

Commentary: Iron deficiency and hair loss: problems with measurement of iron.   J Am Acad Dermatol, 63(6): 1077-82.

Iron is involved in many critical physiologic processes within the hair follicle, suggesting that iron deficiency could disrupt hair synthesis. However, studies of iron as a cause of hair loss have produced conflicting results. Some of the discrepancies may relate to limitations of assays for iron deficiency. This commentary discusses the sensitivity and specificity of available tests for iron deficiency and presents practical guidelines for testing and supplementation. [Abstract] [Full-text]
