Background: Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a nonscarring alopecia with increasing prevalence in pediatric populations. Published data in pediatrics are limited.
Objective: To perform a multicenter review of pediatric patients with AGA to study clinical presentation, comorbidities, and treatment recommendations.
Prenatal stress is a neuropsychiatric risk factor, and effects may be mediated by prenatal oxidative stress. Cell types in the brain sensitive to oxidative stress-cortical microglia and cortical and hippocampal interneurons-may be altered by oxidative stress generated during prenatal stress and may be neurobiological substrates for altered behavior. Our objective was to determine the critical nature of oxidative stress in prenatal stress effects by manipulating prenatal antioxidants.
