Article Synopsis
- Alopecia areata (AA) is an autoimmune skin condition, and the study investigated the combination of compound glycyrrhizin (CG) with topical minoxidil for treatment effectiveness.
- A systematic review of randomized controlled trials found that this combination significantly improved clinical outcomes and reduced specific inflammatory markers compared to minoxidil alone.
- The results showed no notable difference in adverse events between the two treatment methods, suggesting that the combination therapy is both effective and safe for patients with AA.
