    Abstract There is more than one way to manage hair loss surgically. Apart from hair transplantation, there are other techniques which have been used by many to treat baldness. This article attempts to review the surgical methodology and philosophy that have acted as guiding lights in the approach to surgical treatment of baldness over the years and reviews the current role of other techniques in the armamentarium of hair restoration surgeons today.

    Abstract Introduction Patients with androgenetic alopecia (AGA), who use alcohol-based topical minoxidil solutions, frequently experience localized irritation, dryness, and scalp redness. In this study, we compared the safety and effectiveness of topical 5% cetosomal minoxidil solution to those of topical 5% alcohol-based minoxidil solution in Indian men with AGA. Methods In this randomized, open-label study, male patients with AGA were randomized 1:1 to receive either solutions twice daily for 16 weeks. Efficacy endpoints included changes in basic and specific (BASP) grading, improvement in the trichoscopy score, and global photography at week 16 from baseline, whereas safety was evaluated by adverse events reported by patients and hair-related quality of life (QoL) using the Hairdex-29 questionnaire. Results Of the 80 patients, only 40 completed the study and were considered for complete analysis. Twelve out of 23 patients (52%) in the cetosomal minoxidil group and four out of 17 patients (24%) in the alcohol-based minoxidil group showed a positive increase in hair growth according to the trichoscopy score (p=0.1). According to the BASP grading system, nine patients (39%) and five patients (29%) in the cetosomal and alcohol-based minoxidil groups, respectively, showed improvement (p=0.73). Similarly, 19 (83%) and 10 (59%) patients in the cetosomal and alcohol-based minoxidil groups, respectively, reported positive hair growth on the global photography assessment (p=0.15). All the patients tolerated the treatment well, with no discontinuation in either group. There were four adverse events in the cetosomal minoxidil group, reported by two (9%) patients, whereas in the alcohol-based minoxidil group, 10 adverse events were reported by seven (41%) patients (p=0.02). In addition, the mean Hairdex-29 score of 40.26±4.71 at baseline improved to 32.32±3.35 in the cetosomal group, whereas it improved to 34.64±3.41 from 39.64±4.98 in the other group (p=0.03). Conclusions The 5% cetosomal minoxidil group showed improved safety but similar efficacy when administered twice daily. Therefore, cetosomal minoxidil may be a better option for treating AGA in males who are sensitive or nontolerant to alcoholic formulations.

    Abstract In 2021 an estimated 74 million individuals had diabetes in India, almost all type 2 diabetes. More than half of patients with diabetes are estimated to be undiagnosed and more 90% have dyslipidemia that is associated with accelerated development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Patients of Indian descent with diabetes have multiple features that distinguish them from patients with diabetes in Western populations. These include characteristics such as earlier age of onset, higher frequency of features of the metabolic syndrome, more prevalent risk factors for ASCVD, and more aggressive course of ASCVD complications. In light of the unique features of diabetes and diabetic dyslipidemia in individuals of Indian descent, the Lipid Association of India developed this expert consensus statement to provide guidance for management of diabetic dyslipidemia in this very high risk population. The recommendations contained herein are the outgrowth of a series of 165 webinars conducted by the Lipid Association of India across the country from May 2020 to July 2021, involving 155 experts in endocrinology and cardiology and an additional 2880 physicians.

    Abstract The field of hair transplant (HT) has grown exponentially in the past decade, especially after the introduction of follicular unit excision (FUE). There is much variation in criteria for case selection, the technique, pre- and post-procedure protocols, by different surgeons. Techniques continue to evolve and evidence in the form of controlled data is not available for all techniques and protocols being used; there is also a debate as to who can do what, what should be the training for staff, role of technicians. This has led to a situation wherein medico legal issues have cropped up as to what is minimum acceptable. An attempt is made to summarize standard protocols with the available evidence. It is emphasized that the objective of these guidelines is to recommend minimum standards for practice of hair transplantation. The principles outlined in these guidelines are of a general nature only, minimal in their level and are not meant to cover all situations. It should be understood that these recommendations are by no means binding and universal, represent minimum standards only and as in all surgical techniques, variations in techniques are possible. It is also further clarified that these are based on current literature, and as science evolves, these guidelines could also change in future. Where published evidence is not available, consensus expert opinion is presented. The task force emphasizes that each patient has to be treated on his/her own merit and that these guidelines do not limit the physician from making an appropriate choice or the necessary innovation for a given patient. The task force recognizes that the treating surgeon is best suited to decide what is needed for a given patient in a given situation. Innovations in medicine need flexibility in approach and these guidelines do not limit the surgeon from undertaking innovative research.
