Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Non-scarring hair loss
Patients seen at Northwestern Memorial Hospital or Northwestern Medical Faculty Foundation physician offices that have undergone evaluation for hair loss and have a diagnosis of androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium or alopecia areata.
No interventions assigned to this group
Control
Age-matched controls who do not have a history of hair loss and have normal scalp skin without evidence of hair loss.
No interventions assigned to this group
