Abstract in brief

  • This systematic review and meta-analysis examined how androgenetic alopecia (AGA) impacts patients' health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and mental health, finding that AGA is associated with emotional distress and moderate impairment in quality of life.
  • The study included data from 41 research papers with nearly 8,000 patients, revealing that AGA leads to emotional issues but not necessarily depression, and that factors like being married or undergoing treatment can influence HRQOL.
  • Methodologically, the review used rigorous guidelines and statistical analysis to pool data across diverse studies, applying tools like PRISMA and ROBINS-I to assess bias, and conducted subgroup analyses based on sex and geographic regions.
