Correlation of clinical and trichoscopy features with the degree of histologic inflammation in lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia in a cross-sectional study
To The Editor: Follow-up assessment of primary cicatricial alopecia inflammatory activity is a major challenge in clinical practice. Symptoms, signs, clinical extent of involvement, and pull tests are used to assess the disease activity of lichen planopilaris (LPP) and frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) in different scores such as LPPAI, FFASI, FFASS, and ALODEXFFA.1-4 However, many of these scoring systems rely on clinical parameters without trichoscopic or histopathologic correlation.

Residency program unionization status and benefits: A national cross-sectional analysis of institutions with dermatology residencies
To the Editor: Since the COVID-19 pandemic, national debate and momentum regarding resident physician unionization have increased, with over 15% of US house staff across 60 hospital systems unionized by mid-2022.1,2 Unionization offers trainees leverage in negotiating compensation and benefits, though the impact on resident education, trainee wellbeing, and program cultures remains undercharacterized.3 The prevalence of unionization among dermatology residents —largely based in university medical centers—has not been formally explored to date.
