Assessment of Clinician-Reported Outcome Measures for Alopecia Areata: A Systematic Scoping Review.

Clinician-reported outcome measures (ClinROMs) are an important part of disease assessment in daily practice and clinical trials. There is a broad disagreement on the most appropriate ClinROM for a comprehensive assessment of alopecia areata (AA) severity. This paper aims to identify the currently available ClinROMs for AA through a systematic literature search, address their practical strengths and weaknesses, and identify the road ahead for future research.
