“…Some of these studies have also tried to correlate the observed dermoscopic features with disease activity (Chuh & Zawar, 2004; Dev et al, 2021; Errichetti et al, 2020; Jha et al, 2018; Kumar Jha et al, 2018; Nirmal et al, 2019; RuSong et al, 2009; Thatte & Khopkar, 2014; Wang et al, 2018). However, results were non‐homogenous and even contradictory, as far as association with disease activity/stability was concerned, and same dermoscopic features were being reported to be associated with both stable and progressive disease (Chuh & Zawar, 2004; Dev et al, 2021; Errichetti et al, 2020; Jha et al, 2018; Kumar Jha et al, 2018; Nirmal et al, 2019; RuSong et al, 2009; Thatte & Khopkar, 2014; Wang et al, 2018). This discrepancy was mainly due to retrospective and cross‐sectional nature of the studies and therefore a reliance on patient‐provided history to categorize the lesions as active or stable, thereby carry a degree of recall bias (Chuh & Zawar, 2004; Jha et al, 2018; Kumar Jha et al, 2018; Nirmal et al, 2019; RuSong et al, 2009; Thatte & Khopkar, 2014).…”
