The PEDISTAD Survey: Assessing the Burden of Atopic Dermatitis in the Global Pediatric Population
An interactive tool used to explore the global burden of atopic dermatitis in children and adolescents.
Explore the Global Burden of Pediatric AD (PEDISTAD)
This interactive tool allows you to explore the global burden of AD in pediatric patients <12 years from the PEDISTAD Study.
Emerging Perspectives on the Disease Burden and Management of Children With Atopic Dermatitis
This video of the October 2024 ADVENT symposium at EAPS in Vienna, Austria features Drs Christine Bangert, Mark Boguniewicz, and Perla Lansang as they discuss the inflammatory processes driven by type 2 cytokines that lead to AD and atopic comorbidities, the multidimensional and cumulative disease burden associated with AD and its comorbidities, and the current and emerging treatment options for children with AD uncontrolled with topical therapy
The Benefits of Early Intervention in AD: More Than Skin Deep
Many AD treatment goals focus on clinical manifestations, so that if a patient is free of lesions, their disease is considered well controlled. However, the inflammatory process underlying AD reaches far beyond the skin, affecting patients in unique ways at different stages of their lives. Education on the importance of treating AD beyond the skin and altering the treatment approach to fit the individual patient will help improve clinical management and reduce long-term patient burden.
Beyond the Visible: The Cumulative Burden of Prurigo Nodularis
Professor Matthias Augustin emphaizes that prurigo nodularis is a chronic systemic disease with a significant and multifaceted burden, encompassing both visible skin manifestations and hidden psychosocial and physical comorbidities.
What Could Remission Mean in AD?
Dr. Simpson explores the concept of remission in AD, focusing on minimal disease activity and long-term remission, discussing how disease modification in AD can impact the course of the disease and its associated comorbidities.
Systemic Inflammation in AD – Beyond the Skin
In this highlight video from the May 2024 ADVENT symposium at ESPD’s Annual Meeting in Košice, Slovakia, Dr. Lisa Weibel presents how systemic inflammation affects organ systems beyond the skin, and could potentially manifest as atopic and non-atopic comorbidities.
European Society for Pediatric Dermatology (ESPD) 2024 | Košice, Slovakia
Inflammatory processes drive AD both within and beyond the skin, leading to significant, cumulative life impacts. Early intervention has the potential to mitigate these impacts by altering the disease course.
ADVENT at WCPD 2025
The ADVENT symposium at the 15th World Congress of Pediatric Dermatology (WCPD) will focus on discussions around disease modification in atopic dermatitis (AD) in three main topic areas: restoring the skin barrier, reducing non-atopic comorbidities, and stopping the atopic march in pediatric patients with AD aged 6 months to 11 years.
The Importance of Early Intervention and the Potential for Disease Modification in Patients With AD
This video from the September 2024 ADVENT symposium at EADV’s Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, features Dr. Eric Simpson discussing the concept of disease modification and the benefits of early intervention when treating patients with AD. Dr. Simpson also reviews available data investigating the impacts of therapies for AD on the disease itself and on associated comorbidities.
Early Intervention and the Potential for Disease Modification in Children With AD
This video from the May 2024 ADVENT symposium at ESPD’s Annual Meeting in Košice, Slovakia features Dr. Amy Paller discussing the benefits of early intervention for children with AD and the potential for disease modification. Dr. Paller also reviews available data investigating the impacts of therapies for AD on the disease itself and on associated comorbidities.
Charting the Future: Preventing the Atopic March
In this video from the April 2025 WCPD symposium, Dr Eulàlia Baselga discusses how early intervention during infancy and childhood in patients with AD may reduce the progression of the atopic march. Dr Baselga goes on to review data showing how the reduction of biomarkers such as IgE and CCL17 may reduce inflammation and sensitization that contribute to atopic comorbidities.
