In this episode, Dr. Sarina Elmariah and Dr. Brian Kim explore prurigo nodularis (PN), with a focus on severe itch, fibrotic skin lesions, and their impact on patients’ quality of life. They discuss PN epidemiology, common comorbidities, and the challenges of managing multimorbid patients, while breaking down the neuroimmune mechanisms, highlighting the role of type 2 cytokines in itch and lesion development.

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

Dr. Casale discusses the critical role of barrier disruption in atopic dermatitis

This video presentation of the May 2024 ADVENT symposium at ESPD’s Annual Meeting in Košice, Slovakia features Dr. Eulàlia Baselga, Dr. Amy Paller, and Prof. Lisa Weibel. The faculty investigate the inflammatory processes driven by type 2 cytokines that lead to the local and systemic clinical effects of AD, the potential benefits of treating children with AD early in the disease course, and the emerging clinical and real-world data on the use of advanced systemic treatments for children with AD.

This video presentation of the September 2024 ADVENT symposium at EADV’s Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands features Dr. Stephan Weidinger, Dr. Eric Simpson, and Dr. Marjolein de Bruin-Weller. The faculty investigate the inflammatory processes driven by type 2 cytokines that lead to the local and systemic clinical effects of AD, the potential benefits of treating patients with AD early in the disease course, and the emerging real-world data on the use of advanced systemic therapies for patients with AD.
Examine underlying type 2 inflammation as a driver of airway hyperresponsiveness in patients with asthma.
Professor Sarina Elmariah highlights the multifaceted role of IL-4 and IL-13 in driving dermal fibrosis in prurigo nodularis, which leads to persistent scarring and dyspigmentation that significantly contribute to patients' embarrassment, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem.

Join Dr. Shawn Kwatra in discussing the diverse clinical presentations of PN and the role of type 2 inflammation in disease pathogenesis.

Dr. Leonard Bacharier discusses how type 2 inflammation underlies the pathophysiology of pediatric severe asthma and contributes to burden.

Explore the role of chronic type 2 inflammation in the cycle of exacerbations and worsening lung function in patients with asthma.
Learn from Prof. Seema Aceves about the interconnectivity of type 2 inflammation and barrier dysfunction in mediating EoE pathophysiology.

Drs Stephanie Christenson and Jean Bourbeau explore the role of type 2 inflammation in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
