Key Pathophysiological Mechanisms of Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria Are Driven by Type 2 Inflammation
Join Dr. Jason Hawkes as he explains the importance of type 2 inflammation in chronic spontaneous urticaria.
Cracking the Code: Diagnosing and Managing Skin Diseases With Type 2 Inflammation
This symposium delves into the pivotal role of type 2 inflammation in diverse skin conditions, including atopic dermatitis, prurigo nodularis, chronic spontaneous urticaria, and bullous pemphigoid. It highlights both shared and distinct disease mechanisms and patient burdens, providing crucial insights for optimizing clinical management strategies through a series of engaging panel discussions with Drs Eichenfield, Elmariah, Culton, and Hawkes.
Inside the Hive: Type 2 Inflammatory Pathways in Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria
Join Dr. Jason Hawkes in discussing the burden of CSU and how type 2 inflammation contributes to the development of chronic wheals (hives) and angioedema
Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria Mechanism of Disease Animation
Explore the clinical presentation and pathophysiology of chronic spontaneous urticaria in this animated video. Learn about the complex mechanism of disease involving mast cell activation and the release of inflammatory mediators.
Exploring the Potential Disease-Modifying Approaches in AD
Explore the concept of disease modification in atopic dermatitis through this interactive infographic, which highlights potential considerations such as optimal sustained disease control, subclinical inflammation, the pathophysiology of AD, and atopic/non-atopic comorbidities.
ADVENT On Air | Charting a New Course: The Frontier of Early Intervention and Disease Modification in AD
Join Drs. April Armstrong and Lisa Beck for a conversation around the long-term burden and effects of AD. They will discuss the underlying pathophysiology of AD and how early intervention and disease modification may impact disease course.
On the Surface: Restoring the Skin Barrier in Patients With AD
In this video from the April 2025 WCPD symposium, Dr Amy Paller discusses the pathophysiology of skin barrier dysfunction in AD and how regulating IL-4 and IL-13 signaling may lead to restoration of the skin barrier. Dr Paller goes on to explore how reducing certain biomarkers, such as CCL17 (TARC), may reduce inflammation that contributes to AD severity in pediatric patients.
The Benefits of Early Intervention in Reducing the Burden of Disease in Children With Atopic Dermatitis
This page presents educational material, infographics, and video highlights from our recent ADVENT symposia, including the 2025 World Congress of Pediatric Dermatology (WCPD) in Buenos Aires, Argentina, exploring the pathophysiology of type 2 inflammation and atopic dermatitis, the burden of disease leading to cumulative life course impairment (CLCI), and the risk of the atopic march in pediatric patients with atopic dermatitis.
The Role of IL-4 and IL-13 in CSU Pathogenesis
Dive into the complex pathophysiology of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), where mast cell degranulation drives the hallmark signs and symptoms. This interactive infographic elucidates how key type 2 cytokines, specifically IL-4 and IL-13, contribute to mast cell activation, immune cell trafficking into the skin, and neuronal sensitization in CSU, which ultimately leads to the release of mediators like histamine that cause wheals, angioedema, and itch.
