Interplay of Barrier Dysfunction and Type 2 Inflammation in EoE
Learn from Prof. Seema Aceves about the interconnectivity of type 2 inflammation and barrier dysfunction in mediating EoE pathophysiology.
Eosinophils: A Biomarker in COPD
Learn how to identify chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with type 2 inflammation using blood eosinophil (EOS) levels, understand the associated risks, and recognize factors that may influence EOS counts.
Decoding Chronic Itch and More in PN: Implications of Real-World Data for Clinical Practice
This symposium highlights type 2 inflammation as a key driver of chronic itch and the characteristic skin lesions of prurigo nodularis and evaluates the real-world implications of targeted therapies on clinical practice.
Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) Pediatric Interactive Patient Case
Experience a pediatric patient's journey from infancy to adolescence with guideline-based learnings on EoE diagnosis, treatment, and long-term care.
Cumulative Impact of Uncontrolled Atopic Dermatitis: Skin Inflammation as the Tip of the Iceberg
Prof Jean-David Bouaziz describes the multifaceted burden of atopic dermatitis, beyond what can be seen on the skin, at EADV 2025.
Complex EoE Pathophysiology Beyond Esophageal Eosinophilia
Dr. Jonathan Spergel and Prof. Arjan Bredenoord highlight the importance of different immune cells in type 2 inflammation in EoE.
ERS-ISIAN 2025 | Treatable Traits in CRSwNP
Join Prof. Sietze Reitsma for an insightful presentation that will delve into identifying and leveraging key characteristics to optimize patient management and treatment outcomes.
CRSwNP Interactive Patient Case Tool
Meet Fernando. Journey through his clinical profile, applying guideline-based checklists to reach a consensus regarding his diagnosis.
More Than Eosinophils: A Closer Look at the Pathophysiology of EoE
Join Prof. Kathryn Peterson for an expert review on how different immune cells and inflammatory mediators contribute to the pathogenesis of EoE.
What Went Wrong? How Dysregulated Type 2 Immunity Contributes to AD, PN, CSU, and BP
The March 2025 ADVENT symposium in Orlando, Florida brought together 4 dermatology experts to explore the evolving science of type 2 inflammation. Type 2 inflammation plays a central role in the pathophysiology of multiple dermatological diseases, driving chronic immune dysregulation that affects patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) prurigo nodularis (PN), chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) and bullous pemphigoid (BP). Understanding the mechanisms behind type 2 inflammation is key to advancing care and improving patient quality of life.
Spotlight on Type 2 Inflammation in the Upper and Lower Airways
In this video soundbite from the EAACI 2025 symposium, Dr. Zuzana Diamant explains pathophysiological mechanisms underlying asthma and CRSwNP, and how type 2 inflammatory cytokines drive airway remodelling in patients with severe asthma. Additionally, patients with co-existing asthma and CRSwNP have a higher type 2 inflammatory burden than patients with asthma alone.
