Digging Deeper: Reducing Non-Atopic Comorbidities and Multidimensional Disease Burden
In this video from the April 2025 WCPD symposium, Dr Paula Luna discusses the multidimensional disease burden in pediatric patients with AD and the data regarding how early intervention may lead to long-term disease control and a reduced risk of developing non-atopic comorbidities.
Prevalence of Food Allergy and Other Atopic Comorbidities in Children With AD
In this highlight video from the October 2024 ADVENT symposium at EAPS in Vienna, Austria, Dr Mark Boguniewicz discusses the prevalence of food sensitization and food allergy in pediatric patients with AD, clarifying the difference between the two. Dr Boguniewicz also discusses the prevalence of other atopic comorbidities in children with AD
Bullous Pemphigoid (BP): Don't Miss the Diagnosis
This static infographic covers the clinical presentations, diagnostic challenges, and disease burden of bullous pemphigoid (BP), a chronic relapsing autoimmune skin disease. Review the steps of diagnosis, which include clinical assessment and laboratory work. Explore comorbidities associated with BP and how they impact patient quality of life.
The Patient's Path: Unraveling the Diagnosis and Burden of Bullous Pemphigoid
Follow Janet, a hypothetical patient, as she navigates the difficult journey of bullous pemphigoid, starting with symptom onset to diagnosis.
The Role of Type 2 Inflammation in Multiple Disease Trajectories
How type 2 inflammation drives atopic dermatitis and underlies other atopic diseases across multiple disease trajectories including the atopic march.
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 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.
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.
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.
Diving Below the Surface of AD: The Role of Type 2 Inflammation
This video from the September 2024 ADVENT symposium at EADV’s Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, features Dr. Stephan Weidinger discussing how local type 2 inflammation at the skin tissue level contributes to epidermal barrier dysfunction, dysbiosis, and neuroimmune dysfunction, leading to the clinical signs and symptoms of AD. Dr. Weidinger also reviews how systemic inflammation affects organ systems beyond the skin and can manifest as atopic and non-atopic comorbidities.
