Airway Hyperresponsiveness In Asthma Is Mainly Driven By Components Of Type 2 Inflammation
Examine underlying type 2 inflammation as a driver of airway hyperresponsiveness in patients with asthma.
Pediatric Asthma Trajectory and Clinical Remission
Join Dr. Leonard Bacharier as he discusses the definition of clinical remission in pediatric asthma and how it can represent a potential target in pediatric asthma management.
Mucus Plugging as a Potential Target in Asthma Management
Join Dr. Celeste Porsbjerg as she explores the mechanisms underlying mucus plugging development as mucociliary clearance. She explains how type 2 cytokines—particularly IL-13—impair this clearance mechanism, leading to mucus plugging, and worsened asthma outcomes.
Unraveling the Link of Type 2 Inflammation and Airway Remodeling in Asthma
Join Dr. Celeste Porsbjerg as she discussed on how type 2 inflammation may lead to airway remodeling in asthma, exploring the pathophysiologic mechanisms, that ultimately lead to structural changes and irreversible loss of lung function
Monitoring Lung Function Is an Important Aspect of Pediatric Asthma Management
Navigate through this interactive infographic to learn more about why lung function is important to monitor in pediatric patients with asthma and the noninvasive procedures that are available for implementation in clinical practice.
Multifaceted Role of IL-13 in Airway Remodeling
Join Dr. Celeste Porsbjerg as she discusses on how IL-13 contributes to mucus plugging in asthma.
Adult Asthma Interactive Patient Cases
Explore 3 hypothetical patient cases using guideline-based checklists for assessment and diagnosis of type 2 inflammation in adult asthma
Pediatric Asthma Patient Case Tool: Ash
Review a patient case to learn more about identifying uncontrolled asthma and type 2 inflammation in pediatric patients
EAACI 2024 | On-Treatment Clinical Remission in Upper and Lower Airways: Going Beyond Symptom Control
Join experts G. Walter Canonica, Vibeke Backer, and Joaquim Mullol for an educational symposium on elevating treatment goals from control to remission in the upper and lower airways.
ERS 2024 | Airway Remodeling: A Permanent or Transitory Consequence in Severe Asthma Patients?
Join Klaus Rabe, MD, PhD, FERS; Celeste Porsberg, MD, PhD; and Mario Castro, MD, MPH, for a symposium on airway remodeling in severe asthma patients.
Type 2 Asthma Learning Hub
Type 2 asthma is a common phenotype of asthma, characterized by key cytokines IL-4, IL-13, and IL-5, as well as elevated type 2 inflammatory biomarkers as FeNO, and eosinophils, or the need for maintenance OCS. Type 2 inflammation is evident in up to 88% of patients with severe asthma, representing a substantial portion of the disease burden associated with asthma. Explore the resources below better understand the role of type 2 inflammation in asthma.
Clinical Manifestations Associated With Airway Remodeling in Asthma
Join Dr. Hanania to understand how to identify patients at risk of fixed airway obstruction in clinical settings.
