Emerging Perspectives on the Disease Burden and Management of Children with Atopic Dermatitis
Join Christine Bangert, Mark Boguniewicz and Perla Lansang for an educational symposium on atopic dermatitis (AD) in children, exploring the diagnosis and pathophysiology of AD in children, the life-long effects of uncontrolled disease beyond the skin, and current and emerging therapies.
CRSwNP at Center Stage: Impact of Biologics in Patients with Co-existing Type 2 Asthma
In this video soundbite from the EAACI 2025 symposium, Dr. Philippe Gevaert explains how biologic options for uncontrolled CRSwNP are increasing, and phase 3 studies of approved biologics show improved outcomes and decreased SCS use/surgery in patients with CRSwNP. Additionally, he explains how biologics targeting type 2 inflammatory pathophysiology potentially improve outcomes for eligible patients with co-existing CRSwNP and asthma.
How Biologic Therapy May Lead to Disease Modification in Infants and Children with Atopic Dermatitis
The underlying pathophysiology of atopic dermatitis (AD) is driven by dysregulation of type 2 immunity that contributes to skin barrier dysfunction. AD typically develops very early in life and children with AD often develop other atopic conditions such as food allergy, asthma, and allergic rhinitis in a progression called the atopic march. Early treatment may help reduce the atopic march and other comorbidities to lessen the lifetime burden created by these diseases. There may even be a window of opportunity for disease modification.
ERS-ISIAN 2025 | Type 2 Inflammation and Disease Control in CRSwNP: Current Perspectives and Future Directions
In this educational presentation, Profs. Vibeke Backer and Sietze Reitsma cover key aspects of type 2 inflammation and its role in the pathogenesis and management of CRSwNP and practical strategies for optimizing disease control and improving patient outcomes.
ADVENT On Air | Exploring The Urgency to Treat in Atopic Dermatitis
Professor Lisa Beck explores the chronic and persistent burden of atopic dermatitis (AD) as well as the concept of early intervention in patients with AD.
UEGW 2024 | Something to Chew On: Exploring Biologics in EoE Management
Prof. Salvatore Oliva and Dr. Milli Gupta discuss the importance of long-term care, multidimensional assessment, and the latest data for biologics.
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.
What Drives Chronic Itch and the Itch-Scratch Cycle in Atopic Dermatitis?
Watch this short video to learn how type 2 inflammation, skin barrier dysfunction, and neurosensitization contribute to chronic itch and the itch-scratch cycle in atopic dermatitis
Itch in Chronic Inflammatory Skin Diseases: Histaminergic and Nonhistaminergic Mechanisms and Role of IL-4 as a Central Orchestrator in Promoting Neuronal Sensitization
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr. Brian Kim explores the histaminergic and nonhistaminergic mechanisms of itch, highlighting how type 2 cytokines like IL-4 serve as central orchestrators of neuronal sensitization and immune–nervous system cross-talk.
In Chronic Pruritic Skin Diseases, the Neuroimmune Axis Involves Dynamic Interactions Between Type 2 Inflammation and Sensory Nerves
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr. Brian Kim describes the dynamic neuroimmune interactions in chronic pruritic skin diseases, emphasizing how type 2 cytokines and sensory nerves actively influence both itch perception and tissue inflammation.
KOL Video Interview – Dr Amy Paller
In this exclusive video interview, Dr Amy Paller discusses two topics: 1) The importance of CCL17 (TARC) as a biomarker in pediatric patients with AD, and 2) How IL-4 and IL-13 contribute to skin barrier dysfunction in AD.
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.
