Atopic Dermatitis in Children: Not Just a Skin Disease
In this video of the October 2024 ADVENT symposium at EAPS in Vienna, Austria, Dr Mark Boguniewicz discusses the multidimensional and cumulative disease burden of AD and its associated comorbidities in children. Dr Boguniewicz also highlights the burden experienced by caregivers of children with AD
Atopic Dermatitis and the Growing Evidence for Its Association with Various Non-Atopic Systemic Diseases
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Prof. Amy Paller reviews emerging evidence linking atopic dermatitis not only to atopic comorbidities but to a range of non-atopic systemic diseases, including mental health disorders, neurodevelopmental conditions and impaired bone health.
Type 2 Inflammation and Its Role in Atopic Dermatitis
In this video of the October 2024 ADVENT symposium at EAPS in Vienna, Austria, Dr Christine Bangert reviews the epidemiology, clinical presentation, and differential diagnoses of AD in children, as well as the inflammatory processes driven by type 2 cytokines that lead to AD and its atopic comorbidities
ADVENT at EAPS 2024
The ADVENT program will present a symposium to discuss diagnosis, pathophysiology, comorbidities of atopic dermatitis in children, as well as emerging treatment options for management of atopic dermatitis (AD) in children, who are candidates for systemic therapy at the 2024 European Academy of Paediatric Societies (EAPS) Congress.
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.
