COPD and Asthma: What's the Difference and Is There a Link?
Explore the characteristics of COPD and asthma, focusing on their shared inflammatory mechanisms and key clinical differences.
Identifying BP: How do symptoms of BP and their severity alter patient diagnosis?
Dr. Victoria Werth explains how diagnosing BP can pose many difficulties in patients due to the variation of symptoms and symptom severity. Dr. Werth also discusses what burden and challenges BP patients might expect as a result.
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.
How the Understanding of PN has Evolved?
Dr Kwatra poses the question: How do we assess disease modification in PN, and can treating early stop tissue damage and worsening of systemic diseases associated with PN?
CRSwNP Interactive Patient Case Tool
Meet Fernando. Journey through his clinical profile, applying guideline-based checklists to reach a consensus regarding his diagnosis.
The Chronic Nature of CSU: Understanding Disease Duration and Persistence
Dr. Elena Netchiporouk discusses the chronic nature of CSU at EADV 2025.
Beyond the Skin: Understanding Systemic Comorbidities in Prurigo Nodularis
Professor Matthias Augustin highlights the high prevalence of both atopic and non-atopic comorbidities in patients with PN, including increased risks of cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality.
Skin Dyspigmentation In Prurigo Nodularis (PN)
This infographic illustrates the clinical manifestations, pathophysiology and impact on patients of skin dyspigmentation in Prurigo Nodularis.
Mucus Plugging Is a Key Component of Remodeling in Asthma, Leading to Fixed Airway Obstruction
Learn about the role of type 2 inflammation in the burden and pathophysiology of mucus plugging in severe asthma
Unmet Needs in Bullous Pemphigoid
Join Dr. Culton as she discusses the unmet treatment needs in bullous pemphigoid, and the importance of understanding pathophysiology in disease management.
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.
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.
