Disease Modification Concepts in AD
Dr. Ramien explores the concept of disease modification in AD focusing on disease control, and the prevention or slowing of development of atopic comorbidities.
ERS 2024 | What Do We Know About IL-33 Genetics?
Dr. Stephanie Christenson examines the genetic and environmental factors influencing IL-33 expression and activity in COPD, highlighting the complex interplay between genetics, smoking, and disease pathogenesis.
ADVENT On Air | Exploring PN as a Distinct and Unique Disease
Dr. Sonja Ständer and Dr. Shawn Kwatra discuss the unique features of prurigo nodularis (PN) as well as the characteristics that are shared with atopic dermatitis, and aim to raise awareness of PN among both physicians and patients.
Potential for Disease Modification in Atopic Dermatitis
In this video from the 2024 Society for Pediatric Dermatology Symposium held in Toronto, Canada, Dr. Amy Paller, MD explores the possibilities for disease modification in atopic dermatitis.
Both Clinical and Subclinical Disease Control Are Important to Achieve Disease Modification in AD
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr. Eric Simpson explains how both clinical and subclinical disease control are critical for achieving true disease modification in atopic dermatitis, emphasizing the role of biomarkers in predicting long-term outcomes and guiding treatment decisions.
How Does Type 2 Inflammation Manifest in Chronic Diseases Across Different Organs?
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Prof Oscar Palomares discusses how type 2 inflammation plays a critical role in a broad range of diseases across different organ systems.
The Science Behind the Scratch: Pathophysiology of Age-Related Itch
Dr. Butler delves into the multifaceted biological mechanisms, including type 2 inflammation, that drive chronic pruritus in older adults. He explains how age-related changes contribute to epidermal barrier dysfunction, neuropathic damage, and immune decline, leading to chronic pruritus.
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.
Expert Interview: Featuring Dr Shawn Kwatra on PN itch and impact on patients
Join Dr Kwatra as he dives deeper into the mechanism of lesion formation in Prurigo Nodularis and the impact the development of these skin lesions have on patient life.
Under the Itchy Surface: The Insidious, Cumulative Burden of Type 2 Inflammation in AD
In this soundbite video from the March 2025 ADVENT symposium in Orlando, Florida, Dr. Eric Simpson highlights the systemic nature of atopic dermatitis (AD) and how the disease burden extends beyond the skin. Through the lens of cumulative life course impairment, Dr. Simpson explores how persistent type 2 inflammation in AD may drive both atopic and nonatopic comorbidities, emphasizing the importance of early, effective treatment to alter disease progression.
