Time to Act: Reducing the Impact of Uncontrolled Disease Through Early Intervention
Dr Jason Hawkes describes the importance of early intervention for patients with uncontrolled skin diseases and the effectiveness of evidence-based management strategies, sharing a patient case and his clinical insights with chronic spontaneous urticaria. Drs Eichenfield, Elmariah, and Culton join to review the burdens faced by patients with atopic dermatitis, prurigo nodularis, and bullous pemphigoid, respectively.
Cracking the Code: Diagnosing and Managing Skin Diseases With Type 2 Inflammation
This symposium delves into the pivotal role of type 2 inflammation in diverse skin conditions, including atopic dermatitis, prurigo nodularis, chronic spontaneous urticaria, and bullous pemphigoid. It highlights both shared and distinct disease mechanisms and patient burdens, providing crucial insights for optimizing clinical management strategies through a series of engaging panel discussions with Drs Eichenfield, Elmariah, Culton, and Hawkes.
The Role of Type 2 Inflammation in Multiple Disease Trajectories
How type 2 inflammation drives atopic dermatitis and underlies other atopic diseases across multiple disease trajectories including the atopic march.
Emerging Perspectives on the Disease Burden and Management of Children With Atopic Dermatitis
This video of the October 2024 ADVENT symposium at EAPS in Vienna, Austria features Drs Christine Bangert, Mark Boguniewicz, and Perla Lansang as they discuss the inflammatory processes driven by type 2 cytokines that lead to AD and atopic comorbidities, the multidimensional and cumulative disease burden associated with AD and its comorbidities, and the current and emerging treatment options for children with AD uncontrolled with topical therapy
The PEDISTAD Survey: Assessing the Burden of Atopic Dermatitis in the Global Pediatric Population
An interactive tool used to explore the global burden of atopic dermatitis in children and adolescents.
Explore the Global Burden of Pediatric AD (PEDISTAD)
This interactive tool allows you to explore the global burden of AD in pediatric patients <12 years from the PEDISTAD Study.
The Benefits of Early Intervention in AD: More Than Skin Deep
Many AD treatment goals focus on clinical manifestations, so that if a patient is free of lesions, their disease is considered well controlled. However, the inflammatory process underlying AD reaches far beyond the skin, affecting patients in unique ways at different stages of their lives. Education on the importance of treating AD beyond the skin and altering the treatment approach to fit the individual patient will help improve clinical management and reduce long-term patient burden.
ADVENT at WCPD 2025
The ADVENT symposium at the 15th World Congress of Pediatric Dermatology (WCPD) will focus on discussions around disease modification in atopic dermatitis (AD) in three main topic areas: restoring the skin barrier, reducing non-atopic comorbidities, and stopping the atopic march in pediatric patients with AD aged 6 months to 11 years.
Charting the Future: Preventing the Atopic March
In this video from the April 2025 WCPD symposium, Dr Eulàlia Baselga discusses how early intervention during infancy and childhood in patients with AD may reduce the progression of the atopic march. Dr Baselga goes on to review data showing how the reduction of biomarkers such as IgE and CCL17 may reduce inflammation and sensitization that contribute to atopic comorbidities.
Diving Below the Surface of AD: The Role of Type 2 Inflammation
This video from the September 2024 ADVENT symposium at EADV’s Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, features Dr. Stephan Weidinger discussing how local type 2 inflammation at the skin tissue level contributes to epidermal barrier dysfunction, dysbiosis, and neuroimmune dysfunction, leading to the clinical signs and symptoms of AD. Dr. Weidinger also reviews how systemic inflammation affects organ systems beyond the skin and can manifest as atopic and non-atopic comorbidities.
