Having a device that can measure TEWL remotely, continuously or as programmed by the investigator - and without perturbing a patient during sleep - is a major advance.

Long-term dupilumab treatment in young children (6mo–5y) with moderate-to-severe AD shows low infection rates. This reinforces its strong safety profile for pediatric eczema care.

New study on tapinarof cream 1% in pediatric AD! Minimal systemic absorption, favorable safety, and good tolerability in children (2–17 yrs)with extensive AD. The treatment was well tolerated, even on sensitive skin and flexural areas, with only mild folliculitis reported. #atopicdermatitis #dermsky

Excited about a device that both measures scratch based on finger movement and the sound of itch — and can optionally provide a haptic vibration when sensing scratch to stop it, even at night.
