Atopic dermatitis is the most common chronic inflammatory skin disease in children and adolescents. The Korean Academy of Pediatric Allergy and Respiratory Disease published the Atopic Dermatitis Treatment Guideline in 2008, which has been helpful in atopic dermatitis treatment until now. Various reports on the development and effectiveness of new drugs have suggested that there is a need to develop and revise old treatment guidelines. Part 1 aimed to provide evidence-based recommendations for skin care management and topical treatment for atopic dermatitis. Part 2 focuses on systemic treatment, novel therapeutics, and adjuvant therapy. The goal of this guideline is intended to assist front-line doctors treating pediatric and adolescent atopic dermatitis patients make safer, more effective, and more rational decisions regarding systemic treatment, novel therapeutics, and adjuvant therapy by providing evidence-based recommendations with a clear level of evidence and benefit regarding treatment.

Noncystic fibrosis bronchiectasis is a chronic respiratory disease that carries high socioeconomic and medical burdens and is caused by diverse respiratory illnesses. To improve clinical outcomes, early recognition, active treatment of exacerbations, and prevention of further exacerbations are essential. However, evidence for the treatment and prevention of acute exacerbation of noncystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, especially in children, is lacking. Therefore, the evidence- and consensus-based guidelines for medical and nonmedical treatment strategies for noncystic fibrosis bronchiectasis in children and adolescents were developed by the Korean Academy of Pediatric Allergy and Respiratory Disease using the methods recommended by the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation working group with evidence published through July 2, 2020. This guideline encompasses evidence-based treatment recommendations as well as expert opinions, addressing crucial aspects of the treatment and management of non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis in children. This includes considerations for antibiotics and airway clearance strategies, particularly in areas where evidence may be limited. Large, well-designed, and controlled studies are required to accumulate further evidence of management strategies for noncystic fibrosis bronchiectasis in children and adolescents.

Polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN) is a DNA-derived drug with a molecular weight of 50 to 1,500 kDa that is extracted from the sperm of fish such as salmon, trout, and sturgeon. PDRN activates the adenosine A2 receptor and salvage pathway, promoting bone cell activity, collagen synthesis, and angiogenesis. Numerous preclinical and clinical studies have described the wound healing and anti-inflammatory effects of PDRN. PDRN enhances tendon-to-bone healing in rotator cuff injuries, reduces fat degeneration, and has positive clinical effects on pain relief and functional recovery. In vivo studies on Achilles tendon injuries have shown that PDRN promotes collagen synthesis, inhibits cell apoptosis, and reduces inflammatory responses. In lateral epicondylitis of the elbow, PDRN administration improves pain and increases the thickness of tendons. PDRN has been reported to alleviate pain in plantar fasciitis. Moreover, PDRN promotes re-epithelialization in wound healing, diabetic ulcers, and pressure ulcers, leading to shortened healing periods and positive outcomes. In degenerative arthritis, PDRN administration has comparable or even superior effects to hyaluronic acid treatment. Numerous preclinical and clinical studies show that PDRN is a promising therapeutic approach for musculoskeletal disorders and skin healing, serving as an effective tissue regeneration stimulant.
