Characteristics of a Cohort of Patients with Interstitial Lung Disease and ANCA Positivity in a University Hospital
Background/Purpose: The prevalence of ANCA positivity at diagnosis of interstitial lung disease (ILD) ranges between 4-36% for anti-MPO and 2-4% for anti-PR3. ILD is more…Abstract Number: 0715 • ACR Convergence 2024
Diffuse Alveolar Hemorrhage in Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-Associated Vasculitis Revisited
Background/Purpose: We sought to characterize the most recent cohort of patients presenting with DAH and AAV and to identify risk factors for respiratory failure and…Abstract Number: 1610 • ACR Convergence 2024
Anti-neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibodies Associated Interstitial Pneumonia: A New Clinical Entity?
Background/Purpose: Pneumologists do not routinely include screening for anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) in the evaluation of interstitial pneumonia (IP). Indeed, antibodies against myeloperoxidase (anti-MPO) and…Abstract Number: 0718 • ACR Convergence 2024
Incidence and Patient Profile Changes in ANCA-Associated Vasculitis Following the SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic
Background/Purpose: Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis is often linked to previous viral infections. Clinical evidence suggests SARS-CoV-2 virus may follow a similar pattern, with an…Abstract Number: 2181 • ACR Convergence 2024
Large Pediatric Cohort with ANCA-associated Vasculitis at a Single Institution: Patient Characteristics, Clinical Course, and Outcomes
Background/Purpose: Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV) is an understudied, chronic inflammatory disease in children with significant morbidity and mortality. There are few large pediatric cohorts…Abstract Number: 0721 • ACR Convergence 2024
Does Serial ANCA Testing Help Predict the Risk of Relapse in Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis? A Single-center Cohort Study
Background/Purpose: ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) is a frequently relapsing disease for which a meta-analysis concluded that an increase or persistence of ANCA during remission is only…Abstract Number: 2483 • ACR Convergence 2024
Efficacy and Safety of Avacopan over 12 Months in Japanese Patients with MPA/GPA: A Single-center Study
Background/Purpose: Avacopan, an oral C5a receptor inhibitor, was demonstrated to be an alternative to glucocorticoids (GC) in the treatment of microscopic polyangiitis (MPA)/granulomatosis with polyangiitis…Abstract Number: 0725 • ACR Convergence 2024
Serum Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Could Assess Cross-sectional Vasculitis Activity by Reflecting Renal Involvement in Patients with Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-associated Vasculitis
Background/Purpose: Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), an intermediate filament protein produced by astrocytes in the CNS, has been identified as a biomarker for disease activity…Abstract Number: 2492 • ACR Convergence 2024
ANCA Associated Tracheobronchial Disease
Background/Purpose: Tracheobronchial disease is a common manifestation of ANCA associated vasculitis (AAV). However, outcomes data is commonly unreported in prospective studies. We performed a retrospective…
