Glomerular Proteomic Signature in ANCA-associated Glomerulonephritis
Background/Purpose: Crescentic glomerulonephritis (AAGN) is a common manifestation of ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) but does not occur in all patients. It is unclear whether the immune…Abstract Number: 2496 • ACR Convergence 2024
Clinical Features and Outcomes of Hydralazine-associated Vasculitis: A Case-Control Study
Background/Purpose: We aimed to investigate the relationship between hydralazine and any form of vasculitis (small, medium, or large vessel), to describe clinical features and outcomes…Abstract Number: 0729 • ACR Convergence 2024
Factors Associated with Pauci-immune Glomerulonephritis in Patients Undergoing Renal Biopsy with Positive ANCA Results
Background/Purpose: Pauci-immune glomerulonephritis (GN) is a renal manifestation of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV). When patients present with positive ANCA results and urinary abnormalities…Abstract Number: 2512 • ACR Convergence 2024
French Multicenter Retrospective Study of Patients with Cocaine- and/or Levamisole-induced Vasculitis and Vasculopathy
Background/Purpose: Levamisole, an imidazothiazole formerly used as an anthelmintic, is also used as a cutting agent to enhance the effects and duration of cocaine. In…Abstract Number: 0731 • ACR Convergence 2024
Differentiating Primary Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody (ANCA) Associated Vasculitis from Secondary Forms
Background/Purpose: ANCA associated vasculitis (AAV) is a severe autoimmune disorder with substantial morbidity and mortality. Establishing the diagnosis might be challenging due to the existence…Abstract Number: 2690 • ACR Convergence 2024
ANCA IgG Promotion of Neutrophil Recruitment, Migration and Vascular Damage in ANCA Associated Vasculitis May Be Enhanced by Hypoxia
Background/Purpose: Neutrophils are main mediators of disease in ANCA associated vasculitis (AAV). Pathogenic ANCA IgG on neutrophils promotes neutrophil adhesion and migration at the endothelium.…Abstract Number: 0734 • ACR Convergence 2024
Insights into Readmissions of ANCA-Vasculitis Patients: A Nationwide Analysis
Background/Purpose: ANCA vasculitis is an immune-medicated inflammation affecting small-medium vessels and manifesting with a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations most commonly involving the lungs and…Abstract Number: 2692 • ACR Convergence 2024
Transcriptomic Profiling of Kidney Biopsies Implicates Th17 and IL-17 in ANCA-Associated Vasculitis
Background/Purpose: ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) is a severe autoimmune disease targeting small vessels, with significant kidney involvement. Despite current therapies, up to 28% of patients progress…Abstract Number: 0774 • ACR Convergence 2024
A Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Effects of Low-dose Glucocorticoids Compared to Stopping Glucocorticoids to Maintain Remission of Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis: The TAPIR Trial
Background/Purpose: Use of low-dose glucocorticoids to maintain remission in patients with granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) remains controversial. Additionally, there is no consensus on how to…
