Treatment and Evolution in 134 Patients with Aortitis and Periaortitis. Experience of a Single Referral Centre
Background/Purpose: Aortitis and periaortitis include a heterogeneous group of entities that may be idiopathic or secondary to infectious and non-infectious processes. Therefore, treatment will differ…Abstract Number: 0754 • ACR Convergence 2024
Clinical Characterization of Aortitis and Periaortitis in a Cohort of 134 Patients from a Single Universitary Center. A Model-based Cluster Analysis
Background/Purpose: Aortitis and periaortitis represent the inflammation of the aortic wall and the surrounding periaortic tissues, respectively. Both can be idiopathic or secondary to infectious…Abstract Number: 0758 • ACR Convergence 2024
Difficult to Treat Takayasu Arteritis: Comparative Efficacy of Colchicine and Tofacitinib
Background/Purpose: Biologic DMARDs (bDMARDs) are mainstay in management of patients with difficult to treat Takayasu Arteritis (D2TTAK). The cost of long-term biologics is prohibitory in…Abstract Number: 0765 • ACR Convergence 2024
Tocilizumab in Extracranial Large-Vessel Giant Cell Arteritis and Takayasu Arteritis: A Multicentric Observational Comparative Study
Background/Purpose: Tocilizumab (TCZ) seems to be effective in large vessel (LV) vasculitis including giant cell arteritis (GCA) and Takayasu arteritis (TAK). LV-GCA phenotype shares some…Abstract Number: 1561 • ACR Convergence 2024
Association of Large Vessel Vasculitis and Development of SSc and SSc-Associated Antibodies: Impact of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Background/Purpose: Large vessel vasculitis (LVV) comprises a spectrum of rare, potentially life-threatening disorders, including giant cell arteritis (GCA) and Takayasu's arteritis (TAK), defined by granulomatous…Abstract Number: 1615 • ACR Convergence 2024
Is Regular Vascular Imaging Scheduled Essential in the Follow-Up of Takayasu Arteritis? A Large-Scale Multicenter Cohort Study
Background/Purpose: The understanding of progression or minimal disease activity in patients with Takayasu arteritis (TA) can be complicated due to the possibility of mild vascular…Abstract Number: 1631 • ACR Convergence 2024
Serum IL-6 Levels Correlate with Inflammatory Activity in Computerized Tomography Angiography Scans in Takayasu Arteritis
Background/Purpose: Assessing disease activity in Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a significant challenge, and there is no consensus on evaluating inflammatory activity (IA). Previous studies have…Abstract Number: 1632 • ACR Convergence 2024
Multi-vessel Intimal Medial Thickness in Takayasu Arteritis: A Potential Marker for Disease Modification?
Background/Purpose: Ultrasonography can measure vascular intimal-medial thickness (IMT) and delineate the degrees of stenosis in Takayasu arteritis (TAK). Further, higher IMT has been reported in…Abstract Number: 1636 • ACR Convergence 2024
Age-associated B Cells Contribute to Inflammation of Takayasu’s Arteritis in an Antibody-secreting Cell Differentiation Independent Manner
Background/Purpose: Although Takayasu’s arteritis (TAK) is not a prototypical autoantibody-mediated autoimmune disease, several lines of evidence suggested the pathogenic potential of B cells. However, limited…Abstract Number: 1696 • ACR Convergence 2024
Comparison of Mycophenolate Mofetil Plus Methotrexate versus Cyclophosphamide with Sequential Azathioprine for Active Takayasu’s Arteritis: An Open-Label, Randomized-Controlled Trial
Background/Purpose: The management of Takayasu’s arteritis (TAK) is challenging for lack of large-scale, high-quality clinical trials. Cyclophosphamide (CYC) is a conventional first-line immunosuppressant but is…
