Interstitial Lung Disease in ANCA‐Associated Vasculitis: A European Multicentre Study
Background Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) can occur in association with ANCA‐associated Vasculitis (AAV‐ILD) or as an isolated entity with positive ANCA (ANCA‐ILD). However, data on the epidemiology and outcomes of these conditions remain limited.

Utility of serological markers in inflammatory bowel diseases: Gadget or magic? [PDF]
The panel of serologic markers for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) is rapidly expanding. Although anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies (ASCA) and atypical perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (P-ANCA) remain the most widely ...

ABSTRACT Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant plasma cell disorder that primarily presents with CRAB symptoms (calcium elevation, renal failure, anemia, and bone abnormalities). In rare cases, MM manifests with systemic complications like skin ulcers, which present management challenges. Here, we report a 78‐year‐old Japanese man with MM and refractory

C‐Reactive Protein Serum Values in Idiopathic and Autoimmune Subglottic Stenosis
This study characterized C‐reactive protein (CRP) levels in idiopathic and granulomatosis with polyangiitis‐related (GPA) subglottic stenosis (SGS) to assess CRP ability to distinguish SGS subtypes and predict recurrence. High CRP levels are more frequent in GPA‐SGS, potentially aiding clinical differentiation of etiologies.

Immunosuppression and Surgery‐Free Interval in Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis Airway Stenosis
Subglottic and tracheal stenosis are severe manifestations of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) that often require both endoscopic intervention and systemic immunosuppression. Rituximab may help stabilize GPA‐related airway disease by prolonging the interval between endoscopic procedures and delaying relapse.
