Implications of Antiphospholipid and Antineutrophilic Cytoplasmic Antibodies in the Context of Postinfectious Glomerulonephritis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
While antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) positivity has been documented in some patients with postinfectious glomerulonephritis (PIGN) and is associated with more severe disease, antiphospholipid antibodies (APA) are not known to be a common ...

Complement in ANCA-Associated Vasculitis

open access: yesSeminars in Nephrology, 2013
Antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies (ANCA) are the likely cause for necrotizing small vessel vasculitis and crescentic glomerulonephritis. Unlike other forms of crescentic glomerulonephritis induced by immune complexes or anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) antibodies that have conspicuous vessel wall immunoglobulin and complement, there

Association of autoimmune diseases with biologic agents targeting type 2 immunity: An observational study using a claims database

open access: yesRheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
This observational study assessed the association between anti‐type 2 biologic agents and the occurrence of autoimmune diseases using a large real‐world claims database. Anti‐IL‐5 and anti‐IgE therapies were associated with an increased occurrence of autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE ...

Targeting Immunologic Pathways in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis: Translating Emerging Evidence Into Clinical Practice

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare and potentially life‐threatening systemic, inflammatory disease with multi‐organ manifestations, variable presentation and complex pathology. Multiple interconnected immunological pathways are implicated in EGPA pathology, including a type‐2 immune response driving predominantly ...

Prognostic Factors of Renal Involvement in Systemic Sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background/Aims: Renal involvement is common in systemic sclerosis (SSc), including asymptomatic reduction of glomerular filtration rate (GFR), increased renal resistance indices, scleroderma renal crisis (SRC) and ANCA-associated vasculitis. The aim was

Machine Learning‐Based Prediction of Life‐Threatening Complications During Hemodialysis in Hospitalized Patients With Poor General Conditions

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
A machine learning model using predialysis data predicted sudden events during or after hemodialysis with high accuracy (auROC: 0.889). The key predictors included emergency hospitalization, recent surgery, high heart rate, low albumin levels, and high CRP.
