Chronic inflammation has long been known to downregulate the activity of certain cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes—the main enzymes responsible for the phase I metabolism of many small molecule drugs—potentially leading to higher exposures in patients with chronic inflammatory diseases compared to healthy volunteers. Neglecting this potential difference in

Automatic Reading of ANCA-Slides: Evaluation of the AKLIDES System
The ANCA consensus prescribes screening by indirect immunofluorescence on neutrophils. We evaluated the first automated ANCA-pattern recognition system. C-ANCA and P-ANCA samples were selected from patients with ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV).

ANCA-associated vasculitis [PDF]
The vasculitides are a heterogeneous group of conditions typified by their ability to cause vessel inflammation with or without necrosis. They present with a wide variety of signs and symptoms and, if left untreated, carry a significant burden of mortality and morbidity.

Association of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) specificity with the demographic and clinical characteristics of patients with ANCA-associated vasculitides [PDF]
Introduction Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)–associated vasculitis (AAV) is characterized by the presence of proteinase-3(PR3) or myeloperoxidase(MPO) ANCA. In over 90% of cases, PR3-ANCA are associated with GPA. However, they are also rarely

ANCA-negative ANCA-associated vasculitis: pitfalls of the ‘vasculitis screen’
Despite its recognition as an 'ANCA-associated vasculitis' (AAV), eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is ANCA negative in up to 60% of cases. Herein, we report the case of a young man with a clinical syndrome highly suggestive of EGPA but with repeated negative ANCA serology, ultimately presenting with cardiac arrest before recognition
