Prediction of Relapse and Glucocorticoid Dependence in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis: Findings From a Large European Cohort

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a small vessel vasculitis characterized by eosinophilia, asthma, and ear, nose, and throat (ENT) involvement. Although glucocorticoids (GCs) are effective in controlling symptoms, relapses and GC dependence are common. The aim of this study was to develop predictive models for vasculitis
