Increased Urinary IgA in Paediatric IgA Vasculitis Nephritis
IgA vasculitis (IgAV) is the most common form of paediatric vasculitis, with up to 50% of patients experiencing kidney inflammation. Much remains unknown about IgAV, but it is believed to arise due to galactose-deficient IgA1 promoting an auto-inflammatory response.

Systemic Activation of Neutrophils by Immune Complexes Is Critical to IgA Vasculitis
In IgA vasculitis (IgAV) perivascular deposition of IgA1 immune complexes (IgA-ICs) is traditionally considered the fundamental trigger for polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN)–mediated damage.

Apolipoprotein M Serum Levels Correlate with IgA Vasculitis and IgA Vasculitis Nephritis
Objective. IgA vasculitis (lgAV) is the most frequent vessel vasculitis in children, and the prognosis is related to the children’s age and degree of nephritis. This study is aimed at investigating serum apolipoprotein M (apoM) levels in patients with lgAV patients and at evaluating the association between apoM and disease severity.Methods.
