Rare vasculitis types and obstetric and neonatal outcomes – A population‐based study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Vasculitis is an infrequent pathology among reproductive‐aged women. While data exists regarding pregnancy outcomes in the more common vasculitis subtypes, data is limited regarding these outcomes in rare vasculitis subtypes. We aimed to compare pregnancy and perinatal outcomes between women who suffered from rare types of vasculitis

Vessel Wall Inflammation of Takayasu Arteritis Detected by Contrast-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Association with Disease Distribution and Activity. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
AIMS:The assessment of the distribution and activity of vessel wall inflammation is clinically important in patients with Takayasu arteritis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a useful tool, but the clinical utility of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE)

Transcranial Color‐Coded Duplex Sonography in Large‐Vessel Vasculitis Compatible With Takayasu Arteritis Presenting Intracranial Involvement and Vertebrobasilar Dolichoectasia: A Case Report

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
This case illustrates sequential intracranial occlusions in large‐vessel vasculitis compatible with Takayasu arteritis preserving perfusion through robust collateral pathways. Transcranial color‐coded duplex sonography identified characteristic blunted flow patterns and focal turbulence, underscoring its value in detecting hemodynamic compromise beyond

Haemostatic changes and bleeding with anti‐IL‐6 directed therapy in autoimmune diseases

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Anti‐IL‐6 directed therapy, especially tocilizumab (TCZ), is widely used for the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, giant cell arteritis and systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Next to being a master regulator of inflammation, IL‐6 also is an important regulator of haemostasis. Although generally well tolerated,

Performance Characteristics of Anti–Collagen II Antibodies in Relapsing Polychondritis and Related Diseases: Prospective Analysis, Systematic Review, and Meta‐Analysis

Arthritis Care &Research, Volume 78, Issue 6, Page 798-809, June 2026.
Objective Relapsing polychondritis (RP) is a rare disease defined by recurrent cartilaginous inflammation. Anti–collagen II (Col2) antibodies have been proposed as a diagnostic biomarker for RP, but their performance characteristics are not well defined.
