Treatment of Wegener’s granulomatosis [PDF]
Treatment and outcome of 111 patients who fell ill with Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) between 1966 and 1990 were analysed retrospectively. Two regimens of treatment were distinguished: "conventional" treatment, i.e. daily application of cyclophosphamide/corticosteroids (FAUCI scheme) or azathioprine/corticosteroids or corticosteroids alone, and "stage ...

Safety of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Cancer Patients With Preexisting Autoimmune Vasculitis
Objective Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are effective cancer therapies but often cause serious immune‐related adverse events (irAEs). Patients with preexisting autoimmune diseases, including vasculitis, are excluded from trials. We aimed to evaluate the frequency, severity, and outcomes of vasculitis flares and irAEs in this population.

Acute Wegener's granulomatosis [PDF]
Two cases of acute Wegener's granulomatosis are described. The first ended fatally after an illness of only two weeks.

Currently, the animals commonly used to establish animal models of benign airway stenosis (BAS) include mice, rats, pigs, dogs, rabbits, and ferrets. The establishment methods involve one or a combination of two methods such as mechanical injury, tracheal cautery, cuff overpressure intubation, laser injury, and endoscopic silver nitrate cauterization ...
