Otologic Wegener's Granulomatosis [PDF]

Acta Otorrinolaringologica (English Edition), 2013
Wegener’s granulomatosis (WG) is a systemic vasculitic disease characterized by necrotizing granulomas and vasculitis of small vessels.1,2 Upper airway tract involvement is frequent over the course of the disease.1,3 Cytoplasmatic pattern antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (c-ANCA) are highly specific for WG in the active phase.1,3 Proteinase 3-ANCA

The Effect of Vitamin D3 Supplementation on the Risk of Falls in a General Population—The Finnish Vitamin D Trial

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The impact of vitamin D on fall incidence remains controversial. We studied the effect of 5 years of vitamin D3 supplementation on the risk of falls in a double‐blind, placebo‐controlled randomized trial with generally healthy, community‐dwelling men and women in Finland.

Risk Factors for Relapse in Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody–Associated Vasculitis Among Patients With Relapse After Induction of Remission With Rituximab

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Volume 78, Issue 5, Page 1134-1144, May 2026.
Objective The objective of the study was to determine risk factors for relapse of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)–associated vasculitis (AAV) after reinduction of remission with rituximab and discontinuation of maintenance therapy. Methods This is a post hoc analysis of the RITAZAREM clinical trial.

Linked help from bacterial proteins drives autoantibody production in small vessel vasculitis. [PDF]

, 2018
The small vessel vasculitides granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) and microscopic polyangiitis are associated with autoantibodies to neutrophil cytoplasm antigens (ANCA), principally proteinase-3 (PR3) and myeloperoxidase (MPO).

Treatment of Wegener’s granulomatosis [PDF]

Reumatismo, 1993
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 ...

Aortic Valve Perforation in Pediatric Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Granulomatosis with polyangiitis, formerly Wegener's granulomatosis, is a rare antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)–associated vasculitis primarily affecting the respiratory tract and kidneys. Cardiovascular involvement, particularly valvular disease, is rare, especially in pediatric patients.

Dysphagia as the Sole Presentation of Lateral Medullary Syndrome in an Octagerian: A Diagnostic Challenge

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Lateral medullary syndrome (LMS) or Wallenberg's syndrome is usually caused by a cerebrovascular accident of the vertebral artery or the posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA), leading to damage to the dorsolateral aspects of the medulla oblongata.
