Renal vasculitis in 2012: Reclassification and the introduction of biologicals
2012 saw the classification of the systemic vasculitides revised. Genetic studies showed that granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) and microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) are different diseases with aber...
ANCA-associated vasculitis has genetic component
(HealthDay) -- A genome-wide association study of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis shows a genetic contribution to disease susceptibility, which differs between granulo...
Vasculitis: Refining phenotypes in ANCA-associated vasculitis
As granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) and microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) share histopathologic and clinical features, including the presence of antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibodies (ANCAs), p...
World's smallest wrench puts twist on microscopic manipulation
Harnessing laser light's ability to gently push and pull microscopic particles, researchers have created the fiber-optic equivalent of the world's smallest wrench. This virtual tool can precisely twi...
Microscopic Hematuria an Unreliable Indicator of Bladder Cancer
A study found that microscopic hematuria does not necessarily mean cancer, and has led to a new model to...
Microscopic Hematuria May Be Poor Predictor of Cancer
A new study suggests that tests routinely performed on patients with asymptomatic microscopic hematuria can be avoided. Medscape Medical News
Important microscopic technique advanced for biomedical research
Scientists at TU Delft have made an important advancement in a new microscopic technique that is widely used in medical research. They demonstrate what the resolution of this localization microscopy i...

In 1923, Friedrich Wohlwill described two patients with a "microscopic form of periarteritis nodosa," which was distinct from the classical form. This disease, now known as microscopic polyangiitis (M...
To create a prognostic tool to quantify the 5-year cardiovascular (CV) risk in patients with newly diagnosed Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) and microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) without premorbid CV disea...
Advances in Therapy for ANCA-Associated Vasculitis.
The anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitides include granulomatosis with polyangiitis (Wegener's granulomatosis) and microscopic polyangiitis. The introduction of therapy with cyto...
A case of Sjögren syndrome with pulmonary amyloidosis complicating microscopic polyangiitis.
We present the case of a 71-year-old Japanese woman with Sjögren syndrome complicated with pulmonary amyloidosis who developed microscopic polyangiitis. She was admitted because of fever, weight loss...
Aims: We prospectively compared the effects of oral mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) or intravenous cyclophosphamide (IVC) combined with corticosteroids for induction therapy of microscopic polyangiitis (M...
