Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) are primarily involved in the pathogenesis of ANCA-associated vasculitides (AAV). However, ANCA may also be present in healthy subjects and in patients with autoimmune disorders different from AAV. We hypothesized that serum ANCA are associated with a worse prognosis in disorders other than AAV.

Abstract

Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) are primarily involved in the pathogenesis of ANCA-associated vasculitides (AAV). However, ANCA may also be present in healthy subjects and in patients with autoimmune disorders different from AAV. We hypothesized that serum ANCA are associated with a worse prognosis in disorders other than AAV.
