Abstract
Ongoing therapeutic advances in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV) have significantly reduced the risk of death in AAV, but 30%-50% of patients still relapse. Relapse is a major problem in these diseases, leading to increased morbidity and mortality. It is, therefore, necessary to find predictors of relapse at the end of the remission induction and maintenance phases in order to personalize treatment.
期刊介绍:
Clinical & Experimental Immunology (established in 1966) is an authoritative international journal publishing high-quality research studies in translational and clinical immunology that have the potential to transform our understanding of the immunopathology of human disease and/or change clinical practice.
The journal is focused on translational and clinical immunology and is among the foremost journals in this field, attracting high-quality papers from across the world. Translation is viewed as a process of applying ideas, insights and discoveries generated through scientific studies to the treatment, prevention or diagnosis of human disease. Clinical immunology has evolved as a field to encompass the application of state-of-the-art technologies such as next-generation sequencing, metagenomics and high-dimensional phenotyping to understand mechanisms that govern the outcomes of clinical trials.
