The parallel existence of classification criteria and disease definitions produced some overlap in classification, leading to challenges when comparing different cohorts.

During the last 35 years, several sets of classification criteria have evolved to facilitate epidemiologic studies and clinical trials in AAV. While some of these criteria have been in use for many years, they were criticized due to either not using ANCA or not integrating surrogate markers for vasculitis but also due to overlapping when used in parallel.

Additionally, based on observational data, more clinicians are now using combination therapies during the induction phase. There is also an evolving understanding of the role of plasma exchange in removing ANCA antibodies. Furthermore, the recent development of risk score systems provides physicians with valuable prognostic information that can influence decisions on immunosuppression, although future validation from larger cohorts is needed. The over-activation of various immune pathways plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of pauci-immune crescentic glomerulonephritis in AAV.
