BACKGROUND This study was conducted to examine prospectively the epidemiological profile of renal disease associated with microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) and classic polyarteritis nodosa (classic PAN) in Kuwait and its clinicopathological correlation. METHODS Between 1 January 1993 and 31 December 1996, all patients referred to Al-Amiri renal centre were subjected to renal biopsy and/or arteriography if they manifested systemic manifestations of vasculitis or had rapid or unexplained renal…

Clinical features and outcome of microscopic polyangiitis under a new consensus algorithm of ANCA-associated vasculitides in Korea
TLDR
This is the first study to demonstrate the clinical features in patients with MPA using a new consensus algorithm, and survival rate was higher than previously reported, and interstitial lung disease was a new risk factor for death in patientsWith MPA.
The significance of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody in microscopic polyangitis and classic polyarteritis nodosa
TLDR
ANA is useful in the diagnosis and follow up of MPA and the importance of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) in childhood PAN is described.
Incidence of ANCA-associated primary renal vasculitis in the Miyazaki Prefecture: the first population-based, retrospective, epidemiologic survey in Japan.
TLDR
The incidence of PRV did not differ between Japan and Europe, but WG was not widespread in Japan, and the ratio of serum MPO to PR3-ANCA among Japanese with PRV was much higher than that found among European and US patients.

TLDR
The annual incidence for primary renal vasculitis overall and the individual subtypes in Norfolk is much higher than previous European estimates and may reflect an increasing incidence with time or underestimation in previous studies.
Glomerulopathy in Kuwait: The Spectrum over the Past 7 Years
TLDR
The calculated incidence rates of GP increased with age and were twice as high in males compared to females than in females, and autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus and vasculitis were common.
The clinical spectrum of primary renal vasculitis.
Childhood microscopic polyangiitis associated with MPO-ANCA
TLDR
Six girls and one boy aged 12.0±2.6 years (7–15 years) met the following inclusion criteria: clinical manifestations of systemic small vessel involvement; histological demonstration of pauci-immune necrotizing glomerulonephritis; and serological findings of increased concentration of MPO-ANCA by ELISA test.
Classic polyarteritis nodosa presenting with acute anuric renal failure
TLDR
The clinical and pathological features and course of a patient with cPAN presenting with acute developing anuria requiring hemodialysis and severe hypertension is reported, which is the first pediatric patient reported with acute anuric renal failure requiring renal replacement therapy associated withcPAN.
Clinical and Pathological Characterization of Patients with Microscopic Polyangiitis with Medium Artery Involvement
TLDR
About 23% MPA patients had medium artery involvement and their impaired renal function is mainly due to extensive glomerular ischemia, and these patients progressed to acute renal failure quicker and responded to therapy better.
ANCA-associated glomerulonephritis: Relationship of main ANCA subtypes to renal outcome, age and sex of the patients.
TLDR
Patients with pANCA present more frequently with RPGN, leading to a poorer renal survival compared to cases with cANCA, which is more common in females.

Systemic vasculitis in the 1980s--is there an increasing incidence of Wegener's granulomatosis and microscopic polyarteritis?
TLDR
Cases seen during these two periods did not differ by any clinical parameter except that later cases had less severe renal disease at referral and improved renal outcome, and may reflect increasing diagnostic awareness of WG and MPA among physicians since the introduction of ANCA.

Systemic vasculitis in a district general hospital 1972-1980: clinical and laboratory features, classification and prognosis of 80 cases.
TLDR
Non-specific symptoms, leucocytosis and eosinophilia were the most useful features for distinguishing PAN from the other two groups, but features associated with a poor prognosis were renal impairment, cutaneous and intestinal vasculitis in PAN; and neuropathy, weight loss and histological evidence of Vasculitis at rectal biopsy in RV.
Prognostic factors in polyarteritis.
TLDR
Data from this study did not show a superiority of high vs. low dosage of corticosteroids in suppressing active disease, and muscle biopsies, even in the absence of clinical involvement, were a useful diagnostic procedure.

The clinical spectrum of necrotizing glomerulonephritis.
TLDR
Although immunosuppressive and anticoagulant therapy was associated with an improvement in renal function, 6 patients with necrotizing glomerulonephritis had died after a mean follow-up period of 25 months.
The existence of a protracted course in crescentic glomerulonephritis.
TLDR
A spectrum of clinical and morphologic features which may occur in idiopathic crescentic glomerulonephritis are described, which is further distinguished from RPGN by frequent hypertension and the nephrotic syndrome, the absence of oligo-anuria and progression to renal failure over many months or even years.
