Vasculitides

While rheumatic diseases present well-known risks to health, function, and quality of life, several conditions-juvenile dermatomyositis, various vasculitides, and systemic sclerosis are associated in various studies with a small but significant increase in mortality. ❋ Unknown (2010)

The research will also develop and standardize outcome measures for the different types of vasculitis, and develop and standardize imaging techniques for the large vessel vasculitides. ❋ Unknown (2009)

The large vessel vasculitides are probably mediated by cellular immunity and generally have normal complement levels and no autoantibodies. ❋ Unknown (2008)

There are several vasculitides that affect small vessels. ❋ Unknown (2008)

These vasculitides, with partial exception from microscopic polyangiitis, are associated with dermatological manifestations. ❋ Unknown (2008)
