They comprise granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA, Wegener's), microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA, Churg-Strauss syndrome). Their clinical presentation is often heterogeneous, with frequent involvement of the respiratory tract, the kidney, the skin and the joints. ANCA-associated vasculitis is rare in childhood but North-American and European cohort studies performed during the last decade have clarified their phenotype, patterns of renal involvement and their prognostic implications, and outcome. Herein, we review the main clinical and therapeutic aspects of childhood-onset ANCA-associated vasculitis, and provide preliminary data on demographic characteristics and organ manifestations of an Italian multicentre cohort.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28476172?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Simonini, Gabriele</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bracaglia, Claudia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cattalini, Marco</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Taddio, Andrea</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brambilla, Alice</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">de Libero, Cinzia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pires Marafon, Denise</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Caputo, Roberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cimaz, Rolando</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Predictors of Relapse after Discontinuing Systemic Treatment in Childhood Autoimmune Chronic Uveitis.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J Rheumatol</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J.

At baseline, all patients were refractory to standard immunosuppressive treatment and/or were corticosteroid-dependent. Data recorded every 3 months included uveitis course, number/type of ocular complications, drug-related adverse events (AE), treatment change or withdrawal, and laboratory measures. Data of patients treated for at least 1 year were retrieved from the NIR and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Treatment efficacy was based on change in uveitis course and in number of ocular complications.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;Up to December 2009, data for 108 patients with JIA-AU treated with anti-tumor necrosis factor-α agents were recorded in the NIR and data from 91, with at least 12 months' followup, were included in the study. Forty-eight patients were treated with IFX, 43 with ADA. Forty-seven patients (55.3%) achieved remission of AU, 28 (32.9%) had recurrent AU, and 10 (11.8%) maintained a chronic course. A higher remission rate was observed with ADA (67.4% vs 42.8% with IFX; p = 0.025). Ocular complications decreased from 0.47 to 0.32 per subject. Five patients experienced resolution of structural complications. No patient reported serious AE; 8 (8.8%) experienced 11 minor AE (9 with IFX, 2 with ADA).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;IFX and ADA appear to be effective and safe for treatment of refractory JIA-related uveitis, with a better performance of ADA in the medium-term period.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23118110?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ruperto, Nicolino</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ozen, Seza</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pistorio, Angela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dolezalova, Pavla</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brogan, Paul</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cabral, David A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cuttica, Ruben</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Khubchandani, Raju</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lovell, Daniel J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">O'Neil, Kathleen M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quartier, Pierre</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ravelli, Angelo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Iusan, Silvia M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Filocamo, Giovanni</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magalhães, Claudia Saad</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Unsal, Erbil</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oliveira, Sheila</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bracaglia, Claudia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bagga, Arvind</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stanevicha, Valda</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Manzoni, Silvia Magni</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pratsidou, Polyxeni</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lepore, Loredana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Espada, Graciela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kone-Paut, Isabella</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Paut, Isabelle Kone</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zulian, Francesco</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barone, Patrizia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bircan, Zelal</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Maldonado, Maria del Rocio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Russo, Ricardo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vilca, Iris</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tullus, Kjell</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cimaz, Rolando</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Horneff, Gerd</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Anton, Jordi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Garay, Stella</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nielsen, Susan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barbano, Giancarlo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martini, Alberto</style></author></authors><translated-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Paediatric Rheumatology International Trials Organisation (PRINTO)</style></author></translated-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">EULAR/PRINTO/PRES criteria for Henoch-Schönlein purpura, childhood polyarteritis nodosa, childhood Wegener granulomatosis and childhood Takayasu arteritis: Ankara 2008.

Step 1: retrospective/prospective web-data collection for HSP, c-PAN, c-WG and c-TA, with age at diagnosis &lt;or=18 years. Step 2: blinded classification by consensus panel of a subgroup of 280 cases (128 difficult cases, 152 randomly selected) enabling expert diagnostic verification. Step 3: Ankara 2008 Consensus Conference and statistical evaluation (sensitivity, specificity, area under the curve, kappa-agreement) using as 'gold standard' the final consensus classification or original treating physician diagnosis.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;RESULTS: &lt;/b&gt;A total of 1183/1398 (85%) samples collected were available for analysis: 827 HSP, 150 c-PAN, 60 c-WG, 87 c-TA and 59 c-other. Prevalence, signs/symptoms, laboratory, biopsy and imaging reports were consistent with the clinical picture of the four c-vasculitides. A representative subgroup of 280 patients was blinded to the treating physician diagnosis and classified by a consensus panel, with a kappa-agreement of 0.96 for HSP (95% CI 0.84 to 1), 0.88 for c-WG (95% CI 0.76 to 0.99), 0.84 for c-TA (95% CI 0.73 to 0.96) and 0.73 for c-PAN (95% CI 0.62 to 0.84), with an overall kappa of 0.79 (95% CI 0.73 to 0.84).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;CONCLUSION: &lt;/b&gt;EULAR/PRINTO/PRES propose validated classification criteria for HSP, c-PAN, c-WG and c-TA, with substantial/almost perfect agreement with the final consensus classification or original treating physician diagnosis.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20388738?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
