For Your Eyes Only: 007 Tips for the Management of Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-Associated Vasculitis.
Jan Willem Cohen TervaertPublished in: The Journal of rheumatology (2023)
Premature atherosclerosis has been observed during the course of different systemic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus, and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV). 1-3 As a result, cardiovascular (CV) events, including myocardial infarction, stroke, heart failure, coronary artery disease, and death, occur 1.65 to 3 times more commonly in patients with AAV as compared to the general population, and the risk appears to be highest in the first year following diagnosis. 3 .
