Journal ArticleDOI

Factors Associated with Relapse and Dependence on Glucocorticoids in Giant Cell Arteritis.

TL;DR: LVV was an independent predictor of relapse and GC dependence in patients with giant cell arteritis and further prospective studies are needed to confirm these findings and to determine whether patients with LVV require a different treatment approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mortality causes and trends associated with giant cell arteritis: analysis of the French national death certificate database (1980-2011).

TL;DR: GCA is associated with increased risk of dying from large-vessel disease, other cardiovascular diseases and potentially treatment-related co-morbidities and these findings help provide better insights into the outcomes of GCA.
Journal Article

The different clinical patterns of giant cell arteritis.

TL;DR: This study suggests that 80% of GCA patients display a typical presentation, whereas the other 20% showed rarer presentations, and patients with symptomatic LVV required longer treatment duration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical Effect of Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency in Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-associated Vasculitis: Results from a French Retrospective Monocentric Cohort.

TL;DR: It is shown that AAT deficiency confers, independently of ANCA subtype, a higher risk of IAH, and Prospective studies are required to refine these data and to assess the need for replacement therapy in AAT-deficient patients with AAV.
Journal ArticleDOI

Features and prognosis of giant cell arteritis in patients over 85 years of age: A case-control study.

TL;DR: GCA in very elderly patients was characterized by a higher rate of severe ischemic complications and an increased risk for early death compared to younger patients, and there is a need for the early diagnosis of GCA and close clinical monitoring in this unique population.
