Description
Baas and co-authors review markers that could track disease activity in ANCA-associated vasculitis. These rare autoimmune diseases inflame small and medium blood vessels. Drugs can force the disease into remission, yet many patients relapse. Doctors lack reliable tests to spot returning activity early. The review weighs four candidate markers found in urine or blood. They are CD163, CD206, CD25, and MCP-1.
The team searched three databases and screened studies by set rules. Data pulling and quality checks were done by separate reviewers. Twenty studies entered the final pool. A standard tool for diagnostic accuracy studies graded each one. The review asks which markers are ready for clinic use.
