”We are delighted to share some great news!
Our new study reflecting the real-life experience of TRVaS (Turkish Vasculitis Study Group) has just been published:
Venous Thromboembolism May Be Increased in the Early Phases of ANCA-Associated Vasculitis and Could Be Associated With a High Body Mass Index: TRVaS Experience
This study highlights that venous thromboembolism risk may be increased during the early phases of ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) and may be associated with a higher body mass index.
We believe these findings will contribute meaningfully to clinical awareness and patient management in vasculitis.

We sincerely thank all collaborators and members of the TRVaS network for their valuable contributions.
We are truly happy and proud!
Venous Thromboembolism May Be Increased in the Early Phases of ANCA-Associated Vasculitis and Could Be Associated With a High Body Mass Index: TRVaS Experience
This study demonstrates that the risk of venous thromboembolism may be increased in patients with ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV), particularly in the early stages of the disease, and suggests a possible association with a high body mass index.
We believe that these data, obtained in collaboration with TRVaS, will make important contributions to clinical awareness and patient management.”
