The uncertain correlation of ANCAs in patients with lupus nephritis and crescents, an experience from Chinese centers
Short-term follow-up (average follow-up time of less than 3 years) did not reveal any difference in outcomes between ANCA-positive and ANCA-negative crescentic LN. However, the role of ANCAs in the pathological course of crescentic lupus nephropathy and the effect of ANCAs on long-term outcomes remain to be determined.
