Objectives

Narrative objectives1

This study aims to elucidate disease specific pathophysiological mechanisms in vasculitis syndromes by obtaining molecular data from blood and tissue samples collected for definitive diagnosis. Furthermore, the study seeks to identify factors correlating with disease activity and treatment response in each condition and to evaluate their utility in diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
