==Overview==
'''Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) ''' is an ill-defined [[autoimmune disease]] characterized by pauci-immune, necrotizing, small-vessel [[vasculitis]] without clinical or pathological evidence of necrotizing granulomatous [[inflammation]]. Because many different organ systems may be involved, a wide range of symptoms are possible in MPA.


==Historical Perspective==
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis overview|Overview]]==
*[Disease name] was first discovered by [scientist name], a [nationality + occupation], in [year] during/following [event].
 
*In [year], [gene] mutations were first identified in the pathogenesis of [disease name].
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis historical perspective|Historical Perspective]]==
*In [year], the first [discovery] was developed by [scientist] to treat/diagnose [disease name].
 
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis classification|Classification]]==
==Classification==
*[Disease name] may be classified according to [classification method] into [number] subtypes/groups:
:*[group1]
:*[group2]
:*[group3]
*Other variants of [disease name] include [disease subtype 1], [disease subtype 2], and [disease subtype 3].
==Pathophysiology==
*The pathogenesis of [disease name] is characterized by [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3].
*The [gene name] gene/Mutation in [gene name] has been associated with the development of [disease name], involving the [molecular pathway] pathway.
*On gross pathology, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
*On microscopic histopathological analysis, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].


==Cause==
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis pathophysiology|Pathophysiology]]==
This condition, the clinical picture of which may include many features of systemic lupus erythematosis, has been reported to have been caused by [[antibiotics]] and also by certain [[infection]]s, though, as with many autoimmune diseases, the causes remain to a large extent unknown.


==Differentiating [disease name] from other Diseases==
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis causes|Causes]]==
*[Disease name] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 1], [clinical feature 2], and [clinical feature 3], such as:
:*[Differential dx1]
:*[Differential dx2]
:*[Differential dx3]
==Epidemiology and Demographics==
* The prevalence of [disease name] is approximately [number or range] per 100,000 individuals worldwide.
* In [year], the incidence of [disease name] was estimated to be [number or range] cases per 100,000 individuals in [location].
===Age===
*Patients of all age groups may develop [disease name].
*[Disease name] is more commonly observed among patients aged [age range] years old.
*[Disease name] is more commonly observed among [elderly patients/young patients/children].
===Gender===
*[Disease name] affects men and women equally.
*[Gender 1] are more commonly affected with [disease name] than [gender 2].
* The [gender 1] to [Gender 2] ratio is approximately [number > 1] to 1.
===Race===
*There is no racial predilection for [disease name].
*[Disease name] usually affects individuals of the [race 1] race.
*[Race 2] individuals are less likely to develop [disease name].
==Risk Factors==
*Common risk factors in the development of [disease name] are [risk factor 1], [risk factor 2], [risk factor 3], and [risk factor 4].
== Natural History, Complications and Prognosis==
*The majority of patients with [disease name] remain asymptomatic for [duration/years].
*Early clinical features include [manifestation 1], [manifestation 2], and [manifestation 3].
*If left untreated, [#%] of patients with [disease name] may progress to develop [manifestation 1], [manifestation 2], and [manifestation 3].
*Common complications of [disease name] include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].
*Prognosis is generally [excellent/good/poor], and the [1/5/10­year mortality/survival rate] of patients with [disease name] is approximately [#%].


==Diagnosis==
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis differential diagnosis|Differentiating Any Disease from other Diseases]]==
===Diagnostic criteria===


===History and Symptoms===
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis epidemiology and demographics|Epidemiology and Demographics]]==


===Physical examination===
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis risk factors|Risk Factors]]==  


==[[Microscopic polyangiitis screening|Screening]]==


===Laboratory findings===
==[[Microscopic polyangiitis natural history, complications and prognosis|Natural History, Complications and Prognosis]]==
Laboratory tests show an increased sedimentation rate, reduced red blood count, antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (p-ANCA) directed against [MPO(a constituent of [[neutrophil]] granules), and [[protein]] and red blood cells in the [[urine]]


The test for [[anti-glomerular basement membrane antibody]] (GBM), which is positive in [[Goodpasture's syndrome]], is negative.
==Diagnosis==

===Imaging Findings===
*There are no [imaging study] findings associated with [disease name].
*[Imaging study 1] is the imaging modality of choice for [disease name].
*On [imaging study 1], [disease name] is characterized by [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].
*[Imaging study 2] may demonstrate [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].
=== Other Diagnostic Studies ===
*[Disease name] may also be diagnosed using [diagnostic study name].
*Findings on [diagnostic study name] include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].
==Treatment==
==Treatment==
===Medical Therapy===

The customary treatment involves long term dosage of [[prednisone]], alternated or combined with [[cytotoxic]] drugs, such as [[cyclophosphamide]] or [[azathioprine]]. [[Plasmapheresis]] may also be indicated in the acute setting to remove ANCA antibodies.
