Disease name] may be caused by [cause1], [cause2], or [cause3].


==Overview==
OR


==Causes==
Common causes of [disease] include [cause1], [cause2], and [cause3].
===Primary RPGN===
RPGN may be a primary condition. The diagnosis of primary glomerulonephritis is made when the clinical syndrome of the disease complies with the new classification of RPGN based on the 5 types of disease.
Nonetheless, ruling out other causes of RPGN is necessary before the diagnosis of primary RPGN is made.


The cause of ANCA levels in patients with ANCA-associated glomerulonephritis is not known. Environmental and genetic factors have been postulated. It is believed that infectious etiologies, such as arboviruses, may be contributory. These findings are based only on observations and small studies that patients with ANCA-associated glomerulonephritis are more commonly diagnosed during “flu season”, flu-like prodrome is usually the most common presenting symptoms of these patients, and presence of serological proof of previous arbovirus infection. Further disease progression in ANCA-associated diseases into clinical syndromes of polyarteritis nodosa and Wegener granulomatosis has been postulated to be caused by activation of autoantibody-induced leukocytes.<ref name="pmid2221646">{{cite journal| author=Falk RJ, Hogan S, Carey TS, Jennette JC| title=Clinical course of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody-associated glomerulonephritis and systemic vasculitis.
