Condition: TAKAYASU ARTERITIS · Sponsor: Aimin Dang
Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a chronic large-vessel vasculitis that mainly affects the aorta and its major branches. The epidemiology and pathophysiology of TA is still unclear in China, although many studies have been done. Our previous study supporting by National Natural Science Foundation of China indicated the cytokines such as hs-CRP, NT-proBNP and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) can be used to monitor TA activity, and HLA gene alleles were associated with TA in Chinese han population. Further investigations with larger samples are needed to fully understand the a pathophysiology of TA. The purpose of this study is to build a Chinese national registry system for TA to obtain real-world information, such as current status of characteristics, diagnosis, disease activity, the severity of disease, treatment and outcomes of Chinese TA patients. To analysis and development of effective disease monitoring and treatment strategies.
