Happy 5th Anniversary to The Lancet Rheumatology! We were asked to comment on an amazing FAIRVASC study (thelancet.com/journals/lanrh…) subclassifying patients with AAV. Please see the comment by İlay Berke and myself (thelancet.com/journals/lanrh…) on this landmark study!

I had the pleasure of commenting on this excellent AAV subclassification study with Andreas Kronbichler ✨ published in The Lancet Rheumatology. By the way, this is my first paper with my new affiliation, and it comes just in time for my birthday! 😌 YNP of ERA
