Article Synopsis
- Antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) primarily targets small- and medium-sized arteries, leading to conditions like rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, particularly affecting the kidneys.
- Infections are known triggers for this autoimmune disorder, and recent studies suggest a link between SARS-CoV-2 infection and acute kidney injury (AKI).
- The text presents a specific case of a 61-year-old man who developed new-onset diffuse proliferative ANCA-associated glomerulonephritis following COVID-19.
Prior research has rarely examined how people understand or react to the names of psychological treatments. In the case of evidence-based psychotherapies for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), such reactions may be relevant to the low rates of uptake of such treatments. Participants who screened positive for PTSD (n = 887) completed questions assessing their initial reactions to PTSD treatment names as well as how a different name would affect their openness to treatment.
