The plenary session on clinically relevant outcomes in systemic vasculitis emphasized the significance of monitoring creatinine, haematuria and proteinuria for predicting renal outcomes, recovery of kidney function in severe ANCA glomerulonephritis and outcomes post-kidney transplantation in anti-glomerular basement membrane disease. These findings have the potential to enhance clinical practice by refining prognostication and treatment strategies. Future research gaps include exploring the predictive role of proteinuria and understanding the impact of different clinical phenotypes on disease outcomes in Takayasu arteritis.

Unlabelled: Urinary retention is a common urological emergency requiring catheterization. However, follow-up management remains poorly defined, particularly regarding post-obstruction hyperdiuresis (POHD), which may lead to complications such as hypovolemia and electrolyte disturbances. Our mini review of PODS identified nine relevant studies involving 665 patients.
