title: Systemic vasculitides: a critical digest of the most recent literature.
abstract: Herewith we provide our annual digest of the recent literature on systemic vasculitides. In this manuscript, we reviewed all the articles published during the last 12 months on large-, medium- and small-vessel vasculitis and selected the most relevant studies regarding the epidemiology, pathogenesis and management of systemic vasculitis. In particular, we focused the attention on giant cell arteritis, ANCA-associated vasculitis and cryoglobulinaemia.
