VPPRN Patient-Powered Research
Urticarial Vasculitis

The graphs below reflect the scores/ratings of patients with urticarial vasculitis compared to the Network as a whole. Here is what we learned about flares, fatigue, pain, symptoms of vasculitis, and members’ current state of vasculitis at the July 2025 check-in:
