polyarteritis nodosa group comprising patients with MPA and classical polyarteritis nodosa [Despite all these drawbacks, some broad conclusions can be reached. Papers concerning non‐ANCA‐associated vasculitides were discarded, as were reports that contained less than five patients with the diseases under study (WG and/or MPA) and reports of which an English translation was not available.For the analysis of the non‐randomized studies, using pCyc treatment, data concerning design of pCyc regimen, rate of remissions, relapses, non‐responders, infections, leucopenia, haemorrhagic cystitis, and deaths were extracted, if reported on in the studies. Altogether 413 patients were involved; the majority of them comprised WG, the rest a mixture of Churg Strauss syndrome, classical polyarteritis nodosa, MPA, idiopathic crescentic glomerulonephritis, and collagen vascular disease.
