In addition, the number of men in the cohort was low, and a high proportion of them reported multiple pregnancy losses. It remains unclear whether this reflects a true increase in pregnancy loss rate for fathers with vasculitis or "simply reflects the greater interest that these particular men might have in responding to such a survey," Dr. Clowse and her colleagues said.
This study was supported by the Vasculitis Foundation and the Vasculitis Clinical Research Consortium, which receives support from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, the National Center for Research Resources, and the Office of Rare Diseases Research. No financial conflicts of interest were reported.
