ReplyDeleteYes. Sure.
Nope. Unsure. :p
ReplyDeleteI'm fine with the p-type, but the c-type? "c-ANCA" sounds like "kanka," which is a slang term in Turkish, short for "kan kardeşi" or "blood brother," and you can remember Wegener is your brother but with granulomatosis you're on your own unless it's a blood-related problem?

They are both inflammatory blood vessel disorders, although not blood per se.
