There was a statistically significant relationship between NSAID usage and having hypertension (p 0.013, OR 2.064, 95% CI 1.16 - 3.65). 78 of the antihypertensive and 88% of the analgesic/NSAIDs users explained the purpose of the drug usage properly. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis
Since there is no proven treatment for the GIN yet, we can carefully suggest that moderate to high dosage corticosteroid can be helpful for prognosis in case of acute granulomatous interstitial nephritis of patients with AKI. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The prognosis for bone cancer depends on the type of cancer and the extent of spread. Ankylosing Spondylitis Ankylosing spondylitis is a type of arthritis that causes chronic inflammation of the spine. [medicinenet.com]
Etiology
As long as we can carefully exclude infectious diseases as the cause of granulomatous lesion, acute granulomatous interstitial nephritis can be treated with steroid regardless of the etiologies. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Epidemiology
Abstract The authors performed a systematic review to summarize the epidemiologic evidence on the association between use of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and the risk of dementia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology of aseptic meningitis is uncertain, and there are probably multiple mechanisms involved. The condition has been observed in all age-groups and can occur after the use of a wide spectrum of pharmacologic agents. [mdmag.com]
Consequently, an appreciation for the risk factors and pathophysiology of NSAID-induced renal function abnormalities is required for optimal use of these drugs. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
