The positive predictive value of a positive ANA and its titer for a rheumatological diagnosis, with and without accompanying symptoms was evaluated.#Results:A total of 230 patients were included (82% women, age 47.7 卤 14.1 years [range 18-84]). Family medicine and the general outpatient ...
The study population included all patients for whom an ANA was ordered at UT Southwestern Medical Center January 1, 2010 to June 30, 2017. The titer and pattern of the ANA as well as the results of ENA or anti-dsDNA testing were obtained. Patient characteristics included age and sex. ...
Abnormal laboratory findings included an elevated anti-titer and positive speckled pattern ANA (x80), but without other manifestations or signs of SLE. analysis revealed that the patient's serum reacted with fixed endothelial in addition to keratinocytes and peripheral blood neutrophils. This case was...
The geometric mean titer (GMT) of HPV16 was 19.6 (95%CI 10.1‐38.0) and of HPV18 8.6 (95%CI 2.7‐27.5) DNA copies/human cell. HPV16 and HPV18 load did not differ significantly between HIV‐negative and ‐positive MSM ( P ?=?0.7; P ?=?0.8, respectively). In multivariable analyses ...
ANA testing is frequently positive in patients with fibromyalgia.Consequently, the ANA alone is not a reliable tool for discriminating non-inflammatory conditions from autoimmune diseases.Most patients with low-titer posi-tive ANAs have no other detectable autoan-tibodies,and additional autoantibody ...
The maximum observed ADA titer in obinutuzumab-pretreated patients was 1:270, while ADA titers were in general higher in patients who were not pretreated with obinutuzumab, with a maximal observed titer of 1:196,830 (study S1). In the obinutuzumab-pretreated population, cibisatamab exposure was...
(ANA)and liver function were analyzed.Results All 20 patients were positive for ANA and showed granular cytoplasm patterns,the levels of titer were from 1 ∶320 to 1 ∶1000;The levels of alkaline phosphatase(ALP)and γ-glutamyltransferase(GGT)were markedly higher than alanine aminofransferase(ALT...
Autoimmunity in hepatitis C virus carriers: Involvement of ferritin and prolactin and non-organ-specific autoantibodies (RF, SMA, 尾2GPI IgA antibody and ANA) in Brazilian individuals chronically infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV)... Gabriel,M.,Sousa,... - 《Autoimmunity Reviews》 被引量: ...
This supposition is supported by Beer and Billingham's (3) data which revealed that only 1 of 40 similar infants studied between 3 and 20 months of age demonstrated anti-D antibody. Presumably the antibody response may only be of sufficient titer for detection for a short period of tlme. ...
