Across the globe, children with RF-negative polyarticular JIA exhibit differences in clinical features, disease activity, and treatment patterns.
ANA = antinuclear antibodies; SMA = smooth muscle antibodies; anti-LKM1 = antibodies to liver/kidney microsome type 1; AMA = antimitochondrial antibodies; IgG = serum immunoglobulin G level ...
There isn’t a single test that proves somebody has lupus. We often start with an antinuclear antibody (ANA) blood test that screens for autoimmune diseases. Pretty much anyone with lupus is ...
Cardiac MRI can provide information regarding myocardial perfusion. In the 'ischemic cascade' of ischemic heart disease, hypoperfusion will lead first to diastolic and then to systolic ventricular ...
1. Anti-PLA2R Antibody: A highly specific biomarker for primary membranous nephropathy (PMN), helping distinguish it from secondary causes without a biopsy. 2. ANA (Antinuclear Antibodies): Indicative ...
Prior urinalysis was positive for 100 of protein with no RBC or blood. Prior serologies including Hepatitis B Ag, Hepatitis C Ab, HIV and antinuclear antibody (ANA) were all negative. Her spot urine ...
Clinical information at baseline was extracted from patient medical records, including age, sex, antinuclear antibodies (ANA) titer and fluorescence pattern, and other laboratory abnormalities.
to understand the molecular basis of clinical diversity in SSc and explore differences between the hallmark antinuclear autoantibody (ANA) reactivities. Results Our data define a molecular spectrum of ...
The full blood count, renal function and liver function were normal. He had a low titre positive antinuclear antibody (ANA) 1:80. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) was normal, but C-reactive ...
The most common autoimmune marker was anti-nuclear antibody (ANA) (22/36, 61%), followed by lupus anticoagulant (15/30, 50%) and any one marker of autoimmune thyroiditis, namely anti-thyroid ...
