Rheumatology, 06/22/09
Hervier B et al. - The existence of aSSA52 in association with other antibodies did not predict the presence of AD. There was no evidence to suggest that aSSA52 antibodies were associated with a specific clinical form of SLE or SSc. In the absence of other autoantibodies, aSSA52 was less associated with the presence of an AD. A positive aSSA52 test is of low diagnostic value for AD. Nevertheless, a longitudinal prospective follow-up study would determine whether or not persistence of these autoantibodies was of use in diagnosing AD.
