Clinical significance of antiphospholipid antibodies in Indian scleroderma patients
Rheumatology International, 09/02/09
Gupta R et al. – In patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc), antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) have been reported to be associated with more severe manifestations including digital infarct, gangrene and pulmonary hypertension. But these findings are not consistent in all studies; moreover, there are no data available from Indian subcontinent. The objective of this study is to assess the prevalence of antiphospholipid antibodies in Indian SSc patients and correlate them with clinical and immunological features.
