Influence of anticardiolipin and anti-β2 glycoprotein I antibody cutoff values on antiphospholipid syndrome classification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Anticardiolipin (aCL) and anti-beta 2 glycoprotein I (a beta 2GPI) immunoglobulin (Ig) G/IgM antibodies are 2 of the 3 laboratory criteria for classification of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS).

Deep capillary retinal ischemia and high-titer prothrombin-associated antiphospholipid antibodies: A case series of three patients

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2019
Purpose: Acute macular neuroretinopathy has been shown to be due to ischemia of the deep capillary retinal plexus and most cases occur in young women; we hypothesized that there may be an association with antiphospholipid antibodies.

Implications of Antiphospholipid and Antineutrophilic Cytoplasmic Antibodies in the Context of Postinfectious Glomerulonephritis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
While antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) positivity has been documented in some patients with postinfectious glomerulonephritis (PIGN) and is associated with more severe disease, antiphospholipid antibodies (APA) are not known to be a common ...

Arginine mutation alters binding of a human monoclonal antibody to antigens linked to systemic lupus erythematosus and the antiphospholipid syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Objective: Previous studies have shown the importance of somatic mutations and arginine residues in the complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) of pathogenic anti-double-stranded DNA (anti-dsDNA) antibodies in human and murine lupus, and in studies of

Audio-vestibular symptoms in systemic autoimmune diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Immune-mediated inner ear disease can be primary, when the autoimmune response is against the inner ear, or secondary. The latter is characterized by the involvement of the ear in the presence of systemic autoimmune conditions. Sensorineural hearing loss

Hypermetabolism of basal ganglia in chorea associated with antiphospholipid antibodies demonstrated by F-18 FDG

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Radiology, 1997
A brain FDG PET study was performed on a 21-year-old woman with subacute chorea of unknown origin. Associated with her chorea, she had abnormal levels of antiphospholipid antibodies.

The Screening of Antiphospholipid Antibodies in Obstetric Antiphospholipid Syndrome-Like Events: A Regional Perspective

open access: yesGynecology Obstetrics & Reproductive Medicine, 2020
Objective: Obstetric antiphospholipid antibody syndrome is clinically recognized by adverse obstetric outcomes. To determine which antibody level best corresponds to the risk of these clinical outcomes is difficult.

The differential diagnosis of chorea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Chorea is a hyperkinetic movement disorder characterised by excessive spontaneous movements that are irregularly timed, randomly distributed and abrupt. In this article, the authors discuss the causes of chorea, particularly Huntington's disease and the ...

Apoptosis, annexin A5 and anti-annexin A5 antibodies in the antiphospholipid syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Biochemistry, 2013
It has been proposed that apoptosis is one of the mechanisms involved in the generation of antiphospholipid antibodies. The presence of antiphospholipid antibodies is the main laboratory criterion for a definite diagnosis of the antiphospholipid syndrome.

Gastrointestinal symptoms as the first manifestation of antiphospholipid syndrome

open access: yesBMC Gastroenterology, 2021
Background Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an acquired pre-thrombotic autoimmune condition, which produces autoantibodies called antiphospholipid antibodies (APL) against phospholipid-binding plasma proteins. The diagnosis of APS requires at least one
