The study presents the results of predicting role of anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies in rheumatoid arthritis, compared to rheumatoid factor. 32 patients with rheumatoid arthritis were identified from a retrospective chart review. The results of our study show that presence of the rheumatoid factor has less diagnostic and prognostic significance than the anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide, and suggests its superiority in predicting an erosive disease course.
该研究呈现了与类风湿因子相比，抗环瓜氨酸肽抗体在类风湿关节炎中的预测作用的结果。通过回顾性病历审查确定了32例类风湿关节炎患者。我们的研究结果表明，类风湿因子的存在在诊断和预后方面的意义小于抗环瓜氨酸肽，并表明其在预测侵蚀性疾病进程方面具有优越性。
