A cohort analytic study was performed to investigate serum IgA-class antibodies against Chlamydia in 24 patients with chlamydial-induced arthritis (CIA). IgA-class antibodies against chlamydial antigens were positive (titre greater than or equal to 1:16) in 23 of the 24 IgG-positive CIA-patients (96%) in contrast to 16 of 40 patients (40%) with other rheumatic diseases (ankylosing spondylitis n = 6; undifferentiated arthritis n = 11; rheumatoid arthritis n = 12; degenerative joint disease n = 11), also positive for IgG-class chlamydial antibodies. Both the presence of specific IgA-antibodies and their geometric mean titre (1:28 vs. 1:4) differed significantly (p less than 0.001) between the two groups.
进行了一项队列分析研究,以调查24例衣原体诱导性关节炎(CIA)患者血清中抗衣原体的IgA类抗体。24例IgG阳性的CIA患者中有23例(96%)抗衣原体抗原的IgA类抗体呈阳性(滴度大于或等于1:16),相比之下,40例其他风湿性疾病患者(强直性脊柱炎n = 6;未分化关节炎n = 11;类风湿性关节炎n = 12;退行性关节病n = 11)中,同样IgG类衣原体抗体呈阳性的患者有16例(40%)。两组之间特异性IgA抗体的存在及其几何平均滴度(1:28对1:4)差异均有统计学意义(p<0.001)。
