This document presents the guidelines for anti-myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) antibody testing that have been developed following a consensus process built on questionnaire-based surveys, internet contacts, and discussions at workshops of sponsoring Italian Association of Neuroimmunology (AINI) congresses. The main clinical information on anti-MAG antibody polyneuropathy, indications and limits of anti-MAG antibody testing, instructions for result interpretation, and an agreed laboratory protocol (Appendix) are reported for the communicative community of neurologists and clinical pathologists.
本文件介绍了抗髓鞘相关糖蛋白 (MAG) 抗体检测的指南,这些指南是在基于问卷调查、互联网联系以及赞助意大利神经免疫学会 (AINI) 大会研讨会讨论的共识过程中制定的。主要的临床信息包括抗 MAG 抗体多神经病、抗 MAG 抗体检测的适应证和局限性、结果解释说明以及已达成一致的实验室方案(附录),旨在为神经科医生和临床病理学家的交流社区提供参考。
