We determined the prevalence and relationship with clinical manifestations of antibodies to thromboplastin (aTP) in 92 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Thirty-two (35%) patients had aTP: 13 (14%) were positive for IgG aTP, 13 (14%) for IgM aTP, and 6 (7%) for both. Patients with aTP had an increased incidence of thrombosis (p = 0.01), thrombocytopenia (p < 0.001), hemolytic anemia (p < 0.001), and fetal losses (p = 0.03). When the IgG and IgM aTP isotypes were analysed separately, the IgG aTP were found to be associated with thrombosis (p < 0.001), thrombocytopenia (p < 0.001), and fetal losses (p = 0.02). The IgM aTP were associated with hemolytic anemia (p < 0.001). A correlation was found between the titers of aTP and those of anticardiolipin antibodies, in both IgG (p < 0.01, r = 0.6) and IgM (p < 0.01, r = 0.64) isotypes, and between the titers of IgG aTP and the diluted Russell's viper venom time used to detect the lupus anticoagulant (p < 0.001, r = 0.42). This test is a reliable, reproducible and sensitive assay for the detection of antiphospholipid antibodies, specially in those patients under anticoagulant therapy.
我们测定了92例系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)患者中凝血活酶抗体(aTP)的患病率及其与临床表现的关系。32例(35%)患者存在aTP:13例(14%)IgG aTP阳性,13例(14%)IgM aTP阳性,6例(7%)两者均阳性。aTP阳性患者的血栓形成发生率增加(p = 0.01)、血小板减少(p < 0.001)、溶血性贫血(p < 0.001)及胎儿丢失发生率增加(p = 0.03)。当分别分析IgG和IgM aTP同种型时,发现IgG aTP与血栓形成(p < 0.001)、血小板减少(p < 0.001)及胎儿丢失(p = 0.02)相关。IgM aTP与溶血性贫血相关(p < 0.001)。在IgG(p < 0.01,r = 0.6)和IgM(p < 0.01,r = 0.64)同种型中,均发现aTP滴度与抗心磷脂抗体滴度之间存在相关性,并且在IgG aTP滴度与用于检测狼疮抗凝物的稀释蝰蛇毒时间之间存在相关性(p < 0.001,r = 0.42)。该检测对于抗磷脂抗体的检测是一种可靠、可重复且敏感的测定方法,尤其适用于接受抗凝治疗的患者。
