Diagnostic Performance of Anti-dsDNA Tests by Indirect Immunofluorescence and Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Abstract:Background
Several laboratory techniques for anti double-stranded (ds) DNA detection in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are available, with variable diagnostic performance. We aimed to evaluate anti-dsDNA’s diagnostic performance by indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (EIA).
Methods
We conducted a single-center retrospective (2015 to 2020) study. Patients with anti-dsDNA tests by IIF and… Show more
