“…The occurrence of thromboembolic event(s)i np atients testing positive for LupusA nticoagulant (LA)o rm edium-high titer β 2-glycoprotein I-dependent anticardiolipin( aCL) antibodies on twoormore occasions at least six weeks apartcurrentlydefines antiphospholipid syndrome (1).These classification criteria arethe result of an experts' consensus meeting and constitute an important stepforwarddue to their contribution to better defining the syndrome'sclinical features.However,the laboratory profile must still be improved, as both LA and aCLantibodies are non-specific tests that lacks tandardization (2)(3)(4). That is, LA can detect antibodiestoboth human prothrombin (5) and human β 2-glycoprotein I(3), while conventional aCL assaycan detect a rangeo fa ntibodies, including anti-human β 2-glycoprotein I antibodies (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11), antibodies to bovine β 2GPI, authentic aCL antibodies (antibodies directlyb indingc ardiolipin)a nd antibodies directedt oo therc ardiolipin-binding plasma proteins (12)(13)(14).…”

“…В то же время процент IgG-аКЛ -позитивности при ис следовании в Варшаве оказался заметно ниже и составил при СКВ -29%, при СКВ+АФС-33%, при ПАФС -39%. Эти данные в какой-то мере согласуются с результатами, приводимыми A.Tincani [20] по определению аКЛ в 24 лабораториях Европы. Исследование 10 сывороток с результатами, выраженными в международных единицах (ME), с использованием собственных тестов, показало, что 100% сопоставимость по IgG-аКЛ имела место только в 6 из 24 лабораторий.…”

“…Some patients Tests for anticardiolipin antibody by ELISA and for lupus anticoagulant, usually by screening with activated partial thromboplastin time or dilute Russell viper venom time, are the standard tests for diagnosis of APS (10). Considerable variance in the performance of each mandates repeating tests several times in laboratories of known competence (23,96,98). Transiently positive antiphospholipid antibody tests may appear in the setting of various infections or medications: it is important to screen patients on more than one occasion at least 6 weeks apart to document persistent autoantibody (99).…”
