摘要

Antinuclear antibodies (ANAs) are a serological hallmark of systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARDs); however, few studies have investigated their post-treatment levels. The mechanism by which ANA titers are upregulated in SARDs remains unclear. We assessed factors associated with the ANA titer after treatment. In this retrospective study, we analyzed the clinical database of Zhongshan Hospital, Medical College of Xiamen. Demographic data and baseline and 12-month post-treatment ANA titers were collected. Bivariate and multivariate analyses were performed to determine the factors associated with the ANA titer. This study identified 31,923 patients who underwent ANA assay for SARDs screening, and a total of 1043 patients were included in the study. Approximately 16% of the patients showed a decrease in the serological ANA titer. Younger patients (= 60 years). Having a baseline ANA titer > 1:10,000 was associated with an increase likelihood of a decrease in the serological ANA titer compared with baseline ANA titer 1:10,000, 1:3200 and 1:1000 (P < 0.001). We found that a decrease in the serum ANA titer at 12 months after treatment for SARDs is associated with age and ANA baseline titers.
