Abstract
The study aimed to investigate the clinical significance of anti-rods and rings (anti-RR) antibodies in antinuclear antibodies (ANAs) test samples retrospectively. The laboratory data and clinical details of patients with positive anti-RR antibodies were collected and analysed between December 2017 and May 2022 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University. A total of 72 665 patients were tested for ANAs. There were 45 632 patients discovered with positive ANAs (62.80%), only 131 patients presented with anti-RR antibodies (0.18%), among which only 68 patients were hospitalized patients with a definitive diagnosis. Among the 68 patients with a definitive diagnosis, 8 of 68 (11.8%) had autoimmune diseases, and 19 of 68 (27.9%) had renal diseases. Other diseases included liver disease, pulmonary disease, cerebral ischemia, cerebral infarction, chronic cardiac failure and venous thromboembolism. The detection rate of high titre(≥1:1000) anti-RR antibodies is significantly higher in autoimmune diseases.
