Résumé
Objeictivie To investigate the diagnostic value of anti-mutated citrullinated vimentin (anti-MCV) antibody, anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies and glucose-6-phospha-teisomerase (GP1) for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods Anti-MCV antibody, GPI and anti-CCP antibody were detected in serum samples of 109 RA patients, 24 non-RA rheumatic diseases patients and 19 healthy blood donors. The sensitivity and specificity of these parameters for the diagnosis of RA were analyzed. Results Both the positive rate and average cut off concentration of anti-MCV and GPI in RA were higher than those of non-RA rheumatic diseases or healthy controls (P<0.05). A significant difference was found between anti-MCV and GPI in RA patients. The most sensitive and specific parameter in RA was anti-MCV (99.1%) and anti-CCP (90.7%) respectively, but, when anti-MCV combined with anti-CCP, or GPI or anti-CCP and GPI, the specificity could be up to 98.1%. Coniclusions Anti-MCV, anti-CCP and GPI alone or in combination may be valuable parameters for the diagnosis of RA.
