| Abstrakt: | The course of 81 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who had sera tested for antibody to extractable nuclear antigen (ENA) was studied to determine the effect of the presence of antiENA antibody on survivorship. There were no differences in percent survival between the patients with and without antibody to ENA or those with and without antibody to the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) component of ENA. We conclude that there is no prognostic advantage to the presence of either antiENA or antiRNP antibody in patients with SLE. |
