This article reports that clinico immunological study of serum and synovial fluid antinuclear factors in rheumatoid arthritis and other arthritides. Samples of serum and synovial fluid from 161 patients with various forms of arthiritis have been examined for presence of antinuclear factors (ANF). In rheumatoid arthritis 28 percent of patients had ANF in their serum and 22 percent ANF was found in synovial fluid. In ten patients ANF was present in the serum alone. In three patients ANF was [resent in only synovial fluid and in one of these patients the finding of ANF only one of two joints examined is adduced as evidence in favor of local production of ANF in synovial tissue. |
