Sheep Cell Agglutination Test in Chronic Interstitial Pulmonary Fibrosis.
In the last few years we have seen nineteen cases which we have regarded as showing the typical features of chronic interstitial pulmonary fibrosis. More recently, stimulated by our interest in the intrathoracic manifestations of rheumatoid disease, we have carried out the sheep cell agglutination test (S.C.A.T.) at regular intervals as a routine measure. We have been interested to find that th...
متن کاملDiffuse Interstitial Pulmonary Fibrosis in Patients with a Positive Sheep Cell Agglutination Test.
In 1944 Hamman and Rich described an acute form of diffuse interstitial pulmonary fibrosis in four patients who died within six months of the onset of symptoms. Many cases with a similar syndrome have since been reported. The majority of these, however, have run a more chronic course and the outcome has not always been fatal. The disorder has been fully reviewed by Rubin and Lubliner (1957) and...
متن کاملEpidemiology of the sheep cell agglutination test.
Recent research into the nature and significance of rheumatoid serum factors has been largely immunological and biochemical. The epidemiology of these components is virtually unknown. During recent years we have had the opportunity of studying several population samples, and data from these surveys have now been gathered and are presented with particular reference to the epidemiology of the ser...
متن کاملDifferential sheep cell agglutination test in rheumatoid arthritis.
In March, 1948, Rose and others described a test for rheumatoid arthritis which depended on the ability of serum from patients with rheumatoid arthritis to agglutinate " sensitized " sheep erythrocytes in much higher titre than normal sheep erythrocytes. The authors reported results in 110 patients, of whom 27 had active rheumatoid arthritis and 16 inactive rheumatoid arthritis, 3 Still's disea...
متن کاملFamilial Interstitial Pulmonary Fibrosis.
In 1944 Hamman and Rich first described a disease that caused an acute diffuse interstitial fibrosis of the lungs, and which resulted in the death of four patients within six months of the onset of symptoms. Since then countless further cases have been reported in the literature, and our knowledge of the subject has advanced. It is recognized that the interstitial fibrotic process may be locali...
