چکیده

Introduction To determine the clinical significance of anti-CCP (anticitrullinated cyclic peptide) in Korean patients with JRA. Rheumatoid Factor (RF) is a non-specific serologic test in juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) but the anti-perinuclear autoantibodies are found in adult rheumatoid arthritis (RA) recently. One of these autoantibodies can detect epitopes called citrulline. The authors want to know that these autoantibodies can be applied in Korean JRA.
