abstract

to determine the presence of anticardiolipin (acl) antibodies in patients with ischemic events, we designed a case-control study. we studied 33 patients with unstable angina, 33 male patients with myocardial infarction and 34 control subjects with no evidence of ischemic heart disease. plasma samples were assessed for igg anticardiolipin antibodies by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa). the levels of acl were (mean±sd of optical density multiplied by 1000): 624±319, 486±318, and 239±202 for patients with unstable angina, myocardial infarction and controls, respectively (f= 15.74 and p=0.0000). high acl levels were found more often in patients with acute ischemic events.

ANTI CARDIOLIPIN ANTIBODIES IN PATIENTS WITH ISCHEMIC EVENTS

To determine the presence of anticardiolipin (aCL) antibodies in patients with ischemic events, we designed a case-control study. We studied 33 patients with unstable angina, 33 male patients with myocardial infarction and 34 control subjects with no evidence of ischemic heart disease. Plasma samples were assessed for IgG anticardiolipin antibodies by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELI...

Anti-Cardiolipin and Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibodies in Iranian Patients with Behcet's Disease

Background: The prevalence of anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibodies (ANCAs) and anti-Cardiolipin Antibodies (anti-CL Ab) in Behcet’s Disease (BD) and also their roles in vascular involvement is controversial. Objective: To assess the prevalence of ANCAs and anti-CL Ab as well as their correlations with clinical manifestations in Iranian patients with BD. Methods: In this case/control study, th...

Anti-cardiolipin and anti-phosphatidylglycerol antibodies prepared against bacterial phospholipids.

Anti-phosphatidylglycerol and anti-cardiolipin antisera were prepared in rabbits by using phospholipids purified from Micrococcus lysodeikticus. Anti-phosphatidylglycerol antibodies were found in antisera when either phosphatidylglycerol or cardiolipin were used as immunogens, but adsorption studies indicated they were not similar. Antibodies which reacted with phosphatidylinositol and phosphat...

Prevalence of Anti-Cardiolipin and Anti-β2 Glycoprotein Antibodies in Indian Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Patients

Anti-phospholipid antibodies (APA) like anti-cardiolipin antibodies (ACA) and anti-β2glycoprotien (anti-β2 GP) are important cause of venous and arterial thrombosis and other occlusive vascular diseases. The prevalence of these antibodies in SLE patients at the time of diagnosis is not known in Indian SLE patients. This study was conducted to evaluate the prevalence of ACA and anti-β2 GP autoan...
