Systemic sclerosis and organ - specific antibodies.

CONCLUSIONS    The prevalence of organ-specific antibodies in SSc patients is relatively high.  The prevalence of AMAs is higher in the lcSSc than in the dcSSc group and is strongly associated with ACAs. Therefore patients with systemic sclerosis should be evaluated for coexisting ATD and PBC. PMID: 27848930 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
