We have studied the relationship between MHC class II antigens and PAPS in 19 patients from the south of Spain. Univariant analysis showed an association between PAPS and HLA-DQ7 (47% vs 25%1 P = 0.03), DR4 (32% vs 16%; P = 0.08) and DQ3 (63% vs 39%; P = 0.04). However, multivariant analysis confirmed the association with DQ7 (RR = 2.5; CI 80%:1.3-4.7) and DR4 (RR = 2.2; CI 80%:1.1-4.4) but not with DQ3. When we introduced DRw53 into this analysis, we noticed a DR4 confounding effect, with DQ7 (RR = 3.1; CI 80%: 1.7-5.8) and Drw53 (RR = 2.3; CI 80%: 1.2-4.4) remaining as the most important HLA antigens related to PAPS. In conclusion, in PAPS patients from the South of Spain, HLA-DQ7 antigen showed the highest relative risk for PAPS, followed by DRw53. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini!
