Abstract
To identify diagnostic utilities of Anti citrullinated protein (ACCP) and Rheumatoid factor (RF) are autoantibodies (Abs directly against an self-individual antigens), Analytical study. The questioner reported for 50 patients with RA were collected from Department of Rheumatology¸ AL˗Sader Teaching Hospital. Serum levels of RF & (ACCP) Abs were determinated by enzyme ˗ linked immunosorbent assay”, while the level of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) was determined by westergreen method. Distribution of RA occur in females more than males which reached (80%) & (20%) respectively according to the patients group. The patients divided according to the age into three groups (<30)¸ (30˗50) & (>50). The percent for these groups were (16%)¸ (52%) & (32%). Among the 50 patients with RA¸ CCP and ESR 49 patients (98%) tested positive for (ACCP) antibodies¸ and 22 patients (44%) tested positive for RF. and 37 patients(74% ) tested increasing levels of ESR in RA patients. The mean value of (ACCP) & ESR shows highly significance (P<0∙05), while the RF serum levels increase significantly. Demonstrate the (ACCP) antibodies assay is a useful test for diagnosing RA. However, the use of RF and (ACCP)auto- antibodies in combination further elevated the diagnostic value for RA.
