recurrent abortion is a critical problem in which many factors play a crucial role such as anticordiolipin antibody and antiphospholipid antibody. this study was conducted to evaluate the frequency of anticardiolipin antibody and antiphospholipid antibody in pregnancy failures in women with the history of recurrent pregnancy loss. in 154 women with the history of two or more recurrent pregnancy...

patients with malignancy are at higher risk of thrombotic complications due to the hypercoagulability state. our objective in this study was to assess the serum concentrations of homocysteine, anti phospholipid antibodies, and anti cardiolipin in patients with benign and malignant breast tumors and study the effect of chemotherapy on the serum levels of these markers. a case control study was c...

Antiphospholipid antibodies (APLA) may be detected in normal pregnancies and also may cause thrombosis, recurrent fetal loss, placental infarction and preeclampsia. In the present study the possible differences in APLA titer between healthy pregnant women and preeclampsia cases without history of thrombosis was examined. The APLA titer in 50 healthy pregnant women with 50 preeclampsia cases wit...

background: the clinical significance of antiphospholipid antibodies in patients with chronic hepatitis c virus (hcv) and some other viral infections is controversial. objective: to study the prevalence of anticardiolipin antibody (acla) and antibeta2glycoproteini antibody (antibeta2gpi antibody) in hcv and hepatitis b virus (hbv) infected patients and its association with liver clinical parame...

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...

Background: Graves’ disease is an autoimmune disease, characterized by the presence of antibodies directed to TSH receptor or nearby regions as well as antibodies to double strands DNA (dsDNA) anticardiolipin and nuclear antibodies. This study evaluated anticardiolipin and rheumatoid factor, such as IgA and IgM antibodies in patients with Graves’ disease. Patients and methods: Anticardiolipin a...

in order to determine the role of different anti-phospholipid antibodies as an etiologic factor in recurrent pregnancy failure, a prospective study was done on one-hundred and thirty-eight women who had unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (group i) with one-hundred well-matched women with normal reproductive outcome allocated as control group (gil). sera from 138 patients and 100 controls were...

the central immunological disturbance in systemic lupus erythematosus (sle) is autoantibody production. some of these antibodies affecting components of the cell nucleus are the major characteristics of sle. the present study was aimed to assess importance of anticardiolipin (acl) antibody and its association with clinical state in sle patients. a cross sectional study was performed on 100 pati...
