From: The isotype repertoire of antibodies against novel UH-RA peptides in rheumatoid arthritis
Percentage of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with normal and elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) in relation to the number of anti-UH-RA.21 antibody isotypes present (among immunoglobulin [Ig] G, M, and A). The presence of anti-UH-RA.21 antibodies of the IgG, IgM, and IgA isotypes was determined in 269 samples of patients with RA with data on ESR provided. An elevation of ESR was defined as >20 mm/h for men and >30 mm/h for women
