About this service

The Anti-Nuclear Antibodies (ANA) test is a laboratory test used to detect the presence of antibodies that target components of the cell nucleus. This test is considered an important tool in diagnosing various autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis. Positive results indicate abnormal immune activity, helping doctors guide treatment and monitor the patient’s health. It is always recommended to interpret the results in conjunction with clinical symptoms and the patient’s medical history.

Purpose Test

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Affects multiple organs in the body.
Rheumatoid Arthritis: Causes inflammation of the joints.
Sjögren's Syndrome: Affects the salivary and tear glands.
Multiple Sclerosis: Affects the nervous system.
Vasculitis and Other Conditions: Positive results may indicate abnormal immune activity, but they should be interpreted in conjunction with clinical symptoms and the patient’s medical history.

Recommended groups

Individuals with unexplained immune symptoms: Such as persistent fever, fatigue, or unexplained weight loss.
Patients with skin symptoms: Such as rashes, especially the "butterfly rash" on the face.
Individuals with joint pain: Or unexplained swelling, which may indicate arthritis.
People with respiratory issues: Such as difficulty breathing or chronic cough.
Patients showing internal organ-related symptoms: Such as kidney or nervous system problems.
Individuals with a family history of autoimmune diseases: Which increases the risk of developing these conditions.

Symptoms indicative

Persistent Fever: Without a clear cause.
General Fatigue: Or unexplained tiredness.
Joint Pain: Or swelling in the joints.
Skin Rash: Such as the "butterfly rash" on the face.
Weight Changes: Unexplained weight loss or gain.
Respiratory Issues: Such as persistent cough or difficulty breathing.
Neurological Symptoms: Such as severe headache or muscle weakness.
Kidney-Related Symptoms: Such as swelling in the ankles or high blood pressure.

Normal Levels

Negative result: Indicates no antibodies are present, and values below 1:40 are generally considered negative.
Interpretation of positive results: When results are positive, a thorough evaluation by a specialist doctor is required, as positive results may indicate various medical conditions, but do not necessarily indicate a specific disease. It is always important to interpret the results in the context of the patient’s symptoms and medical history.
