Identify the classic autoantibody marker most strongly associated with each of the following clinical diagnoses.

  • Primary biliary cholangitisAnti-mitochondrial antibodies
  • Autoimmune hepatitisAnti-smooth muscle antibodies
  • Primary sclerosing cholangitisPerinuclear anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (p-ANCA)
  • Celiac diseaseAnti-tissue transglutaminase IgA antibodies

Cevap

Primary biliary cholangitis matches with Anti-mitochondrial antibodies, Autoimmune hepatitis with Anti-smooth muscle antibodies, Primary sclerosing cholangitis with p-ANCA, and Celiac disease with Anti-tissue transglutaminase IgA.
Each of the listed immune-mediated conditions has a distinct, high-yield serologic profile required for board examinations. Primary biliary cholangitis is famously associated with anti-mitochondrial antibodies. Autoimmune hepatitis (Type 1) features anti-smooth muscle antibodies. Primary sclerosing cholangitis, which has a strong link to inflammatory bowel disease, is associated with perinuclear anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (p-ANCA). Finally, Celiac disease relies on anti-tissue transglutaminase IgA antibodies for initial serologic screening.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the underlying pathophysiology and known serologic markers for the listed gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary disorders.
Specific autoantibodies are identified for each condition based on classic clinical associations.
Identifying the correct serologic marker is essential for the diagnosis of these immune-mediated diseases.
