Pættir úr meingerð iktsýki ar með hækkun á IgA RF fá iktsýki en aðrir kenni sér aldrei neins meins. LOKAORÐ Eins og fram hefur komið getur iktsýki verið mjög misjafnlega alvarlegur sjúkdómur. Sjúklingar með hækkun á IgA RF snemma á sjúkdómsferlin- um fá að jafnaði slæman sjúkdóm og meiri lið- skemmdir en þeir sem ekki hafa hækkun á þessum gigtarþætti. Enn á þó eftir að gera framsýnar sam- anburðarrannsóknir til að kanna hvort hægt er að bæta horfur IgA RF jákvæðra sjúklinga með sterk- ari lyfjameðferð í upphafi sjúkdóms. Rannsóknir hafa einnig sýnt að eitilfrumusam- setning sjúklinga með slæma iktsýki og hækkun á IgA RF er önnur en þeirra sem eru IgA RF nei- kvæðir. Þetta getur bent til þess að meingerð IgA RF-jákvæðrar iktsýki sé önnur en IgA RF neikvæða sjúkdómsins. Þannig má leiða líkur að því að ikt- sýki sé ekki einn sjúkdómur, heldur að minnsta kosti tveir eða þrír sjúkdómar. Frekari rannsókna er þörf til að kanna þá tilgátu. HEIMILDIR 1. Spector TD.
