    Abstract:
    The aim of study was to detect antinuclear antibodies (ANA) using indirect immunofluorescence assay (IIFA), linear immunoassay (LIA), chemiluminescence microparticle immunoassay (CMIA), multiple microbead immunoassay (MBI) and to compare these four methods in the performance of diagnosing systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Serum ANA were detected in 147 SLE cases and 42 healthy controls (HCs). The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and agreement, the area under the curve of four methods in diagnosing were calculated. Finally, a diagnostic model through logistic regression was constructed. The sensitivity of CMIA and IIFA in diagnosing SLE was 89.08% and 89.12%, higher than other two methods (P < .01), while highest specificity lied in CMIA (95.24%) and LIA (95.24%). The accuracy was highest in CMIA (91.01%), and lowest in LIA (83.07%). CMIA and the other three methods had good agreement, especially with LIA (κ = .798, 95% CI, 0.708-0.88). ANA-IIFA (OR = 1.016, P < .001) and anti-SSA antibodies (OR = 1.017, P = .043) were finally included in the SLE diagnostic model, with AUC value of 0.964 (95% CI, 0.936-0.991). SLE patients exhibited 14 various ANA patterns, especially AC-1, AC-4, and AC-5. Antibodies against SSA and dsDNA were mostly seen with AC-1 and AC-4 patterns, while antibodies against RNP, Sm, SSA, dsDNA, nucleosome and PO were most frequently observed with AC-5 pattern in SLE. CMIA method is a reliable screening test for detections of antibodies related to SLE. Using ANA-IIFA and anti-SSA antibodies by CMIA can discriminate SLE patients from HCs effectively.
