  • Title: HLA antigens and uveitis.
    Author: Ohno S, Kimura SJ, O'Connor GR, Char DH.
    Journal: Br J Ophthalmol; 1977 Jan; 61(1):62-4. PubMed ID: 556942.
    Abstract:
    We have studied the antigen frequencies in a group of adult patients with acute and chronic iridocyclitis and chronic, cyclitis. In patients with iridocyclitis a statistically significant increased incidence of HLA-B27 was noted, even in those patients without joint or systemic disease. Patients with chronic iridocyclitis also were noted to have an increased incidence of B27; however, those patients with chronic cyclitis did not. On the basis of HLA-B27 studies there appears to be a fundamental difference between adult and juvenile iridocyclitis.
