Abstract excerpt

We determined serum alpha 1-antitrypsin phenotypes and levels in 281 patients with classical or definite rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The prevalence of the MZ phenotype in our patients with RA was not increased, as there were only 3 MZ cases (1.1% of all cases and 1.4% of seropositive cases) compared to the 3% prevalence in controls. The FM phenotype was detected in 6 cases, a prevalence rate of 2.1%, significantly...
