[The diagnostic significance of neutrophil adhesive reactions in rheumatoid arthritis].
Literature and original data on 97 RA patients concerning the diagnosis of rheumatoid vasculitis (RV) are presented. Study was made of CIC, rheumatoid factor, migration profiles of skin fenestra, IgG- and C3b-dependent adherence of peripheral blood neutrophils. The latter was found when elevated to relate to RV symptoms which was confirmed by skin biopsy. Feasibility of using the results of the study for RV diagnosis is discussed.
