title: [Haptoglobin phenotype in patients with spondyloarthritis and healthy individuals].
abstract: Haptoglobin (Hp) phenotype distribution was evaluated in 95 patients with seronegative spondylarthritis and 100 normal controls. The incidence of three Hp types was virtually the same in acute patients and controls. Reactive arthritis was associated with Hp2-1 type, psoriatic arthritis with Hp1-1 type, ankylosing spondylarthritis with Hp2-2 type. The authors suggest that the presence of Hp2-2 type is one of genetic factors of seronegative spondylarthritis.
