{"product_id":"autoimmune-assessment-comprehensive-3431","title":"Autoimmune Assessment – Comprehensive","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Autoimmune Assessment Panel is an advanced test designed to detect autoimmune diseases, in which the immune system mistakenly targets the body’s own tissues. It identifies key biomarkers crucial for diagnosing conditions such As Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, and Sjögren’s Syndrome. For example, elevated ANA levels are commonly seen in systemic diseases like Lupus, while RF is typically higher in Rheumatoid Arthritis, helping to differentiate it from other forms of arthritis. Anti-CCP antibodies are highly specific to Rheumatoid Arthritis and can also provide insight into the disease’s severity and progression. The Extractable Nuclear Antigen (ENA) test identifies antibodies linked to various connective tissue diseases, while dsDNA is particularly associated with Lupus. Anti-Smooth Muscle Antibodies (SMA) are often found in autoimmune liver conditions, and Anti-Mitochondrial Antibodies (AMA) are linked to primary biliary cholangitis. Because autoimmune diseases often present with symptoms like joint pain, fatigue, and rashes, early diagnosis can be challenging. The Autoimmune Assessment Panel ensures early detection, allowing for more effective management and the prevention of complications in the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTest details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTest code:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3431\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Routine Pathology\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKit requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e SST Serum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollection method:\u003c\/strong\u003e CI05.15.01 SST Collection Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTurnaround time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 Business Days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is measured\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul class=\"analytes\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003ea-CCP Abs\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eAnti-Mitochondrial Antibodies (AMA)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eAnti-Nuclear Antibodies\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eAnti-Smooth Muscle Antibodies (SMA)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eDouble Strand DNA (dsDNA)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eExtractable Nuclear Antigen (ENA)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eRheumatoid Factor (RF)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon clinical applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul class=\"common-conditions\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Autoimmune-Immunue-System-and-Inflammatory-Conditions.png\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAutoimmune and Immune System\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cul class=\"common-conditions\"\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAutoimmune disease\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDry Eyes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Other-Health-Conditions.png\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOther Health Conditions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cul class=\"common-conditions\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFatigue\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFever\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJoint pain\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHair loss or thinning\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Skin-and-Dermatological-Health.png\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSkin and Dermatological Health\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cul class=\"common-conditions\"\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSkin rashes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003eResources\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/3431-%E2%80%93-AUTOIMMUNE-ASSESSMENT-COMPREHENSIVE.pdf\"\u003ePatient Brochure\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/nutripath.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/3431-Autoimmune-Assessment-Comprehensive.pdf\"\u003eSample Report\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis test should be ordered and interpreted with guidance from a qualified healthcare practitioner.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Test information is general only.
