About this test

This test is used to detect autoantibodies that are commonly found in people with autoimmune diseases, such as lupus or Sjögren's syndrome. Autoimmune conditions occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's tissues. If you have unexplained symptoms such as joint pain, fatigue, or dry eyes, this test can help identify potential underlying causes.
