We gave the block-replace regimen of carbimazole plus thyroxine to 100 patients for 6 or 12 months, to determine whether prolonged treatment is associated with fewer relapses. The remission rate one year after cessation of treatment was 59% with the 6 month course and 65% with 12 months; this was not significantly different. We also analysed HLA markers identified by restriction fragment length polymorphisms and could not confirm the recently reported associations of outcome with HLA-DR4 or with an HLA-DQA2 allele. These results show that six months treatment with a block-replace regimen of antithyroid drugs is probably sufficient, in the UK, to achieve maximum remission of Graves' disease and that there are no HLA markers which clearly predict outcome.","PeriodicalId":54520,"journal":{"name":"Quarterly Journal of Medicine","volume":"87 6 1","pages":"337-41"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1093/OXFORDJOURNALS.QJMED.A068938","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"61293987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

All samples (n = 779) tested for ANCA at our laboratory were identified, and clinical information was obtained for 783/779 patients by questionnaire, and by visits where necessary. The combined prevalence of WG/mPA/SV was 123/738 (17%). The ANCA test was positive in 48/68 WG patients (71%; 38 cANCA, 10 pANCA), 22/43 mPA patients (51%; 12 cANCA, 10 pANCA) and 3/12 SV patients (25%). WG and mPA patients in remission had similar frequencies of positive ANCA to those with active disease. The sensitivity and specificity for WG (71% and 80%) and mPA (51% and 80%) were lower than previously reported. In this high-prevalence population, the overall (WG/mPA/SV) positive predictive value was only 40%, and the sensitivity 59%. Only 29% of positive tests were from patients with active disease. Overall, 78% of test results gave a 'true' prediction.
