Ana Normal Values. A reference range is usually defined as the set of values 95 percent of the normal population falls within that is 95 prediction interval. Titers of 1 80 or lower are less likely to be significant. Ana is found in around 5 of the healthy adult population being more present in women especially above the age of 65. It s also called an ana or fana fluorescent antinuclear antibody test.

Full blood picture revealed anaemia with hb 90 g l normal 115 165 lymphopaenia of 0 5 x 109 l normal 1 0 4 0 and thrombocytopaenia with platelets of 92 x 109 l normal 150 450. Normally anas are described as negative when they are less than or equal to 1 40 dilution. A reference range is usually defined as the set of values 95 percent of the normal population falls within that is 95 prediction interval. Titers of 1 80 or lower are less likely to be significant.
But that does not point to an autoimmune disease is present.
In comparison with the findings among the disease groups a low cutoff point at 1 40 serum dilution high sensitivity low specificity could have diagnostic value since it would classify virtually all patients with sle ssc or ss as ana positive. Full blood picture revealed anaemia with hb 90 g l normal 115 165 lymphopaenia of 0 5 x 109 l normal 1 0 4 0 and thrombocytopaenia with platelets of 92 x 109 l normal 150 450. Ana is found in around 5 of the healthy adult population being more present in women especially above the age of 65. It s also called an ana or fana fluorescent antinuclear antibody test. That is the highest dilution at which they remain detectable. Plasma or whole blood.
