Increased levels of anti-PGA antibodies, particularly PGA-IgA, were significantly associated with JIA. PGA-IgA may serve as a sensitive biomarker for disease activity in JIA and could potentially aid in the diagnosis of JIA. Key Points • This study found a significant correlation between blood levels of PGA-IgA and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), which may provide valuable diagnostic insights. • PGA-IgA shows potential as a sensitive biomarker for the assessment of disease activity in JIA patients, helping to determine disease activity.
