Cut-off values of serum IgG4 among three reagents, including a novel IgG4 reagent: a multicenter study
Abstract Elevated serum IgG4 is a useful marker of IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) activity. However, there is no uniformity in the cut-off values of IgG4 among the various reagents. The aim of this study was to compare the measured and cut-off values of IgG4 assessed using three different reagents....
