The previous study support our findings; Gao et al., in 178 patients with SJS-ILD, reported that the frequency of positive ANA (65.2 vs 75.8%, P = 0.329), anti-SSA (56.0 vs 57.3%, P = 0.907), and anti-SSB (40.0 vs 37.3%, P = 0.812) was not different between the non-survivors and survivors, suggesting that autoantibodies were not associated with prognosis of ILD44. The gene discussed is SSB; the disease is interstitial lung disease.
