ADA and autoimmune disease: Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that ALT (adjusted odds radio [aOR] = 1.001, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.001–1.002), EBV infection (aOR = 8.486, 95% CI: 6.753–10.663), inflammatory disease (aOR = 3.915, 95% CI: 3.198–4.794), autoimmune disease (aOR = 2.307, 95% CI: 1.823–2.920), and malignant disease (aOR = 1.381; 95% CI: 1.101–1.734) were risk factors for an elevated ADA level.
