The positivity of this antibody was found to be significantly elevated in patients with thromboembolic events (25% vs. 5%, p = 0.029); in fact, patients with positive IgA anti-β2GPI had an incidence of thrombosis over six times higher than those who had normal antibody concentrations [OR (CI 95%) of 6.67 (1.5–30.2), p = 0.014]. The gene discussed is CD79A; the disease is deep vein thrombosis.
