Antinuclear antibody should normally be negative or have a titer of less than 1:40, while antinuclear antibody 1:100 is a low-titer positive antibody, which can be seen in normal people and the older the person, the higher the rate of positivity. Antinuclear antibody positivity can also be seen in rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and other rheumatoid immune diseases and infectious mononucleosis and other non-rheumatic immune diseases, patients need to further improve the CRP, autoantibodies, sedimentation rate and other related auxiliary tests to exclude disease factors caused by the abnormal antinuclear antibody test.
