Immunofluorescence pattern of SS-A and SS-B antibodies. Produced using serum from a patient on HEp-20-10 cells with a FITC conjugate. Anti-SSA autoantibodies (anti–Sjögren's-syndrome-related antigen A autoantibodies, also called anti-Ro, or similar names including anti-SSA/Ro, anti-Ro/SSA, anti–SS-A/Ro, and anti-Ro/SS-A) are a type of anti-nuclear autoantibodies that are associated with ...
Anti-centromere antibodies (ACAs; often styled solid, anticentromere) are autoantibodies specific to centromere and kinetochore function. They occur in some autoimmune diseases , frequently in limited systemic scleroderma (formerly called CREST syndrome ), and occasionally in the diffuse form of scleroderma .
The respective CGS susceptibilities are multiplied by 4 π to give the corresponding ISQ quantities (often referred to as SI quantities) with the same units: [7] = = = For example, the CGS volume magnetic susceptibility of water at 20 °C is 7.19 × 10 −7 , which is 9.04 × 10 −6 using the SI convention, both quantities being dimensionless.
The idea behind the "mixed" disease is that this specific autoantibody is also present in other autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus, polymyositis, scleroderma, etc. MCTD was characterized as an individual disease in 1972 by Sharp et al., [3] [4] and the term was introduced by Leroy [5] in 1980.

By Congressional Budget Office (CBO) calculations, the lowest income quintile (0–20%) and second quintile (21–40%) of households in the U.S., pay an average federal income tax of −9.3% and −2.6% of income and Social Security taxes of 8.3% and 7.9% of income respectively.
