Anti-Myxovirus Resistance Protein-1 Immunoglobulin A Autoantibody in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

Figure 2

Survival (a) and incidence of acute exacerbation (b) in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Survival of IPF with higher levels (>0.312; n = 4, bold line) of serum anti-MX1 IgA autoantibody was significantly worse than that with lower levels (≤0.312; n = 67, dotted line) (log-rank test, ). AE occurred significantly more frequently in IPF with higher levels of serum anti-MX1 IgA autoantibody (>0.312; n = 4, bold line) than in IPF with lower levels (≤0.312; n = 67, dotted line) (log-rank test, ).
