Abstract

This is a research presentation asking the question, "Is there a relationship between autoimmune diseases and the likelihood of higher antibody levels?" Using a dataset of participants with and without autoimmune diseases, it covers whether antibody levels (of Immunoglobulin M and Complement 4) average differently between a healthy control group and four autoimmune disease groups: Sjogren's Disease (SD or SS), Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), ANCA-associated vasculitis (SV), and Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). Finding differences such as these will give a better understanding of the biomarkers of autoimmune diseases and help further the scientific research within the health field.
