Anti-Sm Antibody (Ab.) is a specific marker for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, although unusual. Several guidelines recommend a phased study protocol if a systemic autoimmune disease is suspected, although in clinical practice this is not always fulfilled. The “Asociación Española”´s laboratory (Montevideo-Ururguay) started to use the chemiluminescence method (CLIA) for Anti-Sm determination and sometimes unexpected reactivities were observed. The aim was determine the CLIA´s optimal cut-off and compare it´s diagnostic performance against the ELISA method for Anti-Sm Ab. The CLIA´s and ELISA´s cut-off for Anti-Sm Ab. were compared with the HEp-2 indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) method using a reference material. Sera from 40 patients were screened for Anti-Sm Ab by CLIA and ELISA methods. Sensitivity, specificity, negative (NPV) and positive predictive values (PPV) for the CLIA method for Anti-Sm Ab optimal cut-off were calculated as well (ROC plots). The association and the degree of agreement between ELISA and CLIA methods were evaluated (chi 2and Cohen’s kappa coefficient respectively) as the R2 coefficient was also calculated. The cut off values of the three methods were: 1/4096 IIF, 1/1024 CLIA and 1/512 ELISA. The CLIA and ELISA sensitivities were equal (95%) while the specificities were 93% y 100% respectively; PPV and NPV for CLIA method were 76% and 93%, and for ELISA 100% and 95%. The optimal cut-off for CLIA method was 41.5 CU (85% sensitivity and 95% specificity). The chi 2 value was 18.2, p: < 0.01, the Cohen’s kappa coefficient: 65%, p: < 0.01, and the R2 coefficient: 0.83 (p: 1,92 x 10 -16). Anti-Sm Ab by CLIA method can be used adjusting the cut-off value for each laboratory population, using IIF method in parallel or using a stepped protocol.
