Abstract
We conclude that approximately one-third RAS patients may have GPCA/TGA/TMA positivity in their sera. Because some GPCA-positive patients may develop pernicious anemia, autoimmune atrophic gastritis, and gastric carcinoma, and some TGA/TMA-positive patients may have thyroid dysfunction such as hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, these patients should be referred to doctors for further management.
