Weba positive ana test (ana +) is virtually a sine qua non for the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (sle) since more than 95% of patients have a positive test, and the current classification criteria for sle require a positive ana test at a titer of β‰₯.

You may get a positive result if:

Webyour test is positive if it finds antinuclear antibodies in your blood.

The higher the titer, the more autoantibodies are present in the sample.
