Table 3. Association of serum NAb titres with diagnosis (PD patients versus Controls).

Part A
PD Controls p-value
Abeta1–42 NAb (OD) 8.43 (0–11) 8.58 (0–10.98) 0.75
Asyn NAb 6.73 (0–9.46) 6.46 (0–10.80) 0.50
MBP NAb 7.76 (0–10.29) 7.94 (0–10.72) 0.98
MOG NAb 0 (0–8.86) 0 (0–9.51) 0.25
S100B NAb 8.01 (0–11.08) 8.11 (0–11.40) 0.46

Logarithmized serum NAb titres were calculated using a multiple linear regression model with age, gender (PD versus controls) as covariates. Data are presented with median (range). P-values <0.025 (0.05/2) were considered significant. Abeta1–42, Amyloid-beta1–42; Asyn, Alpha-synuclein; MBP, Myelin basic protein; MOG, Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein; NAb, naturally occurring autoantibody; OD, Optical density; PD, Parkinson’s disease; S100B, S100 calcium binding protein B.
