Shaded cells present the total number, for each subgroup, of up-regulated autoantibodies (as measured by signal intensity greater than 5,000 on Immune Response Biomarker Profiling ProtoArray) as compared to internal array controls. Unshaded cells present the number of shared autoantibodies with positivity between the two groups. The number of autoantibodies shared exclusively or between the two groups (for example, those autoantibodies with positivity in groups A and B but not C or D) is presented in brackets.
