Brief Summary: The purpose of this investigation is to assess the prevalence of infectious disease seropositivity toxoplasmosis rubella cytomegalovirus CMV herpes simplex virus type 1 HSV-1 and herpes simplex virus type 2 HSV-2 syphilis Epstein-Barr virus and H pylori in a group of patients presenting with specific autoimmune diseases rheumatoid arthritis RA undifferentiated connective tissue disorder UCTD Sjogren antiphospholipid syndrome - APS vasculitides systemic lupus erythematosus SLE polymyositis Hashimoto multiple sclerosis primary biliary cirrhosis PBC etc using the BioPlex 2200 and complementary EIA kits as compared to matched controls by age sex and ethnicity
Detailed Description: The purpose of this investigation is to assess the prevalence of infectious disease seropositivity toxoplasmosis rubella cytomegalovirus CMV herpes simplex virus type 1 HSV-1 and herpes simplex virus type 2 HSV-2 syphilis Epstein-Barr virus and H pylori in a group of patients presenting with specific autoimmune diseases RA UCTD Sjogren antiphospholipid syndrome - APS vasculitides SLE polymyositis Hashimoto multiple sclerosis PBC etc using the BioPlex 2200 and complementary EIA kits as compared to matched controls by age sex and ethnicity

We will assess in our Center 100 patients with multiple sclerosis for the antibody profile of different infectious agents Comparative assessments will be performed with normal matched subjects
