Does elevated AnA and IgA levels corelate with eczema?

Elevated levels of anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA) and immunoglobulin A (IgA) may not have a direct correlation with eczema, which is primarily an inflammatory skin condition. While some studies suggest that certain autoimmune markers, such as ANA, can be present in individuals with atopic conditions, including eczema, they are not definitive indicators of the disease. Elevated IgA may indicate a response to allergens or infections but is not specifically linked to eczema diagnosis. Overall, a comprehensive clinical evaluation is necessary to understand these associations.
