A member asked:

What does this mean (h) 1:8 titer, ana patter (a) nucleolar, ana screenifa (a) positive?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends on setting : The blood test by itself is not diagnostic. It depends on your clinical condition why the test was done as to whether it has any meaning at all. All this means is that you have an antibody against nucleus of the cell but that is not a diagnosis.
