Anti-Ro autobody, also called anti-SS-A, is associated with connective tissue disease, such as Sjogren's syndrome and systemic lupus erythematosus, and vasculitis.

Of patients without known illness, 3% will be positive for anti-Ro.[1]


Anti-R antibodies may be present three years before development of systemic lupus erythematosus.[2]

Patients with anti-Ro have more systematic illness.[2]
