Rheumatology/Orthopedics

True or False: ANA positive is a specific test for SLE
False; ANA positive is a sensitive, not specific, test for SLE. This means that if ANA comes back positive, it suggests SLE but anti-dsDNA and anti-Smith antibodies (which are more specific for SLE) still need to be checked.
