Her hands are stiff in the morning; the stiffness improves as she starts her chores. Physical examination shows bilateral swelling and tenderness of the wrists, metacarpophalangeal joints, and proximal interphalangeal joints. Her range of motion is limited by pain. Laboratory studies show an increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate. This patients condition is most likely associated with which of the following findings?? A: IgG antibodies with a TNF-α binding domain on the Fc region, B: HLA-DQ2 proteins on white blood cells, C: HLA-B27 protein on white blood cells, D: HLA-A3 proteins on white blood cells, E: IgM antibodies against the Fc region of IgG,  <response>: This is a clinical vignette describing a patient with progressive pain and stiffness in her hands and wrists, swelling and tenderness of wrists and finger joints, limited range of motion due to pain, and increased ESR. This presentation is most consistent with rheumatoid arthritis. The question asks which immunologic finding is most likely associated with this condition.Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease associated with certain HLA alleles, particularly HLA-DR4. Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide anti-CCP antibodies and rheumatoid factor IgM antibodies against the Fc region of IgG are also characteristic findings. TNF-α and IgG antibodies are not specifically associated with rheumatoid arthritis. HLA-DQ2 and HLA-A3 are associated with other autoimmune diseases like celiac disease and ankylosing spondylitis, respectively.E: IgM antibodies against the Fc region of IgG
