“…It is worth noting that APCA+IPF patients were mainly men smokers, as was the control APCA-population. In one study conducted in the general population, smoking acted as protective factor against the appearance of APCA, whereas female sex was associated with an increased risk [37]. This observation is in contradiction with what we observed in our IPF population.…”

“…Gender differences are probably caused by the prevalence of different types of autoimmune gastritis (AIG), and the prevalence of AIG in women was higher compared to men [38]. Parietal cell antibodies, which are thought to be pathogenetic antibodies of AIG, were found more frequently in women than in men (OR 2.4; 95% CI 1.1–5.3) [39]. Some women patients with AIG were possibly enrolled in our study.…”

“…PCA is a biomarker of autoimmune gastritis 26 and requires a serum titer greater than the upper limit of the normal reference range for diagnosis. T1DM primarily occurs as a result of autoimmune-mediated pancreatic β-cell destruction.…”
