TLDR
In this multicenter study, the detection of IgG antibodies that are directed against domain I of beta2GPI proved to be more strongly associated with thrombosis and obstetric complications than those detected using the standard anti‐beta2G PI antibody assay.

The 1982 revised criteria for the classification of systemic lupus erythematosus

TL;DR: The 1971 preliminary criteria for the classification of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) were revised and updated to incorporate new immunologic knowledge and improve disease classification and showed gains in sensitivity and specificity.

Lupus anticoagulants are stronger risk factors for thrombosis than anticardiolipin antibodies in the antiphospholipid syndrome: a systematic review of the literature

TL;DR: The detection of lupus anticoagulants and, possibly, of immunoglobulin G (IgG) anticardiolipin antibodies at medium or high titers helps to identify patients at risk for thrombosis, however, to take full advantage of the conclusions provided by the available evidence, there is an urgent need to harmonize investigational methods.

Anti-β2-glycoprotein I, antiprothrombin antibodies, and the risk of thrombosis in the antiphospholipid syndrome

TL;DR: A recent systematic review of the literature showed lupus anticoagulants to be risk factors of thrombosis, independent of the type and site of the event, the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies.
