A positive result suggests the presence of antibodies associated with autoimmune activity, particularly in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Further evaluation is often required to confirm the diagnosis and assess disease activity.

2. CPK TOTAL

High CPK levels can indicate muscle or tissue damage, such as from a heart attack, muscle disease, or brain injury.
