Importantly, greater pessimism about national economic risks led to greater support for progressive taxation only for participants who felt relatively poor.This study aimed to directly analyze the potential relationship of anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA) before and after the administration of TNF-α inhibitors (TNFi) with the appearance of anti-drug antibodies (ADrA) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). A total of 121 cases, viz., 38, 53, and 30 cases treated with infliximab (IFX), adalimumab (ADA), and etanercept (ETN), respectively, were enrolled. The ANA titers were measured using indirect immunefluorescence assay (IF-ANA) and multiplex flow immunoassay (ANA Screen) before and serially during the therapy. The anti-IFX antibodies (HACA) and anti-ADA antibodies (AAA) were measured with a radioimmunoassay. ADrA turned positive in 14 (36.8%) among 38 patients treated with IFX, and 16 (30.2%) among 53 treated with ADA. All of them were positive for IF-ANA before TNFi administration, while ADrA never appeared in any of the 15 patients negative for IF-ANA ( less then 40). IF-ANA of high titers (≥ 320 and ≥ 640) before IFX treatment showed a significant association with the appearance of HACA 52 weeks after IFX (P = 0.040 and 0.017, respectively), whereas AAA appearance was not related to IF-ANA titers before treatment. Moreover, IF-ANA of high titers before IFX treatment was significantly associated with inefficacy and discontinuation of the treatment. The positivity of anti-SS-A antibodies before therapy might be a risk factor for ADrA appearance in patients treated with IFX or ADA. The percentage of patients whose IF-ANA titers increased was significantly higher with IFX than with ADA or ETN treatments (P = 0.026 and 0.022, respectively). High ANA titers and positive ANA Screen after IFX the
