Methods Sera from patients with SSc diffuse n 96 limited n 113 from patients with overlap syndromes n 51 from patients with other diseases associated with SSc n 20 as well as from disease controls n 487 were analysed for the presence of anti-topo I antibodies by line immunoblot assay and ELISA. Assessment of organ manifestations was performed as proposed by the European Scleroderma Trial and Research network. Results The applied test systems for the detection of
