Abstract

The data indicate that ASST positivity might be a nonspecific phenomenon, influenced by many factors. In the light of the results of this study, we suggest that the significance of ASST reactivity should be re-evaluated in CIU. In addition, the importance of ASST reactivity in patients with AR/ABA and in patients with NAAR remains unclear, and further controlled studies are needed.
