In the patient group there were also found higher levels of tHcy \(median IQR\; 11.4 \[8.9\-13.4\] vs 9.1 \[8.2\-10.8\] μmol\/l, p<0.0001\) and lower folic acid \(5.46 \[4.28\-6.94\] vs 9.26 \[6.88\-11.1 ng\/mL\], p<0.0001\) and vitamin B12 concentrations \(60 \[217\-308\] vs 313.5 \[245\-414\] pg\/L, p=0.004\) compared with controls. a prevalence of the 677TT genotype in autoimmunologic patients was 12.3%. In the patient group levels of anti\-Nε\-Hcyalbumin \(0.325 \[0.236\-0.536\] vs 0.199 \[0.167\-0.254\], p<0.0001\) and Nε\-Hcyhemoglobin antibodies \(0.433 \[0.332\-0.646\] vs 0.291 \[0.24\-0.362\]\; p<0.0001\) were significantly higher as compared to the control group. As expected, there were significant associations between tHcy and levels of anti\-Nε\-Hcy\-albumin \(r=0.67, p<0.0001\) and \-hemoglobin antibodies \(r=0.66, p<0.0001\). Weak inverse correlations were also observed between anti\-Nε\-Hcy\-albumin and \-hemoglobin antibodies, and folic acid concentrations \(r=\-0.18, p=0.04 and r=\-0.17, p=0.05, respectively\). Moreover, there were positive associations between anti\-Nε\-Hcyprotein antibodies levels and CRP concentration \(r=0.8, p<0.0001, for both antibodies\). No associations between demographic features and the antibodies were found. Carriers of the TT genotype had signif"]
