Subcutaneous IgG Replacement Therapy by Push in 32 Patients with Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases in Argentine [PDF]
Introduction: Regular replacement with immunoglobulin infusions is the mainstay of treatment in the majority of primary immunodeficiencies. Several studies showed that Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin (SCIG) has similar efficacy to Intravenous Immunoglobulin (

JOINT DISEASE IN CHILDREN WITH X-LINKED AGAMMAGLOBULINEMIA
Patients with X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) are prone to recurrent bacterial infections due to low levels of immunoglobulins. Clinical symptoms include recurrent bacterial otitis media, bronchitis, pneumonia, meningitis, skin infection and arthritis ...

Disseminated Spiroplasma apis Infection in Patient with Agammaglobulinemia, France
We report a disseminated infection caused by Spiroplasma apis, a honeybee pathogen, in a patient in France who had X-linked agammaglobulinemia. Identification was challenging because initial bacterial cultures and direct examination by Gram staining were

Genetic stability of Campylobacter coli in patients with primary antibody deficiencies [PDF]
In the Clinical Communication, Dion et al 1 reported that in patients with severe primary antibody deficiency (PAD), Campylobacter infection is a major cause (6.5%) of chronic or recurrent diarrhea. Moreover, by a molecular study performed in a subset of

Pyoderma Gangrenosum in a Patient with X-Linked Agammaglobulinemia [PDF]
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a primary immunodeficiency disorder caused by germline mutations of B-cell tyrosine kinase (BTK) gene. It is characterized by decreased serum immunoglobulins levels and circulating mature B cells. This defect in humoral immunity leads to increased susceptibility to infection. Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is an uncommon,

A novel gene mutation, c.82delC (p.Arg28 Alafs5), in a Korean family with X-linked agammaglobulinemia [PDF]
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a hereditary humoral immunodeficiency that results from Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) gene mutations. These mutations cause defects in B-cell development, resulting in the virtual absence of these lymphocytes from ...
