autism in a child with common variable immunodeficiency.
Authors
abstract
autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder, characterized by poor social interaction and communication impairment and repetitive behavior. autism is considered as a genetic and multifactorial disorder, with diverse risk factors involved. herein, we report a 13-year-old male with common variable immunodeficiency (cvid), who was diagnosed with autism at the age of 3 years old. as there are some evidences about the role of the immune system defects in the pathogenesis of autism, specific primary antibody deficiency diseases such as cvid might predispose some affected cases to this neurodevelopmental disorders.

BACKGROUND Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) represents a group of heterogeneous, still undifferentiated, syndromes that are all characterized by defective antibody formation. It is often associated with autoimmune disease. METHODS An African-American girl was diagnosed with CVID at age 3 years. She was seen during an adrenal crisis precipitated by pneumonia at the age of 8 years and 10...

Common variable immunodeficiency (CV ID) is a heterogeneous primary immunodeficiency disorder, characterized by hypogammaglobulinemia and increased susceptibility to recurrent bacterial infections. To determine the spectrum of infectious complications in patients with common variable immunodeficiency (CV ID), we reviewed the hospital records of 64 CVID patients, who were diagnosed in Child...

A three year old boy with delayed separation of the umbilical cord, recurrent pyogenic infections and common variable immundeficiency is presented. The immunoglobulin measurement was severely abnormal. To the best of our knowledge, the existance of leukocyte adhesion disorder together with common variable immunodeficiency (CYID) in a patient has not been reported prior to this study.

Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a form of severe antibody deficiency with an estimated prevalence of 1 in 25,000 to 1 in 100,000. The disorder apparently results from currently undefined immune deregulations resulting in failed B-cell differentiation with impaired secretion of immunoglobulins. A 5-year female presented with fever, cough and shortness of breath at rest. Past medical h...
