The burden of common variable immunodeficiency disorders: a retrospective analysis of the European Society for Immunodeficiency (ESID) registry data Universiteit Hasselt KU Leuven
Common variable immunodeficiency disorders (CVID) are a group of rare innate disorders characterized by specific antibody deficiency and increased rates of infections, comorbidities and mortality. The burden of CVID in Europe has not been previously estimated. We performed a retrospective analysis of the European Society for Immunodeficiencies (ESID) registry data on the subset of patients classified by their immunologist as CVID and treated ...
Disseminated cutaneous leishmaniasis resembling post-kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania donovani in three patients co-infected with visceral leishmaniasis and human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome in Ethio Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
We report paired strains of Leishmania parasites, one from the viscera and the other from skin lesions that were isolated from three patients with visceral leishmaniasis and disseminated cutaneous leishmaniasis that were co-infected with human immunodeficiency virus. The causative parasites were characterized by polymerase chain reaction-restriction length polymorphism of the ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer 1 and by a panel of ...

Screening protocols to monitor respiratory status in primary immunodeficiency disease : findings from a European survey and subclinical infection working group Universiteit Gent
Many patients with primary immunodeficiency (PID) who have antibody deficiency develop progressive lung disease due to underlying subclinical infection and inflammation. To understand how these patients are monitored we conducted a retrospective survey based on patient records of 13 PID centres across Europe, regarding the care of 1061 adult and 178 paediatric patients with PID on immunoglobulin (Ig) G replacement. The most common diagnosis was ...
The Euroflow PID Orientation Tube in the diagnostic workup of primary immunodeficiency : daily practice performance in a tertiary university hospital Universiteit Gent KU Leuven Vlaams Instituut voor Biotechnologie
IntroductionMultiparameter flow cytometry (FCM) immunophenotyping is an important tool in the diagnostic screening and classification of primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs). The EuroFlow Consortium recently developed the PID Orientation Tube (PIDOT) as a universal screening tool to identify lymphoid-PID in suspicious patients. Although PIDOT can identify different lymphoid-PIDs with high sensitivity, clinical validation in a broad spectrum of ...
