Background. Climate conditions in the northwest of Spain are from the rest of the country, and the pollen sensitisation rates and allergens involved are different. The present study aimed to investigate the sensitisation profile of patients with grass pollen allergy and the interference of other sensitisations in respiratory symptoms. Methods. A total of 959 Spanish patients with seasonal […]
Introduction. Most patients with primary and secondary immunodeficiencies need regular Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG) or Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin (SCIG) treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the serum IgG trough levels, frequency of mild and severe infections, frequency and duration of hospitalization, duration of absence of school, and quality of life in patients switching their IVIG therapy to SCIG […]
