Abstract excerpt

Invasive pneumococcal disease is a serious infection that primarily affects very young children and elderly or immunocompromised individuals but also affects previously healthy people. Variant mannose-binding lectin (MBL) alleles are associated with recurrent infections and may be a risk factor for pneumococcal infections. To assess the influence of MBL genotypes on the course and outcome of invasive pneumococcal...
