Abstract excerpt

Mexican mestizo pediatric patients with ALA revealed a significantly increased frequency of HLA-DR3 alone, or in its haplotype form HLA-A2, DR3, which confirms our previous observation in adult patients with ALA in the same ethnic group. However, the relative increase in these HLA specificities in pediatric ALA patients when compared to adult patients was not statistically significant, and calls for an...
