Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: An association has been described between mortality in children with meningococcal disease and functional polymorphisms in the interleukin-1 (IL1) cluster. We undertook a multicenter study to evaluate associations of these polymorphisms in a Central European population. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The study involved 95 Middle European pediatric hospitals. We collected blood samples from, and clinical...
