Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that low serum mannose-binding lectin (MBL) levels, as a result of the single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter region (-221 X/Y) and exon 1 (codon 54 A/B) of the MBL2 gene, predispose to infection in Chinese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS: Two hundred forty-five patients with SLE were prospectively followed for the development of major infective...
