Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a rare disorder of phagocytic oxidative bursts leading to recurrent pyogenic infections. Affected individuals are most prone to infections caused by staphylococci, Salmonella, Candida, and Aspergillus, but previously we observed a high incidence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in Chinese children with CGD. OBJECTIVE: To determine the spectrum of...
