Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the variable nucleotide tandem repeat polymorphism in intron 2 of the interleukin-1 receptor antagonist gene is associated with lung injury in children with community-acquired pneumonia. DESIGN: A prospective cohort of children diagnosed with community-acquired pneumonia. SETTING: Two pediatric hospitals. PATIENTS: Eight hundred fifty pediatric patients with community-acquired...
