Abstract excerpt

Kawasaki disease is an acute, self-limited vasculitis of infants and children, manifest as fever and signs of mucocutaneous inflammation. Treatment with high-dose immunoglobulin reduces systemic inflammation and prevents coronary artery lesions in Kawasaki disease. In this study, we investigated the possible association of the major histocompatibililty complex (MHC) region for the susceptibility to Kawasaki...
