Abstract excerpt
We have investigated a possible association between recurrence of otitis media and low concentrations of mannan-binding protein (MBP) in plasma and upper-airway secretions. The protein concentration was measured in plasma (n = 76), nasopharyngeal secretions (n = 83) and middle ear effusions (n = 73) from otitis-prone children, children with less recurrence of acute otitis media, children with no previous history...
