Age at analysis, mo 20 
Serum immunoglobulin levels, g/L (control)    
    IgG 10.63 (4.51-10.46) 8.44 (4.51-10.46) 10.37 (7.15-9.07) 
    IgA 1.36 (0.14-0.64) 1.88 (0.14-0.64) 3.93 (0.22-1.44) 
    IgM 0.4 (0.33-1.00) 0.17 (0.33-1.00) 0.20 (0.34-1.28) 
Age at analysis 2 y 2 mo 23 mo 
T-cell proliferation, SI (control) 9.3 (206.9 ± 142.5) 55.3 (64.8 ± 8.1) 7.2 (89.4 ± 31.2) 

Control values of serum immunoglobulin levels are based on children aged either 7 to 9 months or 1 to 2 years and are shown as the mean ± SD. The T-cell proliferation assay was performed as described previously17  with at least three healthy adults as controls.

SI indicates stimulation index; and IVIG, 2.5 g of monthly IV immune globulin infusion.
