Reports on primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) have clearly shown wide geographic and ethnic variations. Understanding these variations is expected to play a major role in improving the diagnosis and management of such diseases, and will also affect research on PIDs. In this short review, we explore the unique aspects of primary immunodeficiencies in the Middle East.
原发性免疫缺陷病(PIDs)的报告清楚地显示出广泛的地理和种族差异。了解这些差异有望在改善此类疾病的诊断和管理方面发挥重要作用,也将影响对 PIDs 的研究。在这篇简短的综述中,我们探讨了中东地区原发性免疫缺陷病的独特方面。
