Low Baseline Pneumococcal Antibody Titers Predict Specific Antibody Deficiency, Increased Upper Respiratory Infections, and Allergy Sensitization
Background Inadequate titers of pneumococcal antibody (PA) are commonly present among patients with recurrent respiratory infections. Objective We sought to determine the effect of the degree of inadequacy in baseline PA titers on the subsequent polysaccharide vaccine response, the incidence of sinu...
