Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is an inborn error of immunity, characterized by abnormal susceptibility to bacterial and fungal infections and a lack of systemic inflammatory regulation. Pathogenic variants in the CYBB gene are transmitted in an X-linked pattern of inheritance; while the pathogenic variants present in the EROS, NCF1, NCF2, NCF4, or CYBA genes are transmitted with an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern. OBJETIVES To describe the clinical, immunological, and genetic characteristics of two patients with CGD and BCG infection. METHODS In peripheral blood neutrophils, H2O2 production and the expression of NADPH oxidase subunits were measured. Detection of pathogenic variants was by Sanger sequencing of the NCF2 gene. The clinical information was extracted from the records by the treating physicians. RESULTS We present two male infants from two unrelated families of Mayan ethnicity, with CGD and BCG vaccine infection. Three different pathogenic variants in the NCF2 gene were identified; on the one hand, c.304 C>T (p.Arg102*) has already been reported, on the other hand, c.1369 A>T (p.Lys457*) and c.979 G>T (p.Gly327*) not reported. CONCLUSIONS In patients with mycobacterial infection with BCG, we should suspect an inborn error of immunity, such as CGD. The diagnosis of CGD is made through the detection of a lack of radical oxygen species in neutrophils. The reported patients had pathogenic variants in the NCF2 gene, two of which have not been previously reported in the literature.

Abstract
Background Allergies have long been observed in Inborn Errors of Immunity (IEI) and might even be the first presentation resulting in delayed diagnosis or misdiagnosis in some cases. However, data on the prevalence of allergic diseases among IEI patients are limited and contradictory. Objective To provide a worldwide view of allergic diseases, across a broad spectrum of IEI, and their impact on the timely diagnosis of IEI. Methods This is a worldwide study, conceived by the World Allergy Organization (WAO) Inborn Errors of Immunity Committee. A questionnaire was developed and pilot-tested and was sent via email to collect data from 61 immunology centers known to treat pediatric and/or adult IEI patients in 41 countries. In addition, a query was submitted to The United States Immunodeficiency Network (USIDNET) at its website. Results Thirty centers in 23 countries caring for a total 8450 IEI patients responded. The USIDNET dataset included 2332 patients. Data from responders showed that a median (IQR) of 16.3% (10–28.8%) of patients experienced allergic diseases during the course of their IEI as follows: 3.6% (1.3–11.3%) had bronchial asthma, 3.6% (1.9–9.1%) atopic dermatitis, 3.0% (1.0–7.8%) allergic rhinitis, and 1.3% (0.5–3.3%) food allergy. As per the USIDNET data, the frequency of allergy among IEI patients was 68.8% (bronchial asthma in 46.9%). The percentage of IEI patients who presented initially with allergic disorders was 8% (5–25%) and diagnosis delay was reported in 7.5% (0.9–20.6%). Predominantly antibody deficiencies had the highest frequency of allergic disease followed by combined immunodeficiency with a frequency of 40.3% (19.2–62.5%) and 20.0% (10–32%) respectively. As per the data of centers, anaphylaxis occurred in 25/8450 patients (0.3%) whereas per USIDNET dataset, it occurred in 249/2332 (10.6%); drugs and food allergy were the main causes in both datasets. Conclusions This multinational study brings to focus the relation between allergic diseases and IEI. Major allergies do occur in IEI patients but were less frequent than the general population. Initial presentation with allergy could adversely affect the timely diagnosis of IEI. There is a need for policies to raise awareness and educate primary care and other referring specialties on the association of allergic diseases with IEI. This study provides a network among centers for future prospective studies in the field.

Abstract
Mutations in recombinase activating genes 1 and 2 (RAG1/2) result in human severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). The products of these genes are essential for V(D)J rearrangement of the antigen receptors during lymphocyte development. Mutations resulting in null-recombination activity in RAG1 or RAG2 are associated with the most severe clinical and immunological phenotypes, whereas patients with hypomorphic mutations may develop leaky SCID, including Omenn syndrome (OS). A group of previously unrecognized clinical phenotypes associated with granulomata and/or autoimmunity have been described as a consequence of hypomorphic mutations. Here, we present six patients from unrelated families with missense variants in RAG1 or RAG2. Phenotypes observed in these patients ranged from OS to severe mycobacterial infections and granulomatous disease. Moreover, we report the first evidence of two variants that had not been associated with immunodeficiency. This study represents the first case series of RAG1- or RAG2-deficient patients from Mexico and Latin America.

Abstract
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is an inborn error of immunity. CGD is characterized by a deficiency in the function of the NADPH oxidase complex. CGD has been an opportunity to study the function of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the innate immune system. The absence of ROS produced by NADPH oxidase in neutrophils and macrophages leads to an increased susceptibility to bacterial and fungal infections since ROS participate in the elimination of microorganisms. Inflammatory and autoimmune manifestations are also present in CGD; however, the causal connection between the lack of ROS and inflammatory symptoms is not entirely clear. Different in vitro assays have been conducted in humans and clinical trials have been conducted in mice in order to try to understand this relationship. Studies show that ROS react with different molecules of the immune system, either by inhibiting or by stimulating their function, which explains why various inflammation pathways that are not related to each other are affected in CGD; therefore, the described mechanisms of affectation have been diverse, such as a greater production of proinflammatory cytokines, an increase in TH17 lymphocytes, and an alteration in processes like spherocytosis, apoptosis, autophagy, and inflammosome. Understanding the mechanisms that lead to inflammation in the deficiency of the NADPH oxidase complex has led to the proposal of new treatments that act on processes like autophagy, inflammosome, or blocking proinflammatory cytokines. In this review, we describe the different inflammatory manifestations in CGD and the molecular mechanisms through which the lack of ROS leads to hyperinflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is uncertainty about the impact of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in individuals with rare inborn errors of immunity (IEI), a population at risk of developing severe coronavirus disease 2019. This is relevant not only for these patients but also for the general population, because studies of IEIs can unveil key requirements for host defense. OBJECTIVE We sought to describe the presentation, manifestations, and outcome of SARS-CoV-2 infection in IEI to inform physicians and enhance understanding of host defense against SARS-CoV-2. METHODS An invitation to participate in a retrospective study was distributed globally to scientific, medical, and patient societies involved in the care and advocacy for patients with IEI. RESULTS We gathered information on 94 patients with IEI with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Their median age was 25 to 34 years. Fifty-three patients (56%) suffered from primary antibody deficiency, 9 (9.6%) had immune dysregulation syndrome, 6 (6.4%) a phagocyte defect, 7 (7.4%) an autoinflammatory disorder, 14 (15%) a combined immunodeficiency, 3 (3%) an innate immune defect, and 2 (2%) bone marrow failure. Ten were asymptomatic, 25 were treated as outpatients, 28 required admission without intensive care or ventilation, 13 required noninvasive ventilation or oxygen administration, 18 were admitted to intensive care units, 12 required invasive ventilation, and 3 required extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Nine patients (7 adults and 2 children) died. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that (1) more than 30% of patients with IEI had mild coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and (2) risk factors predisposing to severe disease/mortality in the general population also seemed to affect patients with IEI, including more younger patients. Further studies will identify pathways that are associated with increased risk of severe disease and are nonredundant or redundant for protection against SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been suggested that polymorphisms of histamine metabolising enzymes can be a risk factor for developing histamine-involving diseases. The aim of the present study is to research the possible association between two functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs): C314T in the Histamine-N-Methyl Transferase gene and C2029G in the Diamine Oxidase gene, with the severity of allergic rhinitis and the number of allergic diseases, in a group of allergic Mexican children. METHODS We studied 154 unrelated allergic children. SNPs were analysed by RT-PCR. The total serum IgE was measured by chemiluminescence and the serum histamine by ELISA. We used logistic regression analysis to determine OR. RESULTS Patients carrying the mutant allele for any SNP had more risk to develop higher rhinitis severity or a bigger number of allergic diseases. Haplotype analysis revealed that this effect is synergistic. In patients carrying one or two mutant alleles, serum histamine levels were higher than those of patients carrying only wild alleles. Serum IgE levels were not associated with the presence of mutant alleles. CONCLUSION The presence of these SNPs in patients with allergic rhinitis can lead to higher serum histamine, therefore to a higher risk of developing more severe symptoms or more associated allergic diseases, even if the serum IgE remains low.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is one of the most common antibody deficiencies, is characterized by low serum immunoglobulins, defective antibody response and increased susceptibility to chronic and recurrent infections. OBJECTIVE we present the clinical findings of patients with CVID in two hospitals in Mexico City. METHODS We performed a retrospective study of patients who filled CVID criteria. We collected the following information, demographic data, age at onset, age at diagnosis, family history, infection, autoimmunity, lymphoproliferative disease, allergy, malignancy, immunoglobulin levels at diagnosis, route of administration, dosage and frequency of IVIG of each patient. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics. RESULTS Amongst 26 patients who filled CVID criteria, 14 were men and 12 women. The mean diagnosis delay was 48 months (22-128), serum immunoglobulins at diagnosis in mg/dL were IgG 216 (114-316), IgM 21 (12-121), IgA 21 (6-26) and IgE 4.6 (1.8) IU/mL. 81% of patients suffered pneumonia. There was a decrease in the number of pneumonias before and after treatment with gammaglobulin (p = 0.028). 27% of the patients had autoimmune diseases, 35% allergies, 35% chronic diarrhea, 62% bronchiectasis, 73% chronic cough, 50% lymphadenopathy. One patient had lymphoproliferative disease and none developed malignancy. CONCLUSIONS We found that the delay in the diagnosis and initiation of gammaglobulin replacement affects the occurrence of complications such as bronchiectasis.

Abstract
The transfer factor (TF) was described in 1955 by S. Lawrence. In 1992 Kirkpatrick characterized the specific TF at molecular level. The TF is constituted by a group of numerous molecules, of low molecular weight, from 1.0 to 6.0 kDa. The 5 kDa fraction corresponds to the TF specific to antigens. There are a number of publications about the clinical indications of the TF for diverse diseases, in particular those where the cellular immune response is compromised or in those where there is a deficient regulation of the immune response. In this article we present our clinical and basic experiences, especially regarding the indications, usage and dosage of the TF. Our group demonstrated that the TF increases the expression of IFN-gamma and RANTES, while decreases the expression of osteopontine. Using animal models we have worked with M. tuberculosis, and with a model of glioma with good therapeutic results. In the clinical setting we have worked with herpes zoster, herpes simplex type I, herpetic keratitis, atopic dermatitis, osteosarcoma, tuberculosis, asthma, post-herpetic neuritis, anergic coccidioidomycosis, leishmaniasis, toxoplasmosis, mucocutaneous candidiasis, pediatric infections produced by diverse pathogen germs, sinusitis, pharyngitis, and otits media. All of these diseases were studied through protocols which main goals were to study the therapeutic effects of the TF, and to establish in a systematic way diverse dosage schema and time for treatment to guide the prescription of the TF.

Abstract
Hyper-IgE syndrome (HIES) is a primary immunodeficiency characterized by recurrent skin abscesses, recurrent pneumonia with pneumatocele formation, eczema, eosinophilia, and elevated levels of serum IgE. Patients with the autosomal recessive (AR) form of HIES appear to be prone to developing autoimmune diseases. We present two cases of HIES with autoimmune complications; one case was a product of a consanguineous marriage, the other one was a sporadic case. The first patient presented with recurrent episodes of erythema nodosum, warts, bronchiolitis obliterans and thrombocytopenia. The second patient developed glomerulonephritis resulting in endstage renal failure. She later developed malar rash, oral ulcers, cerebral infarcts with vasculitis and positive ANA, anti-dsDNA, and antiphospholipid antibodies. We discuss the dilemma in treating patients who present with both primary immunodeficiency and autoimmunity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Juvenile Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) and Kawasaki Disease (KD) are disseminated vasculitides of unknown cause affecting small- and medium-sized vessels in children. We present an unusually severe case that fulfilled criteria for both KD and PAN. The diagnosis, overlapping clinical features, and treatment options for the 2 diseases are discussed. METHODS A 3-year-old girl with systemic vasculitis is presented. We compare our case to 4 other cases reported in the literature which presented with a similar diagnostic dilemma. A review of the medical literature and a qualitative analysis of the diseases were performed, with emphasis on overlapping features, atypical cases, and treatment options. RESULTS Many features of KD and PAN are shared; however, there are some clinical features that could help differentiate one from the other. Fever, weight loss, rash, abdominal pain, arthritis, coronary arteritis, peripheral gangrene, anemia, leukocytosis, thrombocytosis, and elevated C-reactive protein are among many of the features that are shared by both diseases. However, KD also has unique clinical features that include conjunctivitis, changes in the lips and mouth, desquamation of the fingertips, and gallbladder hydrops, whereas renal involvement in KD is rare. CONCLUSIONS Occasionally juvenile PAN and KD share clinical manifestations, and when they do, it may be impossible to differentiate between them. Treatment should be directed according to the severity and persistence of these clinical manifestations.
