CONCLUSIONS: In our experience, viral respiratory tract infections can cause significant respiratory symptoms and impaired lung function, in children with HID, despite immunoglobulin replacement therapy. Children with severe T-cell immunodeficiencies present impaired clearance of respiratory viruses, and pulmonary complications of viral infections are leading causes of morbidity and mortality in this group of patients. 1 However, the role of respiratory viruses in children with other types of primary immunodeficiency (PID), mainly those with humoral immunodeficiencies (HID) or diseases of immune dysregulation, has hardly been studied. 2, 7 We report, to the best of our knowledge, the first study that analyses respiratory viruses in pediatric patients with predominantly antibody deficiency who required IRT, considering their relationship with clinical symptoms and pulmonary function, bacterial co-infection, treatment and outcomes. ./cache/cord-272143-6ej3eibd.txt ./txt/cord-272143-6ej3eibd.txt
