Article Synopsis
- Immature infants have low IgG subclass levels, increasing their risk of serious infections.
- Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) treatment can help address this deficiency, and this study examined IgG subclass levels in preterm babies receiving different IVIG preparations.
- The results show significant increases in IgG subclass levels within the first week of treatment, with varying effectiveness depending on the type of IVIG used, suggesting that future trials should focus on optimal dosing and timing for both total IgG and its subclasses.
