CD44 expression on blood eosinophils is a novel marker of bronchial asthma.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Hereditary angioedema (HAE) with C1 inhibitor (C1-INH) deficiency is a rare autosomal dominant disease. Although the first symptoms can appear in childhood, the diagnosis's delay has a strong impact on the patient's quality of life. We analyzed clinical and laboratory characteristics and the drug therapy o...
