Though the indication mentioned for resorting to plasmapheresis in the report is the unaffordability of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy, I wish to highlight other important reasons for preferring plasmapheresis over IVIG. Firstly, IVIG is known to exert its immunomodulatory effects for a prolonged period of time. The mean duration of action of IVIG is 53 days and the half life of immu...
Experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) in a rat model of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). Rats were pretreated with 0 to 2 g/kg IVIG and then challenged with an antiplatelet antibody (7E3, 8 mg/kg). IVIG effects on 7E3-induced thrombocytopenia and on 7E3 pharmacokinetics were determined. IVIG pretreatment led to significant changes in the degree...
PURPOSE Because the role of immunoglobulins (IVIG) prophylaxis in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) has not been established in terms of survival and infection prevention, we conducted a meta-analysis evaluating these issues. METHODS Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized-controlled trials comparing prophylaxis with polyvalent IVIG or cytomegaloviru...
PURPOSE Because immune mediated mechanisms are suspected in epileptogenesis, IVIg and corticosteroids have been used as alternatives to treat refractory seizures. We present our experience treating intractable epileptic children with IVIg and prednisone. METHODS Children with intractable epilepsy treated with prednisone or IVIg between 2005-2016 were reviewed retrospectively. Children with in...
Background This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) and combination of IVIg and Methylprednisolone for childhood Idiopathic (autoimmune) Thrombocytopenia (ITP) treatment; in addition investigate the related factors to develop chronic form of under 15 years ITP. Materials and Methods This retrospective study conducted on 88 ITP patients that treated wit...
PURPOSE To investigate the clinical effects of a single high dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) combined with initial dexamethasone as a primary treatment on Kawasaki disease (KD). MATERIALS AND METHODS Between January 2008 and December 2010, we reviewed the medical records of 216 patients with complete KD patients that were admitted to a single medical center. 106 patients were treated w...
OBJECTIVES To assess whether intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) followed by plasma exchange (PE) is more effective for patients with Guillain-Barré syndrome compared with IVIG alone. METHODS Retrospective chart review of 46 patients treated for Guillain-Barré syndrome between 1995 and 2005 was performed. Patients were divided into four subgroups based on treatment received (IVIG, PE, IVIG + PE...
Background High-dose IVIG (2 g/kg) alone or low-dose IVIG (100 mg/kg) in conjunction with plasma exchange is typically administered as a renal transplantation desensitization therapy. Herein, we monitored changes in T cell and B cell flow cytometry crossmatch (FCXM) to assess the effects of short-term super high-dose IVIG (4 g/kg) administration with plasmapheresis before living-donor renal tra...
BACKGROUND Regulatory T (Treg) cells are implicated in the development and progression of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA). We previously showed beneficial effects of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy combined with corticosteroid and immunosuppressant treatment on clinical symptoms, including mononeuritis multiplex and cardiac dysfunction, and Treg cell frequency, du...
The mechanism of effect of high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy in immune cytopenias is incompletely known. One of the leading theories ascribes the short-term effects of IVIG to the competition of infused IVIG for Fc receptors, thereby inhibiting IgG-mediated clearance. Using a system independent of IgG-Fc receptor interactions, we examined another potential mechanism of IVIG ac...
