Serum immunoglobulin concentrations in febrile convulsions.
The mean, age adjusted, serum IgA values of 47 children with febrile convulsions were almost identical to those of controls. Five children had serum IgA values less than 0.1 g/l by nephelometry, suggesting that in some cases at least there may be an association between a low serum IgA concentration and febrile convulsions.
