title: Purified protein derivative anergy in Kawasaki disease.
abstract: It was previously reported from Italy that all patients with Kawasaki disease had a positive tuberculin intradermal test. In this study from Seattle, WA, nine patients with Kawasaki disease showed no reaction to intradermal tuberculin. The difference in results might be caused by the different tuberculin products.
