Association between Single‐Nucleotide Polymorphisms in<i>Mal/TIRAP</i>and<i>Interleukin‐10</i>Genes and Susceptibility to Invasive<i>Haemophilus influenzae</i>Serotype b Infection in Immunized Children

Abstract

Our findings strongly suggest that the development of invasive Hib disease after prior immunization is in part genetically determined and may direct the immune response to specific clinical manifestations.
