Growth in diagnosis and treatment of primary immunodeficiency within the global Jeffrey Modell Centers Network

Abstract

This global analysis of physician-reported data on patients with PI demonstrates an increase in both diagnosed and treated patients. This substantial increase from within the JMCN is a testament to its impact. In addition to building an extensive global patient database, the expanding JMCN serves as a unique and critical resource, providing the infrastructure for earliest diagnosis, optimized treatments, and implementation of standard-of-care and best practices. The JMCN provides a critical platform that facilitates the education of physicians and patients, awareness initiatives, and research advances, through collaboration and connectivity, ultimately resulting in improved outcomes and QOL for patients with PI. The JMCN has steadily and substantially grown for more than two decades and continues to substantively impact the field of Immunology globally.
