The “Intermediate” CD14 + CD16 + monocyte subpopulation plays a role in IVIG responsiveness of children with Kawasaki disease

Abstract Background Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute, self-limited febrile illness of unknown cause. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG)-resistance are related to greater risk for permanent cardiac complications. We aimed to determine the correlation between monocytes and the phenotype of KD in relat...
