Abstract
BACKGROUND The inborn errors of immunity (IEIs) are a group of heterogeneous disorders mainly characterized by severe and recurrent infections besides other complications including autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. In this study, we aim to evaluate clinical, immunologic, and molecular data of monogenic IEI patients with and without autoimmune manifestations. METHODS We have retrospectively screened cases of monogenic IEI in the Iranian PID registry for the occurrence of autoimmunity and immune dysregulation. A questionnaire was filled for all qualified patients with monogenic defects to evaluate demographic, laboratory, clinical, and molecular data. RESULTS A total of 461 monogenic IEI patients (290 male and 171 female) with a median (IQR) age of 11.0 (6.0-20.0) years were enrolled in this study. Overall, 331 patients (72.1%) were born to consanguineous parents. At the time of the study, 330 individuals (75.7%) were alive and 106 (24.3%) were deceased. Autoimmunity was reported in 92 (20.0%) patients with a median (IQR) age at autoimmune diagnosis of 4.0 (2.0-7.0) years. Sixteen patients (3.5%) showed autoimmune complications (mostly autoimmune cytopenia) as the first presentation of the disease. Most of the patients with autoimmunity were diagnosed clinically with common variable immunodeficiency (42.4%). The frequency of sinusitis and splenomegaly was significantly higher in patients with autoimmunity than patients without autoimmunity. In patients with autoimmunity, the most common pathogenic variants were identified in LRBA (in 21 patients, 23.0%), ATM (in 13 patients, 14.0%), and BTK (in 9 patients, 10.0%) genes. In the evaluation of autoimmunity by different genes, 4 of 4 IL10RB (100%), 3 of 3 AIRE (100%), and 21 of 30 LRBA (70.0%) mutated genes had the highest prevalence of autoimmunity. CONCLUSIONS Autoimmune phenomena are common features among patients with monogenic IEI and are associated with a more complicated course of the disease. Therefore, when encountering autoimmune disorders, especially in the setting of dysgammaglobulinemia, it would be appropriate to conduct next-generation sequencing to discover responsible genes for the immune dysregulation at an early stage of the disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The number of inherited diseases and the spectrum of clinical manifestations of primary immunodeficiency disorders (PIDs) are ever-expanding. Molecular diagnosis using genomic approaches should be performed for all PID patients since it provides a resource to improve the management and to estimate the prognosis of patients with these rare immune disorders. METHOD The current update of Iranian PID registry (IPIDR) contains the clinical phenotype of newly registered patients during last 5 years (2013-2018) and the result of molecular diagnosis in patients enrolled for targeted and next-generation sequencing. RESULTS Considering the newly diagnosed patients (n = 1395), the total number of registered PID patients reached 3056 (1852 male and 1204 female) from 31 medical centers. The predominantly antibody deficiency was the most common subcategory of PID (29.5%). The putative causative genetic defect was identified in 1014 patients (33.1%) and an autosomal recessive pattern was found in 79.3% of these patients. Among the genetically different categories of PID patients, the diagnostic rate was highest in defects in immune dysregulation and lowest in predominantly antibody deficiencies and mutations in the MEFV gene were the most frequent genetic disorder in our cohort. CONCLUSIONS During a 20-year registration of Iranian PID patients, significant changes have been observed by increasing the awareness of the medical community, national PID network establishment, improving therapeutic facilities, and recently by inclusion of the molecular diagnosis. The current collective study of PID phenotypes and genotypes provides a major source for ethnic surveillance, newborn screening, and genetic consultation for prenatal and preimplantation genetic diagnosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) are a heterogeneous group of genetic immune disorders. PID patients suffer from a variety of complications. The aim of this study was to determine the infectious and non-infectious complications among PID patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS This retrospective cohort study was performed on recorded data of 202 PID patients who were diagnosed with eight major categories: common variable immunodeficiency (CVID), X-linked agammaglobulinemia, hyper-IgM syndrome, hyper IgE syndrome, chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), ataxia telangiectasia, hereditary angioedema and leukocyte adhesion deficiency. For all patients, infectious and non-infectious manifestations and laboratory data were collected in a comprehensive questionnaire. RESULTS Infectious complications were more frequent than non-infectious complications. Pneumonia and otitis media were the main infectious problems in PID patients, especially in patients with antibody deficiencies. Among the non-infectious complications, splenomegaly and hepatomegaly were the most common complications in PID patients, and were more commonly seen in CGD patients than others. Splenomegaly, hepatomegaly and autoimmunity were the most common findings in CVID patients. A significant correlation was observed between diagnostic delay and bronchiectasis in CVID patients (p = 0.042). CONCLUSIONS PID patients are at risk of multiple infectious and non-infectious problems. Timely diagnosis of PIDs not only improves their outcome and quality of life, but also helps prevent these troubling complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Defects in B cell class switch recombination (CSR) are a heterogeneous and yet very uncommon group of disorders which all have a genetic basis uniformly leading to hyper IgM (HIgM) syndrome. Due to the rare frequency of these conditions, a very small number of case series have been conducted on the affected patients. OBJECTIVE To shed some light on the morbidity and mortality regarding a relatively large cohort of diagnosed CSR defective Iranian patients. METHODS This study was performed using demographic information, laboratory findings and clinical data obtained from an observation of 33 Iranian patients of different ethnicities referred from all medical centers of Iran to the Children's Medical Center Hospital, pediatrics center of excellence, Tehran, Iran; of which 28 were males and 5 were females. RESULTS Our patients mean age at the onset of symptoms was 1.8 ± 0.2 years; they were diagnosed with a mean delay of 4.4 ± 3.3 years and followed for a mean time of 5.7 ± 4.8 years. The most prominent clinical features observed were multi-organ infections, affecting mostly the respiratory system, followed by lymphoproliferative and autoimmune disorders, the latter being of much higher frequency (44%) in our study than the reported frequency in previous reports. The three year survival rate for our enrolled patients was 67.9%. CONCLUSIONS Based on our findings, the most common cause of death in HIgM patients is respiratory failure. The molecular mechanism behind the nature of the CSR defective patients in Iran is more compatible with autosomal recessive mutations rather than X-linked HIgM syndrome which is in contrast with other large cohorts of patients with CSR defect.
