Relationship between Effusion Bacteria and Concentrations of Immunoglobulin in Effusion Fluid in Recurrent Otitis Media with Effusion Patients / 대한이비인후과학회지
The level of IgA in the otits media prone group was significantly lower than in the otitis media non-prone group, but there was no significant difference in the level of IgG, IgM between two groups (p<0.05). Bacteriadetection rate were 59% in the prone group and 50% in the non-prone group. The level of IgA in the bacterial detection group was signifi-cantly lower than that of the non-detection group (p<0.05).
