Antibody deficiency with near-normal immunoglobulins or with hyperimmunoglobulinaemia - what does this mean

Antibody deficiency with near-normal immunoglobulins or with hyperimmunoglobulinaemia is caused by an inability of the body to produce enough antibodies to fight off infections, resulting in frequent and severe infections. it can be caused by genetic mutations, certain medications, or other underlying conditions.

What happens during the disease - antibody deficiency with near-normal immunoglobulins or with hyperimmunoglobulinaemia

Antibody deficiency with near-normal immunoglobulins or with hyperimmunoglobulinaemia is caused by a defect in the production of antibodies due to a lack of functional b-cells. this can be caused by a variety of genetic or environmental factors, such as a genetic mutation or an autoimmune disorder, which can result in the body not being able to produce enough antibodies to fight off infections. additionally, the increased immunoglobulins can be caused by an overactive immune system, which can lead to an increased production of antibodies in response to an infection.
