[Anaphylactoid purpura in infancy and childhood (author's transl)]. 1978

F Schabel, and G Mitterstieler

The clinical picture and the laboratory data of 40 patients with anaphylactoid purpura as well as its etiology and pathogenesis are discussed. The clinical expression and the rate of complications does not differ from that described in the literature. 45% of the patients showed renal involvement, three patients had severe glomerulonephritis. Up to now there is a lack of typical laboratory tests to confirm the diagnosis of anaphylactoid purpura. This study suggests neutrophilia and initial creased fibrin/fibrinogen split products in serum and decreased C3 levels are poor prognostic criteria correlating with appearence and severity of a complicating glomerulonephritis.

D003176 Complement C3 A glycoprotein that is central in both the classical and the alternative pathway of COMPLEMENT ACTIVATION. C3 can be cleaved into COMPLEMENT C3A and COMPLEMENT C3B, spontaneously at low level or by C3 CONVERTASE at high level. The smaller fragment C3a is an ANAPHYLATOXIN and mediator of local inflammatory process. The larger fragment C3b binds with C3 convertase to form C5 convertase.
