Janeway Immunodeficiency

Janeway Immunodeficiency, also known as Common Variable Immunodeficiency (CVID), is a condition where the immune system doesn't produce enough antibodies to fight infections effectively. As a result, individuals are more prone to frequent infections, especially in the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts. The condition varies in severity and can also cause symptoms like fatigue, poor growth, or autoimmune issues. Diagnosis involves blood tests showing low antibody levels. Treatment typically includes regular antibody infusions or injections to help prevent infections and improve immune function. Early management can improve quality of life and reduce complications.
