A deficiency or slowing down of growth pre- and postnatally.

Abnormally increased size of the liver.

Replacement of bone marrow by fibrous tissue.

A reduction in the number of circulating thrombocytes.

A reduced number of hematopoietic cells present in the bone marrow relative to marrow fat.

Marked decrease in the number of granulocytes.

An autoimmune form of hemolytic anemia.

Abnormal increased size of the spleen.

Increased susceptibility to infections.

Enlargment (swelling) of a lymph node.

Increased susceptibility to otitis media, as manifested by recurrent episodes of otitis media.

An abnormally low number of neutrophils in the peripheral blood.

Phagocytosis by macrophages of erythrocytes, leukocytes, platelets, and their precursors in bone marrow and other tissues.

An opportunistic disease caused by invasion of unicellular fungus Pneumocystis jirovecii. Transmission of P. jirovecii cysts takes place through the airborne route, and usually, its presence in lungs is asymptomatic. However, people with impaired immunity, especially those with CD4+ T cell count below 200/microliter, are still at risk of the development of Pneumocystis pneumonia due to P. jirovecii invasion. Symptoms induced by this disease are not specific

An abnormal decrease from the normal count of B cells.

The presence of autoantibodies in the serum that react against neutrophils.

Chronic accumulation and overgrowth of the fungus Candida albicans on the mucous membranes of the mouth, generally manifested as associated with creamy white lesions on the tongue or inner cheeks, occasionally spreading to the gums, tonsils, palate or oropharynx.

An abnormally decreased level of immunoglobulin G (IgG) in blood.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D), also designated insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), is a disorder of glucose homeostasis characterized by susceptibility to ketoacidosis in the absence of insulin therapy. It is a genetically heterogeneous autoimmune disease affecting about 0.3% of Caucasian populations (Todd, 1990). Genetic studies of T1D have focused on the identification of loci associated with increased susceptibility to this multifactorial phenotype. The classic phenotype of diabetes mellitus is polydipsia, polyphagia, and polyuria which result from hyperglycemia-induced osmotic diuresis and secondary thirst. These derangements result in long-term complications that affect the eyes, kidneys, nerves, and blood vessels.

Recurrent episodes of ulceration of the oral mucosa, typically presenting as painful, sharply circumscribed fibrin-covered mucosal defects with a hyperemic border.
