Abstract
⺠We measured anti-EBNA-1 IgG titers in 107 patients with hereditary angioedema. ⺠High anti-EBNA-1 levels strongly correlated with frequency of upper airway attacks. ⺠High anti-EBNA-1 levels correlated with the consumption of C1-inhibitor concentrate. ⺠Underlying mechanisms of upper airway attacks may differ from that of other types of attacks. ⺠Anti-EBNA-1 IgG levels may be suitable for the prediction of upper airway attacks.
