Abstract
Background Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an excessive immune activation syndrome. The genetic studies on every patient diagnosed with HLH recently became a standard of care. The likelihood of identifying a gene mutation is highest in the youngest patients. Results [Four HLH patients had changes in the following five genes](mailto:peter.fritsch@medunigraz.at): [NLRP1 (c.923G>A)](mailto:peter.fritsch@medunigraz.at), [DOCK 8 (Dedicator of Cytokinesis 8) (c.3067A>G)](mailto:peter.fritsch@medunigraz.at), [AIRE gene (c.10G>A) and one in the RNASEH2B (c.649T>C)](mailto:peter.fritsch@medunigraz.at), [PSTPIP1 (c.1213C>T)](mailto:peter.fritsch@medunigraz.at). No mutations in genes previously associated with HLH syndrome were found. Conclusions [The described cases show that genetic analysis is helpful for the diagnosis of HLH in pediatric patients. The functional analysis of a putative mutation is essential for understanding the pathological mechanism; while not every change in DNA might be responsible for the disease. Each patient might have different mutations; however, they all develop the same clinical outcome. Disruption at different levels can result in a similar picture.](mailto:peter.fritsch@medunigraz.at)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
