The complement-mediated AEs were considered to be caused by aggregates in the product ("spontaneous complement activation" or anti-complementary activity or ACA) or by in vivo formation of immune complexes (ICs, patient's condition related; e.g., subclinical infections or the unnoticed presence of anti-IgA antibodies) and therefore only IgG concentrates with low or absent ACA is accepted by authorities for human use. ./cache/cord-274557-2071770h.txt ./txt/cord-274557-2071770h.txt
