The sensitivity and specificity of the criteria were calculated for several diseases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Because recurrent fevers were crucial findings, they were defined as the required criterion. Tonsillitis\/pharyngitis with white moss were important accompanying signs. Other symptoms associated with febrile episodes were cervical lymphadenitis with tenderness, aphthous stomatitis, sore throat, vomiting, and headache but not cough. A total of 159 (62%) patients had a family history of recurrent fevers, indicating autosomal dominant inheritance. C\u2010reactive protein levels were extremely elevated during febrile attacks but normal in attack\u2010free periods. Serum immunoglobulin D levels were high in 72 of the 199 tested patients. Oral glucocorticoid and cimetidine were extremely effective in all and 51.6% of the patients, respectively. We defined the above as supportive criteria. These criteria were sensitive and specific enough to distinguish PFAPA from other recurrent fever diseases. Raised serum interferon\u2010\u03b3 levels and remarkable CD64 expression on neutrophils during flare\u2010ups were recognized, indicating they contributed to diagnosis.<\/jats:p>\n
