Immunodefeciency disorders ( 50 Questions)
Immunodeficiency disorders result from a weakened immune system, not an overactive one. In overactive immune responses, autoimmune disorders may occur.
While some immunodeficiency disorders have a genetic basis, not all cases are caused by genetic factors. Some immunodeficiency disorders can be acquired later in life due to infections, medications, or other factors.
The correct answer is c. Immunodeficiency disorders can lead to an increased susceptibility to infections. Immunodeficiency disorders are characterized by a weakened or impaired immune system, making individuals more susceptible to infections, both common and opportunistic.
Immunodeficiency disorders are not typically treated with anti-inflammatory medications. Treatment may involve immunoglobulin replacement therapy, antiviral medications, or stem cell transplantation, depending on the specific disorder and its underlying cause.
