Table 2.

The immune deficiency and dysregulation activity (IDDA2.1) score

Parameters (for grading 0–4°, see below1; line titles serve as examples)
1 Autoimmune (AI) cytopenia
2 Hemophagocytosis | HLH (according to clinical AND lab criteria of the HS)
3 Enteropathy | IBD
4 Lymphoproliferation | splenomegaly | hepatomegaly
5 Parenchymal lung disease | LIP | GLILD
6 Skin or eye manifestations | eczema, uveitis, alopecia, vitiligo, other
7 Granulomatous disease in any organ (except GLILD)
8 Endocrinopathy | IDDM, thyreoiditis, other
9 Arthritis | other musculoskeletal
10 AI-hepatitis | cholangitis | pancreatitis
11 Glomerulonephritis | nephropathy, tubulopathy
12 Neurologic manifestations of immune dysregulation | CNS autoimmunity, inflammation, vasculitis
13 Failure to thrive | malresorption, wasting
14 Severe infections | opportunistic (excl. chronic infestation, see below)
Other factors and symptoms (will multiply or add to the IDDAscore)2
15 Karnovsky / Lansky Performance Scale (%)
16

Hospitalization

(days out of 100 days; including day clinic stays, excl. intensive care unit [ICU])

17

Mechanical ventilation or other ICU measures

(days out of 100 days; except elective procedures)

18 Immunoglobulin substitution therapy | hypogammaglobulinemia
19 Any relevant chronic or recurring infestation/infection (e.g., Norovirus, EBV…)
20 Any other organ dysfunction / malady (e.g., cardiomyopathy, kidney failure, allergies…)
21 Nutrition / dietary status and habits
22 Malignancy (separately noted, not added to numeric score)

Formula for IDDA2.1 score total (Excel® format)

 = (SUM(line1:line14) + IF(line16 < 40;line16*0.1;4) + IF(line17 < 10;line17*0.8;8) + SUM(line18:line21))*IF(line15 > 29;150/line15;6)

1, grading for lines 1–14: 0, absent; 1, mild, transient, not requiring treatment; 2, moderate, intermittent therapy needed; 3, severe, continuous therapy needed; 4, life-threatening, refractory, irreversible

2, lines 15–17 are percentages, lines 18–21 are scored as follows: line 18 (0, no; 2, sporadic; 3[iv], regularly IVIG; 3[sc], regularly SCIG); line 19 (0, no; 1, asymptomatic infestation; 2, oligosymptomatic recurring infection; 3, recurring symptomatic infection requiring on/off treatment; 4, chronic infection requiring permanent treatment or refractory infection, only score worst if more than one microbial agents are relevant); line 20 (e.g., hepatopathy, cardiomyopathy, kidney failure; please quantify if possible: 0, no organopathy; 1, mild transient dysfunction; 2, chronic mild dysfunction; 3, moderate-severe dysfunction; 4, clinically compromising dysfunction requiring treatment or replacement therapy, only score worst if more than one organ is involved); line 21 (0, normal; 1, modified disease-adjusted; 2, part-formula medically advised; 3, tube-feeding and/or full-formula or partial parenteral nutrition (irregularly); 4, total parenteral nutrition)
