These range from a simple asymptomatic carriage up to 20 % of children , or minor illnesses such as sore throat or impetigo, to severe conditions such as necrotizing fasciitis and toxic shock syndrome .\n\nThe pathophysiological mechanisms of invasive GAS infections are poorly understood. These mechanisms could involve not only virulence factors of the bacterium ( M protein determines the emm genotype , but also super- antigenic exotoxins SpeA , Spe C, Ssa, Sme z or other virulence genes , SilC , ... Sic ), but also in some cases, factors associated with host immunity in particular in the absence of risk factors for invasive skin infection such as cutaneous effraction ( wound , burn , chicken pox ) , corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive therapy and recent surgery .\n\nThe investigators assume that in some invasive GAS infections, especially in children without risk factors, Mendelian susceptibility to infection may be involved . This hypothesis could be tested by studying the molecular characteristics of strains isolated SGA and innate and adaptive immunity in children hospitalised for invasive GAS infection with or without identified risk factors for infection.\n\nThis study could not only lead to a better understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of invasive GAS infections but also to detect in children who underwent invasive GAS genetic susceptibility to infections requiring specific care . Finally, it could also identify specific strains of SGA or molecular profiles, whose detection in practice, lead to a suspicion of hereditary immune deficiency.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD'], 'maximumAge': '15 Years', 'minimumAge': '1 Month', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Children hospitalized for invasive or non invasive GAS infection', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age ≥ 1 month to \\<15 years at the time of inclusion\n* Group 1 : Children hospitalized for invasive GAS infection\n\n * Subgroup 1A ( N = 75 ): Children with invasive infection without known risk factor .\n * Subgroup 1B (N = 75) : Children with invasive infection with known risk factor .\n\nGAS Invasive infections are defined by:\n\na) Proved infection : Bacteriological isolation of S. pyogenes from a liquid or a normally sterile site, except from a blister of a simple erysipelas, without necrosis .
