(Continued)*HypergammaglobulinemiaThe gamma globulins normally comprise 11 to 14 per cent of the total serum proteins, with a normal range of 600 to 1100 mg. per 100 ml. in older children and adults. American Negroes have slightly higher normal values than whites.81 , 82 Although no classification could be complete at this time, many diseases in which hypergammaglobulinemia has been noted are listed in Table 1, with an indication of the diseases in which the most marked elevations are found. High globulin values may be diagnostic clues. In one large series about 50 per cent of patients with a serum total globulin . . .
