Abstract Objective Although SARS-CoV-2 primarily targets the respiratory system, there is evidence that it can also infect the central nervous system, especially in children, leading to neurological symptoms and long-term consequences. It is imperative to summarize the possible mechanisms, main...

My son, 13, with Long Covid and polyneuropathy has been receiving intensive immunoglobulin infusion therapy (IVIG) since January 25. Previously Bell 10 for a year, now within 2 months it has risen to Bell 50, and the trend is rising. PEM almost no longer exists. He can hardly believe his luck -...

Full title: A review of intravenous immunoglobulin in the treatment of neuroimmune conditions, acute COVID-19 infection, and post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 Syndrome Highlights IVIG has demonstrated efficacy in over 100 disorders, spanning hematologic, inflammatory, autoimmune, and infectious...

Autoimmunity in Syndromes of Orthostatic Intolerance: An Updated Review Pena, Clarissa; Moustafa, Abdelmoniem; Mohamed, Abdel-Rhman; Grubb, Blair Orthostatic intolerance is a broad term that represents a spectrum of dysautonomic disorders, including postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome...

Abstract Objective: This study assesses response to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) in presumed autoimmune postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS). Background: POTS may be associated with autoimmune disorders, serum autoantibodies, or recent infection. Uncontrolled case studies...

Objectives: Pediatric acute-onset neuropsychiatric syndrome (PANS) is characterized by an abrupt-onset of severe psychiatric symptoms including OCD, anxiety, cognitive difficulties, and sleep issues which is thought to be a post-infection brain inflammatory disorder. We observed postural...

Abstract The findings of controlled trials on use of intravenous immunoglobulin G (IV IgG) to treat myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) are generally viewed as representing mixed results. On detailed review, a clearer picture emerges, which suggests that the potential...

Highlights • ME/CFS is characterized by skewed B cell receptor gene usage. • Upregulation of specific IGHV genes correlated to infection-related episodes at onset. • Plasmablasts of ME/CFS patients upregulated interferon response genes. • B cell receptor repertoire analysis can provide a useful...

If so, how to get it and from whom?

Abstract A patient with severe postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) received immunotherapy with low-dose naltrexone (LDN) and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) and antibiotic therapy for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). A dramatic...
