Clinical, histopathological, and radiological characterization of post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 Anna Czech Abstract Numerous patients exhibit enduring symptoms following a Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection, termed Post-Acute Sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC). The typical manifestations...

Abstract Post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) is a complex and multifaceted clinical challenge requiring to emphasize its underlying pathophysiological mechanisms. This study assessed hundreds of virological, serological, immunological, and tissue damage biomarkers in two patient cohorts who...

Molecular and Immunological Signatures of Long COVID: Implications for Diagnosis and Personalized Treatment Strategies Jorine K.N. Hammink, Tim R. van Elst [Line breaks added] Summary The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has led to an emerging health challenge known as “long...

Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) at the Root of Persistent Antigens and Long COVID Apostolos P. Georgopoulos, Lisa M. James, Phillip K. Peterson (Line break added) Abstract Here we offer a perspective on recent findings of persistent SARS-CoV-2 antigens in Long COVID through the lens of...

Acute enterovirus infection followed by myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) and viral persistence John Chia, Andrew Chia, Michael Voeller, Tonny Lee, Robert Chang Aims Enteroviruses are well-known causes of acute respiratory and/or gastrointestinal infections and...

The consequences of SARS-CoV-2 within-host persistence Alex Sigal, Richard A. Neher, Richard J. Lessells Abstract SARS-CoV-2 causes an acute respiratory tract infection that resolves in most people in less than a month. Yet some people with severely weakened immune systems fail to clear the...

Towards a cure for long COVID: the strengthening case for persistently replicating SARS-CoV-2 as a driver of post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 Michelle JL Scoullar; Gabriela Khoury; Suman S Majumdar; Emma Tippett; Brendan S Crabb New insights into post-acute sequelae of coronavirus disease 2019...

I thought it might be worthwhile to have a discussion comparing and contrasting the symptoms of an acute infection (a week or two of flu, cold, staph, etc.) and ME/CFS. Viral persistence is often mentioned in discussions of mechanism theories. I personally think there's a good chance ME/CFS is...

Abstract Introduction: The relationship between SARS-CoV-2 viral dynamics during acute infection and the development of long COVID is largely unknown. Methods: A total of 7361 asymptomatic community-dwelling people enrolled in the Test Us at Home parent study between October 2021 and February...

Assessment of the Impact of RNase in Patients With Severe Fatigue Related to Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 Infection PASC: A Randomized Phase 2 Trial of RSLV-132 Andrews, James S; Boonyaratanakornkit, Jim B; Krusinska, Eva; Allen, Suzanne; Posada, James A BACKGROUND Severe acute respiratory...

Hi I wanted to create a thread on the organisation long covid action project to keep up with what they are doing. (A lot of which worries me.) This organisation says and claims as fact that long covid is a single disease caused by viral persistance. From their front page: Long Covid is a...
