“Consistent with recent studies, people with #LongCOVID had problems with their autonomic nervous system. #Autonomic testing showed abnormalities in control of vascular tone, heart rate, and blood pressure with a change in posture.” 2/🧵
The results also showed that people with Long COVID had lower levels of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and increases in the numbers of B cells and other types of immune cells, suggesting that immune dysregulation may play a role in mediating Long COVID. 3/🧵

Got leaky gut and worried about Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) causing an immune response that leads to systemic inflammation? Well you should be! But let's talk about what a ketogenic diet can do to mitigate that for you. Shall we? 🧵(1/21)
A #leakygut is a condition in which the lining of the intestine becomes damaged or compromised, allowing toxins, undigested food particles, and harmful bacteria to enter the bloodstream. (2/21)
When this happens, large amounts of LPS (lipopolysaccharide) can be released into the bloodstream, triggering an #immune response and #inflammation in the body. (3/21)
What are the #histopathology image #WSI patterns associated with gene expression in cancer? Can we discover them with #AI and use them for spatial profiling and #precision medicine?

Our preprint explores limitations & possibilities of #cpath for this.
biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Existing methods aim to predict expression of individual genes from #WSIs but ignore any inter-dependencies in expression across genes. We show that it is typically not possible to predict expression of a single gene due to such codependencies as shown in fig for a group of genes
To formalize this, we first used mutual information to identify groups of genes whose expression in breast cancer patients are significantly inter-dependent and form the basis of important cancer and biological pathways and can be used for precision medicine.

Firstly it's very uncommon in #SriLanka but recently a few deadly cases were reported of persons who visited Adam's Peak (#Siripada) during the season.

"Every Canadian needs access to a family doctor. Governments need to step up and commit to doing what’s right for the system, instead of focusing on Band-Aid solutions."
"We need a true understanding that the best patient care is care in the community, and that in part, hospitalization for preventable illness is a failure."
I'd had we need a culture change from within and from outside healthcare.

Thrilled to share our latest article in @NaturePortfolio Reviews Immunology exploring the role of platelets in #immune mediated inflammatory diseases such as #SLE. Open access link 🔓 rdcu.be/c4ijW.
A thread
A thread
In autoimmune & inflammatory diseases, platelets get activated in response to circulating autoAbs (directly or through FcGR2A binding), soluble factors such as DAMPs or infectious agents (ie through platelet TLR7). Platelet activation often follows disease activity -> biomarker
Upon activation platelets release pro-inflammatory molecules (ie, IL1b), express glycoproteins that promote the interaction with immune cells (ie P-selectin or CD40L) and release plat-derived extracellular vesicles which enhance the inflam « signal » thorough body & organs.

Sharing our latest paper in @Nature (nature.com/articles/s4158…), in which we ask whether non-hospitalized #COVID19 could change the status of the #immune system in ways that then impact future responses to a distinct perturbation, the #influenza #vaccine, long after recovery👇

Our immune system is essential in keeping us healthy.

First, some background.
Everybody knows that the immune system is hugely complex.
#singlecell sequencing has (arguably) done more for the immune system than for other health applications.
Via #scRNAseq, we discovered & characterized crazily detailed immune cell phenotypes.

This is the most straightforward explanation for chronic symptoms in at least a subset of #LongCovid patients. Partly b/c if the #virus is still present its activity can directly contribute to other phenomena also being documented in LongCovid
2/ Persistence of #SARS-CoV-2 in tissue could lead to shedding of spike protein into blood, which can catalyze the ongoing formation of microclots and hyperactivated platelets
3/ Persistence of SARS-CoV-2 can lead to ongoing downregulation of interferon and/or T cell signaling by the virus, creating an optimal atmosphere for activation of EBV or other #pathogens normally controlled by such immunity
