🔗 Communiqué de Presse :
Where spike is involved LongCOVID will be a significant possibility for vulnerable individuals
. Symptoms from newer variants might be less severe in acute stage, but LongCOVID is know not to reflect acute severity.
I have asked my @WHN collaborators their thoughts. This is an interesting indeed!

1/ Fantastic new preprint from
@resiapretorius.bsky.social @CallumThomas96 @DrMark_Faghy and co. This new study suggests that even light exercise may worsen #LongCOVID. by breaking up #microclots and triggering inflammation.

Another new preprint with
@resiapretorius.bsky.social
is available, on a technique called #Nailfold #Capillaroscopy that we think will be an important complement to #microclot measurements. preprints.org/manuscript/2... #TeamClots
One year ago this excellent paper was published

These findings suggest that PV/PIS is characterized by persistent immune dysregulation and coagulopathy, with proteomic signatures only partially overlapping those previously reported in prior proteomics analysis on Long COVID samples collected prior to vaccination availability. Our results highlight the complex interplay between immune activation, endothelial dysfunction, and coagulation pathologies in PV/PIS, while also highlighting distinct differences between these systems in Long COVID and PV/PIS, paving the way for more targeted protein research in these conditions.

Ein sehr interessanter Preprint vom Team um @resiapretorius.bsky.social und @dbkell.bsky.social, der ein neues Licht auf die hier „PV/PIS“ genannte Entität wirft, an der bisher ja oft Weltanschauungen aneinandergeprallt sind.

I am excited to share that our imaging flow cytometry microclot analysis is now done in Europe! The Swiss lab INUS Laboratories AG has the licence!

How Long COVID Research Could Change the Way We Think About Blood Microclots Knowledge of the condition’s microclots could make a macro difference.

Thank you @thewhn.bsky.social, for giving me the best mentors in #LongCovid research!
@resiapretorius.bsky.social is one of them, and everyone should follow her pioneer work in LC and blood clots! Thank you for the microscopy tips!♥️🔬
