背景情况:
- 在SARS-CoV-2感染后的急性后续症状 (PASC) 与多发性硬化症 (MS) 症状有相似之处.
- 针对普通人群开发的PASC评分在MS患者中进行了评估,这些患者有不同的感染史.
研究的目的:
- 研究患有多发性硬化症的个体中PASC的患病率和特征.
- 根据感染史,评估PASC得分在多发性硬化症队列中的有用性.
主要方法:
- 来自北美多发性硬化症研究委员会 (NARCOMS) 登记册的受访参与者.
- 根据感染史分类参与者 (COVID-19,非COVID-19,两者,或未感染).
- 根据持续的新症状和NIH RECOVER研究标准的12分或更高的得分来定义PASC.
主要成果:
- 在2927名参与者中,10%的参与者最近有COVID-19,29.1%的参与者最近没有COVID-19,8.4%的参与者有两种情况,52.4%的参与者没有感染.

COPD: Pathogenesis and Clinical Features
230
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a group of lung conditions that progressively worsen over time, including chronic bronchitis and emphysema. This cluster of diseases collectively leads to a gradual and irreversible decline in lung function over time.
The primary cause for the onset of COPD is cigarette smoking and exposure to air pollution. These hazardous factors initiate a chain reaction within the lungs, resulting in chronic inflammation, damage to the airways, and a...

Understanding the variety of primary symptoms and systemic complications that characterize chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is crucial for healthcare professionals.
Symptoms of COPD can be classified as primary or systemic. Primary symptoms relate to reduced airflow, while systemic or extrapulmonary symptoms relate to COPD's broader impact on the body.

Myasthenia Gravis: Overview and Treatment
1.2K
Myasthenia gravis is a neuromuscular transmission disorder characterized by weakness and increased fatigability of skeletal muscles. It is an autoimmune disease affecting approximately one in 2000 people, where antibodies against the α1 subunit of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are produced.
These antibodies interfere with the function of the nicotinic receptors in three ways: by binding to the receptor and disrupting acetylcholine binding; by causing cross-linking of receptors which...
