In our study of 21,312 COVID-19 patients @CommsMedicine, neuropsychiatric complications & low albumin are key predictors of severe outcomes. Early nutritional evaluation is key! #LongCOVID #NeuroCOVID #COVIDResearch #Nutrition #COVID19@colemag9 doi.org/10.1038/s43856…

@VivianGahtanMD @loyolasurg_dept @LoyolaHealth @NIAAAnews @kovacs_liz @CoPARCUCD Another successful #AIRIG in the books. Thank you all for bringing such great ideas and enthusiasm today! @NIAAAnews

Excited to share our study in 977 #LongCOVID patients, identifying persistent anti-ganglioside antibodies as key in LC neuropathy, providing evidence for autoimmune etiology and IVIG benefits in reversing symptoms. #Neuropathy #AutoimmuneDisease @colemag9 medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Thrilled to share our publication @bioRxiv on SARS-CoV-2's impact on reactivating multiple dormant viruses! Our multiomic analysis of 1,154 IMPACC Network participants reveals distinct signatures & links Anelloviridae to Long COVID symptoms. Huge team effort! @colemag9 #IMPACC

You would be forgiven for thinking this is a flower... Many insects wouldn’t be this orchid mantis is a perfect example of aggressive mimicry, camouflage in which a predator's appearance lures in prey Motionless on plants, waiting for prey to arrive 1/
