What is the silent Covid way can you kill you?
The study published inScience medicine translation, found thisPart of the deadly coagulation is triggered by a self-immune antibody in the blood, which attacks cells and induces clots in arteries, veins and microscopic vessels. These types of blood clots can induce features and restrict blood flow in the lungs, two things that mortally prove for covidant patients.
Yogen Kanthi, M.D., Assistant Professor at theMichigan Medicine Frankel Cardiovascular Center And a Lasker investigator to the national institutes of the National Institutes of Health's National Heart, Lung and Solid Institute, explains that similar antibodies causing disaster causes are also victims of patients with antiphospholipid disease of auto-immovable disease rare. .
"In patients with COVID-19, we continue to see a cycle of inflammation and coagulation of the amplification of self-amplification relentlessly in the body," said Kanthi, byDoctorxpress. "Now we learn that the self-antibodies could be a culprit in this coagulation and inflammation loop that makes people who were ever ill."
Author Co-Correspondent Jason Knight, MD, Ph.D., a rheumatologist by Michigan Medicine, studies antiphospholipid antibodies of antibodies in the general population for years, says it's "part of the worst coagulation that We never saw ".
"Half of the hospitalized patients with COVID-19 were positive for at least one of the autoantibodies, which was a big surprise," he said.
According to their conclusions, half of the extremely ill patients involved in the study experienced these types of antibodies as well as "super-activated neutrophils", dangerous, exploding white blood cells.
"The antibodies of patients with Active COVID-19 infection have created a striking amount of coagulation in animals - part of the worst coagulation we have ever seen," Kanthi said. "We have discovered a new mechanism by which patients with COVID-19 can develop blood clots."
They also pointed out that people with the largest amount of self-antibodies aggravated in terms of respiratory function, which even caused inflammation in healthy cells.

The next step is to identify triggers
"We do not yet know what triggers the body to produce these antibodies, so that the next step would be an additional search to identify the triggers and targets of the antibodies," added Knight.
