So important to enhance diagnostic and therapeutic insights to educate clinical guidelines, support insurance coverage for IVIG, and emphasize the importance of interventions such as IVIG and or antibiotic use when needed.
This work is crucial for better understanding and identifying infection-triggered autoimmune mechanisms.
📢Made the news! 📢 Our PANDAS/PANS research is staying strong. Grateful to continue our important work. Happy to be a part of bridging the gap between infection, autoimmunity, and neuropsychiatric symptoms.
Our research paves the way for precision medicine approaches that address underlying immune dysfunction in PANDAS, PANS, Sydenham chorea, the neurologic and neuropsychiatric component of Rheumatic Fever, and related conditions.
@hubermanlab Does this apply to high energy ADHD year olds who like to push the Boundaries and easily get agitated, frustrated and upset. Asking for a friend 😅
Thrilled to see @BrainInflammCo spotlighting the link between childhood infections, autoimmunity, and symptoms like tics, OCD, and movement disorders! 🎯 Discover how our latest findings shed light on these mechanisms: @JCI_insight insight.jci.org/articles/view/…
Seemingly benign childhood infections (like strep throat) can cause a spectrum of neurological symptoms (in some) such as: - tics - OCD - uncontrolled movements (Sydenham chorea) A brand new paper (likely) reveals why...🧵 @NNwppn @PANDASPPN @PANSPANDASUK @EncouragePandas
@BrainInflCollab @NNwppn @PANDASPPN @PANSPANDASUK @EncouragePandas Thanks to @JCI_insight @PANDASPPN, The PANDAS Network, The BRAIN Foundation, and everyone who supports this important work to advance our understanding of neuropsychiatric disorders and PANDAS/PANS. Your collaboration makes all the difference!
@BrainInflCollab Great in theory but not in actuality. Would be specific to patient and not practical for children.
· Promotion of Inflammatory and Pathogenic Bacterial Growth: Diets high in UPFs, often characterized by increased saturated fats, sugars, and additives, can lead to changes in gut microbiota composition. This includes a decrease in bacteria that support barrier integrity
These SCFAs help maintain the intestinal barrier and modulate immune responses. High-UPF diets, which are typically low in dietary fiber, can reduce SCFA production, leading to weakened intestinal barriers, increased translocation of harmful molecules.
