Article Synopsis
- The study investigates post-COVID-19 (PC) and post-COVID-19 vaccination (PCV) syndromes, specifically focusing on small fiber neuropathy (SFN) and its potential link to undifferentiated arthritis (UA).
- Nineteen patients with possible SFN underwent several diagnostic tests, including skin biopsies and joint ultrasounds, to evaluate symptoms like severe lower limb paresthesia and to compare SFN positive (SFN+) versus negative (SFN-) patients.
- Results showed that SFN+ patients had lower nerve fiber density and more abnormalities in imaging tests. Over 12 months, SFN+ patients reported decreased neurological symptoms and improved joint assessments, although nerve density did not significantly change.
Introduction: Immunomodulating therapies harness the power of the immune system to combat disease. In advanced melanoma, immune checkpoint inhibitors have significantly improved survival outcomes by activating the immune system to recognize and eliminate cancer cells. In psoriasis, interleukin inhibitors effectively suppress inflammation and improve disease symptoms.
