To know the frequency and characteristics of neurological manifestations of probable immune origin occurring after exposure to COVID-19 vaccination. In addition, to pre-study the usefulness of the Spanish pharmacovigilance system and lymphocyte transformation test in establishing causality. Retrospective case study, including patients admitted to the Neurology department from January 2021 to May 2022 with a probable neuroimmune disorder.

Although the diagnosis of these ADRs can be challenging, causality algorithms and the lymphocyte transformation test (LTT) can be employed to help with the diagnosis. In this report, we present 3 cases of drug-related AP, AIN and DILI.

Extensive molecular dynamics simulations were performed, and radial distribution functions as well as hydrogen bonds between PEG and other molecules were measured. Experimental data were used in combination with the slope method to infer PEG-HPO interactions, and the interpretation is consistent with molecular simulation results.
