🎉Breaking news: Scientists discover kids with Long Covid have #microclots (who knew blood clots could be fun-sized?!) 🤡. This "study" is so fresh, it hasn't even been peer-reviewed—because who needs verification when you have microfluidic assays to throw around like confetti? 🎈🔬

Heliox: Where Evidence Meets Empathy 🇨🇦
Researchers are now developing smartphone apps that can do preliminary assessments of microcirculation using your phone's camera with a simple lens attachment.
Machine learning systems are already being trained to analyze these images with superhuman accuracy.

"A new study suggests that exercise doesn’t clear microclots in people with Long COVID—it just fragments them into smaller ones. These smaller clots are linked to increased inflammation and impaired oxygen transport, which may help explain post-exertional malaise (PEM) and post-exertional symptom exacerbation (PESE)—a worsening of symptoms after even mild physical or mental effort."
"Researchers observed these microclot and inflammatory changes even after submaximal exertion, highlighting the need for caution when recommending exercise-based therapies."

#SARSCoV2 persistence in platelet-producing lung cells:
"Accordingly, in all samples analyzed, circulating MK [megakaryocyte] in Long COVID sheltered both Spike and SARS-CoV-2 ssRNA [single-stranded RNA], but also dsRNA [double-stranded RNA] suggestive of viral replication. [...] Platelets microclots were detected in all tested Long COVID patients."

Long COVID still has no cure — so these patients are turning to research.
With key long COVID trials yet to yield results, people with the condition are trying to change how clinical trials are done.

>>We conclude that the presence of fibrinaloid #microclots can indeed significantly account for the symptoms of #POTS associated with #LongCovid (and likely other syndromes), just as they can for other symptoms, post-exertional symptom exacerbation, and the generation of autoantibodies<<
Possible Role of Fibrinaloid Microclots in Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS): Focus on Long COVID - PMC

New research on severe #microclots and #POTS!
“We here develop the argument, with accompanying evidence, that fibrinaloid microclots, through their ability to block the flow of blood through microcapillaries and thus cause tissue hypoxia, are not simply correlated with but in fact, by preceding it, may be a chief intermediary cause of POTS, in which tachycardia is simply the body’s exaggerated ‘physiological’ response to hypoxia.”
Many people with #LongCovid feel tired, unwell and in pain for lengthy periods after exercise, and researchers say they now know why. .
Experts say they have evidence that biological changes are to blame, such as severe #MuscleDamage, #mitochondrial problems and the presence of #microclots in the body.

We're learning more and more about long covid.
Plummeting levels of certain hormones may explain the fatigue and brain fog. "Microclots" in the blood may play a role. And the virus's ability to persist in our bodies may be crucial.

Almost four years after the first cases of long covid emerged, we are accumulating evidence about the physiology behind this complex condition – from microclots to viral persistence

MicroClots
How microclots and platelet pathology may be useful in clinical investigations:
Not only (simply) the size/numbers of micro clots present in healthy vs Long COVID but their:
- content
- activity
- biochemical characteristics
We cannot ignore the role of hyperactivated platelets in endothelialitis.
Ultimately, platelet pathologies and microclots are fundamentally involved in developing thrombotic endothelialitis.
