Predicting post-vaccination autoimmunity: Who might be at risk?
Authors: Alessandra Soriano, Gideon Nesher, Yehuda Shoenfeld Abstract Vaccinations have been used as an essential tool in the fight against infectious diseases and succeeded in improving public health. However, adverse effects, including autoimmune conditions may occur following vaccinations (autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants – ASIA syndrome). It has been postulated that autoimmunity could be triggered or enhanced by […]
Current Safety Concerns with Human Papillomavirus Vaccine: A Cluster Analysis of Reports in VigiBase
Authors: Rebecca E. Chandler, Kristina Juhlin, Jonas Fransson, Ola Caster, I. Ralph Edwards, G. Niklas Norén Abstract: Introduction A number of safety signals—complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS)—have emerged with human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines, which share a similar pattern of symptomatology. Previous signal evaluations and epidemiological studies have largely relied on traditional methodologies and signals have been […]
Immunological studies of cerebrospinal fluid from patients with CNS symptoms after human papillomavirus vaccination
Immunological studies of cerebrospinal fluid from patients with CNS symptoms after human papillomavirus vaccination Highlights •32 patients with prolonged CNS symptoms after HPV vaccination were studied. •CSF levels of IL-4, IL-13, IL-17, IL-8 and MCP-1 were elevated. •CSF levels of PDGF-bb and IL-12 were decreased. •Antibodies to GluN2B-NT2, GluN2B-CT and GluN1-NT in CSF were increased. […]
