SARS-CoV-2 load in the LRT and duration of viral shedding, were similar in patients with or without auto-Abs neutralizing type I IFNs. Patients with auto-Abs had the same mortality than those without auto-Abs, despite greater occurrence of renal failure and ECMO support, and longer duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU stay.<\/p>\n<p>CONCLUSION: In summary, 5% of patients with critical COVID-19 pneumonia carried auto-Abs neutralizing IFN-\u03b12, while about 1\/3 harbored auto-Abs neutralizing low concentrations of IFN-\u03c9. The detection of either type of auto-Abs did not impact LRT viral clearance and mortality, although it was associated with greater morbidity and a longer hospitalization. These findings suggest that similar albeit hitherto unknown mechanisms of disease drive critical COVID-19 pneumonia in patients without auto-Abs against type I IFNs.<\/p>\n<p>PMID:<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/39565497\/?utm_source=WordPress&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=journals&amp;utm_content=8102137&amp;ff=20241120145302&amp;v=2.18.0.post9+e462414\">39565497<\/a> | DOI:<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/s10875-024-01839-x\">10.1007\/s10875-024-01839-x<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>J Clin Immunol. 2024 Nov 20;45(1):45. doi: 10.1007\/s10875-024-01839-x.
