"This week
Science published a major multinational, prospective study of
people with Long Covid and controls, as shown below. A unique aspect was to
systematically assess nearly 6,600 proteins in the blood, across 268 blood
samples, and see which ones were associated with Long Covid at 6 and 12 months.
This is an agnostic type exploration, hypothesis-free, letting the data talk—
seeing what bubbles up as potentially important, without preconceived bias.
The findings included lower levels of anti-thrombin III, higher levels of
thrombospondin-1 and von Willebrand factor—known factors associated with blood
clots. Using machine learning to model the data for predicting Long Covid at 6
months, activation of the complement system was identified, and verified by an
independent data set for predicting Long Covid at 12 months."
