Cryoglobulins are identified as a potential explanation for the observed patterns by embalmers. • 2:07
Exploring the association between serum Cryoglobulins and unusual blood clots post-vaccination.
-
Cryoglobulins are composed of immunoglobulins and can form precipitates when clumped together in the serum. • 2:39
-
A case report highlighted the development of cryoglobulanemia and digital necrosis after receiving a vaccine in a patient with pre-existing autoimmunity. • 4:04
-
The patient experienced worsening symptoms three days post-vaccination, leading to gangrene in the fingertips. • 4:46
Exploring the correlation between cryoglobulins and embalmers clots in the context of autoimmune background and vaccine response.
-
Cryoglobulins can be present in individuals with autoimmune background and vaccine response, with significance and frequency unknown. • 5:27
-
Detection of cryoglobulins requires active searching due to the need to keep blood warm before examination. • 5:34
-
Treatment with steroids and plasmapheresis can reduce cryoglobulin levels in patients with autoimmune disease. • 5:49
