Bifurcations and multi-stability in a model of cytokine-mediated autoimmunity [PDF]
, 2018 This paper investigates the dynamics of immune response and autoimmunity with particular emphasis on the role of regulatory T cells (Tregs), T cells with different activation thresholds, and cytokines in mediating T cell activity. Analysis of the steady states yields parameter regions corresponding to regimes of normal clearance of viral infection ...

Autoimmune causes of encephalitis syndrome in Thailand: prospective study of 103 patients [PDF]
, 2013 Background: Data on encephalitis in Thailand have not been completely described. Etiologies remain largely unknown. We prospectively analyzed 103 Thai patients from 27 provinces for the causes of encephalitis using clinical, microbiological and ...

Glia, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common non‐infectious inflammatory CNS disease, characterized by progressive neurodegeneration and focal demyelinated lesions. Traditionally considered an autoimmune disease, MS is driven by the immune system's attack on CNS myelin, resulting in cumulative disability.

The role of tunable activation thresholds in the dynamics of autoimmunity [PDF]
J. Theor. Biol. 308, 45-55 (2012), 2012 It has been known for some time that human autoimmune diseases can be triggered by viral infections. Several possible mechanisms of interactions between a virus and immune system have been analysed, with a prevailing opinion being that the onset of autoimmunity can in many cases be attributed to "molecular mimicry", where linear peptide epitopes ...

AI-Based Decadal Predictive Analysis of Twenty Infectious Diseases in China with an Improved BSTS-MCMC Model [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 This study embarks on a comprehensive exploration of the decadal trends and future trajectories of twenty distinct infectious diseases in China from 1998 to 2021. A refined Hybrid Bayesian Structural Time Series (BSTS)-Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) model is employed, intertwining with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks to dissect intricate ...

Diagnosis and treatment of paraneoplastic neurological disorders [PDF]
, 2004 In about two thirds of cases, patients with paraneoplastic neurological disorders present to the neurologist without a known tumor. Due to the ongoing immune response, this tumor tends to stay biologically relatively benign, and therefore difficult to ...

The Laboratory Diagnosis of Autoimmune Encephalitis [PDF]
Journal of Epilepsy Research, 2016 Autoimmune encephalitis is a group of encephalitis syndromes that cause altered mentality, memory decline, or seizures in association with the presence of serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) autoantibodies (auto-Abs). An early diagnosis enables early treatments. The detection of auto-Abs is a confirmatory diagnosis.
