A study published in Annals of Internal Medicine—led by RECOVER researchers at Mass General Brigham—shows financial hardship, food insecurity, lack of healthcare access, and other social risk factors increase the risk for Long COVID.
At a recent RECOVER Research Review (R3) Seminar held July 8, RECOVER researchers Rachel Gross, MD, MS; and Tanayott (Tony) Thaweethai, PhD, presented key findings from their study recently published in Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Pediatrics. They were joined by RECOVER Representatives Krista Coombs and Megan Carmilani, who shared personal stories and reflections about the study findings. Amy Salisbury, PhD, RN, FAAN, a coauthor of the publication, facilitated the discussion.
This year, RECOVER researchers continue to publish results from research studies that deepen our understanding of Long COVID. RECOVER studies continue, with 2 clinical trials expected to reach enrollment goals this summer.
A team of community engagement experts from NIH’s Community Engagement Alliance Consultative Resource (CEACR) is helping RECOVER meet the needs of communities most impacted by Long COVID.
During a recent RECOVER Research Review (R3) seminar, RECOVER researchers Torri Metz, MD, MS, Chengxi Zang, PhD, and Valerie Flaherman, MD, MPH, shared findings from two major studies examining the risk of developing Long COVID following a SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy. Drawing on data from RECOVER’s observational study of pregnant women and from two national electronic health record (EHR) research networks, these studies represent some of the largest efforts to date exploring the relationship between pregnancy and Long COVID.
RECOVER is funding 60+ pathobiology studies to explore how cells in the body interact with each other to cause Long COVID symptoms. These findings may lead to better ways to diagnose, treat, and prevent Long COVID.
By studying millions of patients’ electronic health records (EHRs), RECOVER researchers are gaining understanding about who Long COVID affects, how it affects them, and why some people are more likely to be affected than others.
Recent RECOVER findings provide insights into how changes to the immune system during pregnancy may affect a woman’s risk of developing Long COVID.
