The COVID-19 pandemic continues to present considerable public health challenges in the United States and around the globe. One of the most puzzling is why many people who get over an initial and often relatively mild COVID illness later develop new and potentially debilitating symptoms. These symptoms run the gamut including fatigue, shortness of breath, brain fog, anxiety, and gastrointestinal
A large randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial led by the National Institutes of Health shows that treating adults hospitalized with COVID-19 with infliximab or abatacept — drugs widely used to treat certain autoimmune diseases — did not significantly shorten time to recovery but did substantially improve clinical status and reduce deaths. Some COVID-19 patients experience an immune

Vasculitis refers to a group of rare diseases that involve inflammation of blood vessels, which disrupts blood flow and often causes damage to the body’s organs. The cause of most forms of vasculitis remains unknown, and treatments involve the use of strong medications that can have serious side effects. The Vasculitis Clinical Research Consortium (VCRC) is an international, multicenter clinical
The Genetic Disorders of Mucociliary Clearance Consortium (GDMCC) focuses on several inherited and acquired disorders that cause thickened, infected secretions to accumulate in the upper and lower airways. Its work is conducted at eight clinical research sites across the United States and Canada. During the past 15 years, the consortium has made numerous advances that profoundly changed clinical
Eosinophilic esophagitis, eosinophilic gastritis, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, and eosinophilic colitis are disorders in which a type of immune cell (called eosinophils) builds up in the digestive tract, causing gastrointestinal tissue damage. These disorders are painful, lifelong, and make it hard or impossible for people to eat many or all foods. The Consortium of Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal
