  • In this World Shared Practice Forum Podcast, Drs. Adrienne Randolph and Aaron Bodansky explore the groundbreaking research findings that uncover the pathophysiological mechanism behind multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). These findings shed light on the characteristic immune response of patients who develop MIS-C, and provide insight into the development of post-infectious auto-immune disease phenotypes.

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES
    - Describe the pathophysiology of MIS-C, including the clinical features and molecular immune response
    - Describe the immune dysregulation that results in MIS-C, including the role of autoantibodies and T-cell responses
    - Identify the potential connections between SARS-CoV-2 infection and the development of autoimmune responses
    - Recognize the implications of the study findings for other related conditions such as long COVID and sepsis
