>> Jacobson's team says in their paper that "The pathology of Covid-19 is likely the result of Bradykinin Storms rather than cytokine storms," which had been previously identified in Covid-19 patients, but that "The two may be intricately linked." Other papers had previously identified bradykinin storms as a possible cause of Covid-19's pathologies.<br>
>><br>
>> According to the researchers, bradykinin storms could create arrhythmias and low blood pressure, which are often seen in Covid-19 patients.<br>
>><br>
>> Jacobson told me, "It is a reasonable hypothesis that many of the neurological symptoms in Covid-19 could be due to an excess of bradykinin. It has been reported that bradykinin would indeed be likely to increase the permeability of the blood-brain barrier. In addition, similar neurological symptoms have been observed in other diseases that result from an excess of bradykinin."<br>
>><br>
>> Increased bradykinin levels could also account for other common Covid-19 symptoms.<br>
>><br>
>> The similarities between ACE inhibitor side effects and Covid-19 symptoms strengthen the bradykinin hypothesis, the researchers say.<br>
>><br>
>> Though still an emerging theory, the bradykinin hypothesis explains several other of Covid-19's seemingly bizarre symptoms.<br>
>><br>
>> The bradykinin hypothesis provides a model that "Contributes to a better understanding of Covid-19" and "Adds novelty to the existing literature," according to scientists Frank van de Veerdonk, Jos WM van der Meer, and Roger Little, who peer-reviewed the team's paper.<br>
