Summary
This study in Best Practice & Research Clinical Rheumatology aimed to determine the systemic effects of surgical mesh implants. The study looked at patients referred to an autoimmunity clinic between January 2014 and December 2017 and concluded that mesh implants may increase the risk of developing autoimmune diseases by acting as an adjuvant (increasing the body's own immune response).
